It‘s likely cross-gen with the Switch‘s successor and I hope it‘ll be technically more competent than their last Pokemon game - especially since it‘ll have to run on the original Switch again

We all do but S/V sold like hotcakes so I highly doubt it. They really have no incentive to spend any more time or money that absolutely necessary to churn out games.
Legends means it’ll use the open world battling and catching mechanics seen in Legends Arceus.
Also features city planning, could be post-war reconstruction in the past (3000 years ago).
Also, the mega symbol at the end implies new Mega Pokemon.
And since it has a 2025 release date, hopefully it will have enough time to bug fix. Likely, it will use the existing Legends Arceus engine so hopefully that allows them more time to refine.
That’s probably the point here. They’re intentionally not showing anything and not saying too much because this is the launch game for the Switch U or whatever it’ll be called.
Nothing beats how much fun Minecraft was during the alpha days. It was so janky and broken, yes, but it was awesome seeing the game get built up and improved.
Things are good, not because of the amount of stuff inside the thing that is provided to be discovered.
I read this guy talking about when they nerfed fire in early Minecraft, how he and his friend before the nerf had accidentally set the entire continent on fire and had to run away in a boat for a long time across empty distant ocean, and landed in some strange place and how they set up the beginnings of their first base there that they played out of for years.
Things are good because of the quality of experience you have on the thing. Social media, operating systems, video games, life in general: Adding to it to make it "good" from the outside, often detracts from the goodness of the experience, from the ones experiencing.
Yeah, it was so janky and the jank is what made it fun.
Wed get griefers on our server whod set the whole server on fire, and it would burn endlessly. Wed all go out and try to clear trees to slow it down, periodically dropping our diamond axes on the ground to restore their condition because of course that was broken too.
I’ve had a similar experience with a lot of early-access games. They always end up disappointing, and I’ve come to realize it’s because the fun comes not just from playing the game and watching it develop and improve but also in equal part from expectations. It’s easy to look at an unfinished game and imagine what it could be in the future, and those fantasies inevitably exceed what is actually feasible to put into the game. I try to steer clear of early-access games now.
I don’t mind early access, but in also not tripping over myself to play them.
If the game is fun as it stands, then awesome. Anything extra is the cherry on top.
If the game feels half baked and like it’s missing all sorts of stuff, then naw. A game like that is just abusing it’s early access status. Trying to sell itself on the promise of what’s to come.
What about games that become less fun as their development goes along? That’s another thing I’ve noticed with some early-access games whose early versions were more… concentrated, for lack of a better term. If there’s progression involved, it tends to go pretty quickly in early versions. Development then doesn’t change how the game plays or where the progression begins and ends, instead it just adds padding between the fun bits and makes everything take longer. Ever encounter a game like that?
In those cases, as long as I got my moneys worth with the amount of time I invested in the game, then Im at least breaking even. But either way, Im not really spending much time on early access games. They really gotta be compelling to lure me in…
Well it’s a legends title so we’ll likely be able to expect something like Legends Arceus gameplay wise, what I’ll be anticipating is if they’ll do a Galar/Kalos/Paldea super region since Britain France and the Iberian Peninsula are all right on top of each other, and also because of the Gaullic Empire memes it could spawn.
Based on the trailer, I am assuming the entire game is self-contained within the city, though I’d expect it to be a lot bigger than the city was in X and Y.
This looks cool but will probably watch others play instead of getting it myself. Waiting for a Pokemon game on the next console. I think we’ve maxed out the Switch.
Gamefreak has yet to make a Pokemon game on the switch that doesn’t run like garbage so hopefully they can do a little better this go-around. I won’t be holding my breath though.
I wish they‘d stuck with what USUM did visually but in higher res and obviously with more eye candy. Neither the hardware nor the studio seemed to be ready for full 3D Pokemon.
The hardware is more than ready, there is no way in hell that 3D Pokemon would need more hardware power than Monster Hunter Rise or any Xenoblade game did. Monster Hunter Rise even had a horde mode of all things, using models that are way more complex than any Pokemon.
That seems like a bit of a stretch to me. If they felt the need to change the title, they would have done that before this reveal considering the war has been ongoing for 2 years now.
I think it'll be the recent past, showing how Lumiose came to be what it is in X/Y. A prequel story could do wonders for X/Y, fleshing out Lysandre with an actual backstory could make him interesting.
I love Ross pushing for this but it’s hard to believe we will ever see any results. Hopefully he is right and we see so some kind of success in Europe.
Infinity Blade only got ressurected this week and Opera Omnium shuts down this month.
From what I got in this latest video, the EU and Australia angle seems very promising, with many roads to possible success (for any EU or Australian people reading this, you can help in a big way!)
If a big enough market combats this we all win, remember, we only have steam refunds because Australia sued valve; but when only Belgium banned lootboxes EA just blocked it over there and moved on.
