i was just about to comment this lmaoo

Rare to see respectable comments like this

It seems like the internet culture becomes more and more singular minded with time. Something is either good or bad, right or wrong, etc. People online seem unable to grasp with mixed or complex ideas/feelings.

Some people see it as supporting pokemon if you criticize palworld and other people simply don't want to criticize palworld because they want a game that can oppose pokemon. They feel if you criticize it then it won't be as good of a competitor to pokemon. Then you have the people who excuse it being a early access as a reason to not say anything, it being early access is more of a reason to point out issues so the devs can fix it. People are just very one sided in things and can't imagine having a reasonable take. I've mostly seen the comments just latch onto the lamball thing and not actually discuss the other stuff mentioned and then treat that as a big own saying "this is how pokemon fans think" it's weird.

Agreed.

Agreed, Radical isn't afraid to point out dumb shit in both sides but gives Palworld a fair shake and suggests improvements to make it its own, unique thing

Time for Pocketpair to make their own version of Sonic.

​@@GottaFistDemAll Sonic Mania all over again having fans make a better Sonic game than actual the actual Sonic team

Sonic fans are pretty much always at the verge of a mental breakdown at this point. I don't think we've gotten an amazing 3D Sonic game since Generations. Frontiers was a success, sure, and I loved that game, but after replaying it a couple of times the only substance to it there really is are the boss fights and ironically the cyberspace levels that have 4 themes to them. I love the concept of open world sonic, but the formula they went with really doesn't work for Sonic.

​@manwhodoesthings Cyberspace is a neat idea that I like to see it evolve a bit, but the repetitive same old (3) generations assets just made me roll my eyes. At least use the "null space" assets and mix them a bit.

Honestly the morph ball in metroid prime solos every single sonic game in general

truly

Actually palworld just handled its marketing so insanely well that most people should REALLY open their eyes and ears to how they did it. They broke several Steam Records. Actually most of them.

funny considering the complete lack of origional ideas in palworld

@@gruglord9000 I mean... when are there original idea's anymore? You make ANY creature capture game, even with a alternative artstyle, and people will STILL call it a pokemon ripoff/Clone and what are you gonna do to make yourself really stand out? Especially when pokemon introduces a new half baked mechanic every game now it's not gonna be long before there will be a game for every type of creature capture can't escape being compared too. Can't make giants, can't Do time stuff, can't do type changing, can't do special transformations, can't do special moves, can't do special region/biome variants... at this rate? fine, i don't care if it copies/rips off pokemon. Anything is better than the consistent NONE effort of pokemon games these days anyway, they could use some competition to make them pick up their pants and actually start trying and making good things for a change again.

It doesn't really have much good or original, its just cuz of startlingly good marketing.

there is lol

It’s Zook and you put some goddamn respect on his name

@@Goop946 o7

That would be my boy Zook. Absolutely a top teir Skylander, and yes, I'm incredibly biased.

In the MegaMan series, there's a boss in MegaMan X8 called Bamboo Pandamonium. He didn't use a bamboo grenade launcher but he fired bamboo missiles.

maybe they dont have real sheep in Japan.

Some assume they made the Sheep roll to make fun of the Dark Souls meme that spamming the roll button solves all your problems.

​@@AT7outof10 Love the idea that this is just a Japanese devs misconception, and that japanese people overall think sheeps move by rolling

@@MrNickPresley 2DDDDDDD DOOOOBEEEDOBODEBOOOOOBEEEDOO

Yes Pokemon X and Y, famously norse, look at the beautiful eikthyr tower in the center of the nordic city Kallas.

​@@spinningpeanut all of the XY legendaries are based on the mythical creatures that reside on and around Yggdrasil in Norse mythology. Which is indeed a strange theme for France, but they also put a Chinese legendary quartet in Spain, Buddhist gods AND French Musketeers in New York and the Biblical Leviathan, Behemoth and Ziz in Okinawa.

It also means that Eikthyrdeer is kinda just "Deerdeer" lol

@@spinningpeanut Pokemon legendary themes are almost always completely random and arbitrary. The XY trio is based on the creatures inhabiting Yggdrasil, with Yveltal as the hawk/eagle at the top, Xerneas as the 4 stags eating the branches and Zygarde as the snake that gnaws on the tree's roots. Zygarde also has a double reference to norse myth by making its different forms resemble Loki's children, which are a wolf, a snake and a humanoid woman, respectively. It's a bit out of pocket but gen 4 also had time, space, antimatter and the capital G creator deity of the setting just chilling on a mountain in Japan somewhere, so I'd say from that point onward everything is fair game.

Yeah this "pokemon was the first to do everything" Mindset is not exactly a good mindset. Like Nintendo somehow owns animals and anything resembling them has to be a ripoff/copy from Nintendo because they somehow own everything. Meanwhile other games do it and because they get less scrutiny its fine? They only did it with Pal World cause it was popular :D And its only Early Access :D

@@Goremize girl be real, what u’re saying is nonsense, noone saying that, just look at the material. Most of the pall ARE carbon copy or and ugly sum of multiple pokemon, and thats not to defend gamefreak, pocket pair is just a fraud and thats all

Elden Ring is my favorite creature catching game.

​@@Fl3cheFhow do you watch a video then fail to retain anything the video said

@@Natoursofcourse i have not finished it, and ?

Direhowl honestly just looks like a typical direwolf. The design is way to generic for anyone to claim it's a rip off pokemon in my opinion. I think it's one of the odder pal to pokemon comparisons, since it seems like such a stretch to me.

​@@SilvyReacts I agree that it is unreasonable for people to just go, "This stylized wolf looks kind of like this _other_ stylized wolf, so they must have stolen the design!" A wolf is going to look like a wolf.

Based Monster Rancher enjoyer

its the usual pokemon fan argument ignoring pokemons similar premises

Well us pokemon fans are all hypocrites we just deny it. "Food mons are bad" followed by "oh we like alcremie and fidoughs evo". "Object mons are bad" followed by "chandelure is one of the best designs period". "Newer mons just aren't as appealing or good". No, muk/grimer/voltorb exist, you're cherrypicking. The truth is we all have designs we hate and we think we have to justify them, so we give halfassed and hypocritical reasons. Like how dudunsparce is quite possibly the laziest design I've ever seen, but tandemaus is cute and silly cause mice like to multiply. Or how we all hate bipedal pokemon but we all love gardevoir and charizard.

​@@darcidious99i think the difference is that the good ones have some sort of twist or something that makes it feel more unique (except alcreamie i never got the hype) . Chandelure has a cool pattern on it's face and a cool type, fidough has a fun pun for a name and a fun design, but there's bad ones. Vanillice is just an icecream with a face. Not all of them are bad but they can be bad

I mean, most Pokemon are not animal but element. That's one of the most common criticisms fan Pokemon get.

@@garbagelmao2730 yes but it still applies at times even still

I think it's more the blatantly stealing not only official, but fanmade Pokémon designs too. Not to mention the same company is making a rip off of hollow knight, an indie game.

Bro let his intrusive thoughts win

​@dura_digi those thoughts ain't intrusive, they are front and center

AHHH!

... Hedgehogs roll up in nature. They are covered in spikes. It's not a huge stretch

​​@@snufkin8940sheep are known for rolling too, it's just that more people have played pokemon than have spent a decent amount of time around sheep.

Have you never seen a hedgehog before lol they actually do roll in to a ball that's like their most defined trait other than their spikes lol

@@AHylianWarrior yeah, and it makes them basically defenceless and immobile. The polar opposite of how sonic does it

@@soulcyclone360 Same with armadillos and pill bugs, but they are often made to roll around in video games or other media because that's just a common trope. Thing rolls into ball, can roll around. It wasn't a new concept even by Sonic's creation.

Yokai Watch moment.

Yooo there is a neq yokai watch on the works so maybe

Yokai Watch deserved better man, those games are surprisingly really fun and the battles are way more involved than anything pokémon has put out. Really big shame we never got it on the Switch...

I heard about a game called Cassette Beasts, not sure about its quality though.

@@kingdisasterdracula2017 Cassette beasts is one of the best games ive played all year, whole heartetly reccomend

Pokemon should be ashamed of copying Dragon Quest and kaiju movies and now Spyro too.

just cause theres other things where sheep roll doesnt mean wooloo wasnt where they took the idea, but its a generic enough design anyway its not really a huge deal and the other ones are bad enough already

It’s the design being so similar combined with the rolling that makes it sus, not the rolling animation in a vacuum. I’m pretty sure that would be a better point to make than the “why have fantasy sheep roll”.

@@themanwithoutaplan9389 The designs look nothing alike, you people are blind.

Additionally it makes them easier to like or associate with things we do like.

Oh you mean tall mawile that has a sword and shoots fire, yeah he's kinda cool. Lovander? Haha, its like if they removed all filters on salazzle that's funny!

They mentioned that some of the modeller members of staff were teenagers, so part of it might just be out of sheer laziness/inexperience

Or it could just be a fun game, and that's why it got so popular.

@@bluetoad6848 ...why not both?

the body is cream, the pants are blue, that's about it really.

@@checkerhat327 Exactly, and the shade of blue isn’t even remotely the same. Saying it’s Typhlosion’s color scheme seems to be a bit of a stretch at that point

@@camo6465 It's not really a stretch if the only difference is a slight shade. (of ONE of the two colors, no less.)

⁠​⁠@@checkerhat327typhlosion doesn’t own the combination of cream and blue, man. It’s definitely a stretch to say they copied a color scheme from pokemon when you’re talking about 2-3 common colors, they’re not exact copies, the monster itself looks completely different, and you’re comparing it to a franchise including over a thousand monsters designs each having an alternate form with different colors. Outside of more “exotic” color schemes like the Xatu clone’s it’s just not a great point in general. Personally I think it’s a waste even bringing them up when you have blatant copies like the Cobalion one.

Matches Huisian Typhlosion.

Grizzbolt is clearly a mix of Electabuzz and Snorlax (who is clearly inspired by Totoro).

@@dse763I thought it looks more like Zangoose than Snorlax with claws like that

If Totoro is the odd but likeable neighbor who does his own thing, Grizzbolt would be the neighbor from Hell who you call the cops on countless times.

Yeah, because BOTW holds a copyright over a stamina bar.

@@addison_v_ertisement1678 the almighty green doughnut Btw keep up the good work ❤

And before that Dark Souls had stamina

before genshin was released it was called a botw clone

No stamina upgrades?

@@dsshocktrooper7523 Ranged weapons don't use stamina. If you're mining, you can generally get a full node before running out, then by the time you get to a new node, your stamina should be back. Honestly, as long as you don't pump work speed, and get a bit of weight load, you'll be okay.

The inspiration isn't copyrighted, but the actual design of it is, so something that is a clear copy of it would be infringing Nintendo's copyright. As long as it is a few minor features with different mannerisms, then it should be okay. It has to be distinguishable enough from what someone is trying to say is a copy to not get the two confused when looking at them. So yea, Pal is fine, Nintendo is not going to be happy about that, though. They fought a while, but eventually, the community just made what we asked from them ourselves, a more mature pokemon game.

Its stunning to see the reaches people make ro defend designs that are pokemon parts staples to each other. If pokemon/Nintendo was really so awful, people sure gi out if their way ti copy their stuff and try justifying it with crap excuses

@@DexDexter0 And it's stunning to me how much people froth in anger over Palworld using such legally distinct designs. The entire look of the game is obviously supposed to evoke the feeling of "Pokémon-ish" and there's no downside to getting more "Pokémon-ish" games. I get this "Pokémon-ish" game that I'm loving, and you get actual Pokémon games that you love for whatever reason. It's a win/win. Why complain? But remember that Nintendo/Game Freak has been scummy in their own ways. They were copying designs way before Palworld, pitching lies about their copy-pasting of models, hacking apart their pokedex entries into small chunks with every new game, selling copies of the same game for full price with only slight changes, and delivering full-games as broken messes. They're not the ABSOLUTE worst, but they certainly deserve to get their balls flicked a bit here.

@@keystrix3704 my love for both is about even. I've got 135 hours in palworld and had a great time despite being quite bored with it now I'm not going to pretend that it's not a mishmash of Pokemon, Ark, and Botw

@@DexDexter0 And pokemon is just a collectathon version of Dragon Quest, but people don't really mind that when saying Palworld copied Pokemon.

it’s not about being more fun it’s about being different, pokemon has been stale for the last 15 years or the like so people just want something new with actual effort put into it. it’s why everybody liked legends arceus so much, and why people are not only happy it’s getting a sequel but that the game is NOT coming out this year, it shows they might actually be trying this time, and with the new formula at that

@yourehereforthatarentyou isn't that more or less what I said? I'm not disagreeing but thats basically what my statement is referring to

Why do [people that don't like turn based RPGs] trying to explain why they prefer [palworld] over [pokemon] always have to say that [palworld] is better or more [fun]? I get it, you don't like the [RPG mechanics] in the [turn based RPG game franchise], but asking for [pokemon] to be more similiar to it is not only unrealistic, but weird and in my bad days I might even add, dumb.

This game has essentially nothing to do with Pokémon. It's an ARK clone with the dinosaur models replaced with bootleg pokemon. They're different kinds of games, so comparing their "fun" levels isn't exactly useful. That being said if you find survival crafting games fun I just... I just wanna talk, ok?

@@yourehereforthatarentyou "with more effort put into it" If there is no effort, if they are lazy then tell me, why does shiny sandyghast not dissappear in the rain? Why do sandyghast disappear in the rain? Why are there so many neat interactions and exclusive animations? Why are always new items, abilities and pokemon made for competitive? If the games are stale why are there so many people saying they changed for the worst, if they didn't change at all? Now maybe you can grow half of a brain and realise that the 7 and a half working souls inside of the 3 japanese man working on this game are not lazy because the tree doesn't look good, especially when snake's scales and robot's metal do. It's not stale, it's your impatient ass that doesn't like turn based rpgs crying because the turn based rpg games aren't actually a magic spell that will put you in the world of digimon. Just say you don't like the game. Don't say it's objectively bad cuz you know it isn't. Don't say they are lazy, say they are dumbasses that don't know how to programm on any engine that's less than 20 years old. Maybe more offensive? But much more accurate! Before saying that they are lazy and the formula is always repeating itself try to tell me what in the actual french revolution would be "a new formula", because or you will describe the most generic and boring gameplay ever or you will just describe what another franchise already does and in that case, I don't need to make further explainin'.

Pokemon fanbois don't understand copyright law.

Literally any 3D Sonic.

Looking at the companies history, yeah... and finishing early access games ain't really in that pattern.

Yeah I think he said he's a "trend-follower" and literally took a bunch of current trends and mashed them together. Seems like too weird of a mix to me but I can see how it would be fun.

@@PiousMoltar I mean, throwing shit at a wall and then seeing what sticks is a genuine method of game design. They just got lucky when they picked the traits that fulfil a niche in the market that has not been done correctly before. And I say that as someone who genuinely likes Palworld. I hope they continue working on it now that they struck gold.

I mean, look I do that with my little projects too, but the idea is to put a little more effort into making it your own.

The intention behind it sucks, but the art is just extremely well made

@@friendlyneighborhoodnoob”The intention behind it sucks”. Wtf do you mean he explained himself perfectly. He redesigned the Pal to not be so derivative of pokemon, what about it?

your not wrong

Also boobies

Well most of it is the shining UR5 engine. Its really not that dificult to achieve better grafik and performance in it as pokemon does. I bet you could do with minimal effort as long as you have the assets.

I strongly dislike the hyper realistic environments Why not just go with a simple, cartoonish textures and models, it looks weird

@@Nekoszowa They moved from Unity to UE4 then 1 year before release they moved to UE5. The gameworld in Palworld is a placeholder. Your comment is one of the reasons people have to hammer down the point that Palworld is early access and not version 1.0
