All sides in this argument just need to realize nobody can force them to shut up, as long as they are making their points respectfully. The entire conversation about one side being able to muscle the other out of the conversation is moot, it's not something 'the other side' can actually enforce.
Yeah, I was referring to what is happening on the Internet in general, not to this particular thread or community. Sorry, I should have made that clear.
You might not like them, but the game brought a ton of people into the franchise and it had the best multiplayer of the series. So yeah, i'd say its fine.
You're reading waaaay too much into that light-hearted post about my opinions.
It's not and even then you choosing to put those Pokemon on that service in entirely voluntary. If you don't want to wait for the Pokemon to come back then keep them in the Pokemon game you already own and transfer them in when the Pokemon is back.
So why didn't they announce it sooner then? It's not like the game was revealed at E3
Gen V fans do. They still act like the games are cult classics and not one of the more popular Pokemon generations just because some non fans made fun of the ice cream Pokemon a couple of times.
No I meant I hadn't heard anything about them recieving death threats from anyone until this thread was filled with people admonishing it. I was just wondering if I missed the news article.
They didn't get it out before they even showed gameplay. They said it after all of the gameplay was shown, Bill Trinen asked (most likely scripted) if he'd be able to transfer all of his Pokemon from Let's Go to this game, Masuda gave a weird "if they're in Sword and Shield" answer, Bill looked confused, Masuda repeated it, and the segment ended.
Yeah it doesn't help that they avoided to directly address the issue. When they said they won't be putting all mons I never expected they would cut so many fan favorites.
Gen V do what?I don't get what are you saying lol. I personally like gen V and the Gen V games because all the DS era games are great but I still have the ice cream.
Been going a lot longer than that. Heinz ketchup, Coca Cola/Pepsi. Brand loyalty has been a thing for a LONG time and it's in every market. Most companies want this kind of bickering.
Nah, definitely filled to the brim. Lots of hidden nooks and crannies with money to find, you can interact with almost everything in any given room, and there are a bunch of gems in each floor that force you to use your brain to obtain them. It's great.
I could've sworn someone told me they did it before because I brought up they did it after the demo and I was corrected. Still I doubt this was something they were intending to keep under wraps for long to begin with. It still doesn't take away that they talked about it at the game's first proper showing on a highly viewed livestream and was done 5 months in advance.
They announced it pretty early to be fair.
Masuda has been apologetic ever since they first announced it. They're not apologizing for it openly, but I'd say it's a stretch to say they don't consider this to be a bad thing.
He didn't really sound apologetic with the initial reveal.
So making cuts is the same level as restarting a majorly awaited game from scratch from botched development?
I mean it already happened once before in the franchise and it's just not absolutley something on the tier of botw or prime 4 major long delays.
I'll have to rewatch the Treehouse segment, but that's what I recall from memory. I also remember an interview on some publication with him saying they'd cut none if they could, but I might be misremembering stuff. It's been a while since I paid close attention to all of this.
He said something like that some people might be disappointed, but that it was for a good reason. He wasn't constantly just profusely apologising.
I agree with the schedule for sure. Do we have any idea what kind of budget they have for these games though? Sadly, with the first trailer, what you say rings true. They're truly behind the curve, all I can do is sit it out and wait. Along with them moving past developing a handheld on console experience kinda game.
And that was a shit show in the pokemon community that started this whole thing. Especially, when all the defenders of that decision told eveyone that hated it to shut the fuck up and wait for your core game to come out next year.
That's from the Treehouse? The wording does ring a bell.
I just don't think they pictured so many people seeing masuda as thanos, maniacally laughing while he snaps away half the pokemon. More just some understanding disappointment
Indeed. Hopefully Gen 10 looks up to par, at least for me. Would love to see properly sized Pokemon in battles.
