    “c/palworld” will only work for people who are in lemmy.world. It’s better to link the community as !palworld@lemmy.world, now everyone accesses it.

    I’m apparently the second subscriber. I’ve been curious about this game; people describe it as “Pokémon with guns”, but what interests me is “Pokémon minus The Pokémon Company and GameFreak”. If they release a Linux version and are able to deliver a good singleplayer experience (I bloody hate multiplayer) I’m sold.

      You can get Coromon to work on Linux. I play pretty much every creature collector game that gets released and Coromon is by far the most “a better version of Pokémon” I know.

      People compare Palworld with Pokémon for superficial reasons, it really isn’t a Pokémon-like game.

        Honestly it feels like the pepole praising it for “Doing what gamefreak won’t!”

        Either haven’t played Palworld or haven’t played Pokemon

        Reading more about Palworld made me even more interested on it, to be honest. Survival? Base-building? Automation? Fuck, I want this.

        (I’ll still check Coromon though. Thanks for the rec!)

      And depending on your client, that opens up your Mail client if you have yet to interact with the community. The best thing the creator of the community and this post can do is post within their community so people can go to their profile and find the community that way.

      It’s really not “Pokemon, but not held back by GameFreak”, it’s more like “ARK, but it looks colorful, plays like BOTW, and has a Pokemon inspired creature catching gimmick”

      If you’re looking for an edgier, more creative version of Scarlet/Violet, keep looking.

      If you’re looking for “Minecraft Pixelmon, but for Adults”

      This is for you

        The game doesn’t really want to run in my potato (it has 16GB RAM, and I tried to run it through WINE so…)

        That’s a shame because “Minecraft Pixelmon for adults” does sound nice for me. I also liked Ark quite a bit.

      Currently playing it on my Steam Deck. Proton handles it pretty well, performance is alright if you lock it to 30, and the controls all work, even with correct button prompts

        That solves one of the matters (Linux). What about the other? Is its singleplayer fun?

          That’s completely subjective. Although if you find survival in general fun, you’ll probably feel right at home

            I’m aware that fun value is subjective, but that was the way that I found to ask succinctly if it’s possible to have fun even if you focus solely on singleplayer. (I’m not a big fan of MP).

            A shame that the game didn’t want to run at any acceptable speed in my machine. Otherwise I’d be almost for sure playing it, @pikasaurX4@lemm.ee even mentioned that it’s Ark-like (I’d love Ark if not for the grinding, so…)

          Single player is fun if you like to play survival crafting games alone. “Pokémon with guns” is not actually a very good description. It’s a monster capturing game, and the creatures are cartoony like Pokémon, but it’s a third person survival crafting game. No turn based elements or choosing monster move sets or anything like that.

          It’s more like Ark with Pokémon instead of dinosaurs

    So did they deliver on the promise of press ganging my Pokemon to work in a guns factory? Because if they did I’ll go buy it right now.

      You can’t have a ton of Pals on your base until you level your base up, but in theory, yes, you can create a gun factory if you work for it.

      And you can make those chumps work slave hours and literally meat cleave them if they displease you. Theoretically you can be an ethical trainer instead i guess, I wouldn’t know
