Be honest with your critiques and claims. This video is both a vloggy rant about the discussion surrounding Palworld and my thoughts on how I would rank every pal based on "Originality." Like with just about everything ever, there is always more nuance than a tweet or two can get across. These are just my 2000 cents, maybe you can convenience me otherwise in the comments?

Ameterasu from Okami is NOT based on a kitsune! The kitsune does appear in the game, but Ameterasu is the name of the sun goddess and the form she has taken is a wolf, not a fox. Japanese wolves are extinct. Wolves were thought to have mystical powers and some were even worshipped as either deities or messengers of deities. The reason Ammy is fiery is solely because she's supposed to be the sun goddess.

I will go to bat for Floppie; it was shown in a trailer before Tinkaton's design was publicly known or even leaked. It could not possibly have been based on Tinkaton and the fact they look anything alike is simply a huge coincidence. It deserves to move up one tier at least, possibly even two because without the "Tinkaton fusion" elements it's not really that much like Sylveon either.

@Shadow-id8sy 3 месяца назад

I agree furret is such an unoriginal design of a ferret. all it does is change the fur pattern and flaten the face. At least chillet has a much more dynamic design and combination of creatures with the clear influence from axolotls and with far more exaggerated ears and a far more exaggerated facial structure and more sculpted body with a clearly thinner neck that expands into the body. Chillet is far more creative and original than furret.

@ytubestolemyhandle 3 месяца назад

don't you know? According to internet people (who are defo real people and not bots farming outrage clicks), Nintendo owns shapes of all anime-fied animals, color schemes and fantasy concepts. No, literally, try drawing anything, and there's some asshat with nothing better to do run it against 1000+ pokemon and xyz million fakemon to prove you stole something because the shape of the curve you used somewhere is similar to how someone else did a curve. At what point do people stop caring about baseless accusations? If everything is plagiarized, nothing is. You have several times bigger chance of winning a lottery than coming up with a completely original thing nobody ever thought of before. There are countless billions of pictures on the internet. And just how ppl stopped caring about being called nazis on the internet by the lefty activists for... literally everything under the sun, most people also stopped caring if something looks vaguely similar to something else. Except for ppl whose lives are so empty they have nothing better to do. And if it's parody, it's even more clear cut. It's just internet slobs have no sense of humor, only an incessant need for internet upvotes (or downvotes, clicks are clicks)

This kind of stuff just makes me wonder if it's less Palworld stealing from Pokemon, and more just Pokemon having a ton of super generic designs and over a thousand Pokemon (and especially counting megas, g-max, and Hisuan/Alolan versions) so you could have someone who has never heard of Pokemon or seen one in their life draw an anime creature with some sort of elemental gimmick and it would look just as much like a Pokemon.

For those who don't know. Sheep as well known to roll on Thier backs. When the wool gets too dense it can cause Thier balance to be thrown off and they will fall down and roll on their backs making it difficult to get back up. It is very dangerous for them to be near hills and cliffs because they can end up rolling down them. The idea of a sheep ball that rolls around comes from the cartoonist interpretation of this.

Its chest has that clothing piece. the face patter is fairly different. The tail is different. And the color scheme is different. Look at all the check features Lucario has that it doesn't. No shoulder wheels, extra spikes, fluffy shorts?, and no dread things. Rayhound is far worse imo and never gets talked about.

@soragami6247 3 месяца назад

I gonna bat for Jolthog here. Its not that its just copying Shaymin, its that they are both uninspired designs. They are both just an actual hedgehog, but the spikes are an element. Heck, pokemon made a better hedgehog inspired pokemon with Togademaru, the hedgehog is clear, but different enough. Shaymin is lazy in that its just hedgehog but literally hedge, the hedgehog shape doesn't even change, its head, its back, its legs, its all just real life hedgehog. If Jolthog had a another Pal thats supposed to be its counterpart, and that counterpart looks more like a deer, like how Shaymin sky form is, then fine I will accept thats its a copy. But it doesn't, its just an electric hedgehog. So in my opinion, its shouldn't be F tier. I do think that "Since its palworld" criticism is coming a bit too much in some of these.

I love the distinction that they're both unoriginal. Call it what it is. PalWorld is just Pokemon with guns. Down to the philosophy of stealing ideas. Pot taking notes from Kettle. That's what this is, and people need to stop pretending Pokemon is this innocent IP that hasn't done the exact same thing for a long time. You can love the games and series, and find originality in both, but there are clearly a lot of uninspired ideas here and there. If we don't have the courage to call them out, can we really take ourselves seriously as gamers? 6:59 Never forget this. Also, I love the design of Jolthog, and it may have one of my favorite abilities. I can forgive it's lack of originality for the ability to throw an exploding hedgehog at dudes.

When Palworld first came out, I was one of THOSE Pokemon fans, who saw the game as nothing more than a game that was likely made from spite towards the current Pokemon product, with the guns and slave labor basically being the developers saying "Look at what WE can do that you're NOT doing!" But after watching this video, especially the second half, I feel my opinion on Palworld has changed quite a lot. I've been a fan of Pokemon since Gen 2, but ever since Gen 6 or so, I've grown increasingly frustrated with the franchise for a multitude of factors. Asides from rushing each game, the franchise honestly feels stagnant, like it's permanently stuck in 1999, and still runs itself like a franchise from the 90's, with an apparent prioritization of selling merchandise over actually making quality products. It honestly feels like they are afraid to innovate, afraid to leave their comfort zone, like they're still worried about the early controversies like Jynx, Porygon and the Christian moms who thought the franchise was "Satanic", and decide to play things SUPER safe to avoid any potential controversy or lawsuits. If anything, that's why I think Palworld is so successful, partly because of the whole "Pokemon with Guns" novelty and meme, but also because it's doing things that Pokemon should have done a long time ago. Think about it, Gen 6 came out in 2013 and was the first all-3D (main series) Pokemon title, when it's contemporaries like Mario, Zelda and Sonic made the jump to 3D over 15 years earlier, back when _Gen 1_ was the current generation, when the franchise was in it's infancy. And that's just barely scraping the iceberg! We're currently in the 9th generation of Pokemon, and the 3D graphics look like they're from the Wii era. Pokemon Colosseum was released 20 years ago and it somehow looks better than Scarlet and Violet do... and that game wasn't even made by Game Freak! This is one of, if not THE biggest multi-media franchise in the world right now, it should be a leader and an innovator with that status, and yet the franchise still functions like it's an 80's toy-driven franchise from Hasbro, when even franchises from that decade like Transformers and TMNT have gotten with the times. Face it, Pokemon NEEDS to improve, and yet for some reason, it's not, and at the rate things are going, I don't think it ever will...

Orzerk has Garchomps head, bodyshape and stance - It's an Electric Orca Dragon instead of a Ground Shark Dragon, so it's literally the inverse, which is neat honestly.

The problem is Game Freak CAN'T make Pokemon good because they DON'T HAVE THE TIME to do so. TPC needs to stop constantly expecting the games to be a yearly release so that GF can actually have TIME to work on them. Either that, or they need to bring in ANOTHER STUDIO to aid them (like, say, MONOLITH SOFT??? The arguable KING when it comes to open-world exploration games (Xenoblade, anyone?)). Do I want Pokemon to be good? Yes. See Legends Arceus. While rough around the edges, I still had SOOO much fun with that game and I WANT them to make more Legends games and IMPROVE upon each one. But will TPC loosen their grip around GF's proverbial waist to allow them the time to make said improvements? NO. Cause all they care about is money. (and I presume they have to hold the 34+% percent to be the final say in every decision despite being a partial owner of Pokemon with Nintendo and GF, because if GF was truly the biggest shareowner, would they not have said "We are releasing Pokemon when we want to release it"? (especially given their other game they are STILL working on, btw) Or Nintendo? (Since Nintendo allows all their other IPs to be worked on and released WHEN THEY'RE READY to release)) I WANT GF to make Pokemon better and better. But until TPC lets go of their "We MUST release games annually because they HAVE to be connected to the merch/card game/anime/etc" mentality, then I don't know what GF can do outside of asking for more workers, more studios to help, or putting their foot down and demanding more time.

It could also take ideas from Metroids which are also tentacled beings that eat brains, but the first two ideas presented are definitely more direct.

Palworld reminds me a lot about my most favorite Shin Megami Tensei series ever, Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha. In there, you the "monster Trainer" are a main fighter who uses a gun (+ swords), you collect a variety of monsters to fight on your behalf in real time action style combat, and every monster has a type/family/category it falls under which allows them to do special actions out in the field. One of the funniest moments I ever had was when I sent out a tentacle monster of the Wind family using the special ability of the Wind family of monsters to Scout an area. During a Scout the Wind monster will fly off and after a few seconds come back to tell you about monsters you may encounter in the area and on occasion give you a random item it picked up, such as a health potion or a gem you can sell for money. Well, this one time, my monster, a demon that was just a floating eyeball with tentacles, came back from a Scout and I got the message "Ichimokuren came back with a pair of used underwear. ... you threw them away." 😆 Like, my dude, I don't want to judge by appearances, but do I even want to know how you got these!? 🤣

Pokemon came early and basically almost grabbed every cute design it would, then now when other stuff wants to be similar in style, it ends either pokemon ripoff, or ultra generic things out of fear of pokemon fans complaining (or Nintendo/game freak).

@Lukaz2009 3 месяца назад

This comment is a response to your closing statement: I feel like the sentiment "Palworld is what Pokémon should be" isn't the most accurate of ideas. What that sounds like to me is people wanting more out of the Monster Tamer/Creature Collector genre that isn't just more turn-based RPGs. Monster Taming/Creature Collecting has been stuck in this rut because the very roots of the genre, Megami Tensei, was itself a turn-based RPG. And no one has really deviated from those roots as hard as Palworld. Monster Rancher tried being different by being more of a simulation game. Didn't really stick around, though. (I think its still kind of relevant in Japan, but we haven't seen it internationally in a long time) Digimon World 1 was also more of a pet raising game, but Digimon also shifted towards turn-based RPGs as time went on. We can see a pattern begining to form. For Monster Tamer/Creature Collector games to be successful in the past, they needed to follow the trend. That trend being turn-based RPGs. Which caused the genre to stagnant. So Palworld is sort of a perfect storm of sorts. It entered early access at a time where the audience perception of the Pokémon games is at the lowest it has ever been. So people are actively looking for something different. ANYTHING DIFFERENT! And here comes Palworld to fill that void right when people were looking for it. I honestly feel that literally any game where you can catch and use monsters that wasn't a turn-based RPG would have the same people clambering for it. Palworld was just the first in a long time to see success internationally. But you also can't just make Pokémon into Palworld without the edge because Pokémon at it's very core is a turn-based RPG. That is a core part of its identity. And removing that core no longer makes it Pokémon. So the disappointment of Legends: Arceus being a turn-based RPG is honestly quite silly if you ask me. Because if people went into PLA with the expectation it wasn't going to be a turn-based RPG, then they never really wanted a Pokémon game in the first place.

@EclecticMEMES420 3 месяца назад

i started to play PocketPair's previous game Craftopia and I fully believe that the Anubis in Palworld is a throwback/easter egg to the Anubis in Craftopia. in Palworld, you create a statue to spend Lifmunk Essence to improve you player, and in Craftopia you can spend essence balls to improve your player by visiting Anubis. I fully believe that they weren't thinking of Lucario when creating Anubis, I think they just made the Anubis from Craftopia into a Pal and stylised it as a throwback. they're both based off Anubis, so similarities are obviously going to happen, and in this sole case when it comes to pals and pokemon, this one is pure coincidence.

I think the big thing that keeps bugging me about the Palworld vs Pokemon debate is so many people saying 'This is what Pokemon should have done already.' I wouldn't mind one bit if Pokemon made a more action/survival game as a spinoff similar to Palworld but I cannot stress enough how heartbreaking it would be to me if they just completely dropped turn-based gameplay for the mainline series. I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea, but being able to take my time, get to know what my mons can do, seeing them grow throughout the journey of the main game... It's Comfort Food gaming to me. I'd ESPECIALLY hate to see the state of Competitive Pokemon without turn-based combat, completely losing the strategic elements the system offers. I'm SO stoked folks who enjoy Third-Person-Shooter/Survival gameplay have a fun monster collector they can sink their teeth into... But I absolutely don't want mainline Pokemon to become that.

@auggie4269 3 месяца назад

I will say in regards to the ‘Pokemon never tries anything different’ thing, there are tons of spinoffs that do try different genres with Pokemon, but they often never sell as much as the main series, and it’s not due to a lack of quality in most cases. I do agree GameFreak should take bigger steps towards evolving the series, Arceus is a prime example of what they can do if they choose to. But I can also understand that straying too far away from Pokemon’s core tends to result in numbers that don’t compare to the basic turn based battles. I do hope that this does push them to consider trying further innovation or genre experimentation. If Final Fantasy made a smooth jump from turn-based to another form of RPG, Pokemon can too.

@manen2391 3 месяца назад

I think the main problem with getting rid of turn based gameplay for pokemon is that at the end of the day its still made with kids in mind, and younger kids have an easier time with turn based gameplay, it allows kids to understand the game better and not get frustrated to the point of not wanting to play it, yes would it be a nice change for older gamers yes, but I think the turn based gameplay is what allows pokemon to be a game for everyone

@nicodalusong149 3 месяца назад

I do believe it was said in a didyouknowgaming video that pokemon is purposefully made to be a game accessible to everyone. It has to be easy enough for kids to play and simple enough for old people to operate. Granted, on the old people side, we're talking mostly computer illiterate folks which was a lot of people 20-30 years ago so that might not apply as much now. On changing gameplay, it's extremely difficult because every single move is tied to the turn-based nature of the combat. Unlike Final Fantasy (and many similar games) where the turn-based combat fairly gives each side a chance to do their turns, Pokemon has turn-based combat where both sides choose their moves and the timing and order of actions is acted out. Pokemon battles then play more like Magic: The Gathering matches than traditional jrpg battles. (Put another way, pokemon battles simulate a full round of combat between the player and the enemy per action rather than doing a "my turn, your turn" thing.) Therein lies the difficulty (and also the reason why Pokemon Conquest made sense as a spin-off).

@_-Lx-_ 3 месяца назад

I hate they way people disrespect turn based RPGs. Pokemon being a Turn Based RPG isn't the issue, that's the series's genre, it's like being mad that mainline Mario games are platformers and not FPSs. Pokemon's issue is the severely sloppy incompetent management, half baked ideas, rushed releases, and unprofesional apathy. They are shaking up changes recently, and do have very good ideas at times, but never reach their potential due to being incompetent programmers/designers with impossible deadlines and work ethic. Scarlet/Violet have so many fantastic elements, but they're buried in a tangled mess of abyssmal coding, and half finished ideas, that ruin the experince for so many people and are a hard pill to swallow even for enjoyers. A rwal time Pokemon game cpuld be really cool, But SV's concepts were great and had creativity to them, issue is, it was never handled with any form of care, and was left a tangled broken mess without it's potential realized and so many glaring flaws weiging it down.
