I think people still think you guys as the “palworld guys” and not as PPP as well, a publishing house

Thats a very good idea and very nice, is just well, I guess you guys are recognized as the palworld guys because of palworld success

yeah I guess taking pity is an understandable stance, it was just weird seeing horror puzzle paired with a lighthearted animal cruelty sim xD

I compared the types of comments dead take got on PP channel

With the comment on IGN

It isn't taking pity on anyone 😄

#

We just want to help people out.

#

We were literally on the verge of bankrupcy before Palworld. We know what it is like to try and make games.

#

Palworld doing well doesn't mean we should just turn into a generic AAA studio.

aka the definition of "take pity", but replace food with publishing, any way I just hope PP itself can survive the big red hat elephant in blue overalls around 😅

Something off topic, why everybody get a crossover with shin godzilla

And not others version of godzilla

Palworld is a weird thing

So there's more to just the "Kid's Online Safety Act", there was another bill in the US that the politician are pushing for that went under the radar called "Screen Act"

And a Politician in the UK admitting that their Kid Safety Act bill is not really about protecting Kids but to monitor Adults and strip them of Free Speech.

Really terrifying that this greedy and gross politicians are conspiring to push a dystopian era where everything is monitored and controlled by the government and greedy corpos, privacy is thrown out of the window...Around 4:00 of this video shows that footage of the politician admitting it.

# tranquil obsidian at this point i can honestly see Japan creating it's own payment processor and a...

They'll most likely do that, Visa and Mastercard are a monopoly, controlling 80% of money flow and now they even want to dictate what the people can and cannot buy? Bs they need to be abolished and split up, what they're doing is very anti-consumer and they could be slapped by the public with Anti-Trust law or something.

What those payment processors forget is their only job is to process transactions and block illegal transactions. They don't have any right to dictate the people

I still don't forgive Nintendo for hard pushing "Experience the Calamity of 100 years ago!" for Age of Calamity's marketing, just for that to be a total lie and it was a "what if" or branching timeline rather than what actually happened before BotW

That genuinely is just blatantly lying to people

I feel like Nintendo didn’t even know when or how anything happens until they just lifted some fan’s interpretation of it.

#

I doubt it, they're morally questionable, but not outright stupid. Anyone could've looked at the script and gone "huh, Ganon gets defeated and Link doesn't go to sleep, this isn't a prequel" yet it was still marketed as one.

My bet is that they thought a prequel would sell better, but only once the game was already underway, so it was just in the marketing instead of the writing

I'd have to say since the conversations would be happening through net ease servers or networks or whatever the such they'd classify it as, that it wouldnt be deemed as private

# icy pecan That’s nice but i would kinda want to see a death match between lucario and Anub...

Completely one sided, Anubis gets stab SE on lucario while lucario gets what? Energy ball? And surely some of those turns will be wasted on trying to hit Anubis with water/ice attacks, assuming it even prepared any. Top off Anubis being able to naturally dodge and having 3 exclusives that bounce it all over the place and lucario can’t really hit except with aura sphere. This becomes the biggest landslide in history if we say 1 Pokémon stat=1 palworld stat since they reach upwards of the thousands and Pokémon might not even break 1000
