As much of a mess it can be at times, I’ve had more fun playing Palworld than any recent Pokémon games.

One of my facorite features of Palworld that i wish other survival games would adopt, is that if you place resources in a container within the border of your base you can access those resources from any crafting table in the base.

Nintendo: is that not a black Lucario?

Lawyer: naw..that’s Anubis.

Built a base near the giant elephant boss … he stumbled in at level 18, killed most of my pals, but I ended up catching him 17 levels early 😭 it’s pretty solid for an early access.

This is a better experience than most of the shovelware survival crafting games on Steam. As long as it isn't permanently in early access, and doesn't get abandoned, I'll be happy with it

They really have a gold mine in their hands right now. If they keep the content coming and really flesh out this game it’s going to be incredible

When Jake said he isn't info Survival games normally but this one got him hooked, I felt that something about it doesn't feel as boring as other survival ark types especially with friends

I think it’s plenty interesting. If you stop thinking about what it copies and just immerse yourself in it, it becomes its own thing. I’m greatly enjoying exploring the world, slowly building up my base, meeting all the Pals one at a time. It’s funny cause if you stop caring about which Pokemon they imitate the Pals begin to shine.

Being able to ride, swim or fly on a mount and still be able to attack or catch pals while on the mounts is a overlooked kudos.

The devs are hiring. Immediately after Palworld's release, I saw in their news that they're looking to bring on new members into their company.
That speaks loads on them wanting to make sure this game gets the development it deserves!

[danielknapp]

Wow. He did not even mention the best feature: capturing humans!

A fleshed out story with missions, small boats, cities and combat arenas would sell me completely.

30hrs in so far. I like the small details they added like before a fire pal goes to sleep, it will go around my base and light all the torches for the night. Some of it is comical like seeing a tiny fluffy pal defend a base with an assault rifle. All around crazy and fun game.

[NocturnalAce]

If Pokemon addressed the void in the gaming market then Palworld wouldn't exist because wants and needs from within the market would have ALREADY been properly met.

But Pokemon did not address the void in the market, so Palworld addressed it for them.

I hope Palworld continues to be an example of what happens when you neglect the market and ALLOW competitors to do a better job than you.

Palworld deserves every bit of success that it's getting.

So here’s my take and perspective. I came across Palworld through a friend after it’s release as he described it as Pokemon with guns(more like Pokemon with survival) which is intriguing and surprising that Nintendo hasn’t jumped on this themselves cause the people clearly want it. Going into it I thought the game looked familiar and came to realize the developers also developed Craftopia (breath of the wild clone) not a bad game but when comparing it to Palworld it’s just not as put together. It would seem that Palworld has received more love and has more intricate features even in early access. It also gives a very comforting feeling reminiscent of playing games as a kid. This mindless excitement. What’s there is good but definitely needs to be fleshed out in the long run. My main concern is that both Palworld and craftopia are both in early access. I wish they’d finish what was on one plate to solidify the core gameplay, identity, and world a bit more. But I’m no game developer. Palworld is definitely the most exciting survival game in my library currently. It definitely has some faults and buggy moments but is definitely worth supporting. Looking forward to its growth and full release🤘🏽

Palworld scratches the itch that OG Pokemon gamers have been wanting for so long. There's so much potential here, and the fact that it's not limited to dated hardware like the Switch is huge too.

[AxelKjolhede]

As a Pokemon fan, I can confirm that this game has achieved what Game Freak should have accomplished a long time ago, and I'm really enjoying it.

[DuncanBentleyOfficial]

Palworld is what happens when you mix nostalgia with a bit of insanity. And I'm totally here for it! 😍🎮

[nyogplays]

I was skeptical of Palworld at first, but after starting my playthrough of it, I've come to love it! There are so many features I wish Pokemon had, that I can explore and play with in Palworld :) That being said, I still also love Pokemon too <3

[MikeAzul]

I really hope the Pokémon company can’t sue and ruin this game. Wayy better than Pokémon, their games have been extremely babified and stale for about a decade
