What is your honest opinion on Pokemon Mystery Dungeon?
>>732643107I really like the recruit system and games where I can work with monsters are always better than games that don't let me do that but Shiren is better from a gameplay standpoint.If Shiren had the budget and story and recruitment system of a PMD game I'd never need anything else.
>>732643107It's funThinking about playing super again because i had a blast 100%ing it when it released
>>732643107It was a lot of fun when I was a child but as an adult it lacks mechanical depth
Peaked way too early with Sky.
Only furfags are into it and I wish it never existed.

I love it and I want a new one. Not a remake a brand new one. I want more series to do mystery dungeon games.
>>732643107Missed its shot when it didn't do one with Ultra Beasts. Such an easy slam dunk and they didn't capitalize.
Rescue Team is greatExplorers is perfectionGates had bad gameplay but a great storySuper had good gameplay but a meh storyI miss the series, but if it came back it'd probably be shit like everything else Pokemon these days
>>732647271>Gates had bad gameplay but a great storyRedpill me
>>732643107They're fine, but Shiren the Wanderer is obviously superior being the mainline series.
>>732647559>Bad gameplayAbsolutely abysmal lineup of Pokemon, both in terms of starters and overall available Pokemon (144 total, not counting the ~6 boss-only Pokemon)Hunger is all but absent from the entire game, except for exactly three postgame dungeonsMagnagate dungeons are really gimmicky and not really worth it>Great storyThe partner actually has his own desires and character, isn't just a wet blanket for the entire story, and steps the fuck up when shit hits the fan in the endgameA surprisingly good twist where the villains take advantage of the usual expectations for PMD plotsIntroducing the single biggest bro in potentially the entire series (Hydreigon)And maybe unpopular opinion/personal bias, but the ending blows RT and Explorers out of the water in terms of both closure and sad-factor (hell, the postgame even gives you the option to NOT return to the Pokemon world)It's the least fun PMD to actually play, but its story is on par with (and in some instances surpass) its contemporaries
>>732646808seriously what the fuck
>>732643107They need to make the story edgy and fucked up again
>>732643107Im very tempted to get PMD DX with my last switch voucher but I don't know if I should just ignore it and play the original again. Ive never really gotten a comprehensive answer to if DX is any good or not and I barely see anyone (even fans of the series) talk about it.
They should just make on with all 1000 pokemon, pixel artstyle, friend areas, one unique dungeon for each legendary and be done with it.
>>732643107>>732649913Looks fucking hideous, who thought this was a good idea
>>732643107Quite literally the pinnacle of Pokémon as a franchise.
>>732646808>>732649456By gen 7 they began phasing out the majority of pokemon spinoffs since they ended up being way too expensive to produce (especially the 3ds ones). Why every spinoff these days is mobile, they’re much cheaper and makes a lot more money. Not like anyone cares about PMD series anyway>>732649913Pretty universal that everyone says the demake sucks, dunno where you’re getting mixed responses from. The og’s are one virtual console anyway

Is the GBA one a good place to start? The one that's on Switch online

All I know it that everyone I've ever seen that was into the series is a furry.
>>732649913+gameplay improvements of later games+They jazzed up the boss fights to make them less faceroll-Explorable friend areas being removed is a severe loss of SOUL-basic attack is removed which really throws the balance off-forced to only ever be the starters while in town like the later games which I never liked so it's objectively a downgradeIt's okay, I don't think I'd pay full price for it but that goes for any switch game.
>>732650345i agree with you but friend areas were just empty nothing zonesthey didnt really add anything substantial or genuine
>>732649913demakes are demakes
Super is surprisingly devilish compared to the other games. In genuine surprise how many "fuck you get OHKO from across the entire floor" moments it has. Especially fuck the postgame
>>732650827What's good faggot
>>732650415It's very satisfying visiting them and seeing all your recruited pokemon creatures frolicking around
The one I played on DS was good, Explorers of the Sky or something? My complaint is that the tutorial/story was a real slog at the beginning, though.
>>732643107I like imagining myself as a pokemon
>>732643107It was awesome until they started making shitty sequels
>>732648837>postgame gives you the option to not return to the pokemon world>play super>player is wondering why the fuck he's stuck with a bunch of kids>become bros with the partner after he mans up>defeat the villain>your partner is the one who disappears, you're stuck as a pokemonIt's an interesting take for sure but kind of fucked up
>>732650152Yes, it’s the first game in the series and the most accessible version of it. Explorers of Sky (DS) is what you’ll want to play next, and if you want more, Gates to Infinity and Super Mystery Dungeon (both on 3DS) are the next 2.
>>732653052That ending made me more angry than sad, since I'm pretty sure they bring up the possibility of you needing to go home, but then don't answer whether you actually need to or not, even after the gay rug pull. I was seething throughout the entire credits sequence where the player is crying by the tree. What about MY home and life, you fuckers!?.Yeah, I know the "You need to go home" ending had been done three times already, but that doesn't make this stupid subversion ending that came out of absolute nowhere anything close to good or satisfying.
