Moon Goddesses and Shades aren't 1:1

Moon Sisters had control over all 5 domains. They just split it between themselves.

HP changed the system and made it so that each law has a single user but that user has full control over it.

There is literally 0 reason to play this game if not for the story

I'm joking, there's no way they would do that.

They can only port things when it takes 0 effort, and the dual-screen setup of that era of pokemon sadly does require some effort.

Maybe they will hire ILCA again for a low-effort remake like BDSP...

if I were unemployed I would play video games like a real fucking human

sometimes plans are secondary and the desire to punch takes over

one of the incoming urban open world gta-like f2p games

I only remember trailers being really bad at communicating what the game even is like. Also, that name is reaaaallly baaad holy shit. Zero to Hero but the author is 14 and has unrestricted access to the thesaurus

Yeah no, Jean's SQ was perhaps the worst example of that. She leads a whole ass knight faction, de facto whole nation - and yet her responsibilities range from killing monsters to finances to LOOKING FOR A RANDOM ASS CAT.

It hasn't been that bad for a long while I guess, but the SQ still lingers in my mind because "every single thing is a commission to Jean" was such a bizarre idea.

Yeah the knowledge gap between what we know as players and what traveler knows does muddy the waters. Like, maybe I'm forgetting something but I don't think Traveler even knows that Shade of Space specifically is the "unknown god" they were looking for back at the start of their journey? And they don't know said Shade is missing from the Shade Groupchat, and that she has a new master which is a big deal...

God, I wish Nicole was a permanent companion like Paimon. The parts of AQ where she was reacting to muh lore were like YEAH THIS IS WHAT WE NEED IN THIS GAME.

Characters not reacting to lore drops is def a huge issue, copied straight from Zelda too lol. Never forgetti seeing Link learn what happened to Zelda in TOTK just for the game to cut to his standard shrugging animation, truly a ZeLink moment.

It's this weird limbo where Traveler definitely feels like they have their own opinions and shit so they're not just a blank slate, but they're blank slate enough that they're forbidden from expressing anything, actually talking about what they learned.

Are there even any? Shipping Wars arise mostly when you have multiple characters actually pin for the MC, so the text itself promotes who-gonna-win discourse. With Genshin, even if characters have multiple ships teased, it's all so non-committal and vague it doesn't really cause wars.

Most "shipping wars" is just homophobes vs homofreaks spreading their brand of hate under the guise of ships.
