the puyo discord is in a tizzy because the balance changes did nothing to fix the mixed vs matchup, and even made things worse in a few ways

I don't get it, how can pvp be screwed up? Whatever new advantages one player has, the other has access to as well.

P-Mack posted:

I saw people bitching that it was screwing up PvP too... Can you summarize the issue so I don't have to scroll through pages of frantic Puyo emojis?

the RPS in puyo is basically speed>power>durability, the time it takes to set and pop your puyo helps maintain this balance

what vanilla PS4/Switch changed from classic puyo, and this patch appears to have changed even more, is the speed at which you can place puyo

since you can extend your chains quicker there's less incentive to make disruptive pokes, this is also the reason why puyo doesn't have quick drop by default. all you do is go for long chains

dragon enthusiast

that's cause Puyo's only way to deal real offensive pressure to Tetris is by threatening to kill them outright lol

once you can chain really high the top of the board becomes the limiting factor so you gotta start learning how to disrupt the other player

too bad no switch puyo chronicles announcement in the direct cause the pros like it a lot, also a bunch of other modes like fever

dragon enthusiast

there was one fun idea that the animevo TO came up with where puyo sent fusion mode garbage instead, cause that makes blocking garbage that stops things like t-spins

P-Mack posted:

Dumb armchair game design, could speeding up how fast chains resolve help keep that balance?

probably, but it'd make the gap between low and high level play that much greater, not to mention puyo vs tetris at low levels of play gets even more oppressive

the easiest, cheapest thing for them to do would be to put out emulated PP2 with online play like everyone has demanded for years

they did this with arcade PP2 on wii VC in japan
