i love how terraria is the 7th best selling game ever and they are just chill with everyone.
i adore the dedication to fun. they just keep rollin.
My understanding is they keep adding features even though they’re supposed to be done because they still play the game constantly themselves and end up wanting more content.
its true. the biggest terraria fans are the devs.
If you do what you love, you’ll be constantly working the rest of your life.
I know this is probably isn’t true but it’s my head cannon that they’re just really afraid to put out a “state of the game [month]” posts without anything in it
Re-Logic is just chill overall. Barely any drama and they respect their players. Which I love!
Red making the best Mario fan game is just a weird factoid.
I beg your exquisite pardon?
Granted
I don’t care how much of a pirate cheapo game this is, watching Nintendo go ape over practically a knockoff someone could have made as a joke is amusing, especially with their playerbase success.
It only has a surface level similarity to pokemon. It’s as much like fallout 4 as it is pokemon.
palworld is more like ark anyway
Idk I literally went around just catching pals and spent 30 hours doing that, seems pretty pokemon to me.
What were you doing for the majority of those 30 hours? Most likely resource gathering, building your base, optimizing pal usage, etc… Basically the only similarity is that you throw spheres at creatures. There’s no gyms, no turn based gameplay, no trading, no evolution, and not even really trainer battles, just some unique encounters.
You: “bet you had to optimize and synergize and energize…”
Me: “haha, crossbow and pal sphere go brrr.”
As long as you can see it’s not pokemon lol
The day Pokémon adds crossbows it might be fun again
Nothing is gonna save it until game freak gets a change in management
It’s pretty fun, more fun than modern Pokemon, but I’m just a trash gentwo’er.
Gen 2 is the best gen
Idk man there is a reason silver is always second
Emerald was the best pokemon game of all time
is there truly any aspect where gsc surpasses hgss?
You cannot copyright a vague idea. No matter how much Nintendo might want to.
The game is basically just magic animals in the world that you can capture and do things with. It’s literally every JRPG ever. It’s just mounts with extra features.
I don’t play either of these games.
This post made me happy.
Just one more update bro
Aren’t they being sued by Nintendo rn? That’s some balls from both sides lol.
That lawsuit might take years, and the requested damages from Nintendo are only $66,000. Palworld isn’t going to be shut down anytime soon, even if they lose the case.
The request includes a term to shutdown Palworld IIRC
There was a request to halt sales until the specific mechanics were removed, with the mechanics being throwing pokeball like items and riding monsters.
Trying do ban riding fictional animals is a tall order
Fuck it, have Nintendo sue blizzard whole they’re at it. I want to see a nerd bloodbath.
Blizzard of course can’t sue anyone because that would require an original idea to copyright.
I looked through a few articles but couldn’t find anything about a term that would shutdown Palworld just because Nintendo won the lawsuit.
The worst case scenario would be something like Palworld having to change their “Pal Spheres” into “Pal Cubes” or prisms, or something similar.
The Palnoctahedron. “It’s a totally different shape and it’s just the fact that it’s very small, and we enabled smooth shading, that makes it look like we haven’t done anything to it.”
In Japan.
With the money they’ve made already, they could move the team to US, where none of this would fly.
They would still have to face the courts in Japan if they want to sell in Japan.
Your line of thinking is the same thing that X fell for with Brazil. Just because you don’t have your HQ in a particular country doesn’t mean the legal system can be ignored. Otherwise the EU wouldn’t be gifting fines to Google and Apple every 15 minutes.
The suit is effectively not about the money at all. It’s about setting a precedent in Japanese court to basically allow Nintendo to patent whatever they want, whenever they want, so they can go after and shut down competitors with ease. Pirate Software has a decent and short breakdown on their youtube channel iirc
The patents were filed after the features were already in their other game, Craftopia.
Does that mean they should stop functioning because Nintendo is suing them?
2025! is quite a ways away
That’s awesome, I thought they got murdered by Nintendo.
Nintendo are suing them, but Nintendo sue everyone.
The Japanese copyright courts are stupid, it doesn’t matter how clearly something isn’t a case, it still goes to trial if one of the parties is big and important enough. They don’t seem to have proper separation of law and government. So political bigwigs can get involved.
Summoner class going to eat good. Guess I’ll do another playthrough of terraria.
“Looks like <Terraria> & <Palworld> are throwing a party!”
Terraria seems so relaxed. They just kind of seem to be coexisting with everyone which i love.
THAT WAS UNEXPECTED
2024 is not finished for anybody on earth, pal.
maybe some people…
Catching pokemon in Terraria?
Count me in.
Ayo?? I’m intrigued?
