      It just goes to show GameFreak is one of the laziest companies, and only now are are majority starting to realize it. I first noticed when they neglected to add the Battle Frontier to ORAS, with their excuse being that kids these days don't have a long attention span iirc. That being said, Pokemon will continue to sell and SWSH will most likely be one of the highest selling Switch games.

      @@GroovyPancake AND the fact there was no pokemon Z. Kalos had so much more to offer, specially with the ghost girl and the fact the xy and Z anime exists, which is the best pokemon anime in my opinion. I think if diamond and Pearl remakes don't happen after sword and shield (which according to the pattern I think there going for is the next one) that will be the deciding factor to me.

      @Orange Icecream pancakes if we don’t get DPP remakes after sword and shield there will be much rage. I do disagree about the XYZ anime being the best (maybe because I’m older now and I only enjoy the older anime because it’s nostalgic. Tbh I quit enjoying the anime when black and white came out) but everyone is entitled to their own opinion so eh

    • @akiichann_8147
      @akiichann_8147 5 років тому +26

      Also yes Pokemon Z should’ve been a thing. There were so many loose ends and unanswered questions in XY. You have the other power plants in the badlands, the mysterious ghost girl in the hotel and that one random building that didn’t really serve any purpose, plus there was the completely unused train station in couriway town and so so much more. It just felt like there was so much potential that they just ignored (I know it gets a lot of hate but I personally really enjoyed gen 6, I though the art was more aesthetically pleasing than any of the new stuff and I wish they would go back to it. It had almost a watercolor look to it)

    @CamilaCuevas 5 років тому +1768

    Gawd damn the animatiom bit with your rival, perfectly describes my problem with this game.
    The thing that'll definitely keep me from buying this game is the HUGE tone down in difficulty.
    I wouldn't have mind it if Nintendo made it clear they were aiming for a younger audience gameplay-wise. But they're clearly trying to appeal to the 90s generation by making commercials that mimic the OG pokemon intro, including characters like Red and just making the game in the Kanto region.
    I'm not gonna lie, I wanted to get it because of that sweet commercial and because you could also fight Red in the game (who usually whipes you out like it' nothing and have to actually think of an strategy to even think of fighting him) but when I went to see a gameplay of that battle I was so disappointed to see how easy and unfair it was.
    If your Eevee had 5 hp left and Red attacked you with a magnitude 10, your eevee will survive "cuz i LovE u tRaiNeR sEnPaI". It basically gives all your pokemon a free focus band and extra critical chances just because you feed it once in a while.
    And I know pokemon isn't exactly a "difficult" game to play. All you do is farm up your pokemon for 400 hours to lvl 100 and one-shot everything. But if you legitimately wanted to have a better and more thrilling experience in the game you could *choose to do it* by maybe farming up a bit to lvl 60 something and have genuine strategy-based battles that are way more fun than this garbage.
    Tl;dr If nintendo wants to make a pokemon game for kids, it's ok, hell I may even buy it just to have a good time and enjoy the game for what it is. But don't bait me making me think it's gonna be anything like Pokemon Red. Where I felt I could at least die if I messed up my moveset or underestimated my enemy.

      Let's Go... Let's Go is a weird beast. If you play Eevee, go for dex completion (why wouldn't you) and fight the bonus Eevee Candy trainers it's stupid easy. My cousin was playing Pikachu, wanted an alolan Exeggutor as his sixth, and kept rotating members for evolutions and was mostly fine. The moment that you forgo the Candy mechanic though... Fights get a bit tougher as most boss fights were given bonus HP to compensate for you having attack candies...
      And can we talk about moves? FRLG didn't have this problem too much, mostly just because Whirlwind and Roar weren't pointless moves (why did Champion Blue's Pidgeot still have Sand attack though?) In opposition Trace has 3 moves on his pokemon, but at least they're all consistently useful. Once again Pidgeot as an example, it has Air Slash, Heat Wave, and Quick Attack, all pretty decent for a Mega Pidgeot. But it goes to show that they just replace bad moveset choices with no moveset choices (Sabrina's Alakazam only has 2 moves Psychic and Night Shade. I mean STAB Psychic on Alakazam is pretty good, but why not give Dazzling Gleam to deal with Dark types? The only Idea is that they intentionally wanted Nightshade so that Alolan Rat can be useful. Nightshade isn't Mudslap Espeon bad, but it's... just weird.)

They want to appeal to the original Red and Blue players while dumbing down the difficulty of the games while telling maturer stories much subtler themes while relying on the overdone nostalgia of Kanto to sell copies because they don't have confidence in the region to have its own identity.
      LGPE could've included all 809 pokemon, but they only allowed Gen 1 pokemon because of nostalgia. The multiverse thing exists, so why didn't we get one with pokemon from all current generations? All of the other regions have contact with one another, because we know there are pictures of landmarks from Hoenn, Johto, and Sinnoh in Silph Co.
      Hoenn got the Kalos treatment; Johto got the Sinnoh treatment; and FRLG did go the same route as Let's Go, but they actually allowed Johto and Hoenn pokemon in the post-game.
      It's almost like regional dex's were a theme for this generation, most of them being done poorly; mostly because there was literally no National dex's this generation or they only allowed for region-exclusive pokemon use.
      Gen 5 has got to be the best and most recent example of a region having its own unique identity while slightly homaging to past generations and, in B2W2's case, being able to mix in older pokemon without such heavy-handed preferences. Gen 6 and 7 had a problem with preferences to other regions pokemon to varying degrees.
      Kalos basically every older pokemon in its dex with the Unovan and Kantoian pokemon, especially the Kanto s higher on the encounter rates and then 5% encounters on their pokemon from their own region. Alola had the same problem, but with a regional dex of 300, it was less noticeable until you got to pokemon from the later dex, which also did the 5% encounter rates with pokemon like Mareanie and Mimikyu (Mimikyu is very worth it, though); USUM kinda fixed this, but a regional dex of 400 did make things more noticeable.
      I think that the multiverse theory is cool, but at this point, it's just an excuse for sloppy writing. Zelda suffers the same crap: a split-multiverse timeline so they can write anything and it'll stick.
      Does Game Freak really expect that older pokemon players want to come back to an overly-convoluted franchise that went from being come-of-age-stories about kids going simple magical adventures to multi-universal hijinks involving animal bioenergy that can warp reality, alien "pokemon" that can are and can travel across multiple dimensions (still the coolest thing to be introduced thus far in the Mega timeline), and sloppy writing decisions. I really doesn't feel like your choices have weight anymore.
      tl;dr
      Pokemon is a hulking behemoth in the game industry. They need to up the quality of their games because we as fans don't pay for games with hugs and kisses. WE PAY WITH 50-60 bucks of cold, hard cash.
      They need to stop the nostalgia moments where every single gosh-darn character essentially ends up saying: "Hey, remember when these games were better back in Red and Blue, I know I do!". And the newer regions barely get any unique identity, besides Unova, because each newer generation has to have references to an older generation. (i.e. Unknown Dungeon in Kalos and Malie Garden - Nugget Bridge event in Alola)
      There's a heavy-handedness in most of the recent dex's to push all newer pokemon in the later dex down to 5% encounters and an over-abundance of pokemon from different regions taking the spotlight. In Gen 7, SuMo repeated this exact thing. USUM kinda fixed this it still exists. (Don't get me started on how to get Razor Fangs.)
      The multiverse was cool until Game Freak showed us, through their actions and decisions, that they want to use that to retcon everything until the series potential has been milked dry. The story elements are inconstant and messy now, potentially pushing away older fans and newer fans who were hoping for a simple story.

    I agree with this alot. I feel like this game isn't particularly lazy, rather it focuses too much on nostalgia for its enjoyment. which was okay for me because I really liked seeing pokemon roam the overworld, and feel if they keep ANYTHING from this, please let it be that.
    The game is stupid easy, but ive been shiny hunting and getting so much out of it for that, since the make shiny chaining avaiable from the first encounter. I feelt im getting my moneys worth with that. Many will think its not, and thats cool, it just makes up for the price with me.
    Honestly, I'm still holding out to see where gen 8 goes before I make any final calls on if I still wanna play pokemon games or not. The last few have been super easy and aiming for gimicks rather than building on deeper mechanics previously intoduced. I hope that this game was there "simple game" and they go all out with gen 8. Not holding my breathe, but pokemon has gon through so many wierd slopes over the years that dont make sense til in retrospect. I hope they at teh very least add more options for the VAST MAJORITY of their fans being older and still enjoying pokemon. Nothing specific, just keep us in mind please?

    I know we have games like Smash, Zelda and Mario Odyssey that are totally worth the money, but I wish Nintendo wouldn't be afraid to sell games for $30-$40 when they need to. I think they'd genuinely sell more copies *and* people wouldn't feel like they're being cheated.

    You forgot about how coop mode is poorly designed and implemented. When you get into actual double battles, the game doesn't allow the second player to play with you, but when it's a solo trainer battle, the second player is always able to battle.
    For example:
    ~ You battle Jessie and James, and actual double battle, and the second player disappears. It's a 2 vs 2 battle, but the second player can't participate.
    ~ You battle Giovanni right after beating Jessie and James and you can battle him with a second player, turning it into a 2 vs 1.

    Honestly, considering how the let’s go games were supposed to relate to Pokémon go I would’ve loved to see them implement the research tasks in some way instead of just having your rival hand you everything. Professor needs x many of this Pokémon? Optional quest that can give you some extra poke balls. Professor wants you to gather data on x type Pokémon? Side quest for extra party exp. Little optional things for extra goodies leading to larger research quests that give you the opportunity to encounter rare Pokémon. Something more to do for those people that don’t want to just mindlessly progress. I’m sure many people will disagree, but I personally love little side distractions and I’m sure there’s a good way to include them with meaningful incentive past what I only briefly mentioned. The let’s go games seem very devoid of content. Also a word on the animations, go look at Pokémon coliseum. That game was fantastic for its time.

    Finally someone with a more nuanced opinion about this game. I usually only get to hear "THIS GAME IS THE WORST GAME EVER" or "This game is so fun OMG y'all are just haters". I won't buy this game even though I'm a big Pokemon fan. The quality just doesn't look like to hold up to the price. Pokemon Sun&Moon, for example, were brand new games with a new region, new Pokemon and new mechanics, and the game's price was around $45. Pokemon Let's Go looks like a 3DS game on a HD emulator and is just another reboot of Kanto, with just a tiny ammount of new content and it costs around $60. I'll gladly give it a pass, even though i acknowledge it can definitely be fun and a nice time consumer, if you really don't have other better games to play. But I personally have so many games on my Backlog and on my Wishlist that are much greater games then Let's Go and a lot of them are even cheaper.

      yeah that's why I'll probably wait til a pre-owned one pops up in Game. It's like £2 cheaper in Argos but £42 is still too much for me tbh.

      Ok, but they want to maximize their market share. Better to have several kinds of games to reach as broad an audience as possible. Better to hit casual gamers, young or new gamers, mobile game enthusiasts, as well as nostalgia-fueled veterans. People act like Game Freak is out of touch--folks, they've built an empire. They want to get *new* six year olds hooked, so that *they* will be arguing about new Pokemon releases twenty to thirty years from now.

    Im fine with them taking out some of the extra stuff like abilities, but i dislike people saying saying its to make bridging the gap easier. If you dont know what youre doing, you'll either learn, or do your own thing. getting rid of the choice doesnt make it easier. Yeah not knowing a physical pokemon's nature is making it objectively worse puts you at a disadvantage, unless the game explains it, most people wouldnt know, and its not enough to stop your progress completely.
    when i was younger I played though pokemon pearl and soul silver without ever looking at abilities much, never knowing natures mattered, never knowing ev's and pokerus existed, and never using status moves or buff (because i thought they were lame..i mean.. come on, you arent hitting things).
    When i learned about those things later i admit its still a bit much for me to care about (mainly ev's) knowing or not knowing never affected my ability to play the game, which is the most important thing
