A kitchen sink monster taming survival sandbox game with Pokemon-like cute creatures, a handful of reaaaaally familiar designs, edgy shock factor marketing featuring gun violence and animal abuse, and enough obviously Pokemon-inspired gameplay elements that Nintendo decided to bring out all the IP big guns, from copyright infringement down to bullshit mechanics patents and claims that mods don't count as prior art. (if a modder invents something, no they didn't, and a developer that puts the same feature in a game years later can sue anyone who imitates the mod, according to Nintendo.)
