  It honestly just feels like someone took those “if Pokémon was realistic” videos where Pikachu said fuck every minute and trainers were abusive and made it a video game

  I feel like the color palettes are so similar because they want you to draw associations in your head with specific pokemon. They aren’t trying to hide the plagiarism. They just need them to be different enough for some legal debate and other than that, they want to get as much money as possible from people who are nostalgic about pokemon and will feel the same about ripoff designs.

  my favorite way to describe this game is that it&apos;s what you&apos;d get if you gave a budget to an eleven year old who thinks pokemon is for babies because it doesn&apos;t have guns

  One thing that bothers me is that they seem to have taken so many decisions saying &quot;let&apos;s do X so that the internet will do Y&quot;. &quot;Let&apos;s add a furry bait Pal so they&apos;ll make fanarts&quot;, &quot;let&apos;s add creepy descriptions so they&apos;ll make top 10 scary lists&quot;, &quot;let&apos;s add a weed Pal so they&apos;ll make memes like they already made with that one pokemon a couple years ago&quot;. At least Pokémon feels organic, like all this funny stuff just comes from the sincere enthusiasm of fans and not just because it was a marketing strategy (or if it was, at least it was well hidden).

  I love how one of the main creatures is literally just Totoro but painted yellow.

  there is one thing not mentioned in this video that i find absolutely despicable about this game. The Delphox knockoff isn&apos;t just a knockoff of the Pokemon design. It DIRECTLY STEALS EVERY SINGLE DETAIL of a Fanmade mega-delphox design by Pyroaura98. It sickens me to my core how Pocketpair don&apos;t just settle for plagiarizing a larger property, but that they would stoop so low as to steal designs made by small creators who dont have a platform to push back

  The biggest offence this game made in my humble opinion is the complete mish mesh of art styles. Like there are some pokemon-lookalikes who look genuinly a lot like the cartoony style of pokemon. Standing on top of a fairly realistic looking nature and then the humans look like they came from a completely different anime. None of it looks good together and I can&apos;t figure out the thought behind it.

  TBH, a lot of the Palworld designs look to me like they got their start from those pokemon fusion generators. &nbsp;As if someone created a whole bunch of random ones and then the game developers just went &apos;okay, move this a little to the left and it&apos;s good enough!&apos;

  My thing is everyone keeps talking about how it looks better than Pokemon lately but that don&apos;t mean it looks good the mishmash of the weird creatures with the hyper realistic backgrounds and GTA style guns just looks like one of those VR chat rooms with every single person with a different art style or that crossover episode between Lilo and Stitch the series and the TV show Recess just awful clashing styles<br>It all just makes my brain scream You Don&apos;t Go Together
