Why do they all sound like they want to scam that little girl ?? "Oh you just got here? Let me tell you how to make money by farming", "You seem like a scavenger, please clean our town for free !", "Join our guild ! Btw I'm the only one left due to unforeseen circumstances." or is it just me ?

I'd agree with the assessment, but with this caveat: The writing feels similar to other poorly translated games, I've played a few games of Chinese origin, where the translation also feels like this one before they could afford a better translator.
this game remind me of graveyard keeper where technically it's a farming sim (in a way that you manage a plot of land to gain value, a stretch i know but it's the same vibe) but really the thing that keeps you playing is that it's a crafting game with fun quest and fascinating/amusing story to follow with. The actual farming part is secondary, it's merely the official reason you're in town but you mostly just spend time vibing with the townsfolk and getting into shenanigan
Planet Crafter is a game I've played recently that isn't exactly about reclaiming a post-apocalyptic wasteland but it is about transforming an uninhabitable world into a habitable one.
@@JNJNRobin1337 grim dark is a theme often very dark as in morality is very skewed, the world often has no rules and anything bad you can think of is a possible thing to happen. there usually is no good or very little of it and if there is often you watch it die or get destroyed in a grim dark themed game. it's like a world that has no hope and is just waiting to fall apart
@JNJNRobin1337 in a sense. But not really but you can think of it as a true hell on earth type of thing. It's often one of those worlds a god would look at and destroy it to recreate something new instead of even attempting to fix it
On the topic of post-apocalyptic games and wanting to reclaim the waste, I find Fallout particularly egregious and the fact that everything you make is pre-rusted and junkified is the least of it. If I recall correctly, the lore of the setting is that the bombs fell centuries ago, yet people are still living in bomb craters. No one has done anything to meaningfully rebuild or to try and setup a new civilization. Even the fact that everything is still a wasteland is painful, since nature should have been adapting and reclaiming those lands.
not just a bomb. nuclear bombs... as in nuclear radiation... which makes it.. near impossible for the majority of nature to thrive until the radiation is cleared out... which is the case in fallout..
@@erifichun You'd be surprised what nature can deal with. The areas around Chernobyl, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki are all quite full of life. Also, the radiation from nuclear bombs doesn't stick around /that/ long. Again, we're talking about centuries here. But even setting aside the radiation issue, it's still weird that they'd be living in a bomb crater, with an unexploded bomb, that's still completely exposed, after more than a few years. The radiation is not stopping them from building things or improving their situation.
This mix of gardening and battle reminds me of Sakuna: Of Rice And Ruin, and how I have yet to complete it. I kinda boned myself at some point with no previous saves so I've been procrastinating restarting the game. It's so much fun though and rather cheap during sales. Another more on the side of making everything flourish from nothing: Wildmender. You start revitalizing an oasis and the fighting is a much more forgiving and simplified version of Zelda BotW (shield reflect, flurry parry). Supports multiplayer so if you haven't given it a try, maybe Ms.Wander would like to accompany you on that journey
Makes me think of stardew after the nukes 😂 Seems like a really good game, this could be a massive success if they expand on it I belive. I'd love to see more content on this game
Listening to you while you are playing anything (by yourself) is exactly, and I mean exactly, like listening to my own brain, and it's so weird. But hey, I like my brain, so it's all good. 👍😆
If you want a farming game where your actions help clean up the place, check out Coral Island. Your actions help with restoring the island after an ecological disaster. Just added multiplayer in beta branch.
I tried this demo a while ago, the look of the game caught my attention and it looked like it might be heavy on action - even though I am NOT a fan of "gardening" games. And I think they have altered the tags from what it was initially under. After about 20 min of trying to figure out how to do the "planting" stuff I was done. Lol. I don't think I have the patience for these types of games, not a fan... So was interesting to see the way it "should" have been played. 😊
You talked a bit about genres of games needing to do it better or iniquely enough to distinguish itself from the original. I think there are still a lot of genres that never got a fair shake out there that I'd like to see get a fully fleshed out game, but I suppose that they aren't popular alrrady ap no one wants to invest in them.
This is a slight tangent, but I don't like it when a game self-assesses itself as 'cozy'. I have come to associate it with boring and aimless (in marketing context). Which is why it's a shame when there's a cool game and I go in with these preconceptions and brush it off as slop while browsing.
I really prefer when you do these kind of videos where you already know the game and you can explain it. I think it's unfair to other games that the only view people get of it is you trying to figure it out and often misexplaining it because you misunderstand. It also feels like it's wasting the audience's time a bit by spending a lot of time trying to figure out the game and not a lot of time actually playing it and showing it off. I realize it takes more time if you have to play the game twice - once to figure it out and again to show it off - but I think that's a necessary part of the job if you want to make good content.
*sigh* I can appreciate all the reviews but...I'm soooooo tired of all these games that are either just demos or previews arn't there any good games I can actually fully play out there?!

"Your new to the underground, aren'tcha?"
I couldn't resist bringing Him up, given the context being sketchiness.

I like how this game starts you off falling off a cliff, get rescued, and then they tell you to go farm
reminds me of some of the Rune Factory releases on that front.
You have put me onto so many games.. I love it, my wallet doesn’t
Appreciate the coverage!

Green Project is a fun little game about improving a wasteland
Planet Crafter is a game I've played recently that isn't exactly about reclaiming a post-apocalyptic wasteland but it is about transforming an uninhabitable world into a habitable one.
The My Time series is post-apoc but about community and reclamation. It's pretty positive and not grim dark.
what is 'grim dark'?

Cute little game 😊.
Junk punch is as rare as steam punk games that are good like frostpunk
Is this only available on pc?
At the moment only available on PC
Isn't that basically what happens in rune factory?
Is this the Nimrod prequel?
fairly sure The name "Dada" Is pronounced more like "Day-Duh"
Play planet crafter if u want “start in desert and end with something nice”

Not gonna lie, the moving text makes me feel sick. Hopefully there'l be a setting to turn it off
Will be optimized later :)

Well, what would you call them? 🤔 Marketers can't just make up genres, you know. They have to use words the audience already understands.
