"I hope more devs flow in to the space"

You mean Cassette Beasts, Beastie Ball, FUCKING DIGIMON, TemTem etc?

So why is palworld seemingly so much more successful? Niche games like these mean nothing if they don't appeal to a broad enough audience to be successful. I would have initially said the same thing about palworld but now it's the #1 game on steam of all time and in hindsight it is so easy to see why.

"Niche games mean nothing"

Digimon is niche to you? The multimedia giant with multiple shows, frequent game releases, merchandise and even a card game which blew up in the TCG scene? The vital bracelet? Digimon Survive? Everything?????

Have you been living under a rock? Digimon had a huge resurgence in the last few years.
