Why I Like Palia. 🥰
👍Pros :
1.) One of the quests was to give the locals gifts after moving in. ❤️
2.) I love the balance between leisure play and the plot. On my low spoon days I can forage, work on expanding and decorating my new home, or work on my garden. But I also have an overall plot that I’m slowly chipping away at, and side quests to help the villagers.
3.) I’m not the even close to good when it comes to aiming, which is why I’ve sucked and quit so many games beforehand. It also makes my hand hurt using them both in awkward positions to hit multiple buttons, so I really enjoy that hunting is not an essential to the game. Fur that’s needed for recipes can be bought, or you can ask locals and friends if they have any too. 😌 I struggled, a lot, but i was able to get the fur I needed on my own! I’m so flipping proud.
4.) I cannot die (if you go too far into the water it resets you back to the closest piece of land you were on), I do not need to guard or worry about attacks on my home/supplies, and the local chat is friendly and helpful when I get stuck and need help. I bought a few games that were on sale and I haven’t even opened them because I keep coming back to Palia since it has any and everything I need, regardless of where my pain and fatigue are at that day. ❤️
5.) Did I mention it’s also FREE?!?
🤔Cons:
1.) My eyes hurt from playing so long. 😅
