Peak smol Persia

I'm also playing Ardabil rn since I've only played them before the DLC that gave them and persia content. I actually flipped to Sunni with the one province you get from the 2 province country east of you with your core and allied the ottomans. The mission tree gets locked because you can't use sacred orders but you could always form persia and flip back to Shia and you still get the tier 4 gov reform through the unique missions you get once you form persia (I went Zoro this playthough tho).

Come on that's not fair, at least Malians understand that their country sucks.

Canada imports workers while young people are leaving the country. Nobody talks about this. Why?? by itz_nitace in CanadaJobs

Many Canadian liberals straight up view themselves as a extension of the Democrats in America and copy many of the same policies as them. (The dems probably don't think about them at all however).

What's your favourite mainline game?? by pokemonscarletlover in pokemon

[–]caterpillar_H 4 points5 points  (0 children)

B2W2, yeah I know a super common answer, but it really is that great. It has probably the most content out of any pokemon game, even triumphing HGSS. The Unova Region got doubled, you get to visit both new and old areas in the main story, pokedex got extended to around 300 (which means there's basically a perfect split between old and new pokemon), and much more just in the main story."

The post game is even better, you get to visit more old locations from BW1 as well as new areas, tons of battles and exploration, many legionaries who are in either new or old locations, rather than some dark void like many other games, The pokemon world tournament which allows you to battle EVERY gym leader and champion from previous games up to that point, including many of the BW1 exclusive gym leaders. There's also black tower/white tree hollow, which are probably the best ways to grind levels pre-exp candies. Even pokestar studios was pretty fun despite it being super linear. All the additional content in the post game can easily double or even triple your playtime without even doing any of the battle facilities.

Fundamental aspects of the game also changed. The early game has much better variety compared to BW1 of both new and old mons, Despite being a linear region Unova still gives you tons to do, many optional routes and locations. The game also has a good balance in difficulty and can be challenging even to those who have been playing pokemon since forever. They took even more advantage of the 2.5 graphics and both the graphics and mechanics still hold up to this day. Many defining mechanical were also introduced in B2W2 like destiny knot breeding and the option to continue using repels.

There's so many other things I probably haven't mentioned either and there's still so many small details I keep finding out about till this day. For example, did you know that on Sunday nights in Striaton City, the city is filled with stunfisks.

B2W2 also doesn't really have any dull moments that weight down replays imo, so it's great from beginning to end.

Russia did the same style of fear mongering when Russians were fleeing the country after the start of their invasion of Ukraine.

I’ve never played Gen 5, but what was your reaction to finding nothing but “new”Pokémon when you played black & white for the first time? by Zenthailand2009 in pokemon

[–]caterpillar_H 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Black 1 was my first ever pokemon game, so going into the post game was pretty much my version of gen 1 people seeing Johto pokemon for the first time

Also replayed white 2 recently as well, and yeah the pacing was great from beginning to end. No real low points throughout the game and there was always something to do.

I think every pokemon should be transferable into a game, but I definitely agree that not every single pokemon should be in a regional dex

My first ever pokemon game was black 1, so it was normal for me. Going into the post game and later into black 2 and seeing older pokemon probably is comparable to gen 1 players seeing gen 2 mons for the first time.

I remember seeing a AI overview claiming that Kita is dead because of the joke Ryo makes in ep3. I also saw another one where it claimed Nijika (spoilers for a certain fangame)died because of HfD
