It's fine but there is a lot of repetitiveness which I suppose is par for the course with this genre. There's a lot of grinding relationship points with the villagers primarily by cooking and hosting meals and this is how you unlock a lot of the features and upgrades.(more land, abilities, livestock etc)
After I finished I don't see myself coming back any time soon.

The reviews are rough. https://www.metacritic.com/game/t...ings-game/

Typically that means it'll go lower; I'll wait.

Its amazing to me that games this bland and repetitive even get made in the first place.

like who is funding this? this is just slop that should be sold to the whales on mobile for free (with tons of paid bullshit dlc)
