Palworld – not only is it a real game, but it’s meant to be a pretty good one. So why then are people so mad about it? Well, there’s a few reasons…

Man I was really excited for the blood dragon-esque new far cry spinoff until the multiplayer part. This really sucks
imagine bringing up "did they copy some pokemon and just change them a little" without even acknowledging how pokemon LITERALLY DID THAT TO DRAGON QUEST LMAO
Good competition for pokemon. Healthy for the game ecosystem
Can't wait for Halo: Infinity+1
Imo Palworld is more fun then any Pokémon game in awhile. We want fun games, who cares how they made it. It's crazy how ppl wanna dog on this game just bc the Pal's are similar to Pokémon models. smh
Commentary on TLOUs contrast in between no return and game theme is nonsensical. It’s a fucking game, supposed to be fun lol…
Palworld is for sure going to be one of those games that you say, oh yeah that also came out this year, when December rolls around. (Even though it's early access)
Feeling like the only designs palworld comes close to is the "generic" mons that every monster collector has.
"online discourse"
They copied pokemon and that's based as fuck
Love the Golden Sun shout out! Playing the first one now while watching your video.
I don't think Wakerunners is a MOBA. From what people in Korea who have played closed alpha test seem to suggest, it's more of an objective-based top-down Arena brawler.
C'mon man, Palworld's success is far bigger and more important than all the manufactured drama around it.
I love you ShillUp, but referring to Jennifer Coolidge as “Stifler’s mom” in 2024 wasn’t necessary, nor was it funny. Actually, kinda sexist even. She’s had such a wild success lately and a shitty role from a shitty movie was all you could remember? Ngl it sounded very condescending. Give that woman some respect. She’s so much more than that.
Sounds like somebody needs to watch White Lotus.
palworld is great, fk nintendo, dragged pokemon franchise into the dirt.
Super Smash Bros. Balls 😂
pal world was able to fill the market that pokemon has dominated and under served for years. Nintendo has been pumping out bad pokemon games for years and this is what happens.
So stupid. You can’t use cats now because of stray. You can’t put monsters in your game because of monster hunter. You can’t cartoon animals in your game because of Pokémon (which they copied from Dragon Quest. You can’t put aliens in your game because of half life. You can’t put cars in your game because of Forza. 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Palworld didn’t copy one-to-one so it doesn’t matter.
In case anyone reads this – it's now been proven that the whole 'asset ripping' weas completely fake and made up, and was done purely out of spite and protest against 'animal abuse'. Sheesh.
It’s sad people trying to Defend a company that doesn’t care about them. Nintendo should be the only one that gets upset if they copied. Which they haven’t or Nintendo would of stepped in.
Almost all the accusations against palworld copying pokemon have been disproven at this point. The person that conveniently provided the mesh comparisons and said they used AI to alter them has come out and said he lied about it all
25:41 lol, agreed. I would beg on my knees if it meant more Golden Sun.
The fact it was even acknowledged is good news.
The game is on PC and Xbox where Pokemon will never be released. Can't we just play what we got? And at this point in time even if a kindergarten kid makes a creature out of his/her imagination, that's gonna be similar to some Pokemon too, with soo many already created. Just play.
I hope they did use AI the game is way more fun than Pokemon anyways
Soooooo fucking sick of Palworld news. Had to skip that shit. Ten fucking minutes of it, really?
