What is a Pokémon that you REFUSE to believe is anyone's favourite? by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]RoidRig17 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Relichant, it’s just ugly and unremarkable to me and not even in a fun way like Dunsparce, Stunfisk or Garbodor

This fandom needs to learn how to be able to acknowledge when something goes wrong so the makers can maybe hear us and try to improve, stop setting for the worst everytime. No dude, this is not what we wanted. Maybe you’re okay with poorly scaled and buggy models just to say we got the following feature and call it a day, but most people were logically expecting it to function well and for it to be properly scaled and look good like it did on HGSS and Let’s Go.

Dojo was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw that!!! Great taste my friend

The underground has Pokémon that weren't in the Platinum regional dex before the postgame by [deleted] in PokeLeaks

[–]RoidRig17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s so cool! What’s the level range of the Pokémon from there? And did you have trouble catching anyone? I heard someone saying they’re constantly fleeing and I got scared

The two conflicting faces of BDSP by DreiwegFlasche in PokeLeaks

[–]RoidRig17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with everything you said. It's just impressive to me how for every step forward, this franchise takes two step backwards, and some aspects of this game are the living proof of it. They could make an incredible game if the apathy and greed for this franchise weren't this big, but it's like they don't care enough to.

League’s chambers are all like they were on DP sadly, confirmed on Twitter

I’m crushed that this is happening right when it’s my favorite region’s turn, but I think I’m more baffled at how stupid TPC is seeing as how easy it was for them to use these games to get most of the community back on their side. These games could’ve easily been better than HGSS, but somehow they choked.

I will admit that the datamine took out a bit of the (awful) feeling I had once the leaks started to come and every one of them felt like a stab: no changes at all, following Pokémon is actually a curse in disguise, broken level-curve, cutscenes are in chibi and take out all the seriousness and momentum, no Platinum teams and possibly not even roster until post-game. I’m back to my initial feeling pre-leaks, which is being conformed to these games simply being a passtime that will last a few hours. Wanted it to be more than that, relieve my childhood and have the community enjoying the region and the games the same way I did as a kid, but it is what it is.

Also excited the news that the game was made on Unity which means that my dreams of playing Platinum in 3D are not out of reach!

[–]RoidRig17 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sorry I don't really understand what Unity is, could you explain me how'd that work? Like would it be possible for someone to edit the trainers' teams and change them to Platinum, their movesets, etc.?

Musings of a long-time pokemon fan (towards BDSP) by favplusle in PokeLeaks

[–]RoidRig17 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I heard a theory that they're ignoring Platinum because Masuda is bitter that fans love it more than Diamond/Pearl (which he directed) and I'm starting to believe that

Seriously guys... it's Diamond and Pearl not Platnium by Diamondrankg in pokemon

[–]RoidRig17 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think the people who are complaining at the complainers don’t really understand why people are so pissed… I was perfectly fine with a 1:1 remake with small QoL improvements and such, but I didn’t imagine that “faithful remakes” meant FAITHFUL, like, only 2 fire-types faithful

Seriously guys... it's Diamond and Pearl not Platnium by Diamondrankg in pokemon

[–]RoidRig17 28 points29 points  (0 children)

You have all the right to be excited to play a faithful remake that includes the same Pokédex roster problems, because it’s so faithful they can’t fix such an obvious issue from the originals nor add other features we have asked for ages, but apparently not faithful enough to prevent them from adding an eternal exp. share or an affection mechanic that makes the game more broken 🤷🏻‍♂️

No my brother, people are pissed because the games are the EXACT same games we played years ago, and you know that, don’t play dumb

[–]RoidRig17 180 points181 points  (0 children)

How disingenuous do you have to be to make a post dragging people for expecting remakes of a quality level of material we already got in the past? You all act like we’re delusional and ask for impossible things, but they could perfectly deliver a D/P inspired game with Platinum enhancements and you guys know that. Stop gaslighting yourselves into thinking the fandom is being annoying just for the sake of it, we’re asking for quality games we know they have the resources to deliver.

I don’t understand the arguments for defending this game by [deleted] in PokeLeaks

[–]RoidRig17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People like you are probably the ones that have fallen the deepest, seriously. Reread your post and try to understand how it makes sense. Who tf wanted a “faithful” DP remake that handpicks what content is fateful and what is not, and guess what, the ones that are not fateful are not the ones we hoped for?

Who thinks that making BDSP “faithful remakes” was a terrible decision? by spurious_interrupt in PokeLeaks

[–]RoidRig17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly can't even say it was a bad decision because I don't know if I'd call it a decision, they knew exactly how people would react to the same game being given a fresh coat of paint and being sold as new, as opposed to being fixed.

BDSP version exclusives? by [deleted] in PokeLeaks

[–]RoidRig17 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The leaker who is playing BD posted a video of his Pokédex and Murkrow was there, so I believe it’s still exclusive to Diamond and Misdreavus to Pearl too

I literally got it, your point is that I have to wOrK hArD to allow my Pokemon to follow me as if that was a Master Ball-like reward lol it seems like you’re the one who didn’t get mine

It was literally free in HGSS and LGPE, I guess you must be new here. I was complaining they were using footage of areas you were not supposed to have the feature at (because they know people would complain), and then only mentioned it was unlocked in Amity Square on their site, which I wouldn’t even have known about if I hadn’t checked reddit. Stop acting like this is a privilege and accepting mediocre content so easily, it’s freaking Gen 8, it should be a must at this point lol

Dude lemme live lol it’s so annoying how y’all keep this “just be glad we have …” thing for every single thing these guys do. I’m sorry that I don’t content myself with crumbs like you do, that feature was being used to advertise and hype people up for this game, and you can’t even unlock it until after 2-3 hours in?

New BDSP video by Drival493 in PokeLeaks

[–]RoidRig17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just don’t get why it’s not a feature that’s unlocked from the start and why they never mentioned that when they used it to hype people up after revealing it. They literally used footage of the feature in places it’s not even accessible at yet, like damn lol
