>>55305345No matter what people are gonna compare it to Palworld is the thing, Pokemon has gotten too comfortable cutting features and halfassing QoL that it'll be impossible for people to not make direct comparison screenshots to Palworld when we see the trailers.
If the next game doesn't let you ride your actual Pokemon instead of random rental mons/a literal living bike, that's a win for Palworld. If the next game doesn't let you go where you want, that's a win for Palworld. If the next game lacks any actual customization, proper cities, or some kind of base you can make stuff in, that's another win for Palworld..
A lot of people think Palworld is popular because lmao guns, but the actual reason is that there's an enormous group of adults who grew up with Pokemon that want the Pokemon aesthetic without getting treated like a retard. Pokemon has snubbed it's adult fanbase time and time again and Gamefreak is going to be hearing about Palworld for years and years unless they actually make a good fucking game for once.
