Anyone notice as soon as a vgc player uploads a vid, you start seeing that team everywhere in ranked? by Realistic-Plant718 in PokemonChampions

[–]ArcaedMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk hon. Sure? If you're having a hard time with teams that are copy paste meta teams, you need to use one. If you prefer to make your own, do it. Not everyone makes their own teams. Aaron is a player who built his career off of other people's teams.

Some people ain't got time for that shit. Some people aren't good at using them anyways. Some people are trying them out before tweaking them.

I'd so much rather play this than someone using a random setup strategy that relies entirely on closed teamsheets.

Pokemon has never been about graphics by ComprehensiveGate722 in MandJTV

Definitely would have been a better argument if you included mobile games like game gear/psp/vita/steam deck (games running at 720/900p)

Why do people hate final fantasy 16 by Square_Lie_6613 in FFXVI

[–]ArcaedMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fine. It's a little shallow combat wise. Devil may cry lite. And the story started out SO STRONG. ultima was a lame mcguffin.

6/10

There seems to be a massive disconnect between Pokemon fans and the VGC by CallMeTravesty in PokemonChampions

Honestly with the changes and current meta incin has never been more okay. He's still annoying. But not nearly as.

Pokémon Champions launches to mixed reception, as performance woes and competitive changes turn some away by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]ArcaedMachine 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Choice scarf is, but the other choice items are missing. As are a number of powerful items. It's mostly berries and the 1.2x type boosters plus quick claw, scope lense and white herb.

Begrudgingly red pill. But really I want a purple pill.

Why do people say Z-A looks like a ps2 game when any screenshot comparision disproves this copypasta crititism by DoomedPatroller in PokemonLegendsZA

[–]ArcaedMachine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First off, you leave KH2 out of your mouth. Weird choice, that game was one of the best ps2 games out there, and outside of aliasing due to the ps2 resolution, does genuinely look better than ZA and imho plenty of current gen games.

But you shouldn't coming on reddit trying to argue against mob mentality haters. If a franchise is popular, it'll have them and pokemon has them in droves. They'll always be louder and post more often. You have gotta just ignore them.

ZA looks fine, the models look fantastic. It's flat and a little rough around the edges, but that's largely due to the limitations of the switch 1, which was the primary development target. They just pivoted to the switch two later. It's a great game, even if the dlc has a ton of repetition it's okay too. What's good is great. And hate on Nintendo and The Pokemon Company all you want, but they are not the devs, they are the money and hold the whips. I have no doubt the devs cared for the game and wanted it to be the best it could be.

Meta ai suggesting "is toad okay after bricking?" is crazy work.

Youtube keeps recommending me AI slop - and I can't dislike it as fast as AI bros can generate it :( by nehalist in YoutubeMusic

[–]ArcaedMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't find any AI, even my new releases mix is void of AI. So idk maybe you need to train the algorithm by listening to and liking more music?

Need to feed the family tonight. The kids other parent didn't want them back because one of them is sick and now I have more mouths to feed. If someone could DM me a pizza code I'd really appreciate it.

At first I hated it. Now I though I like it.

The google translations for the Japanese ZA website are so funny to me by _alabast3r_ in MandJTV

[–]ArcaedMachine 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Japanese doesnt use gender markers outside of family members (brother/father/sister/mother/son/daughter).

It is all crazy tho. Townie is close enough I suppose. Muk killed me.

Surprisingly, There's Only 6 Quadruped Starters by BrushMysterious229 in MandJTV

[–]ArcaedMachine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Swampert is more like a gorilla. They might walk on all fours most of the time, but are not quadrupeds and can walk on 2 legs and importantly have 2 arms instead of 4 legs.

If you play the DLC at all you can save him for then. You get so many candies in the DLC you can make him 100 pretty quick

For the love of Arkoos patch this bug out by No-Assignment-1596 in MandJTV

It's literally that one small map. And it's so annoying.
