      Or Transformers / GoBots.

      Or Care Bears, if we're being particularly generous.

      you do that in normal pokemon. you capture them, breed them, trade them like chattel and use them for pit fights. You bring Oak excess captured pokemon and he gives you back a corresponding amount of that pokemon's "candy" that you feed to your pokemon to EV train them.

      It's not "enslaving", it's exchanging labor in exchange for room and board!

    Palworld features an opioid balancing mini game. Because healthcare is neither free nor universal, you have to seek out street drugs to soothe your Pals’ pain. Too much and you gotta abandon it by the side of the road and start over.

      I was about to expand on this but because I found it funny af, then it just became extremely depressing the more I wrote

    I have waited for what feels like years to be the very best deranged palworld trainer. I am so excited to commit crimes against palmanity.

    Nooooo, I just started playing graveyard keeper; I want this one too but it'll need just as much attention if not more.

    Small mercy though: with early access I can justify ignoring it for now until it's out of EA and then worry about giving it attention.

      Im not in a hurry to play it since its gonna be early access but I share your interest. At the very least it looks pretty out there.

    that could be genuinely cool though if it has proper worldbuilding. Maybe you are a member of the Pal Revolution and, despite the usual avoidance of traditional weaponry in Pal Battles, have begun using them to attack and upend the ruling classes (trainers)?

    All of the Pals follow you voluntarily because you read Marx? Maybe you do quick monkey wrenching attacks on Pallyball factories?

    Next there will be a lavender town syndrome game and a computer warrior Porygon simulator.
