I guess it’s just an age thing, but I honestly don’t see the issue with stuff like this. Like it’s not even over-the-top or anything like that.

Cute, I like that.

That one I don't get. Why not just have Yanma partner up with another AncientPower evolver?

I think that is a reference to the pair of Team Cipher grunts who has those same Pokémon? I did not yet play this fangame.
 
What are the chances that people are going use this game as a way to propagandize and say palworld is at fault for this game's existence? this drama only seems like a way to try and drag palworld into another whirlpool of drama, which also feels like a nothing burger since palland didn't even get that much of a reaction just like that one moba clone that copied palworld which is confusing considering how this ripoff "game" got traction while the others didn't, which one got shut down and the other got delisted from the store, which hopefully this will also follow suit since it won't get much traction within the few days or a week if nintendo or palworld or any of the other ips that were ripped off in this are generous.

Oh, it’s already happening on X. Even got people trying to claim “PalWorld stole Pokémon’s assets!” again despite that shit being debunked almost immediately.

It is really over the top. And being burnt out on degenerates wanting to fuck everything and their own mother gets annoying. It doesn't seem over the top to you because "milf sister" is normalized to you, but any one else hearing "Sister I'd like to fuck" is going to find it strange.. and then it's a furry character. And it's based on a plant dinosaur. It's got many tiers of weird.

Pickmons doesn't seem anything special. Pal world is just the latest minecraft. It's popular so we get clones.

It’s not over the top to me because it’s a just a bunch of fictional stuff. I don’t care if it’s a woman based on a plant dinosaur, neither the woman or the plant dinosaur actively exist.

How do you feel knowing people already finished the game day 1? You CAN take it slower, it's like Animal Crossing in that regard, but people who want to just get through the story quickly can easily do so in a whole day.

Shit like this reminds me of when people were saying you could run around ZA's map in like 10 minutes.

Sure, if you purposefully ignore everything else except the campaign, you can probably run it in ~16 hours. IIRC most of the fallout gakes are around 20-25 hours for basic campaign runs, but that doesn't mean they are 20-25 hour games.

That being said, I'm not buying an entirely new $500 console plus a $70 "game key card" for Pokemon Minecraft/Animal Crossing when I could probably make/play the same or a better experience with Cobblemon.

That isn't any better. I just want to enjoy monster cock fighting without someone trying to fuck them.

Something something leave the multi-billion dollar company alone
 
@The Ultimate Ramotith

Thanks for doing the patch, obrigado amigo você é um amigo.

Also I realized that the guy who did the hack stopped with that shitty white outline that he did in emerald seaglass, I wonder if someone fixed for him or he understood that it was bad. (The Pokemon moving after the battle is still in this game.)

My gameplay so far:

I beat the third gen, so far the game has been quite mid. One of the worst surprises is that he went and made a even worse version of the fishing mode in pokemon ruby and sapphire where you had to push the button at that very specific time, but now you have to hold it in ways that for anyone using fast forward is inpossible.

There are some visual bugs like this where we shouldn't be able to walk and sometimes I get vanishing sprites too

So far there is nothing mindblowing and fun like the diving minigame in seaglass. There was one function that was quite nice: inside the center you can sleep and advance the clock so you can capture nocturnal/diurnal pokémon which this game seems to enforce but I don't want to do it.

Also this is my current team after the third gym. My rule when building a team is that I have to use pokémons that I never used before, so these are what I choose.

It isn't balanced at all but the first areas only had older pokemon that I used before and there isn't much variety unless I would check timezone after timezone.

My team is also very physical and I want at least some special damage dealer. I caught a Falinks but I am not sure how he fits in this team yet.

The game story and characters so far are very bland. I can already feel that this isn't going to be like Unbound where I hated the main story and loved the side stories. This so far has the vibe that I will not care for neither.

There is some dudes in every area that wants me to caught every single pokemon for some reward. This isn't it, at least the missions in unbound were varied like getting items or specific pokemon to show for them.

Amazon is now charging $80 for hard copies of Pokopia due to lack of supply. (Archive) Digital copies are still $69.99 ofc.

It's gonna be really funny if Dragon Quest Builders: Pok3mon outsells Legends Z-A. DQB2 was fun.

What's the point of buying it physical? It's not even a really a real physical release. When you plug the cart in you still need to download the game.

It's a "GAME-KEY CARD" game, the cart is empty except a key to download it off the eShop, you might as well get it digitally. When the eShop discontinues downloads for Switch 2 those carts will be useless. This is 100% a digital release.

The shortage probably only exists because they never made that many copies because the physical release is a useless product.

I like hearing about young fans looking back at the older generations. His story of how he came across Pokémon Red as a kid is so neat, literally came across a discarded copy while walking along train tracks.

It's basically giving people the option to resell the game but having all of the bullshit with both physical and digital games.

It'll probably follow similar rules to Wii/Wii U/3DS downloads where previously purchased titles can be redownloaded, only slightly altered to where having the Game-Key card will allow you to download the game even if the actual Switch 2 eShop goes down. But that's placing trust in Nintendo keeping their word and we all know big corps lie.

The shortage is more than likely due to Nintendo and Koei Tecmo underestimating the demand for a physical release, similar issues plagued niche IPs (I know physical copies of the Switch's WarioWare titles aren't too common in brick-and-mortar stores) in the past.

It looks like the Wii U and 3DS eShops still allow downloads of already purchased software and probably will for maybe two or three more years (except Latin America and The Caribbean for some reason). But the Wii's Shop Channel stopped purchases in 2019 and promised downloads will be stopped soon after, it seems you were allowed to re-download purchased titles up until 2023 though. Apparently you can still download firmware updates for the Wii so there's that lol.

So if the Switch 2's eShop is going to be anything like the Wii's Shop Channel. Those GAME-KEY CARDs will be useless around 2042. Since the Wii and it's Shop Channel was released in 2006 and truly died 17 years later.

Maybe downloads of purchased content will be possible for longer on the Switches than the Wii because of how many more purchases will be lost otherwise, but they will all be lost eventually. I don't know about you lot, but I want to be able to go back and play these games in more than another 17 years.

I’m sorry but I just don’t buy that story. It’s like the people who claim they’ve been collecting cards since 1996 or playing the games since 1996.
