I'm struck virtually every time I play the game with some sort of appreciation moment. I can't possibly list all the things I love about it but the last time I played (yesterday) I had a line up of cowplants .. and although I wish they would tweak some things about them I was just watching them sway (got tickled by the swaying of the full udders by the way.. I know I'm weird) and the noises they made. While panning down to the level they were in I lingered on watching the lighting in the pool the light refraction and how it moved against the walls.
Just the animations and visuals and sounds in this game and how they come together get me every single time. I can't not appreciate it because it's everywhere.
