The one terrible thing I would say about BW2 are the amount of features locked forever in extralink that you can't access anymore. Hidden abilities in the dreamworld being one of the biggest.

Hidden abilities in the dreamworld being one of the biggest. Not that it even matters much because there's only 4 or 5 families that don't have any other method of being obtained with their hidden abilities (Just Hippopotas, Burmy, Karrablast and Shelmet I think). Hidden Grottos were pretty badly implemented though.

I feel like this is the kind of thing that relies heavily on how content your fanbase currently is. Riding on a high of hype? You can take your sweet time with reveals while the chat speculates and most casual viewers pop in and out through the day to check for new stuff. Fanbase on the fence? Then you really need to tighten up the timing, lead with strong new reveals, and win the crowd back. In a time like this, where everyone's desperate for good news, being kind of lackadaisical feels like a failure to read the room.

I think the idea is lame, but it'd be entertaining if it was more active. Let the old pokemon hang out and do things together, maybe eat berries or whatever. This just feels like it's punishment to streamers and serebii joe.

I don't have a huge sample base, but if my son's school is any indication, Pokemon is still preeeetty popular with kids. The show, toys, etc. are still heavily directed towards that part of the fanbase, and they'll sell to them on the force of the Pokemon name alone. I haven't heard any complaints about the Pokedex, or anything like it, from them. And they certainly know about it, since I've heard "Which Pokemon do you think will be in?" stuff.

Pokemon is huge and this'll definitely be no flop, like at worst it could underperform somewhat and "only" sell like 12 million copies. Or maybe they'll be the best selling ones yet. Still looking not great, and this stream is amazingly lazy (3 pokemon have slid in and out of the screen over 80 minutes). Nothing this game's done has convinced me to buy it, maybe if word of mouth is good i'll try it half-off like I did Let's Go Eevee.

y'all talking about this like nintendo specifically set out to piss you all off with this stream instead of it being something that was probably planned out maybe even up to a year ago down to the specific chunk of time during the day it was going to run

And like I said, if the prerelease period so far hadn't been so tepid I'd be loving this. I was more commenting on it being interesting that a brilliant idea in one circumstance can be a disappointing one in other circumstances.

I think my issue with this thing is just that it's boring. The idea is fine, a static camera of a zone of the game to sight-see some pokemon. But nearly two hours in, there's been 3 pokemon who spend less than ten seconds on the screen. Let them spend a minute, hang out, interact with the camera or something. Maybe even do a little battle. I'm sure there'll be a reveal every, like, four hours and that's fine, but the moment to moment could stand to be way more fun than this is. Not because they "have to" or anything like that, just because that would make this stream nice to see.

I feel like at this point the stream should have shown SOMETHING to try and hook people’s interest, y’know?
|
# ? Oct 4, 2019 16:09 |

But... clearly the point isn't to "hook interest" or they wouldn't be streaming 24 loving hours of a mostly empty forest vista??? What would they even be hooking your interest for? What would they gain from more eyes on this? This is not something you're supposed to stare at intently for a day, it's something you can put on in the background for some nice forest atmosphere and maybe something will happen and you happen to catch it. And if that's not for you of course everything revealed will be everywhere on the internet instantly anyway.
