With the implementation of Patch v0.5.5 this week, we must make yet another compromise. From this patch onward, gliding will be performed using a glider rather than with Pals. Pals in the player’s team will still provide passive buffs to gliding, but players will now need to have a glider in their inventory in order to glide.

How lame. Japan needs to fix its patent laws, it's ridiculous Nintendo owns the simple concept of using an animal to fly.

Does your comment make sense as a response to my comment?

I'm confused why the devs stuck their head in the jaws of a sue happy monster. I ask, "But what was the point? What did they plan to happen?"

And you tell me Nintendo shouldn't own mechanics? Like... I know that. I am so used to people misunderstanding me, that I specifically go back and add a huge banner saying "I agree with you." I can call Nintendo assholes, call copyright broken, paint the devs as good but naive, and I still get "listen here, Nintendo is bad. Copyright is broken."
