Cozy MMO Palia is proving anything but relaxing for fans
Cozy MMO Palia is now available in public beta, and although fans have wasted no time getting their best fantasy lives started, there have been a few complaints.
On August 10, Palia finally entered open beta and so opened itself up to all players for the first time ever. So far, the game has received mixed reactions, with some cozy gaming fans praising its visuals, NPCs, character creator, and more.

One of the key factors in most people's complaints is that the game feels as if it's "lacking" in some way. The MMO lets players inhabit a gorgeous fantasy world as they find somewhere to live, craft, fish, and meet the locals - but this isn't quite enough for everyone. "Game feel is really important and Palia is really lacking in it," one Reddit user says.
"Catching bugs and fish, cutting trees, breaking rocks, and hunting [is] what we're going to be doing for the majority of our time in Palia and none of it really feels good." The same user then elaborates further adding: "Red Dead Redemption 2 does hunting and fishing better than Palia. Animal Crossing does bug-catching better than Palia. Valheim and New World did Logging and Mining better than Palia."
"Why did they deliver us an early alpha and call it open beta?," another disappointed Reddit user posts, before explaining that they find "hunting has no variety," "the quests are vague and directionless," and the game's housing and multiplayer are severely lacking at this stage.
On a more positive note, there are also a lot of good things players are saying about Palia. For instance, this Twitter user has shared a screenshot of a dog with the caption:
