Check out my custom FunkoPOP of the ultimate imposter!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I essentially just body-swapped two Funkos and drew on the eyebrows to make them black. The head is Eugene Porter's (The Walking Dead) and the body is Michael Klump's (The Office). I'm VERY satisfied with the outcome!
I have a big Imposter collection that I'll show once the last few items arrive in my mail, in like a month or so. I'm pretty excited 馃枻

Palworld arguments and how to deconstruct them (+ common misconceptions)
Instead of making call-out posts targeting specific people like an SJW tumblrina in need of attention, I will provide general counter-arguments everybody can use within the Palworld discourse. I am sick and tired of AI-art getting normalized, this issue is getting out of hand and we must spread awareness for the sake of artists everywhere.
YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO EDUCATE PALWORLD DEFENDERS, BUT DON'T ATTACK THEM PLEASE!
Without further ado, here common arguments by Palworld fans and how you can deconstruct them.
1. "So you're defending a multibill. corp?!"
This is a common argument used by Palworld defenders. Within their narrative, Pokemon designs are a direct product of their Nintendo (the multibillion dollar company in question) and you're totally bootlicking them if you're pointing out the obvious plagiarism - as if the very heads of Nintendo were the ones creating the Pokemon designs... The truth, of course, is that individual artists provide these designs FOR Nintendo. Instead of "taking from the rich" like Palworld fans claim, their game actually steals from these artists. Hence, those who call out Palworld aren't die-hard Nintendo fans as much as they are people who simply call out plagiarism in defense of artists. I would even go as far as to add that people who defend PocketPair (the developers of Palworld) and those who buy the game just for the sake of controversy (yes, it's been done) are themselves adamant defenders of a corporation. Since they imagine others to be blindly defending Nintendo, it's bordering hypocrisy.
2. "It's not plagiarism"
If you show a Palworld defender one of Palworld's character designs and the Pokemon it's based on, they will in some cases start pointing out the differences between the two in order to claim there's no plagiarism involved. This is easy for them to do because the Palworld design you showed them isn't quite a rip-off of a Pokemon, no. It's actually the rip-off of TWO Pokemon. In fact, most Palworld designs tend to use the model of one Pokemon and some features of a other, along with some final alterations that are unique. Once you point this out, it's easy to notice on most if not nearly all Palworld designs. Here is an example that comes with a visual analysis, provided by @RaphDesLandes (a gamedev!) on X:

3. "There's no proof of PocketPair using AI!"
Not only is there proof of it, but that same proof shows that the devs run servers for AI programs, the same which they use for their game "AI Impostor", a game in which the core mechanic is the use of an AI-image generator. Here is the most flagrant example (I hid the developer's name because I'm not that kinda guy).
Tumblr media
Of course, I don't blame people who didn't know this. It's far from being common knowledge amongst Palworld fans, after all. That's why it's important to spread the word though.
4. "Gamefreak should'a made better games!"
It's not a secret: Nintendo and GameFreak have been letting us down with the recent Pokemon games on the Nintendo Switch. From poor writing to bad graphics, many fans (myself included) are unsatisfied. Palworld players praise the games' quality, claiming that it's existance is justified by the fact it's programmed better than recent Pokemon games. While it's understandable that one would want to play games with superior programming, it doesn't justify plagiarism (they could've just made a Pokemon fangame or a mod), and, well... it's simply false and doesn't apply.
Here is a link to a tweet showing one of Palworld's game-breaking glitches.
Not only that, but Palworld is mostly made up of Unity Engine assets, and it's controls are wonky. They're reminiscent of Garry's mod, which came out in 2006, except Gmod is faster.
5. Bonuses
-evidence of PocketPair using Pokemon fans' art to model their characters after (post by @onion_mu on X)
Tumblr media
-every Palworld-Pokemon lookalike (source unknown but reposted by @hejibits on X)
Tumblr media
-and also: deconstructing the (partial) myth around Palworld's success on Steam
Tumblr media
Lastly, it's important that I point this out, even if it's unrelated: Pocket Pair devs have received death threats. This is unacceptable. I encourage everyone reading this to create an online-environment where people discuss and debate with rationality, rather than such shameful behaviour. To me, people who send others death threats are no better than thieves, so please stay respectful!
Thank you for reading 馃枻 Please let me know if the link on 4. doesn't work or the post got taken down!

"I admired Stephen Hawking until I learned he went to Epstein's island"
If you think so, I have good news: you can instead look up to Adhara P茅rez S谩nchez, a child prodigy who's IQ is higher than Hawking's ever was. She is just 11 and already has a master's! Unlike Hawking, she's a good person and the prodigy new generations should look up to
