Wild take lmao. Just blatantly untrue. You're telling me a 40 dollar multiplayer side game made without Miyazaki has to reach the bar of the base game, which is seen by many as the best game ever. The base game that's so big you can spend hours and hours exploring jaw dropping areas and fighting optional bosses. The base game that took much longer to create? And they clearly have a long standing great reputation with the gaming community. Yeah nah interesting take though.
