Palworld is like video game crack to me, I find they borrowed the exact things they needed to borrow from different genres to make a really good project. I did stop playing though after the Terraria collab because I just don't give a fuck about Terraria and to me those kind of collabs detract from the overall package when you consider they could have added something important and original instead.
