I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

It's not a fun game, it's the worst MOBA I've ever played and I played League of Legends for 10 years. There's no balance to the game, you spam buttons on a less than one second cooldown and anyone who's been playing nonstop or paid to win will just beat you because there's no actual skill in it.

a moba is still a moba even if it has a pokemon skin on it, which is to say not fun to play unless you're ten million percent down the moba hole

The game itself reeks of a cash in and it shows. The IP as a whole is worse of having it exist. Ame seemed like she really wanted to enjoy it because of Pokemon but game be bad.

RealFoxy posted:

The Pokemon MOBA is so pay to win that streamers are dropping hundreds of dollars just to solo pub stomp for content, and it probably doesn't hurt that most players are just kids.

Critikal showcased a 50-3 kill game where he was 49 kills and the other team's 3 kills happened in the first minute or two.

Literally the only pay for power mechanic in the game is item upgrades. Items level from 1-30, and get their last major upgrade at level 20, which is trivial to reach as a f2p player - I have like 5 level 20 items after finishing my daily quests for a week and a half or so(you only need 3 to fully equip a pokemon and several items are good across most of the cast), and I haven't dropped a cent on item upgrades. 20-30 is hosed up idiotic levels of investment(it's ~580 item upgrade things to go 1-20, and 2000 to go 20-30), but the difference in power between a level 20 item and a level 30 item is absolutely miniscule.

As an example, the Float Stone item's stats at level 20 are +18 attack and +80 movement speed, and at level 30 it's....+24 attack and +120 movement speed. In a game where a Pokemon's base movement speed is measured in the low thousands and attack is pushing 100 at level 1. Is it a tiny increase in strength if you're a turbo whale? Yeah, I guess. Does it actually affect the outcome of anything? Not really, no.

The game is balanced like instagib rocket tag, with hugely damaging abilities and ludicrously powerful crowd control options that make it incredibly easy to snowball all over people. The titanic majority of what people think is P2W is just a team setting up a snowball and rolling on the enemy team constantly. Winning a couple of crucial fights/stealing some neutral pokemon gives you a level or two advantage, which means you have a much easier time winning the next fight, which continues the cycle until the losing team is 3-4 levels down and basically has no chance.

Thankfully the games are a whopping 10 minutes long at absolute most and have a surrender function so the common problem in the moba genre of being trapped in an awful game for 30 minutes to an hour simply does not exist.

It really is a shame that its unarchived. Gura clearly put in a ton of work rewriting all the songs to be bard friendly and fit her theme. I hope Gura does more of this because all of its has been great.
