I've been enjoying Nexomon- Extinction so far, it's a sassy game that's quite fun to play! The game mechanics work as intended and there were only a few things which I questioned before an NPC provided an answer. Leveling up my Nexomon seems like a potential slog though, I've gotten used to experience sharing in Pokémon games; I must unlearn this behavior. There are cores which can act like an Exp Share, which is nice because there are two party members that don't need to hog a large chunk of experience! I've been juggling those cores around to passively level up Nexomon which were behind in levels while using stronger creatures to tank damage.

I appreciate the game's aesthetics because it reminds me of older Pokémon games, while remaining unique. The setting matches up with the desperate situation this world is currently in as there are settlements and camps throughout the land outside of their one big city. Humanity seems to be close to potential extinction. Nexomon Tamers are responsible for desperately keeping the wild Nexomon at bay so others can labor on in safer surroundings. I'm going to keep playing today and get further in! As the need to know what happens next is strong, I felt that similarly with Coromon too.

  • @EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted The only reason why I'm playing this game is because there are no microtransactions or any garbage associated with mobile games in the PC version. It's a typical buy once and enjoy game, I'm not a fan of the free to play model especially how many developers choose to implement it. It's scummy, manipulative generally and that's something which needs to go away in the gaming space.

    Also, I just shared my love for the catching and collecting mechanics because it's a relaxing thing to do in times of stress for me. I didn't misunderstand you at all, we all enjoy games differently.

    • If indeed the PC version is not free-to-play (which, judging by what you've said, seems to be the case), I am definitely intrigued.

      Also, I...think perhaps I mis-worded myself. I was not trying to insult you or your taste in games. I apologize if I came across that way.
