That pal in the thumbnail looks like someone on the Palworld team took a fan edit of an Egyptian themed lucario and specifically designed that pal to look just like it.

I would say almost all of them fall under the 'legally distinct but totally is' category.

The server I set up for my friends is named "Portable Creatures: Exhalation of the Wilderness" for a reason.

I read in steam reviews that the Dev is actually suspected to use genAi on Pokémon images to create their pal designs

[-] AceFuzzLord@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Would not surprise me either way.

This is like a merge of Satisfactory and Ark Survival?

[-] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 16 points 9 months ago

I thinks it’s Craftopia with Pokémon.

[-] Andrenikous@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

Same devs so it absolutely is.

[-] Tzig@sh.itjust.works 9 points 9 months ago

With Pokemon yeah basically

...ok i give it a try on release.

[-] CluelessDude@lemmy.zip 2 points 9 months ago

It's released on steam atm, early access.

Craftopia, the company's previous game, has been in early access for four years. I don't think this game is getting a release either.

Make no mistake, this is an early release survival/crafting budget game. The engine itself is fairly limited and feels more like a free mmo from 10 years ago than an Ubisoft game. It's fun, though. It has all that stuff which is advertised, and I've been having fun with it. It's a Skyrim kind of enjoyment, vast and shallow, but the vastness has its own appeal.

Unfortunately this seems like the kind of game which is going to be completely ruined in about a year. It is clearly set up to farm microtransactions in the future. Right now in the goodwill period the game functions like an actual game. Some people may want them to "finish" the game before they get it, but that's not the kind of game this is. The full release is now. In a year the game will be an unplayable skinner box.

Can confirm, ran fine on my desktop machine without needing to tinker (caveat: I changed the "compatibility layer" to use proton-ge before attempting to launch it of my own initiative).

[-] Stillhart@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago

I realize this is the linux gaming sub, but it's worth mentioning that this is on Gamepass too (I still use Gamepass on Xbox even though I don't game on Windows anymore).

[-] SwagGaribaldi@lemmy.zip 3 points 9 months ago

Really wish I could run the Windows Xbox app on Linux

[-] Stillhart@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

I kinda do too. It's nice having the option to play Gamepass games on PC or console. Some games are just more comfy on one than the other.

[-] epyon22@programming.dev 3 points 9 months ago

I really don't know how to feel about this game

[-] Templa@beehaw.org 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

For me is a hard pass. First their have a really weird take of the creatures being stolen and you committing crimes and such and then...

Apparently the creature designs were made using AI
