I really loved the first slime rancher. Playd a lot of it. 100% it completley, from the time trials, to ranching every slime and having a automated farm. It was a unique and one of a kind game. Hearing about slime rancher 2, nearly 3 years ago. I had high hopes for this game. Its a small indie studio that has done DLC in the past adding new slime and other content. I was really hoping for a whole new enviroment, a reason for a 2nd game. This just feels like knock off slime rancher 1. Looks the same, Slimes are less creative and more akin to animals. The unique slimes are gone (might not be in the game yet since early access). The map feels to squished and small. Slime rancher 1 had big open areas, different biomes. This game has those, just in a much smaller size. The lore of this being on the same planet is ok? but it just makes me wonder, is this game needed? or could it have been a dlc? We traveled to different worlds (farms, i cant exactly recall if there located on the same world or different) in the first game. A bit silly that we are now exploring the planet we are on. This could have just been a DLC like any other add on in the first game. But instead we loose everything from the first game, the heart melting slimes, wonderful sound track that compliments a beautiful enviroment and makes your jaw hit the floor. Its just gone. You want slimes? heres some slimes, fork over 40 CAD for early access, i just cant reccomend.
