While the art style may be similar, side-by-side there's lots of very clear differences it's not a copy of the assets in Stardew as far as I can see. And to be fair, there were a great many that used the Stardew art-style before Stardew. This type of pixel-art has been around for a very long time.

Quoting: TheRiddickThis was probably spurred up by Pokemon cultists frothing at the mount in anger on reddit who no doubt were hounding Nintendo and Pokemon company every 5minutes to sue/delete PalWorld!The state of social media is frankly batshit crazy, people frothing at the mouth "defending" Pokemon and Nintendo, going on some kind of crusade as if Nintendo gives a shit about anything but profits. It amazes me how people knight for companies like this, I've rarely seen anything like it. People absolutely determined to find things wrong with Palworld.

Quoting: CybolicAs for AI generated content, I am absolutely fine with it as long as it's used at the same level as mood-boards, reference photos and the like has already been used for ages already, or for "non-artistic" use, such as seamless textures (clouds, rocks, grass, etc.). Once we get into the territory of AI content being used instead of actual artists, that's when I start disliking it.Currently, there's no proof at all that Palworld used AI in any way - just FYI. It's all speculation.

Quoting: CgamerOn the other hand is Capcom going to remove support for their games on Steam Deck. Monster Hunter World and Rise will get the new "Enigma" DRM making them unable to use on the Deck. I'm really disappointed.This was already covered in a previous article and mentioned at the bottom of this one.
Quoting: SaiyanRaohIs there something I’m missing? I think HDR has always worked for the listed games. Especially RE2 and 3.As noted in the article, some changes were already in other Proton versions. There's multiple versions of Proton but this is the main stable one.

The link has changed a couple of times, as it seems they're working out the GitHub organisation structure and splitting it across different things. So it's updated to the latest correct one.
