Speaking of which, yeah, apparently sexiness is wholly allowed on Google and other Corpos but not on real content creators.

Imagine that you are in charge of making games based on the most lucrative franchise in all of human history and you can’t even pay for voice actors. Imagine that the average Chinese gambling character collecting game developer makes better looking, better sounding, and more fun inducing games than you.

@TrukkinDuck
I don’t know. I’m not on Twitter and I don’t really care about capeshit.

@Twiface
Is it the same for Kill the Justice League? Trailers show Batman and well, the title says it all, there’s no saving them. If anything, if that wasn’t the only complaint that we actually kill them, there’s also how they died that’s the problem, apparently the league should go in the blaze of glory and not a “disrespectful” bullet to the face. There’s also the Batman boss that isn’t a preset level of traps and ambushes but well Batman using fear gas because it would be easier seeing him a mile away or even memorising where the traps and ambushes are which would make him more pathetic that way anyway.

Basically this, and at this time it’s pretty obvious that Palworld is #CurrentTopic, especially since all their bitching about it did nothing to stop everyone from buying and loving the game so they’re in full on cope and seethe mod right now.

I give it maybe another a week at least…eventually all will convert to the Slinky Boi and then they’ll find a new #CurrentTopic to bitch about.

Maybe the upcoming Killer Bean game, once we get close to it’s release. I’m sure that one is somehow racist. Everything is racist on Twatter.

Social media has a tendency to fall in love with something for a few weeks and then suddenly forget it exists because the terminally online have the attention span of goldfish and can only conceive of the ‘current thing,’ whatever that happens to be. So when something stops being ‘the current thing,’ they drop everything and jump aboard the next bandwagon.

Remember when everyone was hyping up Hogwarts Legacy and buying it solely as a political statement? The hype for that looks ridiculous in hindsight, doesn’t it?

@ANoobis
They made the game about Miles Messiah and Spider-Man was useless loser.

Side missions were about hiding sex toys for two gay kids and hardly about stopping crime, because beating up thugs is offensive.

You can play as Venom! For about five seconds.

Spider-Man is fully nerfed and any fight you get into, Miles is there to take care of most of them.

Barely any exploration, the game is more on rails than early Star Fox games.

Spider-Man is sidelined for the other two.

Mary-Sue-Jowl-Jane is not only ugly, but a massive badass who tanks hits and keeps going like the Juggernaut.

Miles needs the unpowered Maryjane to save is, More a damsel in his own story

Black Cat is suddenly muff munching out of nowhere, mostly so Spider-Man has no one to fallback on

Spider-man retires in his twenties to be with MaryJowl and will most likely get divorced by her.

Bugs, gliches, more bugs, PS5s crashing bugs from crashing, bugs, bugs, glitches bugs.

Pretty the gist why it was garbage.

There is a slight difference when apparently, China doesn’t like shorts as much as the West while the West prefers something that’s not as revealing as a sling swimsuit even though they themselves made it in the first place.

Did something happen with Spider-Man 2? Everyone was acting like it was the second coming not that long ago, and now if someone talks about it at all it’s about how it’s overrated. I’ve seen everything from “it’s great, but not the best thing ever” to “it’s terrible”. It only came out a few months ago. Most Bethesda games had a longer honeymoon period than that.

Sounds like something a Cylon would say…

No, people would blow all their money at the Ultra-Luxe and need to venture out into the wasteland to get more.

@Twiface
If you did, there would never be any desire or need to leave the Strip. In fact, everyone would just download the inevitable alternate start in the Ultra-Luxe mods and skip the entire, now vastly inferior game entirely.

@BikerDash
I did indeed

Someone say Blackjack?

@Anonymous #2138
You barely made any argument, and it’s stupid.

@ANoobis
I just saw a Discord post a minute ago saying as much!

@Twiface
To be fair, there is actual slavery possible in Palworld. It isn’t just an empty name call. The pal balls work on human npcs, including faction leaders.

@FeatherTrap
I’m not really into multiplayer games so I don’t think I’ll bother to get invested in this. I am, however, happy to see some competition for an otherwise stagnant franchise.

Admittedly, it is a bit disturbing when the Steam page shows conveyor belts full of Kalashnikovs.

How many of these people said this about Pokemon?
It sounds like they’re only saying this because Palworld makes you put effort into caring for the pals instead of just keeping them in your pocket all day with only the occasional meal.
Well, I guess it actually does. Never mind.

And how many of these people were complaining about AI generated shit before Palworld?

You should just ignore people who levy disingenuous criticism like this.

Capital ‘B’ Blackjack?

What about blackjack with femboy dealers?

What about roulette with femboy croupiers?

What if we kicked the White Glove Society out of the Ultra-Luxe and let femboys run the place?

@ANoobis
Literally everyone I know who enjoys video gaming as a hobby is hopping on Palworld, my steam friends list pops up mentions of it constantly.

They just can’t stand it because it doesn’t pander to their sensibilities, it knows what it wants to be and commits. Not to mention it’s similar to Baldur’s Gate 3 in that it’s a (at best) AA Studio game with more content and respect for it’s players then everything the entire “AAA Industry” has released since Borderlands and Destiny made it clear to everyone that it was okay to make shit games now, because people are stupid enough to buy into it.

The frustrating thing about this is that Palworld deserves some serious criticism about it’s game design: Pals that are supposedly over twenty levels lower then you can still somehow double-tap you, the amount of grinding the same three dungeons for components like coal and sulfur is tedium incarnate, and the equipment degradation system decided that TES IV Oblivion was just being far too nice with it’s own system and aspired to reach the peak of obnoxiousness.

But no, instead of getting a discussion about things that actually do need to be rebalanced to make the game more fun, instead the discourse is about dumb shit like:

“UUUUGH, THIS GAME PREMOTES ANIMAL ABUSE!” (Abusing/Neglected the Pals in your base punishes you by making your experience three times more tedious then it already is.)

“NYEEEEEEAH, THIS GAME INVOLVES SLAVERY!” (Because remember: giving your ’mons a place to sleep, eat, play and relax is wrong if you demand a bit of work from them to keep their home running smoothly. You should do more that Nintendo wholesomeness with them, like make them violently maul each other cockfighting.

“THE DESIGNS WHERE AI GENERATED!” (That has never been proven, it is only suggested by screeching morons on Twatter-sorry I mean ECKSSSSSS)

“THE DESIGNS WHERE STOLEN FROM POKEMON!” (…and? Your point? Look I’m gonna be honest, if anyone fucking deserves to just have their IPs fucking stolen and used by devs who are actually inspired to innovate on the base concept, it’s Nintendo. Bar the occasional and very rare game like Paper Mario or Breath of the Wild their IPs have been stagnating for decades, with Pokémon being the most blatant example. I am totally okay with people just making their own Legally-Distinct-Pokémon game now. with Blackjack. And Femboy Hooters. In fact you know what? Screw the game (and the Backjack)!)

@ANoobis
Remember folks, if journos hate it and real people like it, it’s double good.

A Concerned Reader wrote a letter to the editor about how Palworld is trash and proves gaming is dying. It feels inorganic. The author voice is indistinguishable from that of a stereotypical journo and the piece parrots the media complex’s AI narrative.

I literally just found a “Free Pals Alliance” Camp that was attacking nearby Pals…and it had a caged Pal in it. X3

@Cyborg_pony
Hmmm… that’s actually a rather insightful take, for the most part, that is. Sledeghammer, yeah, sure, but ice sheet? I’d say more like some kind of glass.

@Anonymous #2138
You seem like someone who likes dishing it out, but when it comes to taking it, you do as well as a thin ice-sheet takes a sledgehammer.
