…but I’m mature enough to admit when I’m wrong so when it was pointed out that everything official pointed to it being mainline I adjusted my own expectations and definitions rather than trying to force my opinion as facts

My guess is it’s more of an emotional response from people judging the meaning by how they feel about it. That was the case for me when Let’s Go first came out, I assumed it spin off as it didn’t match my criteria for mainline and didn’t see an official source to it being mainline until later.

For some reason my dumb ass read Archaludon as Archen and couldn’t see the problem 🤣

I’m really curious to see how they handle this game. I feel like it could be a huge game - “cosy” games are often a lot bigger than some people realise, think there’s often a perception of “aimed at casual games so will have no content” - but often there’s an insane amount of things in these games

I’m wondering if the key card release might be in part because they’re planning to trickle release content to the game in the same way Animal Crossing New Horizons did. I always prefer a full game on a cartridge, but looking at the original release of ACNH and I can see my cart is basically a key c

And that was just mechanic difference, before you even get to lore and history within the franchise!

I remember at school discussing Pokémon with a friend who said “Ash’s Pikachu must be level 100 by now” and my response of “the anime doesn’t work the same way as the games” blew his mind. Before that it never occurred to me that anyone would even think they’re both the same thing 🤣

I will accept sensible criticism that SV were probably the messiest Pokemon games at launch in terms of being buggy but most of the criticism is exaggerated and misses that SV are probably the most ambitious Pokemon games in terms of scale too. Best storyline of any Pokémon game too in my opinion.

There were some issues with the final launch but all the ones that got memed about were at the very least from copies that didn’t have the day 1 patch. I played an absolute shit ton of hours and the worst issues I had were a couple of times when the picnic table spawned underground🤣

I also feel the games don’t need actual voice acting but I do think that developing a “Pokemon vocal languages (like Animal Crossing or Sims) would be a good medium to deal with the constant complaint. As the graphics are slowly improving it does start to look more odd with nothing -especially songs

Honestly it’s not for me, but then I generally hate any PvP online function. Played it enough to get Greningite, now forgetting about it until the next one!

I’ve noticed in a Facebook group for a different game that some people are just so incredibly dumb they can’t function without other people doing all the legwork for them.
“How come I don’t have X task on my game?”
“Go to that screen and press the arrow that’s right there.”

I tried a couple of times (still fairly early in the game as I don’t want to rush through) and the match making seems bad, suspect it’s either totally random or based only on online rank meaning people early game getting matched against those with fully evolved teams 😬

Weird to me that there’s a limited number of codes - UK in store promos that use codes have always printed the code at the till meaning there isn’t a limited number available, just limited time to get them.

Thing is, logically I know that plans are made ahead of time, different departments work on stuff at different times etc, but I did find the DLC announcement made me feel less enthusiastic about the game in general. Made me reconsider my preorder with bonus items from Nintendo-might look for cheaper

And the DS/DSi/DS lite/3DS/2DS/3DS XL/2DS XL/New 3DS definitely had a bigger issue on that front where a lot of parents clearly had no idea about what games were compatible.

I can see a very slight issue with the name but it’s more to do with how there is likely to be a decent number of parents buying for their children who could get easily confused by stuff like this…but the. As a kid my mum didn’t know the difference between a GameCube and an Xbox 🤣

To be fair if you get the event then disconnect from the internet you can keep it running as long as you want (until you reconnect to the internet)

As a Brit this phrasing really confused me for a minute - thought you meant a melted one of these before I realised the literal meaning 🤣
