You had success Palworld It’s something that’s sparked a series of conversations of all kinds in recent weeks. There are some who are happy and consider it a good game. However, there are others They are more concerned about the consequences of this title on the industryAs in the case of a former Nintendo employee.
Through his YouTube channel, Stephen Mortimer, who has worked at Nintendo for 11 years and participated in Mario vs. Donkey Kong y Mini Mario and friends, success Palworld There may be negative consequences for the industry. It is noted here that 70% of Pocketpair’s work is a copy of other games, and the other 30% is the idea that manages to bring everything together in a single package.
Although Mortimer noted that the game had positive results, Express concern when considering that other companies may follow this path. That is, copying popular elements from other titles and combining them in a way that makes sense. Here’s what he said about it:
“But if you have the source code and you put a new look on it, it’s pretty easy. And what I’m saying is: it looks pretty easy now. That’s a little gross. If you just say: Thank you for this, Nintendo, It’s mine now and I’ll put something on top, it’s a little weird.
Mortimer points out that this is completely creating a game from scratch and copying a project. The final result, at least in the case Palworldhas proven to be successful, As we found signs, not only of Pokemon, but also of Breath of the Wild, Arc, Valheimand other popular survival titles. However, this approach may cause more problems in the future.
for now, The Pokemon Company is expected to sue Pocketpair for copyright infringement over its monster designs.Something that can affect its success Palworld. Relatedly, they forbid talking about this game in Japan. Similarly, will help the development of Xbox Palworld.
Editor’s note:
Palworld This is a very strange case. In theory, there’s nothing special that makes this title stand out beyond a good game. However, the attention it has received is largely due to the public’s curiosity about the game’s resemblance to Pokemon, although in reality it has little to do with The Pokemon Company’s properties beyond the design of the monsters.
