I read that some of these assets haven’t been available for purchase since 2016 so the studio is probably pirating the assets. I also read they are not letting you buy via Steam, you have to buy from their website and they’ll send you a Steam key. Sounds like they’re trying to get around the refund window. I can’t wait to follow the drama on this one when everyone gets scammed.
If a team can't sort out those problems using 3rd party assets, what makes you think they're capable of doing better? Trying to do everything themselves will just make their crappy game take 10x longer (and probably worse). Not finishing your game in the first place is a much more common problem.
Because it's actually easier and less time consuming for someone who knows what they're doing to make an art asset from scratch than to hack apart someone else's to suit your own art style.
Hey after the Palworld experience i'm confident someone will shit out a successful MMO sooner than later. Eventually all of these assets will be cobbled together and it'll be better than the hand crafted piece of work Ashes of Creations is. Just maybe Quinfall is it
