It is insane to me that people defend this game. Ten years ago this game would have been dismissed as survival-crafting shovelware (although GameFreak’s lastest entries haven’t been much more polished).
Palworld is only superficially similar to Pokémon, but people treat it like it’s a logical evolution to Pokémon’s game design. I thought I was going insane, but I think I am now realizing that I am old and out of touch.
P.S. There is nothing wrong with liking survival-crafting as a genre (I adore Minecraft myself), I just think this game overly relies on addictive design and isn’t particularly deep or unique mechanically.
