    Ah yes, let’s make a clone of a clone.

    I’m so tired of original games being cloned and emulated.

    I just started up Shadow Warrior 3 and it’s just a clear rip-off of Doom and Ghostrunner.

      Calling Palworld a clone is a bit dishonest. While it’s pretty clear that the art style and some HUD elements are heavily inspired, the game basically achieved what Pokémon never could. You can’t be a clone of a product that never existed. Pokémon Company is probably the laziest game developer that somehow manages to avoid bankruptcy in face of lack of any new ideas.
