Stinky Tofu and Fungal Delights

palworld-designs

I started playing Palworld over the weekend, since me and my partner were looking for an open-world game to play together. Palworld is so great and fun! It's my current fixation. The character movement and open-world environment really reminds me of Genshin (which I know is similar to Zelda Breath of the Wild, but I haven't played yet), which I really enjoy.

I've only been playing Palworld for the past 3 days but I'm getting a feeling that like the dev and design team was made up of a lot of guys. UGHHHHHHHH I'm just not a fan of all the many bi-pedal animals with tiny waist, thick thighs, and long lashes. Don't get me wrong, I love cunty, feminine designs. I also think a lot of them are cunty asf. I just think a lot of them feel like they're catering to a certain audience... and it makes me uncomfortable. Maybe I'm reading too much into it though. But... am I though?

Sekhmet PalworldSehkmet and Anubis AnubisPalworld

I'm pretty sure these pals are suppose to be like the M/F of each other. Also there's def more than 1 pal with similar build as Sehkmet. I don't believe there's a singular "macho bro" pal that has a similar build to Incineroar or smth. BRUHH. To be fair though, I haven't explored and seen all the pals yet. But, of the area I've explored I know of 3 pals that fits my earlier descriptions but no "macho bro" pals yet.

In general I do really enjoy the game, but seeing all the pals with that build is just takes me out of the gaming experience sometimes. Again, I don't think the designs are inherently bad, I think they are super nice and you can tell what their typing/ element and inspirations are. It's the intent that weirds me out. It's like they purposely made some sexy pals. But only sexy feminine pals. Weird. I think if they made pals that were catered to the female gaze that would make it less uncomfortable and weird? Maybe they did and that's where all the cute lil dues are for??? I don't know man. UGHHHHHHHHHHH.

Still gonna play this game hella though.

After I play for a lot longer and get access to all the pals, I'll update this rant to see if I was unjustly ranting or justly.
