Everything feels dead in Pal World

[Leon96]

I'm almost 28... It feels like a gigantic cookie cutter game that has an empty world with only mobs walking randomly...
Is there anything good about Pal World despite of you randomly throwing balls and making automatic mobs pop? You cant even control their power - can you? Am I missing something?

You are missing quite a lot.
Start with researching what "Early Access" means.
Also, try actually playing the game before posting.

Idk if this is bait or not, but. Listen, I've played a lot of alpha games and spent some good money on them. This is a pretty well developed game for an alpha, it's pretty playable despite some glitches and it's fun. I think more will come, but even then, if this is all there is, I've played worse and paid more. It's a fun kind of hybrid on the most 3 recent survival game genres and kinda combines them. Here's something, just build a big base and have fun with it and use your imagination. But, to each their own.

Early access means the developers can quit the project or change it without having to deal with legal actions - it's a form of production protection for the producer.
And why would i play something that feels dead on the first 5 hours?
there isn't anything compelling on the beggining.

My research on early access games provided ample evidence that this game will probably never be finished, the hacker problem will never be regulated, and only people with nothing going on in life will spend the next 5-10 years fan boying it until reality hits and they move onto the next open world hand-holding kumbaya simulator.

Certain Pals can be ridden and you can control what attacks they do from there.
I've come across a pack of Direhowls attacking a Jolthog Cryst a number of times, to the point I think it's less random chance and more something that's suppose to happen.
Human enemies attack and are attacked by Pals whenever they're in the same area. Sometimes they even attack each other even if they're in the same faction.

I understand what you mean but the world isn't as dead as you make it out to be. It's an early access game that's been out for less than a month. On top of that it's yet another crafting survival game which relies on the player to make their own content for huge stretches of time. It may be best to put the game down until a few more content drops happen if you're not the type to get into base building and the like.

so you are naturally negative and show disrespect to the effort already put in by devs on many games so far. buy the game and until you at least know what you are talking about save the trash talk. you look like an idiot attempting this when you don't even have the game.

the late game stuff seems a little bit better then... guess i'll drop it for some time 'till they add a story or something (if they ever do it, that is).

You don't have to play something, you're just automatically wrong when claiming what it feels like when you haven't played it. Don't want to play it ? Don't. Wanna be able to tell if it feels dead or not ? You're gonna have to play at some point. Just make up your mind.

it's not it. i feel like I already played it 200x on other games. I asked what is unique about it? i'm a single player guy. there's nothing in the beggining that felt good despite of some random pokemon like monsters... that's why i asked - am i missing something? i came as far as to make that green pokeball thing and dropped it because all i've done is repetitive. i guess i should've tried multiplayer because the SP experience is bad.

Automation of your base which will get more complex, not Terraia, Minecraft, Factorio level but it would be fun setting it all up and watching it run.
