It’s basically the devs 3 most favourite game series and he’s just like, what if I make them all into one game, like exactly. \n\n🤣"

I think it's fine for devs to take inspiration from other things and run with it if it is a good concept. \n\n  \nBut this? This is pushing it. It is too blantent with being derivative.  I just don't think I would bother with I when I could be playing Horizon or Monster Hunter."

If they just put a bit more effort in creating a unique style then people might be more excited for this, but for now it just feels like a knock off."

The Palworld v Nintendo thing is a patent lawsuit, and just like with physical inventions as long as you don't do exactly what the patent states there'd be no issue.",

Nintendo is crying about copycat while they copycat the whole pokemon game, but no one cared, because sharing is caring ..   \nAnd now they are crying again about another copycat, while they were the one who copycat others, AGAIN!\n\nThe result will be interesting"
