This is what an open-world pokemon game should have been. Not the buggy disappointing mess GameFreak gave us for 2 generations.

Combat is real time, and you can't really choose which move your pal uses. You fight alongside them at the same time with your own weapons and need to dodge the flames/tornados/electricity as well.

It's hardly even a survival game though, more just a crafting game. You don't need to worry much about food and thirst isn't a thing. I get so many berries that everyone can survive off that. Hunger almost shouldn't even be included as it's more of an annoyance than a thing someone needs to actually focus on and worry about.
