  • Butchering your pals is less of a problem than enslaving other human beings.

    More to the point it’s just bad. It’s incredibly grindy, has an incongruous tech tree, and the A.I. (both enemy and ally) is trash. It’s also mostly a copy of their previous game, Craftopia, which was also bad and has been in Early Access for 4 years now with no signs of ever leaving it.

    I don’t hate Palworld because it’s a low effort Pokemon knockoff, I hate Palworld because it’s a low effort Ark knockoff following the same business plan of not finishing their previous game before abandoning it for their new game. At least with Ark you got to ride dinosaurs rather than store-brand Rapidash.







  • I’ve tried it and have a few thoughts:

    Initial selection is only 23 games, not sure why they’re not just releasing everything. I guess they’re planning on parceling the music out like their emulators.

    The choices of games are also kind of strange, like why 2 versions of Metroid? Why starfox 64 and not like Mario 64

    The ability to extend songs up to 60 minutes is pretty cool

    The idea of character specific playlists is interesting

    It crashes semi frequently, not a good sign.

    It does add value to the Switch online membership, but not much at this point.
