    I’m 60 hours deep on Palworld less than two weeks in while maintaining a full-time job. I don’t buy games to make statements, I buy them because they’re fun to play. And this particular one really is a ton of fun to play. Yes, they’re clearly ripping off pokémon and breath of the wild and elden ring, and I’m sure a few other games. But it’s a lot of fun nonetheless.

      Because that company is like 15 people.

      There are those among us who love palworld, but REALLY are not happy that we’re funding a business plan. That’s not what early access is supposed to be. I paid to support the development of craftopia not to help them build a foundation for the tech they wanted in palworld…

        Oh are they that small? Where can I look into that?

        How well did Craftopia do? If it wasn’t profitable, then how would they continue development on it? Seems like fans of Craftopia should be glad about Pal World and its financial success since that also gives Craftopia a better chance of continued development.
