I can only speak to the single player experience, but it's pretty good for 30 hours or so, if you don't follow guides and try to rush the game for whatever reason.
After that things start getting a lot more annoying or boring in general.
It's "How is it, actually?", bud. And Palworld is a pretty good game, but that's on my opinion, my question for you is what do you want out of Palworld?
Generally? Not much.
The gameplay is very different.
It does have types, STAB, and all that jazz, but the actual moment to moment activities and even the way you fight alongside the pals is wholly different.
The closest it gets to a real time pokemon is when you are mounting your Pal and get to control their movement and use their moves manually.
a uncreative spinoff hack based on previous popular titles like Ark but with pokemon ripoffs.
Only good for the first few hours before the spell wears off and you realize you're wasting your time in a boring chinese knockoff like world with nothing to do but farm and grind for nothing.
There's a reason why the player based fell by over 90% 2 weeks after the initial fad.
It's 40% Pokemon, 50% ARK, and 10% Breath of the Wild. If that sounds like your jam, then it's a good time.
Turn based combat takes its roots from tabletop gaming, which is still fun to this very day and can be as simple or as complex as you want it to be.
Pokemon is babbies' first turn based RPG and nothing about it is challenging, engaging or thought provoking (Pokemon is purely carried by its monster design), which is why people have made entire careers out of making the most moronic and autistic self-imposed challenges from it.
It's "leveled-enemy survival crafting game but you can have things that look like pokemon but they're just moronic followers and oh you can automate some crafting with pokemon too"/10
I put 250 hours, but for your average joe you'll get like 50-100 hours before burnout. Its good, but unfinished. I love it personally but it is flawed due to lack of polish and such. That it will hopefully get in future patches along with more content.
If you liked Pokemon Legends Arceus, you'll like it.
Wish they had more stuff that was in the trailers. Enemy factions were suppose to have tanks and other shit but now it's just a bunch of guys with guns guarding camps. Factions don't even get Pal allies besides the bosses.
You can watch some streamers play it and probably get an idea. I have 421 hours in the game. It's very close to the autism simulator I've always wanted, but has a LOT of glaring flaws and early access jank. I do not think the devs will take the money and run like so many people say. Worse case scenario, they leave everything as is and sell new content per expansion. Even so, you'll get the 30$ worth if you enjoy survival craft games. It can be very comfy too. The first play through is magical, I strongly suggest playing as blind as possible.
I know, and all the fixes have been great. Digtoise finally got justice, Jormuntide got mostly untarded (a shame new players will have missed out on this.), and a ton of other stuff. I am really hoping for a bit more QoL and touchups before trying to make a new island. Base building is severely lacking yet one of the aspects I enjoy. Might be asking a lot to have all the assets share an art style, but yeah. I have high hopes. The comment about the devs running with the money was more in preemptive response to the usual shit people say.
If you like pokemon but hate what it's become then you'll like it. It's fun just exploring the world and finding new kinds of pals and if you're into base-building autism then it's even better.
It's pretty fun. Clearly unfinished seeing that it's in early access, but it has a nice gameplay loop of capturing pals -> better base -> character upgrades -> more pals to catch and use. There isn't really a story put in place though there are logs so there is lore about the world. If you always wanted a Pokemon game where you actually fight side by side with your Pokemon palworld satisfies that desire partially.
It's fun. Just nothing to do late game, hence player drop off after the 80-100 hour mark. Probably a good thing because the alternative is battlepass/mmo-tier grindy horseshit.
Fun for the first few hours. Then you realize that no amount of new Pals are going to make a run of the mill "Survival/Crafting" game any less repetitive or boring. There's no story, "bad guys" are just there and tower bosses are just there, no real rhyme or reason to any of it. Only play this game if you have the amount of autism required to actually find any of this "fun".
It's one of the best games I've every played, and easily the best single player "Pokemon" game. I haven't been this addicted to a game in years. I put 150 hours into it in a month. Everything about it just works. The pals help you build your base. Your base helps you catch pals. It's a positive feedback loop and you keep saying "just one more Pal, just one more base upgrade, just one more Pal..."
I like how this game was forgotten in a week because of Helldivers
despite FOTM homosexuals hailed it as if its some-kind of game of the decade
It's the same old survival builder game where you build a shitty crafting base out of wood and stone and then kill some shitty-AI monsters with the weapons you craft. Only this time they sold a lot of copies through a firehose of obnoxious viral marketing, here and elsewhere, and ripping off Pokemon.

Pretty decent for early access. If you're not adverse to solo craft type games and get a neuron activation from monster collecting, you'll find some fun to be had there.
Meh. It's a decent game if you ignore the tiresome gameplay look and poorly mismatched assets.
The biggest issue is that it probably won't ever receive a significant update besides extra pals and a new island, so we probably got the final product already.

This, but you can also just change the exp/material gain to make things less moronic. Triple boss spawns is apparently a lot of fun.
It's okay for like 2-3 hours and then is kind of boring for the rest of the game. Needs more shit to do.
idk
Bad rip off.
21,000,000 people paid for a bad rip-off?
>21,000,000 people paid
>including the gamepass downloads as "paid"
LMAO
>Literally Microsoft pays gamepass copies to be free
They count anon
I mean, it's got a lot of improvements over Ark, so it's not bad, but it very much is a rip off of it.
Its fun but clearly not content complete. The late game in particular gets a bit grindy but there's a good few dozen hours of fun in it right now.
it's boring as shit. glad i pirated it instead of giving some absolute gays money. frick every moron that did.
cope
But enough about Elden Ring
It's "How is it, actually?", bud. And Palworld is a pretty good game, but that's on my opinion, my question for you is what do you want out of Palworld?
How similar is the game to Pokemon, besides the plagiarized designs?
Generally? Not much.
The gameplay is very different.
It does have types, STAB, and all that jazz, but the actual moment to moment activities and even the way you fight alongside the pals is wholly different.
The closest it gets to a real time pokemon is when you are mounting your Pal and get to control their movement and use their moves manually.
How actually?
Extremely actually
It's fun, feels like it was made for me and I'm still not done playing it. People have a bit of a stigma with how popular it got though.
good fun for a while, but it's quick to exhaust all the content

better than any modern pokemon game
just say you don't like turn based battles.
I like TBC when it's for adults, like BG3.

I'd say it's more just Ark but with Pokemon instead of Dinosaurs.
No, Pokémon just needs to actually spice shit up.
this runny shit I'm taking right now is better than any modern pokemon game
It's fun, I'm about to do a run where I just use all penguins
It's "leveled-enemy survival crafting game but you can have things that look like pokemon but they're just moronic followers and oh you can automate some crafting with pokemon too"/10
It's literally just those chink crafting games on mobile with Pokemon knock offs, it's shit.
what games? if they're this good then I guess I can put away my hate for chink devs

The game has received at least three updates in the past month.
They're working on it, they're just severely understaffed right now.
I know, and all the fixes have been great. Digtoise finally got justice, Jormuntide got mostly untarded (a shame new players will have missed out on this.), and a ton of other stuff.

Pretty fun especially with friends up until mid level 30s and gets a lot more boring.

The game was half assed all the way and the fanbase is full of edgy kids and ironic furries. Stay away.
It's an early access survival crafting game, that's all you really need to know
Nintendo is the most evil and greedy company in video game history, and it's not even close
I think Nintendo might be worse than Apple but quite as bad as Monsanto
Chillet wife
It's fun. Just nothing to do late game, hence player drop off after the 80-100 hour mark. Probably a good thing because the alternative is battlepass/mmo-tier grindy horseshit.
it's fun but still on early access.
Fun, a bit janky and with a massive potential.
Also, grindy as frick near the endgame, but if you like grindan games then you might enjoy it.
Fun for the first few hours. Then you realize that no amount of new Pals are going to make a run of the mill "Survival/Crafting" game any less repetitive or boring. There's no story, "bad guys" are just there and tower bosses are just there, no real rhyme or reason to any of it. Only play this game if you have the amount of autism required to actually find any of this "fun".
>There's no story
Someone didn't read any in game journals
That's not what a story is dumbass, that's lore and it's bare bones lore at that.
have a nice day
fun
Sorry, anon, you missed the FOTM period. Please play the next shilled game instead.
needs helldivers and lethal company
man these things come and go real fricking fast
can you tell me what the next game is so i dont miss out? im always late
The next game was Helldivers 2, you missed it.
It's one of the best games I've every played, and easily the best single player "Pokemon" game. I haven't been this addicted to a game in years. I put 150 hours into it in a month. Everything about it just works. The pals help you build your base. Your base helps you catch pals. It's a positive feedback loop and you keep saying "just one more Pal, just one more base upgrade, just one more Pal..."
This is...!
he won
As soon as nintendo reveals the current player numbers of SV.
Awful animations with terrible UE stock assets and no art direction, awful lighting and even worse survivalslop gameplay
Pokegays are literal subhumans
aren't people who are into this a sect of a poke gay?
I mean as a non poke gay I don't get the appeal of capturing and summoning mascot creatures
I like how this game was forgotten in a week because of Helldivers
despite FOTM homosexuals hailed it as if its some-kind of game of the decade
it's okay at best for early access
somehow manages to btfo the latest pokemon
wouldn't recommend paying 30 united states dollary doos for it

Why would support a company that steals? Just get a Switch and a copy of Pokemon. You’ll have a much better time.
>Why would support a company that steals?
>Just get a Switch and a copy of Pokemon. You’ll have a much better time.
FACT CHECKED FALSE!
pokemon on switch isn't good, neither is the switch.
Pretty decent for early access. If you're not adverse to solo craft type games and get a neuron activation from monster collecting, you'll find some fun to be had there.
It's a fun game, nothing amazing though, it has polish but also a ton of bugs.
I don't know why tendies are freaking out over it.
I've got a almost a hundred hours in it, it's fun but needs some polish. I'm going to wait for a few big content drops before I get back into it.
Fun game but only has about 25-50 hrs of content unless you get autistically into a specific aspect like breeding for perfect stats or whatever.
ask again in december
Meh. It's a decent game if you ignore the tiresome gameplay look and poorly mismatched assets.
The biggest issue is that it probably won't ever receive a significant update besides extra pals and a new island, so we probably got the final product already.
Its a very nice game. And i am glad it has some nice wholesome art.
