has everyone gotten their knee-jerk reactions to palworld out. can i throw my two cents in

speaking as both an artist and a game dev student, the fact that people were so quick to jump to pocket pair’s (the company behind palworld) defense in regards to ripping off pokemon was highly concerning. even though there is evidence that they have literally ripped at least one model from pokemon directly.

and there is also no denying they have taken at least some β€œinspiration” regarding their other designs.

and a lot of people may go β€œthere’s no problem, they’re ripping off nintendo who is a huge company”. well, if they can get away with ripping off nintendo, what happens when they start ripping off smaller companies?

at first glance, what game do you think this is? nope, it’s not actually hollow knight. this is pocket pair’s upcoming game β€œnever grave: the with and the curse”. hollow knight was made by only three people. that is a far cry from nintendo’s massive company.

and although usage of ai generation may not be used in palworld, the company its from is no stranger to using ai art for their other games.

palworld exists as a novelty, haha funny pokemon game but with guns. but the moment you look into it, the company its from does some shady things. personally i would not want to support a company like it

You also forgot the part where Pocket Pair plagiarized fan pokemon designs with no compensation or credit.

That Mega Delphox was originally drawn by an artist by the name of pyroaura98 (their DA is down so here's a repost, as unfortunate as I had to do this: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/320037117242282149/)

To the left is the pal Arsox and to the right is Flairees, who was made for a fangame called PokΓ©mon Sage (https://antifandom.com/capx/wiki/Flairees)

Damn, it's worse than I thought.

Now, I’m no big city lawyer, but could any of you fine youths point a country boy such as myself in the direction of some fucking acid?

when I block people it's because they're annoying and I can't hire someone to kill them. when people block me though it's because they're obsessed with me and they needed to block me or else they'd jerk off to how funny I am for the rest of time
