I’m really hoping that they “delay” the next generation a year. SV were buggy enough that they had to apologize, so hopefully that’s finally enough for them to at least give a little more time for polish. Instead of the usual 3-year cadence, if they take just 1 more year this time that should be enough at least to…

Frankly, I’m not a big fan of the way the world worked in SV and think Arceus did it much better. Most of the map in SV is fairly unremarkable, just grassy hills, and the towns feel shallower than ever with no buildings to enter except gyms, with important NPCs being highlighted in yellow as if to say “don’t bother…

You could pick up pretty much any Jackbox Party Pack and be sure of a good time—10 just happens to be the most recent, released in late 2023.

Tears Of The Kingdom Devs Reveal The One Zelda Spin-Off They’d Never Make

Love this guy, what a good evolution line! Feels unfair that my favorite gen 9 Pokemon might be a split evo of one of my favorite gen 8 Pokemon, haha. Really love that this is made up of multiple dragons, like Dragapult.

No thank you, so many games have a boring minimalist UI these days, I’m happy for these games to have a lot of style

People have almost unfettered access to developers via social media (to the point of absurdity in my opinion), that really the only reason to have an E3 is just to say we had an E3.

What? The story is pretty much never a deconstruction of that. They’re usually shown to be as powerful as they’re stated to be, or if they’re not explicitly shown to, nothing contradicts it. A kid manages to catch them, but that’s no different than any other JRPG/anime where the protagonists kill a god. The closest…

Ehh, I think you’ve gone too far in the other direction. It shows they’re unreliable but it doesn’t show they’re all “complete fabrications” and plenty of legendaries have proven to be extremely powerful. Who’s to say Arceus isn’t a creator?

I liked what base SV did. I don’t mind a legendary being on the cover, and then other than those the only legendaries were the Treasures of Ruin, and those were fun to discover like old legendaries and still felt special to me. I don’t love that the DLCs for both SwSh and SV have gone kinda crazy with legendaries…

Everybody’s favorite Pokemon doesn’t have to be available in every game, and that’s okay. They could have ripped this band-aid off if they’d been honest about Dexit, but that’s not PR friendly.

It was, but that wasn’t developed by Game Freak (and also wasn’t action-based). There have been a number of non-Game-Freak games where there’s action and you directly control Pokemon (like Pokken and Pokemon Unite) but Game Freak’s games have always stuck pretty close to the traditional combat.

Not to defend the state of the game but this is DLC that was announced and started being sold way earlier in the year, it would have been much worse to not release DLC they already announced and sold. I very much hope there’ll be a performance patch, either with this DLC or later on, although it doesn’t seem very…

Oh that’s an interesting thought, probably not like a new generation but maybe another Legends game or something? Arceus was already a little more action based so maybe future ones could be even more action based? That would worry me if true, they’ve had enough trouble putting out turn based games recently, an action…

This sounds like a lot of fun if it’s available to all (or at least a lot) of Pokemon. It doesn’t say anything about only certain Pokemon being compatible but then it only shows Pikachu/pikaclones so I don’t know if you’ll be able to run around as a legendary or something. All Pokemon have walking animations so I feel…

Based on leaks, the 25 they showed in trailers are the only ones, or at least the only static encounters? I’d assume you’ll at least be able to get Calyrex since you can get Glastrier and Spectrier. That is quite a bit but far from “almost every” legendary from the previous gens.

I don’t have any specific expectations but I hope we get a KH4 trailer. Not a reasonable hope, but they gotta have news for it eventually. A Hades 2 trailer would also be nice.

“It’s legal” absolutely does not mean “it’s not creepy” and saying “it’s legal so it’s not creepy” is a super creepy mentality. “Post-pubescent” doesn’t mean “makes good judgement.”

The fuck is the point of a comment like this?

Its a single player game, and if you go after it playing all day for several weeks of course you are going to run out of things to do.
