Nov. 2024

I loved pokemon, and still love it. I also like survival games. This is the best of both, creature collector and survival. Nintendo should take notes, not lawsuits.

Sept. 2024

Palworld is a very good and fun game. As the tags says, its a open world survival creature collecting game. Now nintendo is suing Pocketpair on the basis of PATENT infrigement. NOT COPYRIGHT; patents. They're not coming for the Pal's design, but for gameplay elements. In the last year, they filed patents for many of these gameplay mechanics. And now they're coming to sue Pocketpair. While this game has magic creatures, it mostly resembles a classic open world survival game; you collect wood, rocks, everything to craft armor, weapons, equipment in general. You build yourself, your base, and your team of magic creatures to fight bigger and stronger enemies. What's there that is in common with nintedo games? The creature collecting. But Creature collecting isn't a gameplay mechanic; it's a GENRE. Digimon, Temtem, Coromon, Cassette Beasts, many more; these are all Creature Collecting games. A genre cannot be patented. If the developers of the first survival games had patented their systems, none of the great survival games we know would have been developed. Stuff like Minecraft, Terraria, Subnautica, and many more. This game doesn't play like nintendo games. It's an action game, it's not turn based! You also fight as your character himself, not just watch creatures fight for you! What nintendo is doing here is evil and greedy. They're abusing the legal system to try and take down someone that isn't even their competitor. Palworld doesn't share a platform with their games. They're literally on separate markets. This game is a good game, and it's very different from those others. It's much more of a survival open world game, with Creature Collecting and base building and resource automation. Out of all the creature collecting games that cloned nintendo's games, Palworld really isn't it. But it's a good game, it's fun, it was ever since its first release. It's still in active development, and gets updated regularly. Its developers focus on the player's fun, and have greatly succeded. I trust them to keep doing a good job, if they're not stopped by this legal abuse coming from greedy old talentless people that have kept making the same stale game for decades.

Sept. 2024

Nintendo is jealous they can't produce a solid 60fps experience with little to no bugs and frame rate drops with a team 100x larger than palwords dev team. And no its not a Switch hardware issue since TOTK runs very well with little framerate drops and bugs for such a massive open world game on their own console LOL Support Palworld and support competitive titles that will push Game Freak to not release trash!

Jan. 2024

Some will call this a Pokemon rip off, I'd argue this game capitalises on Pokemon's lack of innovation and change to bring people the game they wish they had but never got. There is clear inspiration from other titles but that doesn't have to be an inherently bad thing, no matter how you view the originality you cannot deny that the game is simply... fun. Which at it's core is all a game should be.
