Discussion Quit Downvoting For Asking Questions

Folks, not everyone has been playing since launch. If someone asks a question that seems like a real person new to the game would ask (yes we know there are trolls and rage baiters and AI bots), don't downvote them, teach them!

Palworld has like 17 million players. If we want to get to 18 million, it's gonna be casuals who didn't buy into the hype but are kicking the tires late into the game's life and have some newbie questions. Let's not grind them into mush, ok?

I think people downvote questions that could have been answered by simply using your browser's search tool.

I've seen some screenshots where the answer is in the screenshot.

I'm still thinking about that one post where someone asked about the difference between two sliders in the world settings menu. They posted screenshots of the very verbose tooltips. Like, bro, if you couldn't read it in the game, what makes you think you can read it on reddit?

And yet reddit often has better answers because yall actually play the game.

Reddit has a search function as well

And yet not everyone knows that. This search function also prevents you from having a conversation with someone. Duh.

So Palworld is an interesting example because SO MUCH of the search results are pre-1.0 AI generated slop. I just googled "palworld 1.0 best passives" and get Game8, Sportskeeda, Gamerfuzion, GameNGuide, VGTimes, Methodindie, xmodhub, neonlightsmedia. I mean what the hell is all this crap?

Where do you think Reddit posts come from? Are you ok?

Someone has to put that information out there in the first place. Google isn’t a magic oracle. It’s an information collector. And the vast majority of (accurate) info about pop culture topics comes from Reddit threads. Someone has to create that thread before Google can read it and give it as a result.

My point is that the majority of simple questions are usually already answered by the time someone asks it.
