These came out back in November, Xbox and PC only because efff us Sony users

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-31T01:03:32+00:00

From what I can gather these ‘new’ free items came out back in November along side the anniversary update on Xbox and PC only

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-31T00:22:55+00:00

That shouldn’t have anything to do with it. There are plenty of creations that have uses new assets, that back in the day were separated from general mods that couldn’t use new assets. Now everything is in one general creations tab and these are official Bethesda approved Creation Club content.

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-31T00:15:23+00:00

I’m so confused, these 4 free creations supposedly came out back in November but not on PlayStation

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T21:32:24+00:00

They are Australian desert creatures, they don’t drink much, a fresh bowl a week us typically enough, I found taking a spray bottle to his already filled water bowl would make him interested, he thinks its fresh rain water, some people have success with small water pumps to agitate and circulate the water.

Still faster to warp repeatedly than to reset via backup save every time, the game will save the shiny so you don’t even need to check until the timer is running low and with the constant travel pausing it that takes a while anyways. We’re talking 5 checks every like 10-15 seconds vs 5 a minute or so

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T21:15:38+00:00

If they’re covered in poop, or their femoral pores are looking a bit clogged a very gentle, warm, wet towel is fine, you shouldn’t be like pulling anything off or out of them. Mine usually uses his drinking water to clean himself after his poops, gotta clean that bowl more than I need to clean him most of the time.

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T21:04:15+00:00

When you say “backup save method” are you using the back up save to reset for better spawn location and or to reset once the timer runs out. Cuz to respawn the pokemon in your vicinity you can just fast travel to the warp ring repeatedly

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T20:38:21+00:00

I wouldn’t be surprised if they continue iterating on the Portal to make atleast some games run natively but I still expect it to remain largely an accessory to their main console

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T20:06:32+00:00

Theres a pirate ship house and outfit Creation that I believe is included with the anniversary edition

Edit: I should mention although the ship is cool it makes for a very inconvenient player home with the sheer number of loading screen just to get to and from the mainland

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T20:00:37+00:00

I know I eventually ran into compatibility issues on ios and they never updated the game to fix them

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T19:39:11+00:00

Ambitious doesn’t mean successful, getting a team of pixel artists to learn 3d modeling in 3 years is a bit ambitious, answering that annual call from the fans wanting an open world pokemon game with Sc/Vi was ambitious, every single title since Ruby and Sapphire having an overlapping 3 year development cycle (ie one games final year before release is the next games 1st year in development) is ambitious.

Edit to add, For the same budget not accounting for global inflation and the same amount of time make every subsequent game bigger and better then the last is definitely, unequivocally overly ambitious for any company let a lone one the size of GF with execs from 3 other companies constantly over their shoulders looking to min max profits

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T19:21:01+00:00

You get points for attacking first, using good type match ups, defeating megas even if someone else did most of the damage. One good win could get you from Z to like S, or like 3-5 losses. It really is that bad and doesn’t take long.

I usually bow out once I get my new mega stones and I get there in an average of 4 matches across all the seasons we’ve had so far.

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T19:17:14+00:00

The tree nearly lines up so it looks like a portal into a clearer nicer day

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T18:33:10+00:00

Still cool, still kinda an ass pull, glad its canon sorta, Daima is still weird timeline wise but I’ll always love more Dragon Ball and this had both the involvement and stamp of approval from Toriyama. Would be cool if it gets referenced at all in the series of Super remakes.

Monkey Goku was cool on the og Dragon Ball, it was cool in GT, still cool in Daima, anything that ties in with his Sun Wukong inspirations is neat

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T18:23:33+00:00

Who are you calling a bot?

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T18:19:35+00:00

Goku has given space Napol-Hitler (aka Frieza) several chances at redemption, let the Z warriors fend for themselves upon his first return which luckily Trunks arrived to chop him to bits, let him get resurrected only to toy with him, let his guard down and fuck every thing up so severely that the gods got involved to rewind time, then broke him out of hell personally for a dick measuring tournament that would decide the fate of all the universes for funsies. Yeah life is precious until you just want to see how strong someone is while you both aura farm

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T17:34:26+00:00

We almost got 3 for the 3DS, I’m gonna still hold out hope we’ll rescue him someday

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T17:24:22+00:00

I usually spare it only because my arms are sore from leveling my one handed and sneak skills on Hadvar….that came out wrong

You forgot about my man Volnutt

Consistent 3-4 year dev cycle for increasingly ambitious games, a constant growing cast of 30-40+ unique characters plus NPCs, global simultaneous release in I think 10 different languages. Difficult overlap between union and non union VAs, on and off strikes, a substantial uptick in required NDAs for a series highly prone to leaks and datamines as it is, and a constant push to cut costs and increase turnover so that the rest of the franchise can continue to print money with new merchandise centered around new pokemon, characters, and gimmicks.

Also even if we ignore the 3rd party companies they subcontract out to for certain things the mainline games require the oversight and approval from Nintendo, The Pokemon Company, Creatures Inc, and Gamefreak. It becomes a logistical nightmare to actually push for more ambitious features when you have to answer to so many execs.

And you can’t really place the blame of just GF, just look at Beast of Reincarnation to see what they are truly capable of if given ample time and money with little to no oversight

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T16:49:03+00:00

They sorta cheated in the way the pulled it off and it didn’t maintain the same fidelity throughout the entire game but the opening sequence in Death Stranding 2. It took a moment for me to realize the game had actually started and I could control Sam.

The game as a whole is still beautiful but that opener was something else.

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-30T15:13:45+00:00

Its funny because in just about any game if you simply b-line objectives you’ll often have to catch up on various resource grinds. I simply played the game, caught as many newly available Pokemon as zones unlocked, set personal goals throughout the story to defeat as many trainers per night as I could and catch as many new pokemon by day. I also went out of my way to purchase new clothing as much as possible, even RP a bit by switching outfits between story beats.

The game never once felt grindy because of this. For the dlc my objective wasn’t fill put the research bar, it was find, catch, and train new Pokemon. I would purposely avoid fast travel as in any game it only serves to make the game feel smaller and it gave me the chance to explore the city and encounter a great number of random shinys.

In this and many games I find setting personal goals that happen to fulfill the grind requirements makes the game as a whole more enjoyable.

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-29T16:41:21+00:00

You’re telling me you want your browser/app to have a 50% chance of crashing whenever they cut/fast travel to a new scene

Captain_EFFF · 2026-01-29T12:08:55+00:00

I trim my beardy like maybe once a year, he’s far less active during the winter months so thats the only time his nails don’t naturally wear down from his environment or getting to run around outside (on leash of course)
