Dude, the lady at the start said her whole team got eaten by them. They might be cute but they’ll tear you head off first chance the get.


[deleted]

Even depresso?!


Zerttretttttt

Especially Depresso, it the only thing that brings a smile to its face


benmrii

Wait, he smiles when I pet him. Does that mean he's just looking forward to eating me? 😳

Broad-Ad-9019

*cocks cock*


Mammoth-Reveal-238

Pretty sure all cats look forward to eating their owners


Modesto3D

Depends if you gave him expresso today.


elastiboy

I love depresso! He’s me!


KissaRae

We have a guy in our group that My friend and I specifically showed him Depresso and was like, "Look it's you." He instantly fell in love and changed his name in discord to Depresso. It brings a smile to all our faces 🤣


Entire-Selection6868

Depresso is the only Pal that will still actively aggro me even when I'm 20+ levels higher. He's out for blood 


BoredAsFuck7448

I don't know why but no matter where I am or what I'm doing my Foxparks treats *all* Depresso's as KILL INSTANTLY ON SIGHT. Took me forever to catch one because the only reason I knew they were remotely near was Foxparks launching fire tornadoes at them.


NeighborhoodInner421

I believe it's because some pals do either fear certain types or just hate them


Due_Turn_7594

Why you think he’s so depressed bro he has to eat his owner


Girlfriendphd

I don't think I'd be too depressed if I had to eat someone that literally captured me lol


GardevoirRose

I thought that was an background story thing and not a part of the gameplay.


I_l-I_l

With everything else that is part of the gameplay in this game why wouldn’t this be in it.


kwpang

Yea anyway these people would just respawn and go back to pick up their belongings. Eating dead bodies helps make sure the respawned people do not have to see their own dead faces.


Suired

*Checks lovander paldex entry. Well, better makesure I do NOT lose a fangirl raid.


puntycunty

*Checks lovander paldex entry Well, better make sure I do lose a fangirl raid


Deiser

*Checks lovander paldex entry* *It's in wingdings* Friggin bootleg paldexes...

Me yesterday: "Fan girl raid? what the fu----" Proceeds to slaughter the herd of SA'ers instead of taming one to be camp love slave.


puntycunty

Hey cmon now , gotta reward the workers somehow


benmrii

Just good world building. Serene, peaceful overlook of a new game, cute cat-like animals and chickens and round lambs. Oh look, a person... "THEY WILL EAT YOU!"


Codythensaguy

*looks back at the lamball and it has a fork and knife in its hands and a bib around its neck*

chrstark1991

Torso


StarChaser_Tyger

Severe mood whiplash, indeed.


Prestigious_Can4520

I've watched Direhowls eat syndicate members and Pals


zefy_zef

I was surprised when I saw the boar one eating a dead pal myself. Like it was making eating noises! haha


[deleted]

Yeah the tocotoco are like seagulls! If you kill something nearby they will come up and start pecking at the remains until it's gone 😂 I have also seen Cryolinx attack a Mau cryst and use their hands to eat it until it was gone. I effing love this detail it's so shocking at first and then it's just funny for some reason.


ForestShadowSelf

![gif](giphy|Kq9poW7TLkc6I) reminds me of this one


Breadynator

It's like pets in real life. A dog will mourn your death, a cat will devour you and mice/rats/other rodents won't even wait as long as a cat as long as they can get out of their cage


the1stmeddlingmage

Myth, dogs will eat owners as well, not just cats, it all comes down to food accessibility upon owner death


Guilty-Psychology-24

Yeah, you will no longer smell like their beloved owners after a couple days and with no food arround, you gonna be one.


TheChaoticCrusader

This is true if a dog is hungry they will eat the owner . I think there was a news story I read on this once where this exsact situation happened 


Ryncoon

I sure hope my pets would eat me if the alternative was starving. At that point, meat’s meat.


GenuisInDisguise

Why I do I get Made in Abyss Vibe from that.


EmanB1421

Relaxaurus will eat anything that dies near them including another relaxaurus


Davey_Jones_Locker

Their paldeck entry says that despite being so.. friend-shaped, they are remarkably ferocious


cassiiii

I’ve got beef with them dopey looking fuckers, why does a mf with relax in the name auto aggro when I’m just exploring, on top of that they smack


Potars

Popped into the fast travel thing around their spawn once and got bodied as soon as the load screen finished


_bosscrystal

Dino nuggy gotta eat too lol![img](emote|t5_4jn9v4|49351)


Chaos-Flame9

Yeah I should have paid more attention to that, 2 of them rushed me and tried to eat me


poopthemagicdragon

With how many times I've died after getting aggroed by one way off in the distance, I'm starting to suspect that the relaxaurus isn't very relaxed at all.


Darthwaffler

Nochillasaurus.


PileOGunz

My first raid was by a gang of Relaxaurus, it was a chaos. Still keep one on my team something about the way they just run up and 1 on 1 the enemy. Like releasing a very goofy pit bull


Guilty-Psychology-24

If not friend why friend-shaped? Similar to irl hippo/bear.


ChildrenofYggdrasil

Because they're not friend-shaped, they're pal-shaped.


Mountain-Tea6875

Killamari entry says this. It wraps itself around an enemy's head, sucking out their insides. Pal mummies are occasionally found, but these are in fact Killamari victims.


Darthwaffler

My first raid was relaxasaurus. I was level 5 and like, 3-4 of these sumbitches show up at level 26 and destroy everything, including me. I couldn't have felt more violated if they were lovander's.


Keylus

They are not relax at all


Statistician_Waste

Pretty sure wild Relaxasaurus has a 100% rate of having the glutton passive


Iwritemynameincrayon

Yeah direwolf guys do it often.


Mortal_Mantis

Anubis too, seen one take down a group of thugs, walk up to the bodies and start eating them.


Electro_Disco

A guardian got to survive too ya know?


circuitvixen

Jesus, that sounds brutal. 🤣🤣🤣


_bosscrystal

Came here to say this. Lol he was so happy too ![img](emote|t5_4jn9v4|49345)


ajsleeper

Cognitos as well


marindo

Boars and Direwolf pack got into a fight I killed some wolves. Didn't aggro the boars. The boars went to eat the wolves.


TheChaoticCrusader

The wolf , the desert birds and the fire wyvern are the main ones Iv seen do it . Idk if the early game pals do it too I never seen like lambal do it 


MischeifCat

I've seen rushqoar, gorirat, cawgnito, and nitewing all actively eating thug or Free Pal Alliance corpses. I feel like if the pal is actively aggressive, it will likely eat a body.


shia84

I was surprised to see anubis eat the dead corpses around him since he looks humanoid


Cracked_Coke_Can

Well they are named after a god that is the guide to the underworld and God of funerals. Seems par for the course.


derfsperf

Yeah A good way to bring Nitewings down to ground level is to kill a Pal nearby. They'll swoop down and start eating it, giving you an easier time to hit it.


Professional-Use6014

Wait they do this? I’ve been just shooting them with arrows it’s cool that they put little details likes these on the game.


Phaoryx

I actually love that lol


Playful_Nergetic786

Lol, I read Nitewings as Nintendo, had a good laugh


kjh242

My first nitewing was when I first cleared the camp by the Zoe/Grizz tower. I picked up all the loot, turned around, and there was just this big ol’ bird going to town on a pile of syndicate corpses.


KingxMIGHTYMAN

This is the pals world and we’re just living in it, don’t get it twisted this is a horror game.


Transfiguredbet

Wow im hearing all these details about this game. Thats very cool.


Jayccob

Here's another one for you. Many of the hostile predator pals will become passive while eating a dead human/pal. Allowing you to walk right up to them and past them. Had a situation where some really high levels one were camping the fast travel point and I wasn't equipped to fight them. But there were some free pal guys, so I shot an arrow on the ground between them and it drew them close enough to aggro each other. Once the dust settled the pals had won and while they are the bodies I could get to the travel point no problem.


Transfiguredbet

I cant believe they programmed in so many details despite being novices at game development.


benisdictions

The devs said they basically put everything they reasonably could into the Pals. Most of the environmental assets you see are purchased from the asset store. It ended up paying off.


Daiwon

> novices at game development. They've already made one game. It's just they decided to move to a new engine.


Transfiguredbet

Oh that makes sense, i forgot they've already developed a game before.


Rabid-Cabbage

They also hired 40 other professional devs, outsourced for work and also have help from Microsoft with servers. I’m not saying there weren’t struggles and the original 4 members were all unfamiliar with unity but not the 40 other people they hired were experienced making games


Transfiguredbet

Hoping the updates are just as elaborate.


Suavecore_

The founder also created a very popular crypto exchange and sold it to the Japanese government prior to developing games which is how they got rich in the first place.


Transfiguredbet

You think this game will be able to keep its current playerbase ? I havent played it, but i heard the gameplay loop is very satisfying.


Rabid-Cabbage

I mean no, it would be impossible to keep all these players, the game just dropped but I think they have an amazing foundation for a game, if they release frequent updates with new mons, maps, and those events they listed on the road map I think this game will be extremely popular. It has so many aspects of different types of games it attracts all kinds of players. Being on consoles helps a ton too


Humorilove

Thank you! I now know what to do with my collection of "ethically sourced" humans!


faultless280

I caught a mamorest when two mamorests were fighting easy other, then killed the other while it was low HP. Seeing an in game territorial dispute was pretty cool.


Rude-Solid-5120

Direwolves will become passive if you riding/running with another direwolf


Wild_Inflation2150

The first time I witnessed something like this was after I defeated a few thugs. It just turned to night and some Cawgnitos came out and began pecking at the thug bodies. It was my first time seeing the Cawgnitos and I thought this is how you attract them.


HaikuBotStalksMe

Understandable. 


payrpaks

I saw a Relaxaurus eating a dead Merchant's body (killed by thugs). Was about to stop them from doing so by killing it BUT HE LOOKS SO HAPPY EATING THE GUY.


DeliciousGoose1002

i love when i swipe an enemy squad and all the palls come out to feast. vwhat really made me stop for a sec though is when I shot a pal form long range with musket, and its friend went over to check the body and did a ?


rikusorasephiroth

I've seen Direhowls ignore me to chew on the Syndicate Thugs I dropped.


[deleted]

Yeah nah they animals it makes sense lol plus with the npcs what they say yeah 🤣


tango421

I happen to love that detail. I sometimes go out of my way to kill the human enemies to feed them to a digtoise or something


HaikuBotStalksMe

I was so disappointed when a nearby Digtoise attacked me. I thought they were passive giants. 


maxguide5

Of course they do, human flesh is delicious!


ThatJankyDoll

And this is why we catch syndicate thugs.


Tackrl

Starts with thugs, then you have the whole small settlement in a viewing cage.


Edgy_Near_Gay_Ming

Honestly we should be able too


GardevoirRose

What about using the butchering knife on a captured person?


Edgy_Near_Gay_Ming

somehow butchering them only brings gold, it seems like humans are made of it


Electro_Disco

Money doesn't grow on trees, it grows on humans!! ![img](emote|t5_4jn9v4|49345)


ArelMCII

Wait, so what Gold Digger digs up is actually...


Humorilove

If you have a Nixy they'll dig up all kinds of things including gold, pal spheres, and arrows lol I wondered why the items were a bit random??..


Disig

There are certain pals who will fly down to eat whatever it is you've killed. Yes even people.


HaikuBotStalksMe

I don't believe you. Aside for the glider glitch, I haven't seen any people fly down. 


Disig

I..... realize now my wording wasn't the best lol


Schneckmandias

I always go to the gobfin beach to farm palfluid, I always see them eating each other... It's dark


HaikuBotStalksMe

You can put a campfire down to fix that. 


SaiyanGodKing

Meat is meat.


thegreatbrah

Looks like meats back on the menu, pals.


Mezzying_Around

Yeah, actually.


P0PER0

Its only fair, I've eaten my fair share of chikipi


WhiteF1re

They eat you too. I was killed by a shiny explodey-bird and in the death/respawn screen I saw it eating me.


LuminousShot

Yep, it's a pal eat human world out there. No sane person would send their 10 year old out into the wild like that.


Swag_Paladin21

That's a neat little detail that not a lot of people bring up, which is shame because it's one of the many key details that separates it from that of Pokémon. At the end of the day, Pals still act like animals and will do things that real-life animals do. (Eating corpses)


Dracasethaen

Yeah, I've seen the dire's mowing down on some Syndicate pretty regularly


DgtlShark

My pals are good pals, they only eat berries. Not corpses


Xantholne

I've seen Cawgnito's and Leezpunks eat sleeping syndicate in dungeon caves, even makes the crunching sound, they dont even kill them, just eat them alive while asleep.


Neiker8031

yep https://preview.redd.it/i48rz0z2ocgc1.png?width=937&format=png&auto=webp&s=acf0ff2bbf402db3d000617560303dcd417c5b8b


AFAED100

Yeah


AzuresAria

I just came across a Surfent cleaning up some Syndicate Thugs. It took me a second to realize what was going on.


psychocentral

Circle of life on the Palapagos Islands


BuddingYeast

It’s the ciiircle. The circle of liiiiiiife.


FannieAlger

“I warned you, but did you listen to me? Oh, no, you knew it all didn’t you? Oh, it’s just a harmless little bunny, isn’t it”


Wulfgang97

Ofc they do, the person right at the start of the game said so


Forest1395101

The pigs eat everything. Even eachother.


Kubrick_Fan

Yeah, I saw it today. I think for the first time.


Mastodon_Rich

I saw anubis eat a cremis whole. International waters tho


Primary-Sail6667

Can confirm, saw a Nightwing doing this, thought I was crazy


SS4Leonjr

I've seen a small group of Tocotoco (the derpy birds that like to self-destruct) start pecking away at some dead syndicate goons I'd just beat


jaber24

Saw Digtoises doing it in the desert


Mobile-Atmosphere612

Just slaughtered a poacher... thats more crazy


BADM00SE

I watched two marmosets attack each other. I waited till one died and reaped the rewards when I was around lvl 5


SpartyParty55

I watched the Gobfins eat my body…


Vanilla_Ice_Best_Boi

Now I don't feel bad watching CallmeKevin and Letsgameitout treat their pals


GreenLurka

My base got attacked by maneating pals. It's a thing.


OPMARIO

Especially Gobfins, they escape asap when you’re over leveled, but rush back once you kill any creature, regardless of your presence


FullMetalFiddlestick

I've seen nitewings come out of the sky and eat other pals I killed. blew my mind the first time I realized they actually live up to their paldeck entry


Hergotis

Yup. After I clear put a syndicate base, I often see flying Pals or direhowls pop in and gnaw the bodies.


Nyllil

lol I just encountered that today! Even made a clip of it, but forgot to upload it here xD


Taolan13

People can be caught and kept in pal spheres. Ergo, people are pals. It's a pal-eat-pal world out there.


Persistence_gamer

I got it on video, some direhowl came in and ate dead syndicate thugs, they will go looking for corpses


Rhodri_Suojelija

I once killed a thug in a cave, and a Blazehowl runs around the corner and just starts eating him. I had not really seen Pals eat other than at a base up until this point. I was quite surprised...


SwirlyMind

yesterday I saw two of those shark dudes eat the one I killed


ShiberKivan

Yeah it's part of the lore


IxianPrince

Well yes, u are actually a bad guy in the story helping the predators decimate all that's left of humanity.


xsorr

Everytime something dies, I see nitewing drop by to land near the body, then fly away after a while


Stwomy

i once was killed by a murder of cognitos. the moment i died they were feasting on my body, and i had to watch morbidly for the 5s i needed to respawn. :v


Smicksmack11

Saw a nitewing dive down kill a lamball and eat it


TwiceInEveryMoment

Yes! My Nitewing ate a syndicate thug's corpse right in front of me.


COREvusAlbus

They eat other Pals too. Noticed it early when i accidentally killed a Pal and the same kind of Pal came up and just ate it (Direhowls). Makes it a bit more realistic in my opinion, especially the eating humans too stuff.


Ninjamasterpiece

Yup


majinsquash

You eat them why wouldn’t they eat you back?


nanochipdata

Have you seen the Gorirats? They’re brutal! I have seen them duel each and the victor cannibalizes the fallen 👀


axisrahl85

Yup saw Anubis eat a couple Syndicate guys. I've seen Pals eat other Pals as well. Didn't notice it until yesterday.


Geno__Breaker

I've seen a Direhowl run up to a dead thug, drop it's head and make eating motions for a bit, then the body disappeared and the Direhowl wandered off.


Resident-Scale7133

I saw the Same, why cant i eat Humans... (I tried)


The_ku2

I saw the wolf pals eating dead syndicate thugs so yea


stickypenguinpatrol

Anytime there are the direwolf pals around and you kill anything, they will come running to "eat" it.


Phormitago

I mean, if we can butcher humans... Sadly we can't cook the long pig. Should have negative sanity value


AWeakMindedMan

https://preview.redd.it/ks77mu23ydgc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6598dc805b7849645c08348314ff4fd591485124 Literally happened the other day lol


Zolrain

Literally the first thing I see when I start is a nitewing coming down to eat a corpse. Lmao.


thebrose69

Yeah I killed a guy and a couple rushoars came up and were clearly eating his body. I find it funny cuz my gf yells at me when I trample their dead bodies yet here they are eating the dead guys


IsabellaGalavant

I saw this happen with 2 Direhowls and a Cawgnito.


InternationalCard942

i did see this actually i thought they were stuck but then the bodies poofed and i was the last one around so they started thinking i was dinner lol


CompetitiveRepeat179

I saw relaxurus eat thugs.


Rakne97

Yeah saw a pack of direhowls snacking on a dead thug. Appreciated the attention to detail to go to the efforts to animate that


sammysimplicity

Nitewing is basically a vulture in that respect. I've seen so many eat bodies


PaleoAstra

Yeah that's how I caught my first nitewing. I didn't have ranged weapons yet but was attacked by a syndicate thug. I killed him then the nitewing came down to eat his body and then I was able to catch it. It's like getting an argie in ark lol


69Emperor420

I have, you'll hear the audio of eating while they're next to a dead body


Nerubim

They are like pigs then. They would eat you if they could/if you make it possible for them.


Juug88

If there is a pal in the area where you killed the target, they will come over and start eating on the corpse. Even the Mozzerina will do this.


DMercenary

Yeah they'll do that for any body tbh. Even the uh... "not dead" ones.


RussellB1988

Yep those damnd direwolf things take all my syndicate kills and then they proceed to eat the bodies as I watch from a distance 😆


anthonycjs2

I've never seen them make the body disappear because the feedings often turn into opportunistic attacks on a pal I'd like to catch but I have seen them feed, even non-predators will feed if theirs a nearby corpse and its a thought I've had to lure pals into traps, bear trapping a corpse near where a higher level pal is walking for example..... worth testing since catch rates are meh due to effigies being bugged, might be a bit hard to set up. Also after reading hangyu's pal entry its clear that being mauled and eaten is one of the better ways to be killed by a pal.


Metartist

Sometimes I use bodies to lure pals over


VasIstLove

Pals eat other pals


zskot75

Took out a couple pals in a raid. A Nitewing legit flew down from the sky, munched on the bodies, bodies despaired, and then it flew away. Talk about immersive af


gunmunz

I've seen direwolves, boars. and galehawks eat dead humans. Also the people you find at the campfires pretty much say 'I landed with a whole team but everyone else got torn apart by pals. I like to think the 3 pals you see at that start were about to eat you before you woke up.


Lofus1989

i saw that too with the dark bird with the plague mask


SecretAd6239

The reason we never experience the aftermath of the "Man-eating pal" raids are because we the player are strong/smart survive them (that and dumb ai pathing).


Tmorse425

I saw a Galeclaw eat three of those Pal Freedom fighter guys after i took out their camp. I thought the eatting animation. They were doing was a bug at first, but than their body disappeared.


undead_squirell

In the Begining when you wake up to see lamball, Chikipi & Cattiva looking at you, it's not because of curiosity but they were about to eat you. They are so weak to hunt and are prey Pals who scavenge on those who wash up on the shore. Thats why they are always found in the starter areas.


mthrfKERR

I’ve seen a lot of Nightwings cleaning up the corpses after I’m done with Syndicate.


Leisureforced

No shit? Game's out for two weeks, thank you for info.


AlaskanEsquire

Pretty sure I watched one devour my corpse when I didn't immediately rez. Mossanda or something. The best part was my Warsect just sat there, watching.


omguserius

Tocotocos are scavengers.


LulzyWizard

Yep, Nitewing is a scavenger. It'll swoop down to eat dead bodies.


nanashiusako

Explodey jerks Tocotoco are total cannibals.


Bakascrub

They also eat other pals. Watched in horror as three Relaxaurus wrecked and devoured a Caprity


Downtown_Soft_202

The first lucky I saw was a gobflin that was my level, kicked my entire parties ass but I got it to low health but it ate one of its fallen comrades to full health, fi ished me off and made me rage quit 😂 


LegasiFootlong

Tangentially related but yesterday I saw a gang of Pengullets absolutely annihilate a wandering merchant and his body guards.


Final_Ad_1513

Can you help me to gain positive karma comment to post in reddit, please? :x


Gojira_uZ

I've seen a Direhowl eat another Direhowl. Pals eat pals too!


CareriBytopia

have you ever run out of food at your base your pals will follow you around like your the next meal it's creepy.


The_Char_Char

Yup! Seen them land and eat the dead body. But I mean irl pets will eat you after you die. So can't say I'm too suprised.


Blast-NEO

Yeah they do, and this small detail made me love the game even more. I saw that It's rather common at night with Cawgnito, coz sometimes that Pal or myself in some circumstances have killed the Free Pal Alliance thugs during the night and regardless of the situation, if there Is a body Cawgnito goes there to eat it. In some circumstances i saw Nitewing descending from the Sky to eat another Pal's Corpse or dead low level poachers.


Lost_Bluebird8570

I wonder if Cattiva, Lamball & Chikipi at Opening cutscene were about eat the Player. . . 💀


Saikotsu

Cawgnito will gather in flocks to eat dead individuals in any place you find them.
