Good!

Pokemon has refused to evolve in any meaningful way over several decades. Just sitting at the top and trying to own the entire concept of "monster friends" isn't a real strategy. At minimum I hope palworld wakes gamefreak up, but honestly I just hope it takes the bandaid off and more devs flow in to the space.

"I hope more devs flow in to the space"

You mean Cassette Beasts, Beastie Ball, FUCKING DIGIMON, TemTem etc?

[–] inb4_FoundTheVegan 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes. I've seen most of Digimon and bought Temtem over a year ago. But seeing how many Pokémon fans are in a tizy after Pal, I hope it keeps diversifing.

I'm curious why you would reply this. Kinda feels like a "Oh you like X name 3 Y's". Am I misreading the tone? Idk.

It's moreso that I'm annoyed that Pokémon/Palworld fans seem to act like nothing but Palworld and Pokémon exist and I'm just wondering like "Dude devs have been flowing into the genre for YEARS. Palworld isn't exactly the first"

The genre has been getting revitalized for a while.
