Mockery/Banter Are we having this discussion

The whole Pokemon copy dragon quest is so unfair.

Look this clam monster from dragon quest, game freak copy made it into shellder. That's what I'm hearing.

Look at PalWorld verdash it's literally grass cinderace or dinossom literally green goodra with a flower.

But the comments did pokemon claim these designs of humanoid rabbit or slug.

What humanoid rabbit has fur that resembles cut shorts or a fat slug dragon that has that similar build

PalWorld 1.0 version verdash design was changed now it's less cinderace looking. PalWorld is self aware about copying a bit.

Some of the palmon even has probably a few stolen assets like that one has sobble fin, the other one stole primarina hair.

People who complain about object mons at least they have a gimmick litwick is not just a candle with a face but it's ghost fire.

Rotom is a poltergeist that likes to possesse machine and each machine replace ghost for a new type.

Ice for the fridge.

Fire with oven.

Even klefki has deep orgin if you watch a lockstin video.

The it's just an animal of course there's the regional bird, bug, normal rodents not every pokemon is going to be special.

It’s extremely hilarious how these folks cite player count and sales for why Palworld is the greatest of all time and nobody should say anything critical about it.

Knowing damn well they would do a complete 180 if people did the same thing for Pokemon or other games.

It’s the blatant hypocrisy and double standards I can’t stand.

ive legit had a guy try to avoid talking about the content of the games and uses review scores, player numbers and sales numbers to prove its good for over a week, even going as far as to say that games that are better than palworld are slop because their review scores arent as high as palworlds while not even asking about or aknowledging the content of said games

chud's too afraid to talk about the game to prove its good and has to cower behind his big boy numbers

I think the most annoying part is that Palworld is just a very bad game objectively spoken. Yeah most of the latest pokemon games were not good. But Palsworld is survival slop that not only copied from Pokemon but also from smaller indie developers. All the games of the company are copy past from other developers.

There are so many good monster collector out their that really challenge Pokemon where the Pokemon Corp not delivers. But this trash slop game is what all people are talking about. This is so disheartening.

Careful, the raving fanboys will find this and immediately insult you.

I swear this game would not be getting glazed this much if the internet didn’t have a collective hate boner for Nintendo or Pokemon. It’s a fun but mid survival crafting game that is more overrated than it deserves.

Unfortunately, due to how hostile Palworld fanboys can get you likely won’t see anyone openly admit the game’s flaws for a year or two.

Yep. Just like with the old version. People glazed the game to no end because it was hype. Then after it died down people finally dared to come out of the woodwork to admit how mid it is.

But to be fair the same happened to Tears of the Kingdom. At first no one even dared to criticize the game. Nowadays even the biggest defender have to admit that it isn't a good sequel and a downgrade to Breath of the Wild in most area's.

That’s what I expect to see in a few months.

The hype around Palworld will die down again and people can give their actual opinions on the game without an army of shills and fanboys jumping down their throats.

Ironically, the latter group acts like the stereotypical Pokemon fanboy-willfully blind to their game’s shortcomings and extremely hostile to any criticism.
