Is there any way to drop key items? My partner made a hip lantern for me but grabbed it out of the bench to clear the space and now she has two.

Work to bring the world together... By investigating whether we have grounds to legally tear apart some punks making a fun game people enjoy together.

I know there is a cow pal that gives milk but I have no idea where to get one. I need a good milk supply so I can start breeding! Anyway, the game remains pretty fun about 13 hours in at level 28 or so. I've been playing on easy which does away with base pal morale issues, which seems nice. The catch rate is still pretty terrible, I can't imagine playing on hard

they are a corporation, and japanese they were probably taking their time and building an internal case

I would assume once it caught on some people looked into it more over the weekend, then Monday morning copies were purchased to analyze with like, actual real tools and experts in the subject both on the technical end and the law end, and after 3 office days they felt confident to issue a statement.

The entire marketing was literally Pokemon with Guns for 2 years straight. They knew drat well that "Things that have a similar art style" isn't actually legally actionable. They don't own the rights to create animals with exaggerated shapes with big eyes and high saturation/contrasting colors, or rock-paper-scissors elemental combat. The only thing that's come out that's suspect was (supposedly?) Pals being new textures slapped over actual pokemon models. And I think even that came out to be disproven or something. e; vvvv That's how I interpreted it too

that comment reads more like TPC saying "stop asking us about Palworld" than any statement of actual legal intent

its some new gamer rage form of swatting where you beg and plead for the billion dollar corporation to nuke a game you don't like there's been a ton of disinfo on social media in general about this game, TPC/Nintendo probably has to at least make an effort to look into it. Tons of the characters are not IP, like you can't IP a mammoth or a sheep, but this is levels of western dev rage that eclipses what happened with Elden Ring.

Countblanc posted:that comment reads more like TPC saying "stop asking us about Palworld" than any statement of actual legal intent Yeah. It's also worth noting that copyright law and IP/trademark law are very different with different standards and bars. Everyone keeps saying either "PalWorld is free!" or "Shut down the game!" but I could also see a scenario where a judge is just like "Ok you need to change the wolves I guess" and everyone moves on.

Man, I like the game but if Nintendo actually does anything its a completely self-inflicted wound by the devs. Like, you can say that you can't copyright an art style, but there are definitely a few obvious knockoff 'mons.

Yeah, but given how many mons are based on real/mythological world animals you can't then say you own the rights to unicorns or turtles

Yeah that's where I am. I think the best case scenario for this game where action is taken is that they have to change some of the obvious copies. I've seen "what about digimon" off site but I can't think of a single digimon (or general mon game,) design that comes as close as some of these Pals. Definitely curious how this all plays out.

Countblanc posted:that comment reads more like TPC saying "stop asking us about Palworld" than any statement of actual legal intent Yeah honestly that sounds like they just want people to stop bothering them about Palworld. I don't think Nintendo are about to try to say they own the rights to 'a fox with fire on its tail'. They'll check into the 'stolen models' thing and if it's not true, then there's nothing. Even if it is true, it's clearly not true of every Pal, so probably the devs can just yank out the copied models and put in new ones. They obviously do know how to make models at this point.

It was funny for a week but now I'm pretty tired of hearing about Pokemon. Nothing is going to change, Palworld didn't 'get one over' on Nintendo, and the same types of Pokemon games are going to come out. We'll probably get a PUBG-like genre explosion though which is good for everyone.

Nintendo is going to develop a mid size Pokemon game that is an open world explore and craft with some kind of multiplayer, and it will sell 20 million copies before Palworld ever leaves EA.

HopperUK posted:Yeah honestly that sounds like they just want people to stop bothering them about Palworld. I've heard that Japan doesn't have an explicit parody stipulation and in general is much stricter about this stuff, so who knows. Hopefully at worst the judgement would be "make them look different" and not "give us all your income in perpetuity". The annoying thing is that if they decide it's not a problem, they almost certainly aren't going to say so, leaving the whole thing in limbo.

pentyne posted:Yeah, but given how many mons are based on real/mythological world animals you can't then say you own the rights to unicorns or turtles I don't really care about that, its more the ones like Lovander where it looks like they straight up just pallet swapped a pokemon and added a few details and called it a new design. FireWorksWell posted:Yeah that's where I am. I think the best case scenario for this game where action is taken is that they have to change some of the obvious copies. I've seen "what about digimon" off site but I can't think of a single digimon (or general mon game,) design that comes as close as some of these Pals. Yeah, I've seen Dragon Quest's monsters used as a comparison but there's really zero chance of mistaking one for the other. I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo just says to remove a large amount of potentially infringing material and the palworld devs do, because doing that would be far cheaper than taking it to court.

I think bases "turn off" if you don't visit them after a while. I visited my ore outpost after a time and everyone there unfroze and went to work, and there wasn't that much ore for me to collect.

if nintendo actually intended to sue they would not release a statement about it until they were already suing.

Yeah Nintendo is famously litigious and Japan has much stricter laws on this (no concept of "fair use") so if they had anything they would've snapped it up after the announcement, like they do with fan games.
