What really sells this game? I bought it and got through the prologue and a bit of chapter 1 and don't see why it has so much popularity? It seems very okay so far but nothing amazing. Loads of unnecessary dialog.
It’s a loop. Identify what the restaurant needs, what your mission needs, and what the eco society wants you to collect. Make movie, move the story along, and obtain bracelets from the eco group. Use money to upgrade gear and buy accessories. Dive deeper, for longer, and take down bigger fish. Repeat.
The story and animation are icing on this cake.
That sounds really dull and repetitive and I play games that make excel spreadsheets look fun.
What excel spreadsheet-esque games do you play, out of interest? haha
I'm betting stuff like Factorio or Satisfactory where excel spreadsheets and such are actually useful for playing the game properly.
