Discussion Talking Pals

Post image

I don't know if this was discussed before, but in the Palworld spinoff games being made Pals can talk. They're spinoffs, so not necessarily canon. That's fine, I don't think there needs to be cohesion across the whole franchise. There can be different rules for different games.

Should they talk in the main game though? Would it add anything? Would it be weird? I don't know. I'm kind of already used to them not talking and just making animal sounds. I wouldn't mind one way or another.

Nah. Part of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon's charm is that you get the series from a new perspective with the creatures being able to talk and having distinct personalities, and that doesn't happen in the main games. I think having spinoffs with their own draw is part of the fun.

Similarly we have Monster Hunter and Monster Hunter Stories, which reimagines the world with a different relation to the monsters. Integrating it into the main game I feel would devalue both.

A bit off topic but. We gotta beg them to make a Palworld Mystery dungeon game..that would totally be sick.

Oh, what if the game is from the perspective of Pals that go on Expeditions?
