Pokémon (Not-So) Griefing Thread - Scarlet and Violet Released with 10 Million Copies in First 3 Days in Buggy States

[Welsh Catgirl Enjoyer]

I'm a lot more impressed this time around. I still feel like it's missing some polish but it's a significant improvement over their previous entries.

Main point to focus on for them is the anti-aliasing, how distant objects are rendered (a few times you have low-res parts of the environment that pop out too much, could use a little blur to help), and certain moving objects seem to have a really low framerate which is pretty off-putting.

It certainly still feels rather rough, but it feels like GF's experience with SW/SH and PLA are helping out a lot here.

Its no fair, the japs get the fucking DBZ name in the spic Pokemon game. The jokes literally write themselves.

The Toilet (Fire dino/crocodile) has the potential to be pretty badass, imo. I have not idea where they'll go with the other two however.

So people are speculating if PLA style catching is in or not based on the website:

Personally I think it won't be as OP to sneak up on mons but there will be elements like that in the game since there's still grass in the new footage that looks like the stuff you can hide in like in PLA

Those Starters look ridiculous.

They really need to retire the Grass/Fire/Water triangle.

On one hand, at least they actually had something to show unlike the Digimon event. On the other hand, three rushed games with less features and Pokemon then the previous titles isn't really an appealing output. I want it to be good, for sure. I don't want any game to be bad. But, I'm pretty doubtful that GameFreak can pull off a win.

They already did that. Remember gen 6?

PLA was a pleasant surprise, so I'm hopeful. Although, I don't know why their pushing out another game this year consider PLA came out almost a month ago.

Really though. What Animal is the Fire Starter?

A Hippo? A Dinosaur? A Toilet?

Crocodile it seems

Are Crocodiles apart of Chinese Zodiac?

Nope, but dragons are.

 

[Dunsparce]

Nope, but dragons are.

Then where does Charmander fit in this?

The theory was bunk to begin with

 

[Lone Star]

People are trying to cope that it's the snake slot.

3rd mainline game on the switch (if you count Arceus) and it still looks like complete shit lmao.

And those starters.... what the fuck do these japs need to start smoking?

 

[CrippleThreat]

I was listening to Shofu an hour ago, and the point he made on BDSP makes me sad, bros:

It's just a half-assed holiday cash grab, that was overshadowed by PLA literally from its first announcement. And now Gen 9 is revealed? I've never felt so cucked as a Gen 4 fan, and I never even purchased the game.

But good thing Shaymin's coming, amirite?

5th, if you include all titles that Game Freak lists as mainline titles on their website:

-Let's Go Pikachu/Let's Go Eevee
-Sword/Shield
-Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl
-Legends: Arceus
-Scarlet/Violet

Also if these are all included, That means the Switch is now tied with the original DS for most mainline titles(9 when you include paired versions), and I doubt these newly announced games will be the last titles for the system.

 

[Rotollo 2]

I doubt these newly announced games will be the last titles for the system.

Please no ultraViolet InfraRed 60 dollar rereleases, the dlc was a fine middle ground for third versions
