I think part of why they did succeeded, is because of Nintendo bringing attention to them. So, a lot protest purchased the game, and ended up liking it.

Lol They faced a high risk on two ends. One, the money side which would have basically ended them if Palworld failed. And two, Nintendo. Which they are currently still in a lawsuit with.

They had the resources yes, but they wanted to prove a point. And they did so. $9M isn’t unusual for an indie company. Take PocketPair as well, they risked bankruptcy and pulled through. Wasn’t the best idea, but risks are sometimes taken.

All I am saying, is to support where the talent is coming from and acknowledge it. Since all denying it does, is discrediting the independent community.

Many indies are between $5M to $30M. It is within the ballpark of a huge risk, but also a lower break even point to turn a profit.

And didn’t they succeed against the odds? They were ex developers from Ubisoft. When they went in, they are starting from the bottom. Games are volatile, without a money backing from shareholders. A project like that can ruin them. If they didn’t hit the mark, that might have been it for the...

So, to cut it short. Indie = Independent = Privately Owned/No Shareholders. AAA = Publicly Traded/Beholden to Shareholders.

An indie can have hundreds of employees, millions upon millions in budget. However, so long as they remain independent. They are indies. They are also, always at risk, because they do not have a near limitless supply of money. Unlike shareholder owned studios. Also referred to as AAA, a...

Well then, Envy’s origin story I see. :blob_hmm: That or their doppleganger, good knowing ya friend. :blob_evil_two:

However, some bosses requires Eternal Awakening to break their shield. So timing its usage and recovery is important. The music is amazing, same with art style.

The game has daily events, where you rank for the premium currency. And after like 20 pulls, you get a guaranteed 5 stars. Let alone sometimes they give it out from story events, etc. One skill to have on is the evasion Phantom Strike. As this will be the linchpin in longer battles. The game...

@Envylope Just don’t accidentally erase the memories of the worst game you ever played. :blob_neutral:
