Why you can trust GamesRadar+
Let’s get this straight. We’ve been shipwrecked, we’re forced to run the only farm on the island - and we’re the only ones visibly purchasing anything from anyone, which means that we’re single-handedly maintaining this island’s economy? That’s a lot of pressure. Then, to rub sea salt into the wounds, other people gradually arrive and move onto the island out of choice, and at no point does anyone say “Hey, where were you headed before the shipwreck? Perhaps I can give you a ride?” Oh no - it’s all “Don’t be so eager, that turnip you gave me wasn’t all that great.” Lazy, ungrateful jerks.
