Sell this game to me without sounding like a furry gooner.
the pals are hot.
>sell the furry gooner game to me but without sounding like a furry gooner
>>743295567>gooner
>>743295705He doesn't like goons.
>>743295567Ark with pokemon instead of dinosaurs
>>743295567have you ever wanted to play Pokémon but didn’t actually want to play Pokémon but instead wanted a open world survival crafting game insteadwell here you go
>>743295567The "trainer" is more involved in combat, and not just T-posing in the back giving orders. The game feels more dynamic to me with that simple change.Creating and customizing a base in your free time is fun, is that is your thing.
>>743295629>>743295658thread's not off to a good start
Then I would have to not talk
tried watching gameplay and it was the same pick up sticks and rocks and stare at a menu from a table , I'll give it a try but seems like yet another overrated slop game for plebs
>>743295567i really wanted to like the game since i like pkmn>get into game>craft pick axe>craft ball>catch mon>craft him a bed>craft you a bed>craft, gather, repeatwhere is the fucking game at? It felt like completing an instruction manual. i learnt nothing about the world, my goals, my enemies or what im trying to achieve.zero plotline or anything its just a "sandbox" so i guess make your own fun or something. But isnt that what i pay the fucking game designer for?idk if you like crafting autism maybe its good. I refunded.
>>7432984361.0 added a lot more story to explain some things, not that it's a great story, but it does have a plot.
>>743298436Its a game for autistic trannies who see nothing wrong about another survival crafting slop
>Early access game>Survival mechanics AND crafting!Only a retard could say no to this.
>>743297349The game has an audience and you're not part of it
It's a less shitty ARK. You spawn in and punch pokemon to death which is mildly funny. Then shit sucks for a while as you grind and build a really shitty base in a really shitty place. All the weapons feel bad and Pal V Pal combat is only okay.Then you unlock the musket mount, and shield. Clicking heads fucking rules and the shield allows you to absorb one hit so you start going for mons and exploring far beyond your means. The mount makes traversal quicker too. Always something new to see and new mons to catch. Pretty fun
>>743298436>anon's first survival game
>>743295567You can shoot furry creatures with a wide array of firearms.
>>743295567As someone who is not a weirdo gooner or someone who has an obsession with loving/hating Pokemon, I'd say the game is pretty good.Keep in mind it is like $30 or whatever. The animations/graphics are really cheap and a lot of the assets like guns/swords are CLEARLY asset packs they bought. The Pals are interesting and kinda fun, but there are ironically too many of them with too little focus on each. Pals really needed unique moves, not just a unique passive trait. Also as you level up every move just becomes "Element but AoE"The fun part really is just exploring, finding new pals, and then building your bases and automating tasks with Pals and balancing their happiness and stuff. There is fun in having a whole production line set up. I think if I played more survival crafters my opinion would be different though.
>>743301724>The animations are really cheapWhy lie? Palworld is hands down the game which has the most unique animations for each creature and they are good animations.Just from the top of my head they have >Basic standing animation >3 idle animations >1~2 sleep animations>Pet animation >Eat animation >Taunt animation >At least 2 attack animations >Hurt animation >1 animation per work suitability >Evade animation >Walk animation >Run animation >Swim animation (if not flying/floating)Is honestly fucking insane how much detail each pal has.
>>743302381Look at any reload animation the character has, or any swinging animation. They're all asset & animation packs. I would say that if the player character is basically using all premade animations bought from a store (that don't look that great) it is a sign of having cheap animation.Also, I think it is hilarious that the pistol is a fucking Deagle. The game has no underlying art style due to these asset packs.
>>7432955673D Terraria-like base building open world game filled with sovlful little guys you want to be friends with and cattiva
>>743302581The player character is the least important thing about Palworld.Like, do you even care how the MC is animated in literally any other creature collector game?
>>743302762The game is a 3rd person shooter where you're constantly looking at the player character. Also, with the nature of the combat and Pals being AI companions, you honestly do look at yourself more than your Pal. You don't need to command them in combat, they just spam their moves off cooldown. In fact, I don't really know why you'd be sitting there and staring at your Pal instead of spamming dodge roll for the massive AoEs that some of the late game Pals have.I already said in my initial post that the Pals are interesting and fun. They are where most of the effort went to, understandably, but don't pretend like it is Pokemon where a large part of the game is looking at my Pokemon as I select moves. I am shooting an enemy with an assault rifle in the face while my Pal slams thunderbolt.
>>743295567You can make the furries do all the boring stuff while you go out and explore the world.
>>743298436The game doesnt really start til you beat zoey in the tower of rayne
>>743302984STOPDUPIN IS NOT FOR DOING WORKLET HER GO PLAY AND DILLY DALLY ALL DAY
>>743302924The player animations are serviceable, what do you expect the human body to move like? Of course the animations will be similar if not the same for every human character, did you expect the character to move in a super flashy way or something?
>Gear decay: OFFMan it is so nice not having to fix my pickaxe every few minutes of mining stuff.
>>743303241I would call them immersion breaking. The reload animations remind me, in combination with the art style, of Fortnite. As in, it looks like a lot of asset packs that are designed for indie devs to make games with an art style similar to Fortnite because it is cheap. It is immersion breaking because my character washed up on the beach and is now doing tacticool reloads with his handgun that is just a desert eagle.I also made it clear the game was $30. You're making a way bigger deal of the animations than I did in my post, in which I was really more comparing the players and Pals.
>>743303306why are you mining yourself in PAL world
>>743303494Because I saw coal in a dungeon and my pals mine the coal thing too slow.
>>743295567You shoot cute creatures.
>>743303494You really cannot rely on pal automated mining until pretty late on. I mean regular ore and stone, maybe, but Coal/Quartz are way too slow when you first get them. Going into dungeons gets you like 100x more than your Pals.
>>743303478I'm pretty sure you can only reload a desert eagle in 1 way, did you expect the character to juggle the gun in the air when reloading it or something?
>>743303494Because is the fastest and most effective way to get ores.
