[@darryljack6612]

In reagrd to the bugs, that is why it is in early access. The devs (who are a relatively small indie team) are giving us the chance to critique and give feedback for it's problems and issues. This is opposed to Gamefreak that releases a full price game, claiming it to be 100% finished, but still a buggy mess.

yeah i mean scarlet and violett probably have more bugs than palworld like i ran into a glitch that made me have to restart violett from scratch and also i havent got a single bug while playing palworld so far in single player so maybe its for multiplayer with the bugs

[@Spaxer]

Doesn't matter if you say it's early access this is what people have available to them. They may never say it's officially finished or it may take 5 years. It's the same issues devs have now like you're saying. Incomplete glitch games that are updated to then be stellar games.. people will judge what they have available to them not what is potentially available later.

[@Real_Name_Redacted]

​​@@SpaxerEarly access means not finished and buy at your own risk. You are buying into something, as a beta tester. Finished games have gone through quality control and are claiming to sell you a fully working, and polished game. One you are a beta tester. The other you aren't. By labeling it early access, they are telling you that you will be a beta tester. So you can make the decision for yourself if you want to buy into a game knowing that. Whereas the last few pokémon games tell you that the game is already beta tested, polished, and finished. Only for you to purchase it and find out after the fact that you are a beta tester. And that they will use you to find the bugs. At least Palworld was up front about it.

Plenty of similar monster collectors too, like MH Stories, Pocket Mortys, Monster Sanctuary (an amazing take on the concept mixed up with a metroidvania, absolute king indie). The only reason people are kicking up is because of Palworld has blown up with success. They don't care about the differences, they care about the similarities. If Nintendo or The Pokemon Company had high confidence they could sue, they would have already. They're extremely litigious when they know they'll win, but if there's a risk of failure, they'll ignore it. It's that simple.

So... It turned out months later that Palworld did steal, but not the designs, assets and visuals, they stole several patented game mechanics that are Nintendo's intellectual property and PocketPair is now being sued for multiple patent infringements because they didn't have Nintendo's permission for those game mechanics. And since it is not yet known what mechanics have been involved in this case, it is possible that many other games have been guilty of the same crime, such as Ark Survival Evolved and Ascended by Studio Wildcard, which is a similar game to Palworld but contains dinosaurs, anciet animals and robots instead of magical elemental creatures. What an interesting era.

The game seems LESS stable to you?! I'm not saying you are wrong, but that's not what I've experienced. Single player from the start ran pretty well with the occasional Pal glitching through the floor as the base loads in or them 'T' posing for a sec, also as the base loads in. But since the first or second update I haven't seen that yet. As for multiplayer, that was buggy as heck and has gotten slightly better for me.

Calling small budget 6 million is somewhat difficult to accept. Also not even close they are an indie studio with 11 people working on the game, tbf there is no clear definition of indie but if i had to make an comparison it would be hollow knight that had 3 people working on it which i reconsider indie.

[@slapEEEE]

I'll be honest, I feel like most of the issues you were talking about in this video, are because you were playing multiplayer. I have encountered very few significant bugs in singleplayer. The only bugs I've really encountered are, pals and other NPC's clipping into walls and such while fighting them. A sound bug where sometimes I'll get a water or fire sound that gets stuck and continuously plays, and the only way to fix it is to restart the game, which only takes like 10 seconds anyways. Lastly, is my own pals having buggy pathing and getting stuck on objects inside of the base, which in my opinion is the biggest and most annoying problem I've encountered so far. These are literally the only three significant bugs I've encountered so far, and the game is in early access, so I think it's safe to say that it's almost certain these will get fixed in future updates. As far as the game crashing problem some people have apparently been having, my game hasn't crashed once, granted I didn't play on launch, so maybe it was fixed? Either that, or it's a multiplayer problem, because again, I haven't experienced a single crash in about 100 hours of playtime playing solo. I do agree there are a few pals that blatantly ripped off an asset from a Pokémon and slapped in on something else, like the Meowth face, or the hair of that one pal, Azurobe I think. In these few instances, where they straight up ripped off actual assets from Pokémon, I think they should at some point, the sooner the better, go in and change those to make them more unique. The same goes for the breath of the wild icons and sound effects that are also ripped straight from Zelda, wouldn't hurt to change those either.

Ppl who are harsh on this game still fail to understand that it's in EARLY ACCESS... Even still they are pumping out bug fix's like crazy and also working with Microsoft to get them out for the XBox players. I have over 200hrs in this game and I'm LOVING it. I cannot wait to see what else they do with Palworld ^_^

[@_bambi.ambie_1936]

I love it too! I dont get what the problem is with people and hating on this game

[@WalkWhenNecessary]

That was an amazing video. Thank you for putting that much effort into it.

[@Plsrateeight]

So the thing with the human Pals being invisible wasn't originally a thing, I noticed after one particular update they started disappearing when you threw them out.

[@penguinjay]

correct. I saw way less glitches, then they pushed a version fix to address some people's glitches, created more for other people. I'd say give it time. Game came out early access like 3 weeks ago. I don't think these people seem to understand that concept, you know, work in progress.

[@hang_in]

I see what you meant by higher quality videos. This was awesome!

[@MandyRosko]

Assets Stolen/Borrowed/Inspired by according to Wood: Pokemon (The big one), Breath of the Wild and Ark (Tied for second biggest) Horizon, Halo, Fortnite, and farther down the list maybe Dragon Warrior, Digimon and Genshin Impact. AND you forgot to touch on any Harvest Moon or Harvestella or Story of Seasons aspects of the game since you need the Pals for farming eggs, milk, honey, hunting meat, and growing your food to survive, and you can sell those items for Money to buy ammo in the desert town. Yeah, the game isn't original, but after all this, at a certain point, you can't say something along the lines of "Everything's been done before," and then give this game grief for doing everything at least ten other games have done. You have to admit it's a new game and there's probably little these other companies can or should do. Glad he admitted it was fun though, even if it seemed he was grudgingly admitting it, lol. I love Pokemon and Harvest Moon, but I've aged out of those games and I think that's why I love Palworld so much

[@DannyMinick]

Palworld has been more fun and addicting than anything Game Freak ever came out with, and I’m a Pokémon veteran. The closest thing to that level of entertainment from Pokémon was Legends Arceus. 😊

[@beefcheadle]

I really enjoy the direction you went with this video. This is high quality stuff man.

[@LungsOutJem]

We can't have an honest conversation about people ripping off Pokémon and not talk about why they changed the name to Pokémon in the first place.

[@VanessaLol421]

Wasn't it first called Capsulmon before it got changed to Pokemon?

[@LungsOutJem]

@@VanessaLol421 it was because there was already an American IP called something like "Monster in my Pocket," and they were trying to avoid a lawsuit from ripping them off.

[@VanessaLol421]

I’ve honestly not experienced even half of the bugs you have, and yes the lava is fixed now

Because he played online with a friend on a server, the game runs better in Singleplayer

[@namename2040]

When I'm playing palworld I'm not focused on how the game is similar to pokemon. I'm focused in playing palworld. Scarlet and violet was mid to bad I don't care about it. People keep complaining about the pals but there numbers keep skyrocketing so it seems like most people are complaining for the meme

[@mortimex]

Palworld got me questioning everything I know about games 😅🙃

[@inhumanename2903]

This is exactly my feeling about palworld! Yay for having someone to explain it so eloquently

[@volbeatowns]

Palworld is a work of art and I cannot wait to see where it goes.. This game has been the most fun in my community and friend groups and we cant stop playing. Excited for what the future holds!

[@_bambi.ambie_1936]

It really is!

[@TheZoenGaming]

Your gym plays music that the corporate chain has aquired a license to use commercially. Unfortunately, most of these corporations are run by people who just buy a license for what's popular at the time of purchase, i.e. Pop Music. Another unfortunate drawback to this is the fact that the local owner can't use music that he has purchased the license to, if he has any, because the gym is part of a corporate chain.

[@easiers]

Just when I was lookin for a video to watch, perfect timing Wood

[@Aegys619]

When he turned around at the 12 minute mark-ish, I lost it lmao.

[@tony10257]

Is he playing an older version of this ? I haven’t had any if these problems, especially the lava bit, when I run over lava I start burning lmao

[@beastslayer8729]

To be 100% fair to Pocketpair, this game was built on Unity tutorials and a dream. Now that the Early Access has given them some actual funding, I am hoping they will take some time to vary their designs and clean up the bugs. It's not quite the same as the Pokémon Company delivering a similar mess despite being the most popular game franchise of all time.

[@serpentblader0957]

No the current palworld was not created in Unity anymore it's actually made by an Unreal Engine now. The ones that they showed in trailers a year ago was made in unity, and the palworld that was released in early access is made in Unreal engine.

[@beastslayer8729]

@@serpentblader0957 Right, my bad. The statement should have been "Unreal Engine tutorials and a dream."

[@johnjenkins5969]

Has anyone seen that picture of the original dragon quest monsters? Funnily enough a lot of Pokémon have very similar looks to them too. And that came out years before Pokémon also. To me it's not theft unless you actually see Pikachu holding a machine gun or a player riding onyx through the forests in the game.

[@ForsakenFenix]

Put a Vixy in a Ranch, Free Pal spheres, Arrows, and gold. If You upgrade the Dig Ability You can get better Pal Spheres

[@ChillinWithTheCapuchins]

Man I haven't had any of these glitches. Its like you're playing a completely different game. I'm playing through Gamepass, is the Steam version really different or something?

[@Blackheartgamer1]

Honestly, a lot of the ones people are calling a stolen… i don’t really see it. Ex: Pengullet yah it’s a blue penguin but A. Penguin designs all tend to have similarities whether cartoons, anime, etc. B. The color blue is usually used on characters that have an affinity towards water and ice which Pengullet is. Colors matching elements is pretty standard character design Believe it or not Piplup is my favorite Pokemon and Pengullet is my favorite Pal. Honestly they are different enough for me not to consider the pal version stolen and i’ve seen many cute Penguin creature designs that are similar to both of them. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@toot7642]

I cant anymore with these mental gymnastics... If a game is fun, play it, if its not, dont, "o no one game is copying another but its somehow more fun, o nooooo", who really gives a sh*t

[@elliothorton8158]

Really great video, loving these high quality uploads keep it up

[@donavanandrews8012]

I think the only bugs I encountered now is occasionally pals still get stuck in my base when gathering and enemies some times clip into walls when I am in dungeons due to catching em too close to a wall. They are fixing the bugs which is something some game companies don't do. I never had bug with the humans they appear just fine for me. Unfortunately you can't catch the tower bosses anymore unless you revert patches. The glider is waste of technology points when you can use a pal to fulfill the roll however favorite of glider pals is Killamari. I think the only dispointment when it comes to boss or shiny pals is the fact team up skills make em appear as some normal sized pal.

[@LittleClay]

The thing about Palworld having glitches etc. is that its still in early access, whereas the pokemon games are meant to just be an actual full game (from a company with more than enough money to burn) absolutely no excuse for how awful and janky theyve been lately I still havent bought Palworld yet, ill probably wait and see the results of any updates and whether it comes out of early access or not, but i dont see how the glitches should really be much of a complaint about it YET

[@noggindude5012]

Pocket Pair and their logo is a Texas Hold ‘Em reference

[@sunsoar1822]

to be fair, it could be coincidence

[@anpancake]

Loving this new style of video, I'm starving for some good long form content these days

[@BitZapple]

I hate that the Microsoft Store (and Game Pass) version of the game is WAY behind in updates and doesn't even have DLSS and actual multiplayer servers while Steam has both plus less bugs.

[@breecat3428]

PSA: Vixy will dig up Pal Spheres when assigned to a ranch.

And a 4/5 star Vixy will dig up Mega Spheres. :)
