Nerrrrrrd.
...I would say "What about SECAMworld?", but that definitely sounds like a nsfw cam models site.
Just got it. Did not know I wanted to jump pokemon with a baseball bat and take their stuff. 10/10 new experience
I'm not your Buddy, Pal!
I'm not your Pal, Friend!
I'm not your friend, guy!
And it's surprisingly good
I read it was a weird half baked game. Not in a bad way. Like, they made a meme game but they're actively trying.
Some parts are slightly unbaked. Like parts of the map that are missing fast travel points. But the gameplay loop is sane. And it has way more pals than I would be expected. Like dozens and it's worth getting them.
The older I get the more I've come to realize that I like weird.
Is it Electabuzz with a chaingun good?
There is an electribuzz enemy. Haven't found a way to catch it though bc it's controlled by an enemy boss. But there is a monkey with a machine gun who is pretty helpful for DPS racing the bosses.
someone make a lemmy community for palworld already
Can confirm the Game pass part.
Just tried playing this on windows PC, legit windows, legit GamePass, and it crashes every 5-15 seconds. Very vanilla/normal install and config of all hardware, etc. Maybe the steam version works better?
Looks close enough to the Pokémon brand, that I wouldn’t be surprised if a Nintendo lawsuit is on the way. Even some of the creatures seem like straight up copies 😅
I tried on pc gamepass and it's very underbaked. No controller icons at all and not even a way to quit the game at the menu. You literally have alt+F4 to quit the game. I'll wait a few weeks for the bugs to be fixed and try again.
If those are the things you choose to complain at, I'm hopeful here
trying to do a tutorial without any way to know what buttons do what is incredibly frustrating. Maybe not a big deal for some, sure, but for me it was an hour of hitting my head against a wall.
Also, forgot to mention: when building structures, there's no way to rotate pieces. It's completely broken.
