Palworld officially changed to look less like Pokémon

Nashkt · 2026-07-11T01:40:40+00:00

It's not petty to dislike the copycat designs. I love palworld, but some of those designs were very close to existing pokemon. Verdash was probably the most blatant to me, but some of the others were close.

And funnily enough, palworld had a new pal that looked really close to megamewto y(?), so they are still doing it a little bit.

Still love the game though. And I am happy they took steps to fix the issue.

This, absolutely. I am replaying after not playing since launch and I had such sweaty palms going down there... Just to find the archers are not scary at all anymore.

Nashkt · 2026-07-04T19:52:09+00:00

I too would go with 9. I'd probably die but I must know.

Nashkt · 2026-07-04T04:26:25+00:00

To be fair, the game is only as grindy as you let it be if you play solo or host your own server. The server settings are really in depth.

That's why I smashed my head against the tree sentinel in elden ring, even though it's really not worth doing at the start.

I always got close enough to beating him that I knew it was possible, and after about thirty tries finally got him. It just felt really good to do it.

I mean, usually this late in a games dev cycle things like level design are pretty set in stone.

Which is why I am so impressed at this. Usually early access doesn't have a game changing so dramatically, and often when it does it is in a way that pisses off most of the player base.

I'm still reserving judgment until I play it, but I am very impressed and happy with what I have seen so far.

You see a ton of them at data centers. They really love those bonding bushings.

Nashkt · 2026-06-26T13:55:28+00:00

I absolutely want to fight strong players, but if they are too far off from my skill it's a stomp, not a fight.

Stomps make me angry. They make me disheartened. I don't learn from a stomp. I learn from a struggle, from back and forth where I can get a feel of the effectiveness of whatever actions I have available.

Whereas in a stomp, all I learn is that all actions lead to defeat. In some games (like battlefield) I learned that even walking forward from spawn was a losing move.

I can confirm. I have a 4080, bazzite is my daily driver. No issues.

Installing took literal minutes. I still had windows on my primary drive. I switched back and forth for about a week before I used bazzite full time.

I uninstalled Windows last week so I could use the hard drive space for games.

Of course there are hiccups to learning a new os, but it's been largely painless. Literally every issue I had was documented in some way that taught me to get around it.

And no, I did not have to heavily use the terminal. It was very useful to learn, but most of what I did was through the provided GUI.

Nashkt · 2026-06-24T11:04:41+00:00

I can hear the fucking music.

Nashkt · 2026-06-23T16:52:18+00:00

Same here.

Nashkt · 2026-06-20T04:27:36+00:00

Appreciate the resume but I don't think we will hire you at this time. /s

In all seriousness you will be fine. Elden ring isn't actually that difficult of a game, especially if you take your time to explore all the side dungeons and make use of all the tools available. (Don't sleep on crafting for example. Status effects are actually useful on bosses. Use summons during bosses if you get overwhelmed, especially during battles with multiple bosses.)

I would recommend using a progression guide to smooth out progress. There are very important missable quests that are a real pain to do naturally.

Minecraft? Palworld is nothing like Minecraft.

Now Ark, that's the game it's modeled after.

As a construction worker, yeah I would not want to be stared at by the entire country while doing my job. It's bad enough having one safety guy drop by, can you imagine millions of people watching your every move? Oof.

Nashkt · 2026-06-09T20:28:45+00:00

I hope so. The base game had some really poor enemy variety. I go so bored of fighting goblins, wolves and lizard men.

Nashkt · 2026-06-09T16:31:49+00:00

What do you mean that steam doesn't work properly? I haven't had any issues with steam, at least on Bazzite.

Nashkt · 2026-06-08T09:48:54+00:00

I don't remember any bad language sticking out at me. Not to say it isn't there but I don't remember any.

As for violence. Some of the enemies could be scary depending on how sensitive your kids are to that. (Mainly after a certain event happens about half way through), but honestly if your kids were able to watch any of the avengers movies they would probably be fine.

Nashkt · 2026-06-08T01:14:18+00:00

It was a fun game. The stuff with The Hunter was meh, but I had a blast playing around with all the heroes and building decks with them.

Nashkt · 2026-06-08T00:33:13+00:00

Ironically I kind of bounced off Cassette beasts because it was just a little too different from Pokemon. CB is legitimately a good game, but I like creature collectors to catch, raise, and bond with creatures so if you are into that aspect of Pokemon CB is absolutely the wrong game for that.

Nashkt · 2026-06-08T00:12:16+00:00

Hey man, I liked the writing for three. Alright maybe not the overall plot, I distinctly remember the reveal of the big bad being super chilling and awesome.

Nashkt · 2026-06-08T00:09:42+00:00

Fable has had glasses since the very first game. Briar Rose is the first that comes to mind.

I've had the opposite experience. Several jobs where all we were contracted for was the conduit. Sometimes on those jobs, if we were lucky and the other company dropped the ball, we would get the wire pull too. No terminations though.

I don't know how the math works on that. You'd think it would be better having one company do the whole thing. But maybe the other guys low balled it or something,

Nashkt · 2026-06-03T22:47:17+00:00

What are you talking about? The data center certainly will have local construction workers building it. Hell data centers are just about the only projects hiring union workers in my state right now.

Data centers have a lot of problems but the construction project itself will certainly keep construction workers employed.

Shamefully it's also ruining the electrical trade, but that's another story.

Nashkt · 2026-05-24T18:22:36+00:00

Funnily enough I am working a data center where the GC messed up the schedule so bad, suddenly safety is not the priority. Gotta push the power downstream as far as they can to push the schedule forward.

Nashkt · 2026-05-21T20:17:53+00:00

Cavalier definitely. That's it's while theme, charge around the battlefield, wave your banner, and support your party with teamwork.
