This game would have been groundbreaking 15 or even 10 years ago, but now it's a little disappointing. The environments tend to look really generic, and the animals too. It's very uninspired for a game of this scope. I know that being procedurally generated means they can't really do anything too exciting, but when they advertise 18 quintillion planets or whatever, but show off basically the same landscape in 8 colour schemes (each with generic animal analogues of what we can see on Earth) it's bland to say the least.
What's worse is there are people such as the above reddit post talking it up without any apparent source backing them up: "This blob could be anything from a foot long, to hundreds of feet long, it doesn’t just have to have four legs, and it doesn’t even need to have the same proportions." well where is this in the trailers huh...
I'm really hoping this game turns out to be good, because it looks nice, but I'm struggling to see it
Maybe they just do an absolutely terrible job at showing this game off in trailers.
EDIT: Plus I heard that it's going to be >$50 which seems a bit insane. I don't know how they will justify it, but I know that a lot of people have preordered it before even seeing any real gameplay. How many times do people have to get burned...
