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.

AGREED

Andromon from Digimon Adventure

Please note I don't support this game for the slaving mechanic nor do I want to support it. This is about if the game would've actually antagonized and punished the player for going down that path.

Had this game not have a crazed mishmashed of Pokémon designs alongside emphasizing and enabling the player that enslaving Pals and humans makes the game "better", it should've been an evil route. Basically, this evil route is like a "automatic option" to hard mode, making it as a form of punishment for the player for committing such acts.

Taking the evil route, NPCs views on the player have changed into hating them and going against them as they acknowledged the player for enslaving humans and Pals. The two has a higher chance of revolting against the player and refuse to do any work for them. Everyone in the game is out to get you.

But too bad the real game isn't like I what I said. Oh yeah, I don't know if anyone before me mentioned this, but there's no NPCs that commit to enslaving humans and Pals, only the player does it. I've heard there's NPCs designated as villains but I don't think they're slaving humans and Pals.

Edit: Nope! Apparently they're not just giving you the option to mistreat your pals, you get railroaded into it via "pay to win" but now it's "enslave to win" because not enslaving them makes the game a ton slower. The exact same formula that's despised across the board when it's demanding money, but now it's demanding slavery, and that's seriously fucked up.

Original post:

Undertale: literally gives you the option to commit genocide.

no one flips their shit and says the game is endorsing genocide. It is constantly celebrated and unavoidable because everyone loves the series so much.

Palworld: gives you the option to mistreat your pals

suddenly everyone is on board with PETA-style claims that this game is endorsing animal abuse. As though all of the same criticisms haven't been lobbed at Pokemon since day 1...Pokemon, where you're literally beating and catching animals to fight them.

I think people should just admit they're mad about having proof that modern Pokemon games are shitty glitched messes that they shouldn't be wasting their money on because the company is lazy and greedy and can't make a playable game even with millions of times the budget and manpower of some random indie game that's parodying them.

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.
