Yeah that’s kind of the point.

(Also wtf are you smoking? “Travel the world collecting animals to be on your team” is the core concept)

Except Palworld isn't what you described. It's "build a base and capture mons and people to out to work at your base so you can climb the tech tree and build guns to fight the boss mons".

Yeah, ok? The fresh mechanics Pokemon has needed for a long time now. Also, still rounding up ‘mons to build a team to accomplish goal.

It was similar enough that Nintendo had to tell its fans to shut the hell up about it.

Palworld is the facelift Pokemon needed.

Stapling a survival crafter to a bad pokemon knockoff is not my idea of "fresh mechanics".

One is an RPG and the other is a crafting survival,

Palworld is just ARK with the dinosaurs replaced by off brand Pokémon,
