We talk about Palworld
The hosts of the Jetpack Swords podcast discuss their recent gaming experiences, including Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Far Cry 6, and other games. They also discuss their thoughts on the future of gaming, including the potential for virtual reality to become more mainstream.
The hosts are all fans of Assassin's Creed Valhalla, but they have some criticisms of the game. They believe that the game is too long and that there is too much filler content. They also criticize the game's combat system, which they find to be repetitive and uninspired.
The hosts are less enthusiastic about Far Cry 6. They find the game to be too similar to previous Far Cry games and they criticize the story for being too predictable. They also criticize the game's open world, which they find to be too large and empty.
Despite their criticisms, the hosts still enjoy gaming and they are optimistic about the future of the industry. They believe that virtual reality has the potential to revolutionize gaming and they are excited to see what new innovations come out in the years to come.
