Cassette Beasts: Pier of the Unknown Review (Ardent Surge)
I'd reccomend this as "I love the base game and want to leave a tip", Realistically this is like 3-ish dollars worth of content?
I'm sad to have to leave this review and I want to say outright that I don't regret buying the dlc, but that's because I'm happy to support the creators of cassette beasts as the base game is fantastic.
There is precious little content here for the asking price. The new beasts are interesting and open up a lot of new strategies, I enjoyed the new fights (though they're certainly pushovers on postgame even with max level scaling), but this DLC is about a third of the size it should have been. I'd love to have seen trainer battles, fusions, or additional side quests to pace things out or have this be one part of a larger DLC. Bytten Studio, I love y'all, but this really wasn't worth the asking price or hype from an objective standpoint, and I'd like future DLCs to be more substantial in size or cheaper in price.
That being said, if you're like me and just want to support the devs, I'd reccomend this. Just don't expect your moneys' worth.
