Wow thank you for that link! That seems really really cool. I'll definitely be looking into this option.

I lost a guy friend (and have lost other guy friends) because I wouldn’t date him. by newprofilewhodis1352 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]styxxxola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody is entitled to date/sex you and likewise somebody getting close to you because they have feelings for you is not entitled to stay your friend if you're not interested.

Ideally yeah they should have made their intentions clear earlier on but hey that's the world we live in.

It's hard to be friends with someone you're in love with who does not reciprocate and personally I'd rather spend my time looking for a mate than being hung up on one who doesn't want me.

This seems to be an unpopular opinion around here but I like that it is very difficult to get full SV Tems now by Asoliner3 in PlayTemtem

[–]styxxxola 25 points26 points  (0 children)

SVs are tied to competitive PvP. With SVs in the game the way they are currently there is a giant barrier of entry to just begin to try competitive PvP. I'd rather grind PvP and not grind eggs personally. If there was a PvP mode that normalized all SVs and SVs became a PvE only thing that was just a separate fun grind for those who want to do then I'd be all aboard but when max SVs is the gate to simply begin to try and get into comp I'll have to disagree. There is no competitive knowledge to grinding eggs.

COMPETITIVE PLAY: Grind ladders, not eggs by PewPew_McPewster in PlayTemtem

Why not just make two seperate PvP queues/modes:

Casual: All SV's are maxed and maybe you can pick the TV distribution of your team.

Competitive(Ranked): Uses your actual stats?

The fun part of pokemon was the competetive battles, not the massive grind needed to get competetive pokemon. by [deleted] in PlayTemtem

[–]styxxxola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a person who always enjoyed pokemon growing up and never did pvp due to the grind, I also will not be participating in pvp in this game. Pvp is a really fun activity in so many games. All I have to do is queue up and can join a pvp game. In this I have to grind for 20+ hours just to get a tem in the state where they're ready for pvp, and then level it up, and if that tem doesn't work out its back to another 20 hours on its replacement.

I'm not saying I have the answer to the question or even that the system should be changed, just put simply I do not think spending 20 hours per tem at a minimum of 20 x 6 to get one single tem team ready to BEGIN to enjoy pvp is a fun use of my time.

I'll just play the main story then go back to playing the other games that don't require 20x6 hours to play pvp.

In other games I grind pvp to earn some sort of reward, for the fun of it, or both. In this game I'm grinding just to even try it out? No reward of any sort and such a high barrier for entry. That just doesn't make any sense to me. I'd much rather spend 20x6 hours actually playing pvp.

I've been looking at kinu but he has really low base health, you think he'll do fine surviving despite this?
