From every screenshot I’ve seen, absolutely none of the geometry lines up 1:1. These are original models. They may have been heavily based on existing pokemon with some choice tweaks/artistic touches to distinguish them legally, but they aren’t ripped and tweaked assets like a lot of people seem to think/imply.

This game has driven some people actually, frothing at the mouth insane.

The first line of defense for any IP has always been weird nerds in a comments section. I just assume they’re the kids of IP lawyers, and have a vested interest in defending daddy’s source of income from the loathsome hordes of people just trying to inject a little fun into everyone’s lives.

Pals are definitely deeply inspired by pokemon, and there are definitely equivalents and borrowed design elements. But it’s all remixed enough that it’s really not an issue. Like Kingpaca has Empoleon’s crown element, for instance, but they’re pretty radically different otherwise. Then there’s this fella.

If disabled guests can’t utilize it then they simply can’t experience the ride. Just like some rides exclude you if you don’t pass a height or weight requirement. There’s no way disney would leave that money on the table when 95% of guests can experience this fully.

It’s ARK but instead of tranq gunning a dino over and over while feeding it for 2 hours, you capture it in pokeballs. Which you throw at it after shooting it in the temple a couple times with your AK-47.

So the sonograf is just an analogue midi sequencer with worse UX because you have to suss out where the notes fall in order to not produce the cat screeching in the demo? Am I understanding this correctly?

The two logos are very visually distinct, and even in abbreviation rockstar is R*, not R. I wish rockstar good luck, they’ll need it.

In this analogy is only getting to use half of a cart’s ink because it ran out of yellow, or because its just a scammy piece of shit in general, equivalent to getting an all 1 star pull?

Same thought about “beefsteak plant” that’s deadly to beef dogs.

Guess that means we’ll see more (emphasis more, not any) the inventory posts selling snake oil supplements and overpriced drop shipped garbage.

Finally, my piss can sparkle in the wind like my great grandfather’s.

Get a grip.

If you say so? I don’t see what’s boring about not letting myself be lied to, or making irresponsible spending decisions like a $500 console to save a year of waiting for a single game. You know I play video games, right? And I actually enjoy them more than when I allowed myself to get over hyped for games or allow…

They never had meaning dawg, that’s the neat part.

Oh shit, forgot DD2 is coming in march. Little more attractive than the list above.

Finally got the chance to play the beta this last time, and boy. Forced 6 hour limit and not a whole lot surfaced within that 6 hours has my red flags raised REAL high.

Just tough through it. You’ll find that, if you actually try, you can tune out a lot of the zeitgeist and live at your own pace without making decisions like “I should spend $500 for this remake of a 26 year old game”. You can even escape hype cycles! Geoff Keighley could even have no power over you, if you don’t let…

I’m seeing... Questionably aged companion with odious backstory and even more odious reasons for following the MC, voiced by AI.

Will these updates be enough to turn fan sentiment around? Well, in a world where Cyberpunk 2077 literally won an award for getting its act together, it’s not entirely implausible.
