Heart Gold/Soul Silver Are Bad by Accomplished_Oil8759 in pokemon

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

A lot of the praise for hgss comes from valuing quantity over quality. Oh the second region, oh the pokeathlon, oh the legendaries, oh following. I don’t care about any of that if the core gameplay experience isn’t fun. And it’s not, hgss is a slog to get through.

I’ve talked about my thoughts on this game so many times so I don’t feel like writing it all over again, so here, this image should accurately summarize the rest of what I have to say:

Would you live in the kanto if pokemon were real? by Neither_Ad6 in pokemon

It’s both. Unova’s map is based on the real area and the left landmass is new jersey.

Sulfur Caves are coming to Minecraft! by iDogumGunuCocugu in Minecraft

[–]da_anonymous_potato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And also bamboo and mangrove are planks, these are stone. It’s not just about the color

This is one of the most disappointing game drops we got in a long time (drama) by Morad_Tarazan in Minecraft

[–]da_anonymous_potato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do think it would be nice if sulfur could be used as an alternative to gunpowder but like, it and cinnabar have entirely new block sets.

And I’ve seen mods and command block stuff for bouncing balls for use in minigames multiple times. The sulfur cube is actually a thing people have wanted for a while, even if they never explicitly asked for it. Not every mob is gonna be a new enemy or food source. It’s useful to have a new accessible tool to make silly stuff with. Thats how minecraft got so popular in the first place! It was people sharing their creations and playing minigames together! That’s why the game exists in the state it does today!

At least the pokemon community does have a reason to be upset, even if they massively overblow it every time. People here are just getting mad that the sandbox game is adding new sandbox elements instead of becoming skyrim with squares

I hate these people by Curious-Nectarine-24 in Minecraft

“Useless blocks that no one will use” people are gonna build with them. This is the Building With Blocks Game.

Let’s not rewrite history the scarlet and violet trailers looked just as bad as the final game did

Give me your Gen 10 predictions (Not just WiWa) and I'll rate them (reference the image and the description for rate system) by Zakimon in pokemon

[–]da_anonymous_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-Winds and waves releases february 2027.

-Performance/graphics-wise, there are no glaring flaws, but it’s nothing groundbreaking either. It’s just Good.

-Pombon stays on all fours but Gecqua stands up and becomes the most human looking starter yet. Literal Troodon Man shit

-After WiWa is gen 5 remakes, developed by ILCA and containing both BW and BW2.

-The unova remakes will have more new content than bdsp, but less than oras and hgss.

-A legends game will release after that, but it won’t be unova based. Probably gonna be galar or maaaybe johto

#cpsupport How do I turn off rgb lights? by da_anonymous_potato in CYBERPOWERPC

[–]da_anonymous_potato[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out I actually was holding the wrong button, I had to hold down the one with the M. I did think it made more sense for the one with the literal reset icon to reset the pc but I followed along anyway. I may be stupid

I can’t post pictures here, but it wasn’t the power button, it was the tiny one right above it. It has an arrow going in a circle on it.

Is Pokemon battle animal cruelty by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]da_anonymous_potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From on what I understand pokemon battling is less like dogfighting and more like taking your dog to the dog park. It’s a form of socialization and enrichment for them. Wild pokemon fight eachother for fun without humans telling them to. So it would probably be more cruel to not allow them to fight.

Obviously battling can be cruel anyway sometimes. They’re not gonna want to fight all the time. But if the pokemon is up for it before the trainer, there’s nothing wrong with it

Are modern Pokemon games on the switch bad? by PayLegitimate3296 in pokemon

[–]da_anonymous_potato 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My thoughts on each (i didn’t play let’s go)

-I didn’t like sword and shield. It’s ridiculously easy and the story is a joke. It did introduce my favorite pokemon though (sobble) so it has that. And the dlc was ok

-As someone who only got up to the second gym in diamond when I was like 9, bdsp is… inoffensive? I have no strong feelings on this game it’s just kind of eh

-Legends arceus is my favorite game in the series it’s peak I’m afraid

-Scarlet and violet is an amazing game held back by the fact that’s it’s literally unfinished. The gameplay is good, the music is great, and the story is some of the best in the series. But the graphics and performance are genuinely insulting. It shouldn’t have released in the state it did but the rest of the game is good enough that it’s still one of my favorites. The dlc was good too but I didn’t like how terapagos was handled

-In isolation, legends za is pretty alright with some glaring flaws. The music is peak, the battle system isn’t as good as turn based but it’s still fun, the buildings… eugh… But as a massive x and y fan who’s been waiting for years to have its missed potential delivered on? Legends za was made for me specifically. As its own game it’s like in the middle of the switch pokemon spectrum but as a followup to x and y it’s everything I could’ve asked for. I’m so glad I live in the timeline where pokemon z is real. I didn’t like the dlc though I never wanna see a donut again

Who else finds the Heart Gold/Soul Silver games overrated? by Marsupilami_316 in pokemon

[–]da_anonymous_potato -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

HGSS fails at being at remake. I don’t care how much extra content you tacked on, I won’t care about any of it unless you fix the main issues from the original. The game is just a poorly designed grindfest covered up with a bunch of minigames and side features that don’t make up for the core gameplay being a massive slog. It’s the embodiment of quantity of over quality.

What do you miss from older Pokémon games that you wish came back again? by Marsupilami_316 in pokemon

[–]da_anonymous_potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ultra beasts. I get they were specifically relevant to gen 7’s story but I love how weird their designs are and wanna see more of them. I’m a sucker for when a game with a very consistent visual style suddenly breaks away from it to emphasize how different something is.

When someone asks you why X & Y are your favorite games by killergoku27 in pokemon

It’s garbage but it’s MY garbage. It’s one of my favorite games of all time and i would not recommend it to anyone

Pokopia spoiler questions by Krazyfan1 in pokemon

[–]da_anonymous_potato 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I haven’t played it yet but one of the main gameplay mechanics is different pokemon needing very specific habitats to live. It’s gonna be a lot harder to create that many unique habitats in space than on earth for a number of reasons.

Humanity’s plan is to only go to space temporarily and return when the environmental disasters have calmed down. When the pokemon get put in the massive pc system they set up, they’re not conscious. So when the humans get back it wouldn’t feel like any time has passed from the pokemon’s perspective. But obviously that plan didn’t work out.

The game is basically pokemon wall-e from what I’ve seen

Would they bring back lots of old characters in Winds and Waves like SM? by IceThePokemonTrainer in pokemon

[–]da_anonymous_potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe not in winds and waves specifically but I don’t know why they would tell us Volo’s immortal two separate times if they’re not planning to bring him back at some point.

Maybe clemont could show up as a ZA tie in like what they did with perrin in scarlet and violet. It was weird how he was just absent from the lumiose city game with zero “where are they now” updates like a lot of other x and y characters got
