went into target today to try and buy the double pack (for the little statue bonus, please understand), and for some reason the employees in the electronics section weren't willing to break street date when bribed with a small snickers bar alas

apparently while overworld shinies are a thing, they got rid of the very very useful "hey there's a shiny here!!" sound effect that made PLA so good for fun sparkledog farming

initial thoughts after the first couple hours -i don't know if it's because i have a physical copy and the problems are more prevalent on digital, or if it's because i'm playing in handheld mode, but i feel like a lot of the jank comments have been a little overblown? it seems to run mostly fine, lol -koraidon is real, and he is my friend -i wish that they copied the throwing mechanics from arceus, simply because sometimes the game is not targeting the same thing you are targeting. I shouldn't have to press ZL to aim at the pokemon in the center of the screen. I don't care if the skwovet directly behind me is technically closer, I was looking directly at the bounsweet in the tree. -its very funny to me that they had to cut corners hard when it came to interior environments. When i entered a shop and got a repeating background over a textbox menu, I laughed. The only shop in the first city that has an interior is the salon, and only because they blatantly re-used the same room from SwSh. This is not a mark against the game because it's funny. -speaking of cutting interiors, it's a little bit annoying that, in lieu of having random houses and apartments to barge into, they simply split the clothing shop into a dozen different buildings to make the city feel less empty. I should be able to buy shoes and socks from the same store. -what the gently caress theres a flamingo pokemon also this made me laugh, because it's so quintessentially pokemon: https://i.imgur.com/thVf0T6.mp4 Blaziken386 fucked around with this message at 06:13 on Nov 19, 2022 |

im noticing that, unlike PLA, pokemon spawning is kind of weird? Like in that game, if something appeared on the map, you could basically walk a mile away and when you came back it would still be there. I saw a mankey 5 feet away from me on top of a small incline. I couldn't get up the incline from that position, so I walked about 10 meters to the left. When I turned the camera back around, the mankey was replaced by a skiddo and a lechonk.

desperately wishing that there was some kind of indicator for which hairstyles you're allowed to wear hats with. long bob: hat okay medium curl: go gently caress yourself, no hat for you these are nearly identical, what metric are you using to decide, game???

Flopsy posted:Finding a charcadet is an absolute motherfucker in this game. For presumably being everywhere they're extremely hard to find. Kinda had to give up my dreams of using a ceruledge because the one I caught has a modest nature. She's too well suited (heh) to being an armarouge. hm. probably should've gone out of my way to catch more when i got a mass outbreak, instead of auto-battling the lot of them to death looking for a shiny

also re: voice acting my opinion is that it should be BotW style, ie: everyone gets nondescript noises for regular NPC conversations, but cutscenes get actual VA. This is to prevent more Piers Moments alternatively, no one talks except for Iono, who is given voice acting for every line, and also a recurring TV show or something.

ZenMasterBullshit posted: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 also you could swap without losing your turn unless the opponent was much faster, which was nice, if OP also also tying both attack stats and defense stats together meant when things like ancientpower procced, it didnt take as long (i love serene grace dunsparce, but i also hate it a little bit. please just say all stats raised please i am begging u)

i think the one really annoying visual bug I've experienced is that sometimes in clothing stores, your character model just doesn't load. Did you want to know what the socks looked like before buying them? gently caress you.

also re: level curve - this game is much better than SwSh because the Titan pokemon and Star bosses have giant HP bars and are willing to punish you for having glass cannon pokemon. My team mvp has been naclistack because its very defensive and salt cure has come in clutch for some of the stronger bosses
