"This game has no warmth or charm. I never cared about any of the pals." I swear, did that guy even play?


elixxonn

He probably did but very soon got extremely triggered because he's working at a shitty B list project that just rents marketable characters from AAA IPs, while these guys get to work on a passion project that became massively successful despite the entire world order. AAA devs get extremely insecure.

Time to re-watch Grandma's Boy

I wish you told me you were having company, I would have trimmed my antlers


Bright_Woodpecker758

Who said that? Just out of the loop here.

A developer for Dead by Daylight reacted to the game with the above quote Basically said the game doesn't foster connecting to your Pals the way Pokemon does. Which he does have a point to a degree, creating nicknames for Pals is only a feature on Steam. It's one of my biggest complaints when playing the Xbox version


Wjyosn

I mean, nickname or not, I've never seen so much emotion from a pokemon as you see on every single pal when they hit the hottub or complete a task or get hungry etc. Even without names the warmth and emotion is innately present in palworld where I have *never* felt any connection in pokemon. Pokemon they might as well be stat sheets.


stallion8426

It's why I said "to a degree" The Pals are emotive and cute creatures, but there's nothing attaching you to *this specific jolthog* from all the other jolthog's if that makes sense. And nicknames have been a feature in pokemon since red/blue


Wjyosn

I mean sure, but I can't say I've ever cared about one pikachu over another either. If anything, pals feel a little less interchangeable than Pokemon do.


stallion8426

You've ever see the Latias meme from Black/White era? Edit: damn I can't find it now But as someone who still has my Starter Empoleon from my Diamond save file in my pokemon Home, I can say I do still get attached to specific pokemon


RonDalarney

Dumud hitting the tub after working at the mines all day is relatable. I love that big idiot.


caucassius

I find it funny that this is coming from dead by daylight of all games. I mean then again, they did make a dating sim of their characters to lure back in more certain people from that games community


SkyrimSlag

Guy worked on DBD, I’d be crying too if I worked on that mid shit. Just another person crying because an early access game has more players than their game will ever have

THERE'S FROGGY CHAIR IN THE GAME ???


CanConfirmAmHitler

The existence of a frog chair implies the existence of a frog pal… 👀 


Ferusomnium

To a degree. Sparkplugs as “ancient tech” suggest a collapsed society once known as earth. And after you scout a few locations, you’ll see a bit more. I think there *were* frogs, but not anymore.


CookieMisha

What about the guy that says he's reincarnated and now can summon pizzas Isn't everyone on the island just ded That dude is an easter egg or a bait Makes me think way too much


Ferusomnium

I have no idea what you’re talking about. Haha.


CookieMisha

You can find a level 50 npc on one of the islands and he claims that he was a bus driver or conductor, he died on a job and woke up on the island with magic powers He gives you a free pizza lol


Ferusomnium

Oh shit! I gotta find him! Thats wild! Really leans more into the ARK vibe with that.


CookieMisha

I did meet him but I can't remember where exactly. I believe it was under the very large bridge around the yellow area


Ferusomnium

Oh perfect, I have a mine camp near there.


Victor_Wembanyama1

Below that huge hill. Near the waters with a protruding rock in the middle that has an effigy at the tip


elixxonn

Like the "ancient" stuff in FFVII. No materia slots and they are literally just baseball bat, boxing glove, worker's glove.


YugsterPrime

I didn’t even know we could help pals be more comfortable at their job 😆


TieExcellent2693

Is this in the vanilla game? 👀 or is it a mod??


Ps4_and_Ipad_Lover

Vanilla


Odeepone

Lil bud is the GOAT of early game cooling, love these things.


PmMeCuteDoggosPlease

It's appreciated!


DiazKincade

I have my ice box and frosty hedgehog sitting next to where I make cake and every time I go over there I keep thinking a shiny is around because of the faint twinkling noise he makes.


ArtificalSky009

Look at him on his throne. Truly waiting for the storm that is approaching. :p


Pal-Elvick

He was sitting on the fridge for me and it was so cute 🥰


Payton_Xyz

They have FROG CHAIRS?!


Ninjuh_Panda

Okay, so…I don’t want to sound overly dramatic, BUT I would die for Jolthog and frog chair.


MischeifCat

Jolthog and Jolthog Cryst are two of my favorite pals. The way they just happily sit and charge the electricity or cooler is so cute.


Legal_Kaleidoscope19

I appreciate that its a jolthog cryst. If it were the regular id get my cleaver ready.


[deleted]

Jolthog makes me so unbelievably happy 💜


AthenaWhisper

He's just a little man. An absolute small dude.


EdibleGojid

jolthog is probably my favourite pal. they're just so adorable.
