I Wouldn't Say This Was My "breaking Point" But Dang That Saddens Me A Lil When I Found Someone's Post

i wouldn't say this was my "breaking point" but dang that saddens me a lil when i found someone's post outside of this site wanting to play that game (said post was made two days after it was released) instead of being introduced to digimon cyber sleuth where we got two monster dudes who looks like rc but are obviously different from his design other than being cyborgs in general.

though recommending cyber sleuth as another game to play besides trying out that one isn't a bad idea.

This reminded me that I had a dark theory if the Spark is the lifeforce of a creature and if it gets badly damaged, they'll start to cease function and die. Thankfully, Planet Feral's core has this said energy that attracts Sparks to the planet can revive and reincarnated them into a new form from using the planet core's energy so they can live a new life.

I didn't know there was canonical explanation if they managed to survive with a cracked Spark.

“valiance of sparks damage and disability”

WAIT is this really something that can happen to us if we go to battle?!

If you said you haven't seen much of it at all, let me tell ya, there's an option where you can capture humans in the Pal Spheres and enslave them and there's some people who unironically love that mechanic. Whoever loves said mechanic shows what kind of person they are.

I don't understand what the big scary deal is about Palworld. Given, I don't know much about it, so I may simply not know enough to understand. But some criticisms I've heard simply confuse me.

I have seen people express upset because the pokemon-like critters have guns. But, uhm...

That's nothing new. Digimon did that twenty years ago, and nobody cared. (As a matter of fact, I think there was actually a Digimon that was literally made entirely out of guns.)

People also seem mad that the critters are basically slave labor. Which, hey, yeah, that's pretty dark, but:

1. I thought they were animals? Do we not still have oxen pulling ploughs around irl? But maybe there's an aspect of Palworld I've not seen...if so, let me know.

2. The game everyone compares this game to--Pokemon-- is literally a dogfighting game. You are pitting two animals against each other and making them beat each other up. Is THAT not slavery? Is that not abuse? How can you suspend disbelief for one game and not the other? I don't follow.

I think that people are upset that you can eat the critters in Palworld, too. If so...does no one remember this moment of Pokemon Season One?

Besides, people eat meat. Meat comes from animals. I feel like maybe being reminded that your food once was alive, that sacrifices were made for your upkeep, isn't a bad thing.

I understand criticizing the game for being unoriginal (to put it lightly) is utterly valid, but I can't fathom how it could possibly be the violent, grimdark nightmare people say it is.

That said, I haven't actually experienced the gameplay past about two hours, so perhaps there's some other horrifying aspect of the game that I'm missing. If there is, then I'd like to know. But based on my limited experience with the game, a lot of the responses I see just look like pearl-clutching.

Those guys don't wanna try cause' they're allergic to said series just cause' you can't enslave them with humans too, my gawn it really does show those type of fans are unaccepting jerks judging by how they love that mechanic within that game.

I don't get the people touting palworld as a clever deconstruction like no it just sucks. If you want a monster franchise that's sort of fucked up and yucky and weird and has guns and wants to talk about how war is hell. AND is actually fucking good and has a heart instead of just being like "lol look at how SHOCKING and CRAZY we're being". Digimon is right there.

I can understand your pain that this Digimon doesn't get that much fan art...

It hurts when you're a fan of a Digimon who has never debut in a anime or a manga for that matter.

Ayo @abridgilliance pls don't block me for interacting w/ you it would be real cool to have the full art of this guy Aldamon too but I'm not going back
