When I heard about Palia it was with the announcement it was coming to switch, not realizing it was already available on PC. The controls on switch were bad, the UI was not changed any. It was impossible to play for me.
Then I found someone who got it running on macOS. It run great, but if you check for an update it redownloads the entire game.
Excellent to hear it is coming to PS5, maybe I will be able to play again.
