Bugs and lovely coding aside I'd still already rate it higher than SwSh because you actually get to do things in the plot and they wrote some fun characters instead of...Hau without the humanity and Two Rivals Appearing Twice Each.

It needs like 6 months of work just for optimization tbh. It's honestly annoying how good the game is under it. If it was SwSh quality I could have just written it off at least.

Good Citizen posted:I’m a bit confused about these online terra raids. When I walk up to the crystal and select that anyone can join I always seem to be the host? If so where are these other people coming from? When I go to the shop stations I only ever see the option to join a raid by entering a link code so I don’t understand how to just join an open one without a link code Open your menu and go to the pokeworld or whatever it's called. Above save and settings. Also just go into every menu at least once in every game you play. Just a helpful tip

IronicDongz posted:tbh I think the more significant thing than that is how it's an open world game where you are expected to explore, if you want to power through harder content earlier you can but for most players it wants them to feel things out and leave if it's too difficult I mean they were asking about how the game gives you any hints about that and they...do. and you can manually get more hints at any poke center with a option that appears in the menu you have to see to heal your pokes.

Augus posted:way more than the framerate issues it bothers me that the battles feel like a downgrade from how fast and snappy arceus’s battles were. switching Pokémon in particular is really slow, it’s annoying. the general feel of running around and exploring also feels like a downgrade from Arceus. Every animation going into in and out of battle was way way more sluggish in PLA. Not to mention the combat just worse overall. You're crazy

Blaziken386 posted:the animations for stuff may have been slower but PLA feels faster because the UI is more fluid. Having the ability to scroll through the rest of your team and using the trigger to throw out their pokeball feels faster than menu-ing it drat you're right, PLA's mechanical changes were dogshit and it wasn't actually faster.

Tender Bender posted:I'm enjoying this game a lot, but I don't think it's an exaggeration to say some of these textures are N64 quality. Please help the Gamefreak workers, there's no way they could have put out a game that looks AND runs like this unless they're under insane time restraints. I mean GF is also historically not good at the technical side of games and does not expand their workforce significantly ever. Give them more time and hire people that know better.

BrainDance posted:After coming across the one (that I know of) sandwich shop that you can actually just go in and its a room you can walk around in I am so confused as to why they didn't just do that for the rest? Apparently it's not a technical problem because that sandwich shop works.... that one treasure restaurant or whatever works too, all the gyms work, so why not just do that for the rest? I thought at first it was a performance thing for who knows what reason but if those work why wouldn't the rest work? They should all instead be the menus cause it's less loading and the interiors are utterly pointless.

Stux posted:agreed the busywork check list game of flat empty areas that repeated pokemon endlessly and couldnt have more than 2 on screen at once and had gameplay best described as holding down ZR to fire a machine gun of balls at everything and nothing else is much better. unrelated but a cartoon roadrunner just caved my skull in with an anvil. It's the best because I saw a bigger than normal pokemon and clapped and the normal pokemon battle system for children is too complicated for me so the simplified game really was perfect for my dehydrated brain.

What chanting are you people talking about? The vocal part of the boss gym leader? That's not trying to be a crowd chanting or cheering it's just the music adding in a layer of vocalization as another instrument. Like a more tame version of what platinum does with its boss fights.

Charcadet evolves into Ceruledge at like level 40 if you're doing the game straight. I...no if you just explore north of the 3rd lowest level gym town you can get to where it evolves at like level 25 ish on average since the wild life is like 23-28 in the area. Like even just following levels it's almost half what you're saying, lol. hell the area AFTER that town is only like level 32-38!

Its not trying to Ape the cheering crowds of SwSh its just a vocal line added to give it an extra layer to make the final stretch feel more climactic. It's way more cheerful and playful than the attempted sports chant.of SwSh which makes sense because every gym fight is framed as a much more personal and fun fight thank to the addition cut in dialogue and the gyms gimmicks like the people watching Tyme perform and boosting you or her or the crowd coming in to try and cheer Larry up and make him get.more into. It's more "This is us having real fun" tonally than swsh."this is getting serious" chanting.
