Thread 58272006

I find palworld to be repulsive based on the mere notion that you can hurt or basically enslave monsters like they're your tools and receive zero pushback while also being rewarded for it. My opinion has nothing to do with their seemingly cute designs, because it'd have the same fundamental effect if they looked like demons or aliens.

Thing is, edgelords can only do as much as people will let them get away with, so when they can't, they create immature fictional worlds where they can hide like the traumatized worms they are and all their narcissism is allowed, justified and/or praised. It's the ultimate fat ugly asian loser power fantasy who never received kindness or love and copes by diluting themselves into believing that that's just how things should be actually.
If Nintendo does literally anything after this, the I hope that not only do they make their gameplay better to the point of making asset flipworld utterly obsolete, but that they also lean even harder into themes of friendship, kindness and cooperation.

You havent played the game. The most optimal way is treat them like gods.

you couldn't be more right. Nor will I try it. I'll keep my money

“i don’t always pokémon, but when i do, i raise beloved friends and cool shinies”
shillworld can keep the weird edge and ripoff designs

I also have not played Palworld, but feeling superior to other people because of the fantasies they enjoy in works of fiction is kind of ridiculous. It's that sort of purity mindset that creates the worst of sjws, and the psuedo science attempt at explaining why somebody enjoys what they enjoy is a 'I have taken 1 psychology class and now know everything' level mistake.

Maturehood is realizing edgy shit has no place in our world and embracing the great virtues of life: friendship, compassion, hard work.

I’ve played Palworld and I can confidently say the only reason people want to be popular because they’re trying to feed the delusion that it’ll ever compete with Pokémon. Play Ark and don’t support that slop. Even if you hate Pokémon, supporting this game isn’t the way to combat it because you’re just telling them that they can be even lazier and steal because “erm at least it’s competition” even when it never had a chance.

I didn't read your post past the first sentence but I hate palworld because the gameplay sucks. It's the worst base builder combined with the worst monster catcher ive ever played

THIS!! Literally the whole plot of BW was “You shouldn’t hurt your Pokémon and use them as tools”

Sure they’re not real obviously but there’s something about wanting to actually hurt Pokemon that’s kinda fucked up, if not at least a bit sad. And also yea the designs are just kinda mid. Like they wanna be Pokémon but they really can’t capture what makes it so popular even while straight up ripping them off.

Not gonna lie I would argue fucking pixelmon is better than Slopworld. That atleast has some personality, even if it’s literally just a low quality mod for a $20 15 year old game

Palworld is reddit as fuck

Armchair psychologists are a plague

>>58272145
facts
the coolest monster collector outside pokémon imo was monster rancher, bc wdym they made a feature for timmy to put his parents’ car CDs, or his copy of mario teaches typing, into the ps1 and gen new monsters from them, that’s amazing

hey I'm not perfect, but the issue here is both the game and the people who enjoy it, not just my way of looking at it. You don't need to be the best chef in the universe to realize when food is rotten or tastes bad. And even if you completely ignore the way the game treats its creatures, the gameplay itself still looks like complete soulless garbage, except that instead of it being made a cynical mega conglomerate, it's made cynical mega losers.

>he thinks Nintendo will ever improve its gameplay when people still pay 80$ for actual slop
I genuinely want Palworld to win. Not because I like, I've never even played it, but because Nintendo needs to be humbled so that there's an incentive to actually improve the slop they shovel. I wouldn't hold my breath tho. It's telling that Nintendo would rather waste time abd money on frivolous lawsuits instead of putting it towards a competent game.

>>58272006 (OP)
Its okay ppalworld is fictional evil nintendo is irl cancer

>>58272533
You’re the problem

>>58272567
>stop asking for improvement and just mindlessly consume the same slop
No, you're the problem

>>58272567
No. FreakLeak secondaries are the problem. Had you fought back against those retards Pokémon would better distinguish itself from Palworld with a wholesome setting, now Pokemon can’t even claim that thanks to the deluge of rape the secondaries insist on treating like canon
You should have fought for more
Now settle for less. Buddyboy

Ark is a game that should be good in theory but every 5 minutes you feel you could be doing something actually fun instead.

Tell me you haven't played palworld without telling me you haven't played palworld. Sure the whole meme is le slave labor, but in practice that only happens if you deliberatly try to, and it's very suboptimal. Treating them well and making sure everyone is happy is how you inevitably end up playing it. The pals are filled with personality in their little mannerisms and animations, and it makes you grow attached to the little guys(or big guys, there's actual scale in the game and some of them are huge.). The fact that the game isn't purely about battle further enforces this connection. It's not about running around competing against other cock fighters for dominance, it's about surviving together with your monsters. Rather than an assortment of 5 battle slaves and a hm slave every member has their own role to play and it makes each feel more vital. One helps with ground movement, another swims, another flies, another is the main fighter, and still another helps find resources or power others up. Then there's the pals helping back at your base, who will run up to assist you if you're crafting something and smile when they finish a task. You get attached quite easily since even the weaker ones have a role, and they're all so damn charming. It's a trojan horse that lures you in with the promise of memes and edgy humor and instead delivers a legitimately fun monster capture experience.

The "pokemon with guns" game feels more like pokemon than pokemon itself has in a long, long time.

Most posters here sounds like pseudo intellects
