If this game were a movie instead, I would watch it and I would like it. The gameplay was good, but completely secondary for me. I played through the whole thing because I wanted story. I wanted to know what was going to happen to the grumpuses. I wanted to help Beffica get midnight dirt on everyone. I wanted to see if Wambus and Triffany's marriage would pull through.

That's not to say I didn't enjoy catching bugsnax, because I totally did. I liked that they weren't all super easy to catch. I had to do a little bit of thinking and there were multiple ways to catch some of them. And even though I had my (correct) suspicions about the bugsnax, I had a good time feeding them to everyone and making them look absolutely ridiculous.

And. Holy hell do I love Chandlo and Snorpy. I love them so much I could cry. And I did cry. And I also recorded their scene at the party at towards the end of the game so I can watch it and cry whenever I want because I love it.
