It’s true. I had a brother; he refused to trade with me. I still have a brother, and I’m sure he’d trade with me now, but we’re in our (late) 30s, and so Pokemon time has certainly declined.
I’m cheating a little bit by posting screenshots I took a few days ago, but I’m a college student and I’m not scheduled to start classes again until next month. So playing is like the only thing I really have on my plate right now besides a few pet projects. I try to get at least an hour in though on games to help clear my mind and relax (though, there’s probably better ways to do that)
50% of it is just me wanting to share the screenshots. I considered just dumping the screenshots without much context, but this way I feel like I’m building a habit around it and i feel like it’s easier for people to find, if they really want too for some reason, a screenshot they missed. I totally get why it would be irritating though. A lot of them on Reddit I feel like we’re really low effort posts
I get why the poor perfomance got the game some negative reviews, but I don’t get the batmobile hate at all. I love my little tank and thought the game had some great passages for it.
All that aside I enjoyed a lot of the story missions as well and liked the plot and how much of an impact your story progression had on the open world.
Yeah idk, the Riddler making you do time trial batmobile races kind of feels like the Joker forcing you to do taxes. I didn’t mind them from a gameplay perspective, it just seemed kind of silly.
I do think the Combat got a bit old with the Batmobile. But that’s just my personal opinion. I do like all the other things the Batmobile introduced, like the riddler riddles and the races (not to mention how fun it is to just destroy the environment)
The plot though is amazing. If I had to pick between it or Arkham city (my other favorite) I don’t know which one I would pick. It would be a difficult decision
I was a transparent purple homie. Ended up having to write my name on it because all my friends were too and we didn’t wanna accidentally switch them up. One of the group was notorious for not taking care of his shit and I didn’t wanna end up swapping with him on accident and getting a janky boi
I’ve actually heard that’s why overdraft fees are a thing. The money transfer system gets confused if you’re around zero and ends up creating money that doesn’t exist.
back in the late 00’s there was (maybe still is, who knows) an online service called “gamefly” where you could rent games. At the time the DS pokemon games would allow you to plug in a pokemon GBA cart and copy the pokemon from the GBA to your DS. So I would constantly rent GBA Pokemon games in hopes of finding something good on them to copy to my DS Pokemon game. I had it all scheduled out and everything. You could also wondertrade hacked pokemon or like really good pokemon online. I don’t remember exactly HOW you did it but I do remembering doing it.
I think local multiplayer absolutely peaked with the Nintendo DS. The download games where you could play with one cartridge, multiplayer without wifi, pictochat. Today you have to subscribe to shitty online services or at least play through wifi, which completely annihilates the possibility to play in a car, bus or train without a router.
I think it was more about making money with subscriptions by incentivizing getting Nintendo Online to play against your friends. I bet they profited massively during corona from this business model.
