Really? So a glider that operates exactly the same as a popular game by Nintendo, Creatures that heavily resemble a popular game by Nintendo, and HUD elements that heavily resemble a popular game by Nintendo, are all just totally coincidentally in the same game, shortly after these games made it popular?

If there was a spiky purple dragon that was running around collecting gems named Singe, yeah, I'd probably call them out for copying Spyro. But Palworld circlejerkers are so delusional to try and defend this game by saying "Well, these other games had something kinda similar". You know what they're doing. You'd have to be a toddler or huffing a lethal dose of copium to not.

I get you guys want a protest game and that's fine but does it really have to be this low effort? They could have went a totally different direction and used more realistic monsters, made it dark and a little gritty to match the themes, actually do some work to make it only a vague thought not use 95% accurate models with a fucking color pallet swap. I have emotional attachments to some Pokemon because I grew up around them, learned their personalities, and now there's a game where I stick a pump shotgun down their throat to 'capture' them. Not exactly chomping at the bit for that.
