More Than Meets the Eye

Initially, I wasn't captivated by "Once Human." From first glances, it seemed just okay. But upon learning it was a survival MMO—a genre I'm particularly fond of—I decided to give it a shot. What I discovered was an excellent game that far exceeded my initial expectations.




#### Why "Once Human" Captured My Attention:

- **A Rich Survival MMO Experience:** My love for survival games drew me in, and "Once Human" delivered. It offers a rich, engaging experience that keeps you on your toes.


- **Familiar Yet Fresh Gameplay:** The game combines elements from several favorites like DayZ, Rust, and The Division, making it feel both familiar and refreshingly new.


- **Excellent Base Building:** One of the standout features is the base building, which is fantastically implemented and adds a significant layer of depth to the gameplay.


- **Unexpected Twists:** Adding to its uniqueness, "Once Human" incorporates aspects reminiscent of Pokémon and Palworld, bringing an unexpected and enjoyable twist to the survival formula.


- **Social Play Needs Tweaking:** Playing with friends is a blast, though it's not without its challenges. The servers can fill up too quickly, making it difficult for new friends to join, which hopefully will be addressed soon.


- **Looking Forward to More:** Although I haven't progressed very far yet, I am excited about the potential long hours to immerse myself further into the world of "Once Human."



"Once Human" has turned out to be a delightful surprise, blending various gaming elements into a cohesive and entertaining survival MMO. Despite some server issues, the game promises many engaging hours ahead. If you're a fan of survival games and cooperative play, "Once Human" might just be your next big obsession.
