Is Palworld any good?

Depends on your perspective. Valheim is a good game held back by retarted devs who let their golden goose die of old age. Palheim has similar potential but only time will tell if the nips can get their heads out of their asses long enough to see it through.

As for right now, it's only $30 and it's pretty fun as far as surcrap goes. The honeymoon period is obviously the sweetest so if you're intending to play it either get into it now or don't bother for a few years. If you are a jaded millennial who hates TPC for squandering pogeymans then you will probably see some value in the game because it lets you do cool stuff with your pogeys like ride them, play with them on command, and use them as flamethrowers.
