Palworld is a rip off of Ark and BotW with Pokemon aesthetics. It opened early access the same year sword and shield came out. Before that Pokemon was not a big 3D open world type game. It also doesn’t include the survival/base building or FPS features in Pokemon. While palworld may be a derivative game, it is for sure different enough.

There is stuff like the palbox or the pokeball things that I could see them be dinged for though.

I wouldn't argue that the game play is different.

… have you played either game? Cuz… how would you not argue that? One is a turn based RPG the other is an FPS.

I just said that I would not argue that. That means that I think the game play is different.
