  • Fun fact: the Pokemon living in the world of Pokemon Quest are called Pokéxel, possibly implying that this isn't a stylistised art design, and they are actually a seperate kind of Pokemon that just... look like that. Weird.

    It’s really interesting to see the Chinese versions of games, it’s like looking into an alternate reality. Though looking more into the Chinese version of Minecraft, it seems that Apocalypse Mode is actually from a mod that had a trailer made for it so English-speaking people thought it was official. From what I’ve seen it seems to be mostly similar to our Minecraft except free to play stuff.

    • @CannedWolfMeat
      @CannedWolfMeat  Місяць тому +28

      Interesting, I saw a lot of different places saying it was a legit feature of Minecraft China so I guess that's on me for not doing better research. I did also read up on a few of the other features like a marketplace for texture packs/game patches, and having ads you could watch for Diamonds/Emeralds (which I assume is like minecoins or some kind of premium currency and not actual in-game items), but I didn't want to dwell too long on it as a passing example.

    • @AnUsername
      @AnUsername Місяць тому +12

      @@CannedWolfMeat Can’t really blame you for not doing a ton of research on a passing mention, lol. I assume people just saw the pretty well made trailer for it, assumed it was official since they couldn’t understand it, and the idea that Minecraft in China has an exclusive dimension with it’s own bosses passes around far better than the fact than it just being a mod. TheMisterEpic has a video that seems to be a pretty good breakdown of it.

    5:22 as a teenager who has lived in china for 5 years, having to submit your id and face scan is in part due to chinese kids playing too much, so they passed a law for the “实名认证” system that basically checks if you are 18+ or not. iirc the rule for non 18+ people is that you can play for one hour on friday evening and on holidays. THATS IT. many people bypassed it by simply asking parents to do the submission, or just side loading a game available internationally via a vpn or knowing where to look. also the government is probably using the data for more but whatever

    I would absolutely love Quest to be updated again to add more pokemon, or at least for the art style to be reused in a new game (on the switch 2 perhaps?). It sucks that the potential for what this game could’ve become is locked behind a firewall and that Nintendo shelved it entirely so soon after releasing it, because even though gameplay-wise it’s very lacklustre, being an auto battler and all, it was still super fun to hop on for half an hour or so and play out a few runs in the hopes of finding a shiny or rare pokemon from a dish.

    I'm a big fan of pokemon and always tune up for nintendo directs and pokemon presents so how did i never hear about this game it looks like something id really love playing wth, also knowing that the Chinese version exists might have just ruined my experience with this game before i even tried it ouch

    I've downloaded and played this game 3 times, and I never managed to get past world 1 or however progress is made
    It's a game I feel like I would definitely invest time into..
    But just CAN'T and WON'T for some reason
