  Palworld is mine. I’ve been loving it so far.

  I’d say a couple things though:

  1. don’t expect perfection. It’s still early access and there are bugs. They put out a patch last night that fixed some of the most glaring issues, but there’s still some wonky stuff. I’d recommend, when you build your base, to keep all the workstations that pals use on the ground level, and build two levels up off the first floor if/when you want to add another. Some larger pals can’t get through single tall doorways.

  2. Feel free to play around with your server settings if you want things a little easier/harder (but I’d say definitely turn off structure decay right away, and maybe increase pal spawn rate slightly, mine is at 1.2x and feels good). The game is almost entirely customizable to what you want it to be, everything between super casual fun and hardcore survival is easy to set up.

  3. Don’t stress about min/maxing everything just yet. First of all, you probably simply don’t need it while leveling up. Second, people don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about yet. There are conflicting sources for the best of pretty much everything. So just play how you like (but I’d say wait until you have a pal you know you’ll use endgame before powering it up with essence/condensing, those can’t be refunded to my knowledge).

    How good is the performance/controls for playing on Steam Deck?

      Oh that’s my bad. I missed what community this was in. I don’t have any steam deck specific knowledge.

      I’ve heard about some performance issues on multiplayer servers for console users, but iirc most people don’t have issues for single player. Wish I could say more but I’ve only played on PC, sorry.

        That’s fine, I was just curious because Your previous answer sounded like you had a lot of experience in the game.
