Why Palworld’s Tides of Terraria Update Could Be Premature

Alright, here it goes.

—

So, here’s the thing about Palworld and that new Tides of Terraria update they’re talking about. It’s supposed to drop sometime around late summer 2025—though knowing how these things go, it might show up right when you’re least expecting it, like an unwanted relative at Christmas. Anyway, it’s this big crossover with Terraria, which is already a bit of a curveball considering Terraria’s all 2D vibes, and Palworld’s somewhere on a very different spectrum. But who am I to judge?

Now, I’ll admit, adding new monsters and all that jazz can be like opening a new bag of chips. You can’t help yourself, right? But with Palworld still being in early access…well, it gets messy. Like they’re trying to put on lipstick before even brushing their teeth. Yeah, I know, bad analogy, but you get it, right?

So they’re bringing this crossover thing to the table maybe a bit too quick. You know, they still got all these little kinks in the game, like a squeaky door they haven’t oiled yet. And I keep thinking, why the rush? Like, who’s chasing them with a stopwatch?

And before I wander too far off track, let me just say this. Focusing on this new update might mean other stuff stays broken. Or maybe it’s just me being cynical. But really, why not wait till the game’s all neat and shiny? Leaving it half-baked feels…uh, sketchy.

They say it’s like setting up the stage for something epic. But honestly, maybe holding back would give Palworld more time to flex those muscles, you know? It’s like they’re baking a cake but putting the frosting on too soon. Now isn’t that a sight?

If I were Pocketpair, maybe I’d push this whole thing back a bit, like hit pause and let the dust settle. Do the fine-tuning first, get that engine purring, and then boom—give us that crossover when we’re all gasping for more. Makes sense, right? But hey, maybe my thoughts are just balloons bumping around a ceiling at this point. Who really knows?

Bottom line: let’s hope Pocketpair’s got some master plan up their sleeves and they’re not just throwing spaghetti at the wall here. Fingers crossed.
