Its a very lazy mediocre game that only got recognition because it was ”Pokémon with guns”
I don’t like what Nintendo is doing, but I also thing palworld is a crap game
It definitely only got popular because of the hype re: "Pokemon with guns," but it's legitimately better than the game it actually copied, which is Ark. You know what's cool about Palworld? Me and my coplayer were able to stop playing without losing everything we've built
Anyone who thinks Palworld is actually a Pokemon ripoff either hasn't played Palworld or hasn't played Pokemon
Gameplay wise palworld has nothing to do with Pokémon, it was simply a marketing tool for em.
As for the ark comparison I can’t comment, the one time I played it was on the early access launch day during which I refunded it within 45 minutes because it performed horribly, that was almost 10 years ago though so not sure how the current game compares
