I have not played Palworld but I love that it has exposed the greed and capitalist rot of the company that makes Pokemon. Seriously, the “old guard” video game giants like GameFreak, Valve, etc. are putting out lazy content and sucking up billions from micro-transactions, lazy retreads, and subscriptions. It’s just funny to see capitalists be bad at capitalism.

    I’ve seen the AI claim several times, but I’ve not seen someone backing up the claim. Do you have a source?

        That doesn’t back that up at all. That’s griping about NFTs which do suck ass but half of the traditional publishers also got real weird about crypto shit and then similarly dropped it like a hot potato when the bubble popped.

        I haven’t seen anyone be able to back up AI use at all, and everyone I’ve seen trying to say there are stolen models actually shows the exact opposite when they extract models and show them being similar but the polygons being in fact different.

        Similar model doesn’t mean stolen model. It means someone tried to replicate it manually, which means it isn’t just copied and pasted.

        I’m not here to stan for the edgelord ripoff game, but virtually all of the complaints against it have been vibes-based at best and Reddit Detective witch-hunt harassment of anyone tangentially involved at worst.
