Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The new Boss Monsters are also a good addition but I wish there was a more clear cut progression path, I can take on most Monsters I've seen with ease but a few are still overpowered and if they're targeting me instead of my Monsters I've got a Problem.

This new desert island survival game skillfully integrates three core elements: a wild island environment, realistic survival mechanics, and charming female companion characters.

Love how interactive and helpful the npc's can be, great visuals and I like how exploring the Island can be a fun yet challenging adventure.
