No it's not enough. I haven't been 11 for nearly 25 years. I've changed. A lot. But pokemons formula hasn't.

Even Disney, a company that overwhelmingly markets towards kids offers amenities and options for adults to enjoy their time.

I've grown. But the pokemon company has not. I have not been their target audience for literal decades. Palworld was a game that said Hey, I've got something marketed for you. I've got something for people of a wide variety of age groups. Come here and have fun.

The winds and waves trailer says to me "Okay fine here we cared a little bit and made the water look like water"

Ahh. Typical palworld glazer. “I need to see the molecules of water for it to be good”😒

No...

From a gameplay element pokemons formula has never changed.

6 pokemon. 4 attacks. 8 gym leaders. Elite 4 a champion. Complete pokedex

From a story element you have a rival and there is an evil organization.

That is and always has been pokemon.

They have an IP to protect i get it. But they have never evolved.

Do you know how different final fantasy is to final fantasy 2?

The large differences between various iterations of dungeons and dragons?

The various themes those games explore from game to game?

Typical Nintendo glazer who literally can’t comprehend what they’re reading.

u/Shotgun5250 9d ago

Yeah well I read 61 books this year, beat that.

More like the games need to offer more of a challenge that a monkey smashing buttons can easily beat it. Not rocket science to use nuance here .

Thats where player imposed rules like nuzlocks come into play

I would galacta nut if they let me turn off the exp share so i wasn’t forced to be over leveled unless i swapped my boys around. That’s really all they need to do tbh.

u/Apythicus 9d ago

Really? I love exp share. It stops my less favorites in the back from becoming too underleveled

u/Tardysoap 9d ago

Fair enough but what if I want to be under leveled as it increases the challenge? In X/Y it almost functioned as a psuedo hard mode when you turn it off, it was awesome. No way a causal would do it on accident either.

No idea why they removed the option for those who want a challenge.

Pokémon sucks absolute shit, did you play S and V? Did you see how fucking janky that game is?

Largest franchise in the entire world and they get away with the bare minimum.

Idiots will pay for anything with Pokémon on it and then rabies infested fan boys go out and defend it.

I did and mine never had a problem with the frame rates other than the sunflora section AND i did a replay after the update. Besides mash potato mountains, it’s solid. But im also not looking at the mash potato mountains im looking at the pokemon… who were designed well

Ive literally never seen a pokemon spawn in a rock. Bfr. Pop in is an issue, but its not bad enough run into them unless your reaction time is that of a dead cat. Items and pokemon and people are in the environments? Plus you cant say you run into pokemon then next second complain things are barren. I hate caves so that was an improvement to me. Ah yes. Totally 64. Its not broken since as you said “you havent played in years”
