I finally cracked open Ever Oasis and was playing it for most of the week.
There's a lot of hand-holding tutorial stuff at the beginning, but once they leave you alone, the game really opens up. It's weird, every time I think that a "feature" of the game is starting to turn into a chore, the game unlocks for me the ability to hire someone in town to do some grindy task for me: like restocking shops, tending the garden, or you can even send out a team to a nearby cave to mine for items or collect monster drops.
It also brings back a lot of that nostalgia for me of playing SMB3 for the first time, getting my butt kicked in the desert world one sunny morning. Lots of cool Saturday morning vibes, but that's probably just me =)
