I propose 2024 is the year of early access games boycott.

Bring back completed games only.

    Same. I love both, but when I purchased craftopia I was funding the development of craftopia, not palworld. They’re a small company so I kinda get it, but it still has me concerned that they’re not going to properly finish craftopia.

      I think it unfortunately just comes down to money. Craftopia wasn’t popular enough to pay the bills to finish it.

      We’ll see what happens with palworld. If they abandon it too then we’ll know they’re just scumbags. But if they finish it then we’ll know abandoning craftopia was a financial need.

        I can’t say I’ve ever played Craftopia, but after hearing about this I went to the steam page to see for myself. They have released consistent large updates in the last 6 months and even since the launch of Palworld.

        Most of the reviews from people who’ve played it mention it’s getting review bombed because of this mis-information and is actually quite good.

        Seems to me if they can pull off making two games with multiple teams both which continue to have development, I say more power to them. I’m enjoying Palworld and will at some point check out Craftopia now because of it.

          I also saw those updates. I never played it so I usually just cede that they abandoned it for the sake of argument.

          I agree with you though
