That was disproven several times - the guy who claimed it even admitted he'd altered Palworld's assets to show that supposed 'similarity'

Do you have a source for that? This is the first I'm seeing that the claims were fraudulent.

The guy apparently rescaled the models to make them similar in size, which, idk if I'd call that altering

I still think it's kind of a BS claim though

Source? Or is this a "dude trust me"

Screenrant Article here from a day ago. It does still state that Nintendo intends to investigate, but most of the stolen/copied asset claims have been refuted or rescinded. With the main "they stole assets" person admitting they fabricated the proof because they hate how Palworld glorifies animal abuse (which is extremely ironic to me because no one had a problem when Pokémon was cockfighting for children)
