I love ethics, I love video games, and I love journalism. Put all three together, mix 'em up, and that's my idea of a fun afternoon.

I'm really excited for Dragons Dogma 2. Debating if I should warm up by playing some of Dragon's Dogma 1 first though. I know there's no story carry over, but it's been on my list anyway.

i dont know what compelled me to search 'palworld' other than people never shutting up about it but good lord this is some powerful postingquiggy posted:palworld seems deeply cynical and misanthropic and im looking forward to it exiting the zeitgeist quiggy posted:a game allowing you to do bad things is one thing, a game that forces you to do bad things and then analyzes it is another thing, and a third thing entirely is games like palworld that seem explicitly to be sandboxes for bad people to live out bad fantasies. like i get really strong hatred vibes off palworld even though they're very different games quiggy posted:fun fact hogwarts legacy was 2023's best selling game and palworld has already sold 5m copies. gamers are awful! yospos remains undefeated

hatty posted:Palword seems fun conceptually but at the end of the day its an Ark style survival game and must unfortunately be destroyed Yeah but sometimes the public just has questionable taste (in this case treepuncher games) and it's weird that goons can't understand that people like a genre they don't and assume it must be because they're brainwashed by memes or subliminal chud messages or whatever It's the same mentality that produces 1000000 word articles about how the box office success of noncontroversial family movie heralds the sexual failure of Gen Z mycot fucked around with this message at 17:40 on Jan 22, 2024 |

It's maybe slightly more objectionable than Pokemon itself. I honestly don't know why it's so popular, but then I don't really get Minecraft either, so that's on me.

It's a mid crafting sim that's more stable than modern pokemon games have been, which is enough to pull people in for a week. Then it also gives off mildly menacing vibes because people are suspicious of an early access crafting sim from a Chinese developer, it being a game that only stands out because you're able to shoot pokemon analogs with guns, and the CEO is into crypto, so people are convinced the other shoe is going to fall at any moment and going mad over it. (Nothing bad has happened yet, and there's no specific reason to think it will.)

I think the game kind of sucks rear end and is extremely derivative but like...So what lol. People having fun with it is whatever. Most of the haters can't just say why it's bad and instead hide behind plagerism or AI boogeymen. It's pathetic,

(Nothing bad has happened yet, and there's no specific reason to think it will.) Japanese. It’s really not even that janky tbh there have been major AAA games with more bugs released just in the last year. Sure it rips off a lot of stuff from other games but who gives a poo poo because the combined parts are a poo poo load of fun. The animations are also really well done and these Pokémon’s have some personality to them. It’s also a $26 ($30) game.

Palworld is also subject to the kind of insane misinformation hysteria I haven't seen since the original Pokemon ironically enough.
