the video game counterpart of The Avalanches - Since I Left You. Takes a bunch of inspiration from the most popular, generic shit that exists and creates something new with it. An actual postmodern game that ironically oozes with creativity, especially when compared to the masses of survival and cozy slop that pollutes the steam store.

This is BOTW but good, pokemon without the insufferable fanbase, and pretty much what any "cozy" game wants to be. And yes, it uses the unfunny "what if cute things edgy haha" joke as a marketing tactic, but this time it's actually based because it gets people mad about it for some reason.

So far, for the price tag and taking into account it's still an EA product, it's pretty solid. Basically an enhanced craftopia with a better direction and budget, with fairly good optimization and less jank (but just enough so that it's still as soul).

I'm probably gonna play more with my friends on my dedicated server and keep enjoying myself by making my pals army work on the "super hard working" setting. 🗿

the avalanches comparison is really cool, the idea of there being a video game equivalent for plunderphonics music is very interesting

the insufferable fanbase is already accruing, much to my chagrin

But yeah, I agree with the Avalanches shit, cause I love Mash-Up and vaporwave, all those genres. Collages are cool too, but in video games its usually seen as bad. Just love people creating new stuff from others.
