Convincing friends to play this game with me is pretty difficult with the current reviews on steam. People are already skeptical of a pokemon clone, without a rave review what is gunna convince them this is worth their time over pokemon? Especially when the price is currently around £30 and I've heard it's going up and there is a planned paid battlepass on top of that. I really love this game and have sank 400 hours into it and would love to revisit it with a friend or two, but i likely won't because no one wants to risk picking up right now. The battle pass needs to go (or something similar) to change the reviews and get people who've never played excited about the game. Having poor reviews days before release is not a good look.
