I’ve always felt like he was a great actor when someone else is directing him. His best movies happen when someone else gets him to preform instead of just him and his buddies trying it on their own.
I’d put it about the same as Stardew. There are boss fights and there are some jerk animals that are dangerous and a PITA to kill but generally you can avoid them or develop ways to deal with them. Overall it’s a fantastic game with a great sense of humor and just when you feel like you’ve done all there is a whole new mechanic is unlocked.
At least they aren’t beans. 🙏
