now shows the 404 and that’s the url that I use by default, because I prefer newest to go first
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Any EU based users of reddit should immediately file a complaint under GDPR with their supervisory authority42·1 year agoCould we sabotage the LLM training so the data became worthless?
Like adding to our comments stuff like “2+2=5” “Abraham Lincoln discovered America” and whatever silly statement you can think of

Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•The Pokémon Company Announces It Will ‘Investigate’ Palworld IP And Assets2·1 year agoThe thing is they literally took pokemon 3D assets, edited them a little and that’s all
Because pals look like this

but now IN 3D!!!
Pals

self-explanatory
For the thumbnail image, they took meoth face, purugly body and that’s it
These designs are not “inspired” they simply imported the assets from a pokemon game on blender or something, used “copy and paste” for different body parts and that’s it, job done that’s their completely original creature, totally not copied
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•Palworld’s success is partially born from Pokémon fans’ discontent1·1 year agoit wouldn’t have sold millions of units
People started to sell their steam accounts that owned the game and keys for the game for hundreds of dollars when it was announced the game was some bad that it was going to be removed from steam
If something is popular it will sell, the quality does not matter. You have the best example in Pokemon itself
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•Palworld’s success is partially born from Pokémon fans’ discontent1·1 year agoNo one will know what you’re looking for better than you, but people have been making games inspired by Pokemon for a long time now.
A Pokemon clone with high production values made in Japan. Or if it’s not made in Japan one that uses it own art style, I simply can’t stand the “Fake anime” aesthetic that most indies use, like they learned to draw using this as refference
Think of Shin Megami Tensei (but not SMT V, that one sucks, they removed the dungeon crawling and the puzzles)
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•Palworld’s success is partially born from Pokémon fans’ discontent2·1 year agoAs far as I can tell The Day Before was overhyped early and people bought it because of the marketing
https://www.reddit.com/r/TheDayBefore/comments/lwaach/people_keep_saying_its_a_scam_whats_the_scam/
That’s a 3 years old post. Everybody knew it was a scam back then. to the point the studio released “We are not a scam, trust me bro” statements (which made it more obvious it was a scam)
I don’t remember hearing about it before
Internet has been talking about “pokemon with guns” for 2 years or so since the developers were already famous because they launched a “Breath of the Wild” knock off (Craftopia) that also sold well (not at the same level of palworld, but for being the first title of a brand new indie studio it sold really well)
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•Palworld’s success is partially born from Pokémon fans’ discontent1·1 year agoThe problem with TemTem is that it’s an always online game, if the servers are turned off you won’t be able to play, not even the single player campaign so it’s a hard pass.
And the art style of both games are not my cup of tea, the do a disservice selling me the game.
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•Palworld’s success is partially born from Pokémon fans’ discontent4·1 year agoPokémon with guns wouldn’t have gotten millions of sales on its own
The day before sold millions (but this one was refunded by millions too) and everybody and their mom knew it was a scam since it was announced like 2 or 3 years ago. Internet is weird, if something becomes viral it will sell, the quality does not matter, people just wants to be in
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•Palworld’s success is partially born from Pokémon fans’ discontent10·1 year agoI don’t thinks so. It popular because “pokemon with guns” became a viral meme which sucks.
A a discontent pokemon fan myself I would love someone to make a pokemon clone since Game Freak is not really interested in doing good pokemon games anymore. But “Ark Survival Evolved with knockoff pokemon skins instead of dinosaurs” is not what I want
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialto/kbin meta@kbin.social•url link blocking. What happened to it.4·1 year agoYou can still do it

Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•Palworld Sells Over 1 Million Copies in Just 8 Hours as Steam Servers Struggle to Cope With Launch - IGN2·1 year agoThe last Pokemon game I played was Y. It was largely the same game as Blue and Gold
Except they removed all traces of dungeons/caves (they are simple hallways with no exploration) and puzzles
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialto/kbin meta@kbin.social•Anyway to get this spammer's account banned?1·1 year agoI just block those accounts, we as users cannot do much more, I think
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialto/kbin meta@kbin.social•Anyway to get this spammer's account banned?1·1 year agoToday we got a huge wave of spam accounts
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialtoGaming@kbin.social•US Supreme Court has had enough of Epic vs. Apple, refuses to hear appeals, Tim Sweeney says the fight to open-up iOS 'is lost… a sad outcome for all developers'1·1 year agoIf it’s so sad, developers could, you know, stop developing for iOS
Gordon_Freeman@kbin.socialto Moving to: m/AskMbin!@kbin.social•What's the point of paying with a check?1·1 year agoIdk if they are phased out in my country, but I have never seen people using them (only in American movies, but not irl) or even talking about them, not even in the 90s. Using them it sound so archaic and ancient
I think I’m going to give up on Kbin. Every time in enter it’s full of spam, so is not worth posting anything since is going to be buried in spam anyways
