Tried out Palworld a couple of days ago on Game Pass.

Not really my thing. People focused on the monster catching "Pokémon with guns" stuff, but it's still a survival/crafting/building game at its core, and I rarely ever enjoy those (there are like three exceptions total). Glad other people are enjoying it, though.

Might go back and replay Cassette Beasts at some point. Also, buy the deluxe edition with the DLC and all (I know it's small and short, but I don't mind) because the devs deserve every cent. Soundtrack as well, because it's fucking awesome.

Kind of funny how I never cared about "catching 'em all" when it came to any of the Pokémon games, but I was more than happy to record everything in CB given the right motivation.
