As a Fan of Grounded

[vX1nf1d3lXv]

I hope this is not seen as just a compliant, but as a rational feedback from a member of the Grounded fan community. If I start with the short story of the experience with Grounded 2, I'll say I'm glad to know there are so many other games to look forward to while I wait on this trickle of disappointment so far and am not to optimistic of the long wait for full complete launch of Grounded 2. What happened? Did you guys forget how to make this game or did some of you lose your passion or imagination for it? the reason I ask this, are as follows. So much hype was put out there to influence the expectation that the sequel will be better or at least live up to the first Grounded that I fell that's what you guys are riding on instead of developing up to that. It is a fact that early access to the first Grounded had way more than what we now have for Grounded 2. The first update to early access of the first Grounded gave more as well. With the Hairy and Scary update as well as the limitations and the missed growth from the great potential it is nowhere even close to building onto, from, or surpassing Grounded. I thought you people were "bringing it" since the success of grounded that you not only were going to expand on it but also open up to the community to expand on the Grounded universe even more. At first glance the Hairy Scary update is more bug fixes than it is content. For example Facing Axl is pretty much redundant it's like you trying to get people to just choose to skip it. There's nothing more than the new oversized bow and arrows for defeating him the rest of the stuff you can build or create with his drops is so blah silly and pointless. Leaving me ask why even spend the long amount of time to engage with this giant? There's no tying him into the park other than his knocked over tank, there's nothing tying him into the story there's nothing really beneficial to him at all to waste resources or time on him. This was not the case in Grounded, there we got to see more of the yard, 2 new bug bosses and way more content that said more than "See that areas over there you passed like a million times over there? Yeah!?, Well now there's a big axx spider over there now if you wanna go check it out. Whats that? what do you get? Pfft nothing much besides just a big bug to fight for a lengthy amount of time." It's like you call them drops because they are nowhere near what can be considered rewards. There not even any achievements for beating him. So plain and empty that is. Looking at what we can see so far there no build to better than Grounded even in the roadmap it falls short. All I can see that we're going to have in the end is the same old Grounded just in a park now i see a couple of new materials but even after discovering them their uses are so limited and "ugggh, really, that's it!?" Where's this "BETTER" and "IMPROVED" you hyped up? Take the buggies for example. Great addition so much potential and the idea that the different buggies will take you to new areas with their unique qualities fantastic but where do we get to take that? chomp some roots and go a few feet for some raw science? Or the orb weaver, web crawl up the side of the snack shack to the top of this A/C unit for a snail, another orb-weaver and 2 gum nodes really I grinded to get to this orb-weaver buggy to just get this? Wheres the discovery and adventure of the JR Indiana Jones' you turned us into in Grounded? Where's the Achievement/Reward we got in Grounded? So let me get this straight right, You guys teamed up with another great studio and have been working on this for three years and this is all you guys got? Really!? C'mon man wheres the game you want to make and we want to play? Really, I'm not bashing you, I love the work you did and do. I love Grounded but right now I'm just like are these body snatchers or impostors? wait their joking right there's gonna be more they said there was gonna be more. I do not expect an answer in words I am a Fan I'm waiting to be blown away like you did the first time so that means you and I both know its more than possible. Like seriously they brought me into Honey I shrunk the kids but said No this ain't that honey I shrunk the kids this is your honey I shrunk the kids on milk molers fully yolked. Thank you for your understanding and consideration. I hope you see in here many way that can help improve and build on for all of us even you to have the Grounded 2 we wanted.
