Jaws of Death
Don’t get too attached to your adorable little Pikmin. Like foot soldiers in the grist mill of a war, they are highly expendable. Forest creatures gobble them down as if they were birthday cake. We feel the game wasn’t gory enough to really do justice in portraying Pikmins’ selfless sacrifice for the greater good, so we’ve re-envisioned Pikmin in all their pint-sized glory facing down the jaws of certain death.
Relive death in Pikmin:
Palworld dev says the studio went dark for months because "the team was getting burnt out from all the social media stuff, I was getting burnt out, our CEO was under attack in Japan"
Metaphor: ReFantazio had to dial back an early battle system inspired by a notoriously brutal 2003 JRPG, because 20 years later, players found it "irrational" and "just not fun"
