    They didn’t copy Pokemon, they created new content that is similar to Pokemon.

    Do you believe it is wrong to create new content that is very similar to existing content that people enjoy?

    Is it wrong for Pocket Pair (Palworld’s creator) to create new content that is similar to existing Pokemon? Is it wrong for GameFreak to create new content that is similar to existing Pokemon? Morally speaking, why are the answers to those questions different?

      If you can’t see how blatant it is, I don’t know what to tell you. You can be all “it’s just SIMILAR wink wink” all you want. Similar is a fucking understatement.

        Okay. You don’t like the word “similar” I guess. What word would you use?

        It is certainly not the same.
