Great news that Palworld will probably come to PS5 because PlayStation players deserve to play a game that is quite similar to Pokémon. And as for Pokémon, I think Pokémon should be a multi-platform title because I think everyone deserves to play Pokémon games.

Okay, sounds like it.

Anyone here hyped for that?
Nope. It being an MMORPG and always online kills any itch for Pokemon-like experiences. Same for TemTem.

EDIT: Seems like it can actually be played offline?

An actual Pokémon mmo would be like a world shaking event. Hope to see it in my lifetime even while not a fan in the slightest. It just seems like it would be the biggest thing ever.

PS5 launch of Palworld should be expected to be huge. Anectdotal but online discourse seems interested in forthcoming content also.

TemTem is more like Pokemon then Palworld.

Not really hype since it’s more of a survival rpg. Also it coming to PS5 so late makes existing friends once hype for the game no longer interested.

Needs to be a psplus title now.

Not paying for a game that is leaving PlayStation last.

I was curious and went to check it: in Steam seems that after the 'Pokemon with guns, lol!' meme was over, around 25K-30K per day kept there playing.

Not coming to switch?

If not switch then switch 2 probably.

It’s still being advertised as “early access” so I’d guess it’ll drop that moniker with ps5 launch.

Its not an MMORPG. Source: I played it. That said, wouldn't recommend, the late game is very tedious and the game has seemingly no plot after you successfully set up a base.

That's actually quite good for an indie game. 30k concurrent like 6 months after launch means the game has some core appeal beyond the memes.

They kinda missed the hype wave on this one, but better late than never I guess.
This games story is still crazy what the lead programmer/animator is just some kid in high school who quit his convenience store job. Take that AAA devs :ROFLMAO:

I think thats just a single team member who focused on the gun aspects, from the story I just read. The dev as a whole was established for years before this, albeit as a small studio that just did Steam crafting crap. Even if he's the lead animator, which I am not sure of, he's definitely not the lead programmer and might not do any non-animation programming at all.

I got that off a translation of some article of the CEO interviewing on his blogpost. This said he did more, I would say a game about Pokemon with guns, guns are a key part haha.

Regardless 15 million sales from a indie group, commendable. Idgaf about Palworld, but the quote from the CEO: “I don't [have a creative vision]. I just want to make a game people like'' got a lot of AAA studios malding.
