What were you doing for the majority of those 30 hours? Most likely resource gathering, building your base, optimizing pal usage, etc… Basically the only similarity is that you throw spheres at creatures. There’s no gyms, no turn based gameplay, no trading, no evolution, and not even really trainer battles, just some unique encounters.
It only has a surface level similarity to pokemon. It’s as much like fallout 4 as it is pokemon.
palworld is more like ark anyway
Idk I literally went around just catching pals and spent 30 hours doing that, seems pretty pokemon to me.

You: “bet you had to optimize and synergize and energize…”
Me: “haha, crossbow and pal sphere go brrr.”
As long as you can see it’s not pokemon lol
