Nexus Mods “not comfortable” hosting Palworld Pokemon mods
Nexus Mods tells PCGamesN that it is uncomfortable with Palworld Pokemon mods on the platform for fear of a Nintendo copyright claim.
Well no shit, it's copyright infringement. That's what DMCA Safe Harbour provisions are there for.
50There are plenty of Pokemon mods for other games on Nexus, as well as other mods that incorporate copywritten content.
I’m guessing they just got scared off after that guy got a dmca for making a Pokemon mod, even tho part of why they did was because they were paywalling it.
45This is currently a very high-profile game where the focus is being "gritty Pokemon," so mods like that would be far more noticed.

Someone made a mod to fuck the pokémon, or if they haven't already, they will. People are fucking weird.
29Well, some are even weirder, some made a legal department to fuck over their own customers.

Game kinda already has that implied. One pal's description says that pal is looking for a night of love and at first it was only going after other pals, but eventually started chasing humans too. I'm not kidding.
12Even real Pokémon has things like humans marrying Pokémon in its lore. Not at all a surprise that the "Edgy Pokémon" would push the boundary a little further.
