So um...how bout' those open areas? The map looks quite nice and if they've built off of the Legends Arceus engine I'm hoping for a genuinely beautiful game.

Metapod posted:So what's this about me not being able to change clothes where was this said You can still change clothes, but there's only 4 styles of uniform to choose from. Shirt with shorts, shirt with pants, puffy vest with shorts and zip-up suit jacket with pants. In exchange there's going to be more facial customization. There's also going to be an unknown number of accessories to buy. Sleeping Sigma fucked around with this message at 20:08 on Aug 4, 2022 |

That said, you can also customize your character's face far more than in previous games: quote:Arrange your looks and hairstyle to freely change your appearance So maybe it'll balance itself out? Kind of lame regardless.

Honestly the most hilarious thing about the uniform thing is, in Spain we're super casual with clothes. Like uniforms are associated with private schools, specially elementary school. So from my perspective the protagonists look even younger than usual.

I think it's at least marginally neat that we should be able to identify a random online person's game version by their clothes. Congrats Gamefreak

All the player clothes budget went into discovering the technology for sparkly materials for the teracrystalwhatever.

I am so worried that they're gonna gently caress up the special tera-crystal balls to be something like 1x throwable crystal ball per 24hr day so you have to save it for the shiny legendary you're hunting or w/e or else you'll never get the crystal macchiato suicune

Shiroc posted:I pulled up the Mass Effect charts they released for the Legendary Edition: Your argument is they shouldn't try because only a small percentage uses it and your evidence is a game that included it even though a lot of people opted out of it. I'm not sure that really makes sense.

Looper posted:hard mode is battling competitively, always has been This is my main concern. I really hope the Terastalize mechanic has reasonable restrictions (each Pokémon species only has a limited number of types they can transform into), otherwise it'll be really stupid. Kinda seems like it's going to be ok. Still worried.

ZenMasterBullshit posted:Like this is incredibly stupid thinking that's pathetically subservient. "I am the smart calm one because I am so grateful for the games as they are, you should never hope they get better or do more with aspects of the game's I don't care about" I don't think I have any obligation to Game Freak or that they have any to me. They make a game, offer it up for purchase and I can decide to buy it or not. They're not a government. I made the statement because I don't think the argument was ever going to go anywhere and was just making GBS threads up the thread. The things that people throw out for how they want the games would make them much, much less fun to me. It isn't a binary Make Better or Not. That's why I said I like them as they have been.

I really hope the Terastalize mechanic has reasonable restrictions (each Pokémon species only has a limited number of types they can transform into), otherwise it'll be really stupid. Tbh I think the thing most likely to make it broken is doubling up STAB with a boosting item, rather than the type changing. Just giving any mon Adaptability whenever you want seems way worse for a stable competitive scene than changing weaknesses around. Like the type stuff is way more interesting to think about but I doubt it'll compare to just letting your Moxie Gyarados annihilate the one defensive check your opponent has with a 2x boosted Waterfall after one DD. Losing sleep thinking about what Scarf Kartana does with this. Maybe the numbers will be such that it's not a big issue, like maybe its only a 1.3x boost like the -ite abilities and you lose STAB on you're secondary type so it's riskier.

If the they made all the hairstyles intersex that'd be pretty dang sweet. Also while none of these outfits is particularly amazing the overalls aren't awful. Hope they have betters hats available tho.

if you want a challenging but fun experience look into heart gold. the level curve in that game encourages clever play rather than steamrolling with overleveled monsters like the recent entries

Arceus was decidedly not beautiful, except for maybe parts of the first area. This game is not looking beautiful either, but hopefully it's a bit less plain than other recent entries. Edit: Didn't mean to swoop in with two negative posts; I am excited for the game. But the aesthetics could use some work.

Gamefreak I'm begging you to hire someone who knows what cool clothes are and let them design some for you. Dressing like a huge nerd should be an option, but it shouldn't be the ONLY option. Changing outfits is one of the forms of customization people love most, why would you intentionally limit this?
