   palworld really said "hey what if we took this waste of imagination and gave it strangle murderer arms"
   
   and then named it hangyu and made it a strangle murderer

     @All_bonesJones Pokemon based on household items are the weirdest shit they never should've done, seriously

     @coolboymew i'm more ok with it in palworld
     
     like hangyu's loosely based on a noose but it's just as conceivably "orb with strangle murderer arms." the tiny orb-head with huge arms makes it hard to headshot and gives it decent damage output, so i can forgive it! that's actually a viable adaptation. like yeah it looks sort of like a noose but it's more a weird creature and if something can float without using limbs it makes sense to not have those limbs. the floating isn't an afterthought it's the core mechanic for the pal and literally why you want one
     
     related note: the sweetspot/sourspot mechanics in palworld are one of my favorite little touches for their monster designs. digtoise is durable and has high defense and naturally gains defense traits, but they really leaned into "this thing is a fucking tank" with the sourspot: hitting the shell that is like 90% of its available surface area deals reduced damage. thing's crazy survivable literally because it is protected by a shell. that's fucking great, that's pure soul, that's a genuine love for your product

     @All_bonesJones yeah but the issue with pokemon is that it literally looks like a common household item, quite literally
     
     It's just... why

     @birdulon @coolboymew a move where it grabs someone and yanks them upwards would be sick
