- palworld is stealing from nintendo
- stealing from nintendo is always good
- palworld modified them enough to not violate copyright though
- palworld may have done this through stealing fan creations or ai art, it's not proven yet
thus there's an obvious answer here. it's only Morally Acceptable to play palworld if you use the mod that replaces all your little guys with the Pokemon they're based on. if it's "totally not pikachu" that's evil, but if it's just a fuckin pikachu, that's praxis
it'd be the worst day for gaming social media since. anything. ever. it'd be incredible. there would be no survivors
