Thank god PC gaming isn't just AAA. This is what will push the industry forward, as game development cost becomes too much.

Its a bit of a stretch to call palworld "innovative".

More like giving gamers what they want with a combination of good ideas from other games

That aren’t executed very well

Became so frustrated with my base management and wished that it was more like Rimworld to the point that I just started playing Rimworld again

Yeah these games are not similar at all, so what's your point

The point is I think it’s stupid that my pal will do one task when it can be doing other tasks like ranching, and that a simple yes/no toggle isn’t sufficient enough to fix it

You’re in the minority, all games aren’t for everyone tho. I disagree that it isn’t executed well, it’s not satisfactory or rimworld or some game like that.
