For real tho, would Palworld and the recent Digimon be popular if people weren't pissed at Pokemon?Just wondering, cuz if the games were unanimously good like old gens, would people even care about other monster catching games? Cuz they for sure didn't during old times.
Can't say about Palworld, but Digimon has been getting video games and media since the 90s so it obviously has always been popular

>>58545942Digimon? Yes. Palworld? Not at all.
>>58545942Pokemon has never been good, it's just that more people are starting to realize it as other franchises are outpacing them.
>>58546077are they tho?
>>58545942Palworld would have never been able to run if Pokemon had ever learned to fucking crawl. The only reason there's ever any fight in the 'mon sphere is because Pokefans are shitty they never get anything they want.
>>58546087Pokemon doesn't even have voice acting, which half of the fanbase doesn't even want because they know Game Freak will just cut corners somewhere else to fund it.
>>58545942People had been waiting for TS since 2017. Anticipation was through the roof. Bandai had also been investing more in Digimon since 2020. It has a massive fanbase in China. TS was always going to be popular.Palworld is just a dime-a-dozen indie meme game that would have fizzled out long ago if Nintendo hadn't lost their minds with greed and engaged in blatant lawfare and patent trolling against it.
