I have not played Palworld but I love that it has exposed the greed and capitalist rot of the company that makes Pokemon. Seriously, the “old guard” video game giants like GameFreak, Valve, etc. are putting out lazy content and sucking up billions from micro-transactions, lazy retreads, and subscriptions. It’s just funny to see capitalists be bad at capitalism.
I’ve seen real artists get caught up in AI witch-hunts so many times now I’ve lost count.
Not much is more demoralizing than a twitter horde calling your legitimately made art fake.
More of a general principle than Palworld specific though.
