Gonna say this as someone who has been critical of Game Freak both as a fan and as someone with a Pokémon SPIN for a while now:
Do not support Palworld.
The CEO of Pocket Pair, the game’s studio, openly supports AI and even made a game where making AI-generated art is its main mechanic.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Palworld is not Pocket Pair’s first instance of plagiarism, either. Their previous game, Craftopia, plagiarizes Breath of the Wild, whereas as its upcoming game, Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse, plagiarizes from independent developer Team Cherry’s game, Hollow Knight.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
On top of stolen character models and concepts from fakemon artists, it’s already known that you can put Pals through what is basically slave labor BUT what’s been recently discovered is that the game allows you to capture and sell humans. This has been raising some red flags for black gamers looking into these mechanics, me included, considering this factors into the established slave labor system of Palworld.
TL;DR: I completely understand being tired of Game Freak and the Pokémon Company’s lack of polish over the years, but supporting something that is just as devoid of polish and even more devoid of ingenuity is not the way to make those criticisms clearer. This will only encourage more soullessness in the industry.
I implore you to support other creature collectors with some real passion behind them; I will reblog this post with recommendations shortly!

I saw a video of MatPat regenerating into his next host like Dr who
It got me thinking, imagine his last video...
"But hey..." Zoom out, A single tear is shed, "That's just a theory, a..."
*explodes*
"HELLO everybody my name is Markiplier today we're judging the knockoff Pokemon in Palworld based on smash-ability."

Debunking the Palworld uses AI slander
I have been mostly laughing at the salty Palworld haters raging over Palworlds success. But some of this outrage goes beyond the salty tantrums of corpo bootlickers crying over their favorite billion dollar mega franchise being parodied to out right slander.
So I stumbled onto a "news" article on twitter titled:
Tumblr media
Now it goes without saying but cry baby concern trolls on twitter are not a legitimate source of evidence for anything. But it gets worse.
They decided to cite a post made by the companies ceo talking about the use of ai to generate Pokemon designs as "potentially damning" evidence that they used ai to create designs. However when you look into the details this obviously not the case.
Tumblr media
They cite this post made by the creator as "evidence" that AI could have been used to make Pokemon designs.
Tumblr media
Wow that looks pretty damning doesn't it? Except there is just one problem. The AI Pokemon designs were made by a BuzzFeed engineer and he was only commenting on how similar they looked to Pokemon designs. None of these fakemon designs was made by anyone using AI at Pocketpair.
Tumblr media
Here's a link to the post with all of the fakemon designs made by Buzzfeed.
Tumblr media
This is sinking to a all new low it's one thing to hate a game. It's another to spread slander against game developers because you don't like a video game. This is pathetic. Palworld haters spreading lies like this only makes me want to play Palworld more. I hope Palworld is released on every console so I can buy two copies for each.

So I googled Palworld lawsuit out of curiosity (there isn't one, just pokemon fans saying they should sue)
However someone said that this is plagiarism
Tumblr media
That is. Just a sheep. Like I don't know what to say there.

I honestly want Palworld to do well because it does a bunch of things pokemon company have said just are not possible to do in a game (most of the survival aspect, having pokemon work on your base, human AI for enemies and traders outside of static conversation screens, pokebattles in real time, voice acting (uncomfirmed)) and here comes this much smaller company like "what, like it's hard?"

Finally gave in and tried Palworld and wow, it is addictive. The Pal designs are too generic for me to get excited about, but they successfully made me love my Pals as individuals. They're helping!!
