Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Do people still play palworld or did it end up dying out after all the hype? I know a guy that bought it because of the hype, played it for a few hours saying how cool it was and hasn't played it sense.
I'm kind of an early access freak, but I put in about 80 hours and enjoyed it. There were definitely problems early, and I don't plan on going back to it for at least a year, enough for them to release substantially more and it feels fresh.
Same here. I heard they released a handful of new upper tier pals but I'll wait for the next major revision to go back
It got boring real quick
I'm in the same boat.
"OH MAN THIS IS SO COol I can't wait for the rest of the content oh it turns out I can"
I've been having trouble putting my finger on what it is about it like that. I waited a little bit past the hype to play, and when I started I was completely hooked. Then I got busy for a few days and couldn't play it, but never really felt like picking it up again
I wonder if it's because it has a lot of different mechanics, but they aren't particularly deep? So it's addicting as you keep discovering new ones and how they interact, but then dies off?
I knew this would be the case when my friend insisted I buy to play with him. Hes an unfortunate barometer for games that will either lose hype quickly or get shut down soon after release. You name a game that had a hard fall off and he was its biggest proponent during its honeymoon period. Game had its servers shut down? He played the shit out of it.
Such a shame because your friend sounds like a cool person. I think it’s just that the gaming industry has become so bloated and mismanaged that a lot of new products are hyped to hell, then face plant hard.
He is, and I spent a lot of money buying and playing some of these games against my better judgement, but I can't do it anymore. Especially not if they're gonna charge a $70 fee just to start.
I think that's exactly it. You're excited by the promise.
