The latest update really ruined the game for me and here's why.
-
The spawn area is way too small, and the height barrier limits a lot of movement. The new map (in my opinion) was not needed.
-
Forest, Mimes, and other areas feel lackluster because they're now much too close to spawn.
-
They've removed several areas, like the Office (though they plan to add it back), the Moon, the Mimic Tunnel, the Hookshot Area in the Sewers, the Chicken Area, and the Water Tower
-
What made Animal Company fun for me was the exploration and the wide open spaces to mess around in but with more restricted space, Me and my friends can't really do it anymore
In summary they just removed a lot from the game and called it the "lake " update even though you barely go underwater.
