    Aren’t free mods under fair use? There’s plenty of copyrighted material on nexusmods and even steam workshop, always has been and I hope always will be. The only issue with palworld pokemon mod was it’s monetization afaik.

      1. Japan doesnt really have a concept of fair use. Nintendo can and does go after a wide variety of things that might have been considered fair use elsewhere.

      2. What this mod did would not be considered fair use anywhere else either.
