Nintendo fans apparently:
As a Nintendo fan, I’m ecstatic to see someone putting Pokemon in it’s place. They’ve squandered the franchise, and it’s about time for some comeuppance.
Precisely, the rabid fans are getting on Palworld’s case for making what they call low effort garbage as if Pokémon games haven’t been exactly that since Sword and Shield, maybe even before.
“bUt At ThE eNd Of ThE dAy It’S fUn”
just throw all their stupid arguments right back at them.
No the games aren’t similar at all. but as it stands Palworld has definitely tapped into the same market as Pokémon and hopefully its success is enough of a wake-up call for them to get their shit together and deliver a game worthy of the world’s most valuable IP. Instead of 3DS games guising as Switch games.
What are you talking about?
We have tons of pokemon like games, Pal World isn’t one of them
-
I didn’t say it is “like pokemon”.
-
It’s a great example of the things Pokemon COULD be doing with side games and spinoffs in their universe, if they weren’t cowards who insist on taking a step back for every time they take a step forward.

Jesus christ, why so hostile.
They weren’t even hostile lmao. Maybe check your insecurities.
In that case didn’t Starcraft, Candy Crush, LoL, RDR, Overwatch already put them in their place?
I don’t know what you get out of being so intentionally obtuse about this. It feels like the slowest, most irrelevent attempt to troll I’ve ever seen.
I am glad other devs are making unique and interesting titles in the monster catching genre, since Pokemon has decidedly been squandering it’s IP.
Is that specific enough for you, or would you like to find a new way to feign ignorance about the similarities between the two games?
Sure but I don’t think an Arc clone means anything to Nintendo and I wouldn’t say it’s unique

What a weird world we live in
The high of internet clout chasing has done irreparable damage to the human brain.
Hate to break up the bandwagon, but the modder didn’t say he faked anything at all. He tweeted that while he originally said that the models were “exactly” the same, he clarified that while they were not precisely 1:1 without any modifications at all, they were still the same model with minor adjustments.
Some other dude then jumped on the tweet and made up a narrative that the modder had faked everything. Then this “journalist” decided to make an entire article about a tweet from some random dude putting words in the modders mouth.
Given the rest of the editorializing in the article, I think we can pretty safely say this dude is coping hard.
Holy crap, what a garbage ragebait article
Saving you a click: there’s no new info here, it’s just the same hullabaloo over the guy who made the accusations rescaling the models so they’re the same size, and the author treating it as proof they faked it all
Which, I don’t personally have a strong opinion on whether it’s faked (especially since it’s been pointed out that models made using different programs and for different platforms can import in drastically different sizes) but it feels kind of disingenuous to say that it’s faked just because of that, y’know? It’s like if an artist takes a 1440p resolution image, traces over it, and posts the traced image in 720p resolution. I wouldn’t consider blowing up the traced 720p to 1440p as “faking” it or altering the traced image.
That article can only make you dumber.
Did yiu lose IQ points reading it? I’m glad I was warned ahead of time.
It’s like everyone exists to tear everyone else down now.
50 states of the same supposed society trying to beat eachother, an economy of 300 million people trying to get mooooaaaaar than their neighbors, and the cherry on top, social media stoked resentment between the haves and have nots.
This what happens when you configure a society to compete against itself, almost everyone ends up kicked in the teeth.
Except the owners of course. They like it like this. They helped mold it into this. As long as we keep tearing each other down, their game of divide and profit can proceed.
It would be nice if we could have just said “ooh, a fun game.” Instead there are legions of people daring Nintendo corporate to sue them, not for a good reason, just to start some shit for entertainment and tear people that made a fun thing down to feel important.
And the enshittification continues.
The world is MUCH larger than 50 states and 300 million people, and Palworld specifically is an international game with Japanese publishers
Ask your family to get you a globe or am atlus for your birthday. I generally agree with the intent of your message but the US has no ties to this situation. Nintendo and Pocketpair are both Japanese companies. From the country of Japan, one of those things we call a large amount of land that isn’t one of the 50 states of the universe.
ok, im gonna lock this thread, ive gotten more reports on this one post than everything else since i became a mod.
My personal feeling on this post are irrelevant, but enough is enough. If ya’ll cant have civil discourse, ima lock that shit down. This isnt reddit, lets be better, ok?
Me not giving a single fuck about IP.
lol, internet point vs damage he has to pay up.
I will literally play anything OTHER thank Pokemon. Nintendo is a shit company, everything I’ve read about them has painted them as incredibly litigious - and that would be almost ok, but it seems to always be at the expense of their own fans. Someone organizing a tournament for some shitty Nintendo game? They need Nintendo permission or they’re getting shutdown. Seriously? This is how you treat people who used their money to purchase your crap? Get fucked.
That being said - I’ve never gotten into the Pokemon craze. It just seemed like a dumb cartoon, boring games, money-grabbing cards etc. I remember trying Pokemon Go when it first appeared, getting hype about it for 1-2 days, then abandoning it cause there was nothing to do. Nothing interesting. Nothing fun. So imagine my fucking surprise when I found a dozen monster collector type games out there that are actually fun. I had always thought I didn’t like the genre. Turns out, I just don’t like shit games and/or the lack of nostalgia towards Pokemon prevented me from wearing rose-tinted glasses when looking at their shit-colored IP.
I hope Palworld makes it big enough to buy Nintendo and turn it into what it was born to be: a game development company focused exclusively on creating games based on the Palworld franchise. Fuck 'em.
Who saw this coming? Besides everyone.
