Ok
FREE MONEY???
I love money
that "shady stuff" was outright proven to be fabricated by someone with an agenda against palworld, and it would be good to idea to stop perpetuating that "they copied the models" hoax. the person who created that "evidence" admitted to altering the models to try and force them to match when they don't. the person in question specifically hated the violent themes in the game and was trying to hurt it

I love how literally no one is talking about this game anymore, and then Circle just strolls in and drops this
And now all the fighting between Palworld and Pokemon fans has reignited in the comments section lol
What is there to talk about? The game has been out for 5 months now and it's still in early access
They dropped the April Fools trailer last month (you know, the dating simulator one), and people have been talking about it for weeks. Just recently, they announced a new island and PVP
And that's not true either. Gym Trainer Ed also makes announcement and updated videos about monster collectors. And pal world shows up when it does.
Still got 14k people playing it right now
@@friendlyneighborhoodnoobima be real. Until this video I didn’t even know there was a dating sim pal world trailer.
Whenever I see PalWorld vs Pokémon debates I just immediately think of the classic El Dorodo meme:
“Both? Both - Both is good”
Am I supposed to be thinking of that song that I remember listening to?
Ass or tits?
Palworld devs did not rip off any fakemon artists. The example used of the mega Delphox art, was actually posted after the Palworld Pal appeared in a trailer for the first time.
The same happened for pokemon. The artist specifically said that they were joking about pokemon stealing their idea for palafin. The pepper design shouldn't have even been discussed because a pepper pokemon being fire grass is so ridiculously easy of a concept to make that saying they copied it

Cut to months later and Palworld has released several updates. Several QoL updates, a raid boss, items, remolded some pals and have planed an even bigger update for the summer.
They really seem to be in this game for the long haul and I look forward to it. They will finish this game.
You say that like it became a masterpiece, when in reality they raised the quality bar from unacceptable dogshit to badly programmed.
@@elyrienvalkyr8167Shouldn't really expect AAA from an indie company lol
Pocket Pair to me seems like a game studio that has no veteran talent and just wants to break out big without the requisite knowledge to do so. All of their previous games very heavily lean on other more popular games and are all relatively simple in design (often using pre-made assets from the Unreal store). So when they started on Palworld and initially released the trailer back in Xbox's indie showcase a few years back and it got a lot of eyeballs (similar to Cuphead's story) suddenly the studio knew it had to focus on Palworld and make a product people would share and enjoy. The early success led to them being able to hire more senior talent who actually knows what they're doing which is leading to a more competent product.
My guess is even if Palworld isn't "the one" to put Pocket Pair on the map, it's a critical stepping stone for them for their next game now that they'll actually have the skilled developer talent to make that project a success and the clout to get a publisher to publish whatever they decide to make.
@@pacmonster066 you say a company with no veteran talent and you would be right, for the most part, they have 1 veteran talent who only joined them part way through developing palworld and was the reason why they moved from unity to unreal (like there's a big note about it the ceo made)
@@MetronaJ The move from Unity to Unreal is what created a lot of the problems with the game though, have you seen the pre-unreal footage? It's like a whole different game! They had the remake a lot of assets and start over with the actual game part when they moved to Unreal, including the world map. The environments shown in the Unity footage just fit the style of the pals better, more Pokémon, less breath of the wild. Also in the move we lost the factories and piece-by-piece building and instead got crafting stations and blue holograms that fill up as it builds.
Although with the move they did dodge the bullet of Unity's proposed "charge per installation" bullshit, so that's nice I guess
Palworld is more similar to Ark than Pokémon. The difference being the fact that you can tame every Pal relatively easily while Ark requires a 23 step process for one dino
that's why I prefer Palworld over Ark. I don't have to spend 72 hours feeding drugs to a high level creature just for a random Rex spawn to eat it at the finish line lol
@@StygianIkazuchi Things get complicated in Palword when you want to have a perfect Pal, you need a lot of breeding, a lot, when they complete the game many will find out when they want to compete in PVP.
@@XeninMaki See, that's why I don't bother with competitive PVP or perfect stats in online games of this nature. I don't find those grinds fun so I skip them.
I tried Ark and could not get use to the game. Tried Palworld and been hooked on it ever sense
@@StygianIkazuchiAlthough most of us turn up taming effectiveness just because Ark’s base expectations for how much time/patience we have for watching a sleeping dinosaur are way too high.
The qr code at 11:00 leads to an Amazon page for soap lmfao
delicious!
Is the soap the one from the memes? Or its not Kleener pal or whatever it was called.

Well, you outed yourself for trying to "mount" that Pal...
@@JeiJohnson other way around i think
6:20 his escalating aggression towards the mozzarina followed by the bloodbath in the next shot… AND THEN OTHER PALS ARE EATING BURGERS LMFAO
The irony is that Pals feel more like Pokemon from the anime, than the Pokemon in the actually nintendo games do.
I know! I actually FEEL like I'm taking care of a living creature. Seriously just give Pokemon animations like Palworld and it would be perfect! I know some people are going to say "But animations for over 1000 Pokemon is to much!" Here's an idea... come out to the fans and LET THEM KNOW this will take time but it will be worth it.
especially as references even in the show, you should be able to eat your pokemon and cook them up.
They are essentially the animals of the Pokemon universe, so they should be edible. Like Pals. You can eat them all.
I hate that about say... Legends Arceus... they feel like attack robots in pokemon costumes.
You're just hanging out with a wild mon, giving it berries, suddenly a berry bounces off the floor and hits it. Now it goes full murder mode and wants to skin you alive for daring to accidentally hit it with a berry.
Probably cause the anime is based off the games not the other way around
@@snivysnake8992 Just do it for a few old Pokemon and the new Dex each generation (especially since modern Pokemon games only feature about 400 Pokemon)... Which they're kind of already doing.
People nowadays are so aggressive that they cannot conceive the idea of having multiple favorites.
"WE DEMAND EXCLUSIVITY! WE DEMAND COMPLIANCE! YOU DARE NOT OPPOSE THE MAJORITY!"
@@Your-Least-Favorite-Strangerwe demand Inclusivity
I mean, the world is designed for it. You have your political party, you have your religion, and it's so socially accepted that no one will countenance disagreement that the polite conclusion is simply not to talk about it. So expect that polite people simply won't talk about whether they play Pokemon or Palworld.
@@Demmrir Aw man that hits close to home because it also works with stuff you're "supposed to" hate. I had to move out of a previous house because a roommate had a violent PTSD freakout because I simply don't hate Donald Trump. I just don't like being told I HAVE to hate something as the emotion can be so draining, especially when so much hate gets thrown around regarding accusations that half the time aren't even true.
@@maskedbadass6802 I'm sorry your room mate caught Trump derangement syndrome. It's very deadly.
7:18 Ah yes, because Game Freak owns the rights to the Egyptian god Anubis. 💀
Right? Even the colors are used often in egyptian based toons
11:23 No one ever mentions how useless captured humans are. They have no skills, never use their weapons and can't work at your base. The most you can do with them is sell them to the black market guy (probably not for a whole lot, IDK because I never found him) or if you're particularly sinister, put them on display in a viewing cage.
you can butcher them to get the loot a second time.
Yeah, it was really disappointing. You’d think they’d be able to do anything you can do.
They can work at your base, just craft shit but still. Also, other than merchants being in your base being a huge deal, all humans are the same, so once you can capture them relatively easy, you can commit a crime and have tons of guards spawning, giving you basically an infinite amount of resources (as long as you have balls to catch them with), and basically create an immortal god.
You can also kinda do it with low tier pals, but even those are hard to catch in masses.
Honestly design wise a lot of the Palworld creatures actually reminded more of how a lot of Kirby characters are designed, especially on how a lot of the little guys will have stubby arms and legs, and how in general most of them have a rather rounded feel to them. (Lamball looks like a woolly Waddle Dee to me, which make them even more cute IMO.)
Kirby was originally a placeholder for a character they were going to design later, but the developers decided that they liked him, so they kept him like that.
And that little candle creature literally looks like a Kirby character to me.
Like if I saw those in a Kirby game, they would not feel out of place at all.
@@sophiedowney1077 really? what were they planning on designing?
@@MegaMegajennifer They never got around to it because the placeholder was good enough.
@@MegaMegajennifer it was gonna be another mario-human like character but masahiru couldn't decide on the character and shigeru miyamoto thought the "place holder" was cute and it worked so they made Kirby the mc
It’s an interesting feeling when an indie company makes a game that you wanted a triple A company to make for years.
Yeah. Palworld gave me the experience I was looking for with Pokémon and then some. But then again, I don't think Pokémon would ever implement gameplay that would let you fight alongside your Pokémon, so I'm glad Palworld came along...with its assault rifles...and gave me that experience.
@@eldritchbeauty i really dont get why humans cant fight alongside. some trainers have pokemon powers themselves, so whats holding them back!?
@@MegaMegajennifermaybe humans are just weaker in general
You have that in the most recent Yokai Watch, and also Ni no kuni for example. Even Arceus is going in that direction... they could totally do it for Pokemon
@@PetitTasdeBoue whats the title of the yokai watch game? and i think in legends arceus sometimes pokemon fight pokemon and sometimes just humans fight pokemon, depending on which pokemon you're up against
11:25 ain't no way you "accidentally" capture someone.
trust me, having played the game…the ‘throw ball’ button is way easier to press than you think. ^u^;
@@sunnyd6519 can also confirm, I can easily recount multiple times I've just thrown a max rank ball at a tree or a rock
5:08 The 'penguin go boom' thing is actually a reference to Disgaea. Which has a blue penguin that explodes when thrown.
Ah man I loved that game. What were they, Prinnys? Something like that?
i thought they were based on tristana's pengu cosplay skin. but now that i think about it, there were also times when penguin tried to make an army of penguins 5u1s1d3 b0mb3r5
Dooooooooooood!
Ah yes, that one Prinny. They were perfect
They're lore about wanting to fly is also most likely a reference to an old flash game called "Learn to fly" where you play as a penguin using things like hang gliders and rockets to fly. Didn't think I'd see a prinny today.
Palworld has Dramatically improved since it's first release.
It had an incredible amount of bugs when it was released, but currently they have solved quite a few bugs, it is no longer so easy to find bugs, the development team has been gaining my trust.
But it still has a horrible issues with hosting a world to play on with your friends on Xbox s at least. Try to enter a dungeon crash, try to go further and uploading in a part of the map that hasn't been loaded in yet this session crash oh you made it to the boss room of the dungeon crash
@@XeninMaki Personally I've never encountered any sort of game breaking bugs when I played the game at release. The worst I remember the game having issues with was pathing with pals at the base and them getting stuck all the time
Though to be fair I never played the game Online and that'd make sense if the game was a buggy mess trying to play with other people at release
Explains why there are still two people playing it
@@MrRandomSuperhero Wrong by a factor of minimum 5000 from Steam alone but, yeah close enough I guess
I like how the little water guy that was watering the crops for the ENTIRE video near the end looked over like "why are you making me water these crops for so long they don't need this much water"
"...under good working conditions."
That little guy: Hypocrite.
Hey he took lunch breaks.
yeah, i dont get that game mechanic either. having little water and grass type critters help with gardening sounds fun, like in the final chapter of wooden plank's reviving all the smash fighters arc, but in pokemon brilliant diamond and shining pearl, you just water the little berry tree seeds till you think "ok, thats enough" and wait about a day for them to grow. sure, the slow process means less berries, but pals probably wouldnt get hungry as often if they didnt have to do so much yard work to provide food for themselves. its a vicious cycle! and theres also vendors who sell food
@@MegaMegajennifer Food goes a far longer way if you cook it into proper meals. Jam sandwiches, salads, pancakes and so on. One of my three bases is only to produce food for them all, but it makes a big surplus.
@@Milkymalk yeah, i like cooking in games too. except in pokemon brilliant diamond. almost impossible to bake a decent poffin. anyway, i meant i can buy ingredients
I just love how Teafant is rolling its eyes at the hypocrisy of "fair working conditions" at the end.
It still genuinely surprises me how even in this video people don't realize Nintendo has so many lawyers because they used to steal EVERYTHING with intellectual property. People are so pissed about things like Anubis and Lucario, when Lucario and a number of other Pokemon literally were stolen designs on the part of Nintendo.They were literally posted in bulk as part of the Egyptian mythology artist work on places like DeviantArt! But because people have only known them as Lucario their whole lives, they immediately think a plagiarized character is being plagiarized and are outraged.
Most of us in the older generation genuinely have realized how much Pokemon has stolen from other artists, and have pretty much pointed out the fact that Nintendo's infamous lawyer team hasn't descended upon Palworld like a murder of crows because it would come out to the newer, naive generation of fans.
Nintendo back in the day was famous for copyright infringement. The reason why they had such a horribly strong lawyer team in the first place was just to defend themselves against huge amounts of the legal equivalent of cease and desist demands.
They would steal designs and then bully people into taking them down financially or legally. And now, the younger generation hasn't grown up with that... And genuinely thinks it's disgusting how a thief is getting stolen from!
Man, is this what getting older feels like? It sucks.
i don't have the power to read this I'm really sick and I just woke up
@@Clenner0 long story short
nintendo has alot of good lawyers because they use to get sued alot for stealing people's ideas and now they cant do much against palworld because if they tried their past would be revealed to the new fans.
@@Clenner0 TLDR Nintendo spend lots of money for good lawyer, then steal stuff and legally get away with it
Thank you for revealing what Nintendo/Game Freak has done.
I love the skill fruits, cause they grow on SKILL TREES. I groaned at this first but it was amazing to think about how corny it is.
We love our pokemon devil fruits in this house
We love a good dad-joke
I laughed for a bit when i first saw that. A literal skill tree. Its so obvious but still unexpected.
1:11 That person who made the original tweet talking about how they plagiarized the models admitted that they fabricated the evidence. Their excuse was that Palworld "promoted animal abuse," which to me is one of the funniest things to hear coming from a Pokemon fan lol. I wouldn't say Palworld "promotes" animal abuse so much as it's just much more honest with its theming than Pokemon is.
Pokemon fans try not to enjoy the most simple slop of a game with minimal changes challenge. IMPOSSIBLE
That was a fake account.
@@PKSunset No it wasn't. It was the same exact account that had made the original claim. I was following that stupidity closely.
@@StygianIkazuchiyeah they claim it's a fake account because they don't want to believe that they were fake so they said its a different person who said they were fake
@@StygianIkazuchiwasn’t the claims they faked it just that they matched the models sizes? I might have missed something but still leaves a lot of things extremely sus, especially the primirina and serperior fusion.

“Chess like combat of Pokémon”
I used a single Pokémon using 1 attack through most of these games.
TBF, it becomes more chess-like in more competitive settings or challenge runs.
The main campaigns can *usually* be beaten this way… although even some of the Elite Fours and champions of some generations will kind of throw a wrench into that. The post games usually have content that will screw you if you played this way though. And then with Scarlet/Violet now, you’re gonna have a bad time with the somewhat challenging double battles that make up the second part of the DLC campaign if you played like that until then (so in a sense, you’ll have a rough time actually finishing the story as it’s defined at that point, if you can beat that at all) and you’re SOL for raids. Finally, every game since the 3DS has made the EXP share, on either by default or even recently made so you can’t even turn it off, set up so you kinda have to go out of your way not to have some semblance of a team at this point. This comment seems more based on cliches and memories of the older games than how the series has actually worked since the days of the 3DS and onwards.
usually the starter pokemon, right?
Areas have certain levels they are balanced for, that's why in nuzlocke runs they have level caps so you can't steamroll through level advantage alone.
besides, chess doesn't depend on luck. world pokemon cups have been lost due to an unfortunate crit, or a miss. it's frustrating
The pal dex type song was fire you need to make a full version.
Yes please
Yes
Yes definitely
YES!
So hoping to get some Parodies of songs. Full version of that doing the whole Pal Dex would be awesome
The devs didnt do shady weird shit with the models, that was already disproved
This game is honestly an example of how a parody can stand on its own from the work that it’s a parody of. It’s the relationship between Spaceballs and Star Wars, Space King and Warhammer, etc. Definitely gonna check this game out. (When it becomes full access)
The only Pal/Poke similarity I disagree with is lucario. It's literally an egyptian Jackal with spikes just because Pokemon made a jackal monster first doesn't mean they 'own' it or others are 'copies'.
I kinda agree and kinda disagree. It’s true they both share the same root concept, that being Anubis, so it’s not really accurate to say one copied the other. On the other hand there’s the point that it might have been chosen specifically because Lucario is so popular. It’s not illegal, I would even say the design is good. I wish they’d done it more as a mage than a fighter but then OG Anubis is a mage and it would have helped differentiate it from Lucario.
@@cathygrandstaff1957 That's more on the [animation] and [move list] side of the design.
Thank you! It seems strange that Circle takes time to point out how the penguins differ, and then falls onto the "Anubis is Lucario" bandwagon later in the vid. The two have 0 shared elements beyond being based on the Egyptian deity. Different eye/head/tail/limb shapes, different silhouettes, different animations, different colours and accessories, literally not a single shared design element! Nintendo doesn't own Egyptian gods just like they don't own blue penguins.
Seriously, Lucario wasn't based on Anubis. Palworld's Anubis feels like a response to that farcical claim, saying "no, if it were based on Anubis it would look like THIS. See how it has basically nothing in common with the Lucario we actually got?"
I think my favorite drama with palworld is when people started MAKING STUFF UP! in order to say it's bad
One guy in the comments is trying to tell people that the game totally ripped off Pokemon, it's just that Nintendo can't sue the creators because "laws in Japan are different". This is pure brainrot...
@@Abedeuss My favorite was the person who tried to claim that palword stole their design only for people to point out that the design that they supposedly "stole" was revealed in an early trailer before the guy released his design.
When they say that you have no control over the Pal, but in reality you can control if your partner attacks everything around him, if he only attacks the one you decide to attack or if he simply does not attack anyone.
And not only that, by playing with the order of the attacks and their cooldown times you can organize your strategy so that it attacks the way you want, although not necessarily in the exact time you expect, unless you use a Pal of mount, in that case you can control everything.
@@AbedeussHell, even the Pokemon CEO informed us that they have no intentions on suing Palworld
@@friendlyneighborhoodnoob Source? I believe you, but source?
There are SOO many more fakemon than even pokemon. You cant blame palworld for accidentally coming up with the same idea
8:48 love the silly art
1:13 weren't most of these if not all proven to be false/fabricated? You'd think Nintendo of all companies would DESTROY them legally if there was any validity to plagiarism claims.
The person who started those claims admitted they were modified to look closer because he didn't like animal cruelty or something like that, yes.
@@StygianIkazuchi What a dumbass reason.
no one fore sure proved it...but a lot of them are a liitttttllleee too close.
Yeah but a lot of content creators don't look into it further or ignore it but in this case I think he didn't know that those were proven to be false evidence to frame palworld
Yup all of them were proven false the artist of the game used to make fake mon that's why some look like fake mon and is throwing people off
Jokes on you, I’m working this Saturday night.
A tale as old as time lol
Heh, same
Can't wait to work retail on Memorial Day weekend!
So am I. And I just finished watching it at work!
Same here
I got into Palworld because some psycho pokemon fan sent me a jihadi beheading video, because I didn't agree with them on twitter about Palworld being AI generated. i didn't even say they're wrong, i just said "hey can do you have a source?". They sent me a video where the first frame is something like "proof Palworld used AI" and it immediately hard cuts to the beheading.
I went from "I mean I'm not into pokemon so I'm not interested in pokemon-lite" to "yeah screw pokemon, all of you are psychopaths, I'm playing Palworld out of spite". Surprise surprise, Palworld is genuinely a good game and I enjoy it despite not being into monster catching games. I'm not into survival crafting games either, but man Palworld does a great job at making me enjoy it.
As someone who just likes Pokemon because haha funny creatures, that is extremely messed up. Doesn't really matter who's into what at that point, sorry someone would do that to you.
14:09 a great example of a good early access game is ultrakill, it’s polished, not buggy and is only missing content and nothing else
7:18 Anubis isn’t that bad. There are only so many ways to make a jackal man, which is a public domain mythological idea.
based on a Egyptian god anubis who was a man with a dog head the only similarity is that its a dog furry that knows how to punch things it's a big stretch in my opinion
Is Lucario also based on Anubis?
@friendlyneighborhoodnoob yes and so is the pal anubis but palworld is much closer to the original anubis
Yeah, just because Pokèmon called first dibs doesn't mean that they signed an exclusivity agreement with the ancient Egyptians to have the sole spin off of their Anubis character. Honestly bad take for Circle for not knowing where Pokèmon ripped off theirs.
@triadwarfare I don't think they called dibs but that's actually kinda funny the way you put it made me chuckle
It's fun when people say "once you have everything it get boring and there's nothing else to do"
uhm yeah, just like Minecraft, Terraria or any crafting survival game.

Palworld is so far off from the pokemon gameplay I don’t think they’d affect each other too much.
Exactly. Most of the discourse surrounding these games inevitably gets tied up in a bunch of made up, engagement-bait even if it’s not the intention… because we’re ultimately all reacting to the made up idea that this game is an outright replacement for Pokemon… when it’s not. It’s a completely different kind of game, inspired by the overall Pokemon concept that also satirizes it.
You know how you can tell it's not pokemons gameplay?
Pokemon actually has gameplay. You have next to no control over your mentally challenged legally distinct knock offs in Palworld. Even assigning them jobs causes their 2 brain cells to collapse.

@@elyrienvalkyr8167 When I tried the game for the first time, I also thought that its strategic potential was very limited, but it is not true, behind the simplicity of the combat being in real time, the abilities of the Pals, how they influence themselves and others. the player gives rise to very interesting battles when there is PVP.
It gives me the impression that if you have played this game it has only been a very short time and you don't know what you are talking about.
Loved the elephant turning around at 15:58 when circle says "good working conditions"
I don't get why people think that Anubis is a rip-off of lucario. The name is literally taken directly from egyptian mythology. Just like with the sheep, there are only so many ways that you can reinterpet from the same source material. If anything, Palworld is sticking closer to the source material.
Something to note, the claim that palworld plagiarized was 100% false. The person who made that accusation admitted that they fabricated the whole thing and they did it because they thought palworld encouraged animal abuse.
Yes, the guy falsified the character models to make them fit, but the lie was repeated so much that there are still people who believe it.
Where did it proven he was false? All I heard is that he scaled the models for better comparison. If you have a tweet that compares the Pals actual model than go ahead
@@XeninMakiThe absolute irony of this comment
Is it also false that palworld used ai to generate ‘Pokémon like’ models?
There is still *some* rocky edge cases, though. For example, Azurobe's model bears an incredibly striking resemblance to Prismarina; the hair is so similar, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that, at the very least, whoever designed Azurobe was directly looking at Prismarina when making it... especially when you consider the color scheme (plus the pink of Azurobe's tail being a match for Popplio's nose).
In addition, while serpent-like body types will almost always be similar, adjusting the bones of Azurobe's model so the lengths match with Serperior shows nearly identical vector rings. The odds of this happening by accident are *nearly zero*, and it's much more likely that someone started with a Serperior model and adapted it into something else; perhaps using the rings for scaling, adjusting them how they wanted, and then re-making the model from there (as the Azurobe model does have more polygons).
That said, Nintendo has always been super hardcore about copyright and plaigarism, and if there was a leg to stand on in Japanese court, we wouldn't have a Palworld, so it's probably transformative enough.

@@cypher838 Egyptians had martial arts and Anubis is the defender of the dead. Most media depicts anubis as some kind of evil entity this is wrong. Anubis is suppose to be a very friendly being who protects souls and ensures they reach the afterlife safely while defending them from harm.
So it knowing how to fight perfectly fits Lucario and palworlds anubis.
@@cypher838Yea, and the penguin was not only a penguin but fights with water???? Obvious ripoff as nobody else could combine that fighting style with something designed off of a real life thing.
@@cypher838 Did you expect them to pull out a pair of boxing gloves or some shit?
@cypher838 Wow Pokemon invented Martial Arts 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
3:28 holy shit, ive never seen this man before. why is he so dapper
Love the videos! I'm glad for the fence standing point of views and the amount of explanation and thought behind your arguments. Amazing humor, too! Keep it up!
7:20 This one just makes me angry when people bring it up. Is fucking Anubis you don't get to call every Anubis creature a rip off of Lucario. Are you going to go to Egypt and declare copyright over the god's damned hieroglyphs?
I absolutely adore Palworld due to how ridiculous it is, also it is pokemon esque creatures combined with Ark Survival Evolved like gameplay
I made this comment before 2:30 where he says exactly this so i may be just another world's version of CircleToons that somehow switched realities.
Whats really amazing about palworld is the fact that pals can actually dodge. In pokemon you have to depend on special items, rare pokemon personalities and odds to guarantee that your opponents move will fail on their turn while in palworld your pals can just step aside when a move comes their way. In pokemon arceus your pokemon can lose half their hp from a single move and a pal will straight up teleport out of the way. Watching my anubis and bushi take on bosses give me goosebumps because they're just so good at dodging incoming attacks. Pokemon could never. I played palworld for 100 hours before i went back to arceus, after taking on a mass outbreak and watch 4 pokemon take turns decimating my empoleon while it just stood there i turned my switch off. I didnt even bother saving.
8:13
FINALLY, SOMEONE GETS ME!!!!!!!!!!!
I highly doubt this game will be abandoned by the devs anytime soon. You can tell that there's passion put into this game, based on how deep it is.
That said, this might also force GameFreak to improve pokemon games as a whole, considering they now have actual competition in the monster catching genre. A worthy opponent one could say.
Thing is they're not actually competition though. While they both feature monster catching, the core gameplay is way too different for them to actually compete with each other. They might have some positive influence on each other, but they're certainly not competitors.
There is no passion in this game dog I hate to tell it to you
@@The_doot_man Did you actually play the game?
@@The_doot_man the company has made their Ark/Pokémon clone, a Metroidvania that has some enemies that look straight out of hollow knight, some survival game that I’ve seen people say looks like BoTW, a literal among us ai art game, it’s all too much similarities for me to believe they’re just taking a lot of inspiration from their favorite franchises or something
@@Woopor someone sane is here jesus
You know, any time I see Anubis next to lucario… all I can think is I prefer Anubis
Me too
Me too
Yah while I like lucarios design. There are just bits and parts of it that make it feel off. But the design of Anubis feels more rounded out and done better. Such as the nose and mouth of lucario bug me while Anubis has a nicer dog like face and nose.
I like both equally. It just annoys me when people keep saying it's a Lucario rip off when they're both based off the same thing ..
@@whitedragonzerureusu4480 Not as bad as the fanboys basically claiming that Nintendo owns the likeness of sheep and blue penguins.
I don't want to sound like a hater but please do more research on the whole plagiarism thing. Cause like while I'm not denying stuff like Anubis looks like its meant to copy the design, there isn't any actual plagiarism (especially from fake mon like wtf????). Good video, love to see some palworld love!!!
I feel like there is so many fakemon designs, that Palworld is bound to "copy" some while making pals. While it is entirely possible that they did copy fakemon designs, there is also the largem possibility on the other hand that they happened to make a design similar to the thousands of designs online.
can we play skyblock now
The fact that berd Doesn't have more likes is insane. I love you berd
hypixel skyblock got me addicted to gambling
I feel like the problem is wanting to like both franchises, but each one hates the other and claim that they’re the best
I was watching Pal videos and I came across comments that just kept repeating the same trend of “Pokémon fans are sh*tting themselves right now” and I just found it really hard to enjoy the game when the fans keep insulting the other thing that I like
Maybe you need to …idk…not align your enjoyment of a game to random comments on the internet then. Like that’s really weird when you think about it.
Why would some people in YT comment ruin your enjoyment of the game?
I understand. Being within a fandom as a community is nice(lots of fanart for one), but being in two at once while those two vehemently hate each other can be quite annoying
(The rest of y'all need to stop lying, btw. You can only pretend for so long that you 'don't care at all' what other people think)
@@123890antonioj your mistaken about something. Ofc I care what people think about me. But if I like something genuinely for reasons of my own nobody is going to make me not like or enjoy it? That’s so childish. I don’t like Pokemon much. But if Pokemon made a game that finally moved beyond the staleness of jump right back on it and judge it my own. My opinion comes before everybody else’s opinion. As it should be for them too.
Digimon fans: First time?
Okay how are your long form videos always such a fkin god-tier masterclass banger of a video. Loved how informative and crazy funny this was haha
Palworld and Helldivers feel like the start of a new era in gaming.
Holy!!! Wow. This animation is insane. Your style is simplistic, however it’s immediately noticeable how hard you worked on it. Truly beautiful!
Did anyone else notice his calendar says September 10th 2001 or is it just me?
I saw it immediately
Saw it
lmao
The last day of childhood indeed.
Additionally, GameFreak has asked people to stop calling them to do something about PalWorld
9:02 The animation quality here was insane. Really admire the little details and work you put in that makes your videos so much more engaging than just watching some guy talk in front of a camera.
I just want to say I appreciate the Digimon World music in the ad segment. Wasn't expecting a nostalgia bomb in an ad, haha.
Oh, and the Palworld vs. Pokémon war was so stupid. Gamers being gamers, nothing new here.
The biggest plus for Palworld is even the early game/useless ones that you would never use on your party are still useful in your base, it's neat
Love your animation and video essays circle!
i need to physically restrain myself from making a SquaretoonsHD channel
IM SORRY IT WAS STRONGER THAN ME
Whoa, the expressive animations from this SquareToons guy really shine. It's like, everything I've wanted from CircleToons for years!
Palworld is a really good game i wish there wasn't so much bias against it
Once they actually make it function and un-fuck the game design to actually have gameplay... there might not be so much bias against it.
@elyrienvalkyr8167 you apparently don't know anything about the game it very very clearly shows 🤣
I can’t help but have some bias against them for stealing a substantial amount of designs. I appreciate everything else.
@_politefrog_8892 inspired by or having similarities is not the same as steeling but for some reason people keep thinking they are the same thing and I think that is the biggest issue because they forget every single modern game is taking designs, aspects, mechanics and so forth from other games pokemon has done it multiple times but people only seem to be upset at palworld dispite it being a good fun game it confuses me why people allow it from some places but not others
@@_politefrog_8892just because Pokèmon had first dibs doesn't mean they had exclusivity agreements to have designs on certain animals or even mythological creatures. Like I mean Pokèmon can't claim Lunaris is original as it's been taken from the Egyptian god Anubis, so Palworld can go straight from the source and do a clean room design of their interpretation of Anubis.
11:23 this part was absolutely hilarious, the silence and the smile 😂😂😂😂
6:44 WAIT, IT DOES!?!?! Well, that's great because sometimes, corpses get in the way! :D
Its crazy that a vid about Palworld now after it being out for months can still be outdated in some cases cause of the animation taking time.
Note that I am NO ways bashing you, this is a great informative video like your other ones, but I'm wondering if in cases like this (where you wanna comment on something topical) you should interlase you talking irl with small animations so its not too strenuous on the animation time.
Its a rehash of his first vid Word for word His "animations" are single frame cuts sorry but keep bootlicking
It's the commentary that doesn't take nearly as much time as animations but it was kept in anyway.
I love pokemon AND palworld. I also think they could learn a thing or two from each other. Palworld's biggest problem for me right now is the non-existent story, but I'm hoping they'll get some kind of cohesive narrative together in future updates.
Fun fact, this game is actually a remake of a top-down shooter Flash game from 2004, and yet everyone calls pengullet a ripoff, even though it was one of the 10 pals in the original game, meaning it predates Piplup.
Palworld is ark survival. I do see the other guy that wrote that, but it came out of my mind without seeing it. Instead of dinosaurs, there are close relatives of pokemon and also slavery.
Hey, hopefully Palworld’s success gets more people to play more Monster Taming games in general; surely people will see that there’s a ton of options both old and new right? …right?
This reminds me of a rant I heard on a monster taming channel, where he called out people claiming that Palworld "takes attention away" from good monster taming games while not actively promoting good monster taming games.
So as not to be a hypocrite, I've enjoyed:
Siralum Ultimate
Palworld (is it a troll to answer honestly?)
Digimon CyberSleuth
There's more games out there, but these are the ones I have personal experience with. I'm sure mon fans can throw their own hats into the ring until we run out of ring.
@@0freeicecream956 is the person your talking about Gymm Leader Ed?
and yeah, I agree with that statement. don't just complain, at least share stuff you think deserves attention.
....Spectrobes my beloved... T_T
@@0freeicecream956maybe people equate good "monster taming" games to be turn based, hence the bias.
Turn based games are a dying breed and is no longer mainstream for a very long time. While BG3 was a recent success, they're still far from mainstream.
Honestly, I don't like turn based battles. It takes me out of the action.
@@triadwarfare Eh, Monster Taming is a niche genre, so most devs in the space are pretty small, with the obvious exception being the two-hundred pound gorilla that is pokemon. There are some real-time games, but they're few and far between, and a steam search on the awful "creature collector" tag tells me that a lot of them are on the weaker end of the spectrum. If you're looking for alternatives to traditional mon games, right now I'm keeping my eye on Skyclimbers, which has its public beta coming up this summer(?). It's a real-time adventure/citybuilder with monster taming that's been in the works for about as long as Palworld. I only didn't bring it up in the previous because it's not out and I don't have backer access to it.
As an aside, calling turn-based a "dying breed" is quite extreme. Indie sphere is loaded with turn-based darlings that do well for themselves, BG3's recent success is a culmination of a soft revival of the CRPG genre, and Persona 3 remake and SMT5 are doing well for themselves. That doesn't point to a dying supergenre. It's not the top of the charts, but hits and success stories do not a "dying breed" make. It's totally understandable if you don't like them, but you don't need to act like they're "dead."
A dying breed would be something akin to classic Real-Time Strategy. Outside of Age of Empires 4, there's really not a lot of new blood entering the scene to revitalize it. Most people who play stick to some old titles, fan mods and free games like Mental Omega and Zero-K, or the hopes and prayers of small AA studios that are trying their best. Big hits are rare or remakes, and releases in the market can feel like a few times a year.
@@0freeicecream956 The Digimon World DS games are good. I hear Persona has a similar combat system, and it almost counts.
One of the best moments I’ve had in Palworld was when a Mammorest wandered into my base and I accidentally shot at it once and then seeing my entire horde of 12 pals completely unload into this beast that was 10 levels above them for 5 minutes.
I think what was also makes Palworld’s world less empty is there is actual reason to catch more of the same type of Pal. Either by giving more exp for each capture which helps you level up or by having efficient pals work in the camp. That was kinda my problem with LA where as soon as I caught most mons there really wasn’t much incentive to catch like 10 more
Palworld is the perfect Combination of Rust, Ark survival, Pokémon, dark souls, and KZ manager.
And idk how to feel about it
This video is your best yet. Not because of the subject, or how funny and interesting it was. But artistically, its a total banger. You got so so so good with this!
5:40 that left one isn't a rip-off. They're both based on the same shapeshifting dolphin succubus cryptid. Only thing they have in common other than that is having a heart on their chest, but... y'know, succubus.
Palafin isn't a dolphin for no reason.
I mean, the fact that they're based on Succubi makes sense. All Dolphins are rapists after all
1:03
Hey, don’t call me out like that.
0:37 The date on the calendar💀💀
A huge detail no one thinks of is. Each pal has a unique emote for every job they do. From carrying things to hammer animations. They all have their own unique things that probably took a very long time to animate.
15:01
no.
stop that.
never draw that again.
enough.
Ok I have to speak up because you made a claim that people have been falsely spreading for months and I'm tired of that false claim. Craftopia is still getting plenty of updates. May 14th, May 1st, April 15th, April 9th, April 4th, April 2nd, March 29th, March 25th, March 15th (with a statement on the future development), March 13th, March 8th, March 1st. And that's just the last 3 months. Just because they're behind the unstable version doesn't mean they're not happening.
So how long do you think Palworld will be in early access?
@@serpentblader0957 Does it matter? Project Zomboid has been in Early Access for ages and is considered a great game. Same with 7 Days To Die.
Seeing how the opening of the video says "Palworld just dropped" and it's been 4 months from January it's safe to say that the script wasn't updated much since the start of the videos creation.
Its also important for people to know its not the same developers. Its the same company yes but the two groups have nothing to do with each other and there is no cross over.
@@rekrn12345 True. The games DO have different development teams.
Man I've been hungry for those tasty circle animations! Good to see you here man!
0:35 the date on that calendar is wild.
Smiling Friends type beat at 15:08.
Circleman is back to fill us with nice juicy content!
10:10'
no? the reason I picked up the game was because I absolutely loved the scene in the trailer where you had a cozy little cabin and your pals helping out doing farmwork.
I craved more of that... just living. farm sim-y thing.
You're definitely right about Palworld feeling like EA, but then you remember Scarlett and Violet is supposedly a finished gamed.
Palworld is the perfect Pokemon game
Then you should play ark
@@Woopor ...isnt ark buggier?
To give credit, a lot of the changes or combinations of Pokemon to create Pal designs are creative development of the concepts that made more sense, I mean the canonical rabbit has a flaming soccer ball. The fire fox looks almost like the male counterpart to Nintendo's design, in a weird way the design language makes it feel like a different part of the same world, as though these creatures coevolved or coexisted much as they do in the real world
Every creature collector could be accused of plagiarism. Its only the largest collector type game and has lasted the longest. Its also defeated many others that came out during its tenure namely Digimon. The fact would be that its only generating so many responses cause its a new idea: a silly, edgy, and low budget production that has really caught on and is actually fun. Pokemon and nintendo have just dropped the ball on making something new and fun despite being out for so long.
