Disney of Japan is hitting some snags and really running their reputation into the ground with this.
The schadenfreude of their failures alone could give me enough spite energy to power a city on the surface of mars.
The funny thing is Palworld isn't even that an amazing of a game, me, Demos and AVGB play it together sometimes and even with friends it has some very boring moments.
But then you have these little hilarious moments when the sheer absurdity of what you're doing hits and those make it worth playing. And truth is, I'd rather play it than the non-innovative fun-police slop the pokemon team churns out.
What is most hilarious is that this case, this threat to game devs and gamers by nintendo-- has boosted the game into notoriety. Nintendo has created a mountain of problems from a molehill they could have ignored and likely, it never would have been a threat to them.
This zealotry that the rabid and extreme portion of their fanbase tends to imitate is going to be their downfall- and I can't WAIT to see it! As AVGB said, this is a domino effect.
Once one domino falls, the others will follow in a beautiful cascade, colliding with yet more and more pieces. Like a great show we can all watch, to the sounds of this enriching content. An empire that preaches quality is an empire that cannot maintain that quality, and now after decades- people are beginning to see the cracks. Palworld is the collission that will inspire many more.
It wont stop with one unintentional prod as Pocketpair launched, should they win this case- they will inspire others to do similar, now with purpose and prodding as a major motivator. Nintendo's response has invited it to have enemies more than friends-- and if there's one thing a game development empire shouldn't do... it's piss off gamers.
That is a move that never ends well.
Either way, this should prove to be very, very interesting~
