Then we have artists from other gaming studios that are jumping into the Palworld controversy bandwagon. Shouldn’t these artists focus on their games? Or how about this? You are a 3D artist so you most likely have the appropriate tools installed on your PC. Export a 3D model from Palworld and do some investigation. It should be easy for you.

What a dumb take. Leaving the whole palworld debacle aside, is this person seriously saying that game artists shouldn't ever do anything that's not directly related to their game? Are they going to tell Gordon Ramsey to stop making TV programs to focus on cooking? People aren't defined by their job.

Saying artists would already have the tools installed is also kinda dumb. Just because they can open and edit files doesn't mean they would have tools and knowledge to rip them from the game.

Earlier in the article they're blaming the media for not properly investigating these claims, something I can somewhat get behind, but why is this now also being extended to game artists? Should everyone fact check every single claim they see on the internet?

Before regurgitating it?

It's the bare minimum.

YES. Yes. 100% yes. If you are going to accept a claim you see online or repeat it in any way, you absolutely need to confirm it.

Only if you care about the truth.
