    In case you are curious, the downvotes are cuz the headline was a lie. Not only did they not rip off pokemon, they are happy to see clones of their game. They want to try them all and see if any are fun to play. They love these kinds of games, after all.

          Sure, Pokémon ripped off that or whatever the first monster catching game was.

          But if you’re telling me any of those examples look half as much of a complete copy paste and recolor as the “designs” in Palworld, you’re either arguing in bad faith or blind. Most of those examples look absolutely nothing like their supposed counterpart.

            If this statement was even close to factually accurate you realize that Nintendo would have sued and taken down Palworld already right? I can’t be arguing in bad faith if Nintendo’s litigious lawyers basically agree with my statements.

              Come on now. Anyone can tell they’re knockoffs and I’m sure you do as well. Just cause they’re technically legally distinct enough doesn’t mean they’re not obvious copies.

                Every shoe made is a knockoff of the original shoe, but some look slightly different but we aren’t calling every new shoe release a knock off.
