For anyone considering the game, there’s a relevant quote from the developer in one of their blog posts, that I think could help them decide whether it’s a game for them or not:

Although Pal World is a very interesting game, I would like to add one point: it is not at all suitable for players who prefer single-player games and want to enjoy the story, so please be aware of that. There’s almost no story, so those people won’t enjoy it. Fans of survival craft genres such as Minecraft and Valheim will enjoy this game.

Are there any metrics that also include GamePass players? Considering it’s included, I have to imagine that’s a sizeable chunk.

Not really, but that record number was set at the height of its release. I was told the number is really high because it took off in China, but it has me wondering why other games haven’t done the same. Does Steam no longer include or receive player counts from China? Are other games just not as big of hits there? I am specifically curious if Palworld has a large number of players in China.

I’m not a fan of survival games. Is Palworld that fun? I may give it a try. It’s on Game pass anyway.

Why not go watch a few live streams first?

What does that have to do with seeing if the gameplay looks fun? I mean, I suppose they could recommend some YouTube “let’s play” videos instead, but either way, watching someone play the game in a contiguous timeline is probably the best way to see if it looks fun.

Nintendo owns a stake in the franchise, but doesn’t do the development
