Other lore rants:

I take everything said in the journals and paldeck entries as fact for how that world works. So keeping that in mind, a lot of what’s said in the journals is put into the game (ex: moon being full all the time like Saya said in her journals and how bodies randomly disappear) that anyone who didn’t read the read the journals would probably think is just how that game worked. That’s exactly what I thought before I had the story we have so far.

But that begs the question, how far does the video game logic go? My mind has just automatically compared it to different games as many have with its designs. My mind, however, has compared more similar concepts. Rain world treats death in a very interesting way where respawning in cannon. Even when you die, you just wake up where you slept last. Palworld has something that feels similar. Now, I know that when you die in palworld you get to spawn in a variety of options depending on how many bases you have. But, this is where my question comes back. Where is the line drawn?

Is this why we can keeping fighting the tower bosses over and over again? Is this why pals just disappear when defeated? It feels like the best explanation so far but then again, how can we know whether or not it’s just to make creating the game easier for pocketpair.

I’m not too sure about this but I’d love to know what anyone else thinks since this has been eating away at my brain and I’d love some input. Anyway, thanks for reading

I’m losing my mind :3

This is just a rant about pal world since I wasn’t sure where else to do it. This is mostly just my ideas and speculations on what’s really going with the lore. If you have any ideas feel free to comment them since I’d love to see if anyone else has thoughts on the lore of pal world.

I want to start with the factions since they have the most lore and I can’t really talk about any faction without talking the main character of each one, the leader. Zoe lost both of her parents in ways that aren’t fully clear and her first journal isn’t super clear on it either. “My father disappeared a long time ago, and I’ve never seen my mother’s face.” I don’t have any guesses on what happened to her mom, but she does mention her father being their last boss. I have a feeling it has something to do with the towers we see around the map. I think that when any one of the tower bosses goes into their tower, they are stuck forever, or at least until they die. There aren’t too many times when the tower bosses mention how they feel about being in their tower but Zoe is probably the best we got to seeing what it’s like. In her final entry, she talks about how she doesn’t understand why she’s defending the tower or why she’s even there. It’s apparently just a tradition to pass it down through their family to keep some great power at bay. What is this power? No one knows yet. I feel like it has something to do with the giant tree in the far north side of the islands.

Not a lot is exactly known about the tree and it’s only ever acknowledged once in one of the castaway’s journals. I think it will help answer a lot of questions since at the start of the game it says “the towers are the key, the tree holds the truth.” This is what I want answered the most. What really is the truth? I’ll save that for another rant. For now, back to Zoe. She’s been around the syndicate her whole life. That’s how she got Grizzbolt after they escaped together then eventually came back only to be attacked by the syndicate. She also doesn’t seem to know too much about the Free Pal Alliance. She mentioned talking about it to one of the grunts but they only told her their rivalry has lasted for years that it’s too late to make amends. Even with that, she doesn’t say any more or try to learn more. Then there’s a large time skip to her final entries. She only talks about how she doesn’t understand why she’s protecting the tower and she wants to see the outside world after seeing so many outsiders drift onto the island.
