"Mom, can I play Pokémon?"
"Kid, we've got Pokémon at home."
The Pokémon at home? Temtem.
Look, I haven't played too much Pokémon so I'm no expert at the intricacies of walking around and searching for stuff to collect in order to memorize a bunch of junk to prepare for battles like they're the SAT or whatever. If Temtem is what Pokemon is like then I'm afraid this genre just isn't for me.
I like games where you have to collect things and do side quests, so I'm not sure why this thing falls down for me but after a couple hours in, I'm likely not going back. Maybe it is the childish graphics and writing or maybe it is just having to know all the strengths and weaknesses of an increasing list of lil' guys in order to win a battle that gets me enough money to buy like two health potions. I can tell that people put a lot of time into playing this game and the fact that there are other people wandering around the MMO world this many years after release is evidence that there's probably a good game in here somewhere but not for me.
The lil' guys are pretty cool, though.
