Serious question. I haven't played Pokemon Scarlet until last night. It's a very very very minor thing but why did they get rid of even an option to turn off EXP Share or at least during the battle not asking you if you wanna switch Pokemon.Ever single game in the franchise has those options.
>>58254383>It's a very very very minor thing but why did they get rid of even an option to turn off EXP Sharebecause there's no reason to turn it off
>>58254396This. It's actually good game design when you reach gym 1 with level 30 mons
>>58254400how are you doing that? are you fighting every overworld pokemon you see on the map? if your mons are overleveled and you dont like it, catch other ones or stop battling every single thing on your screen>uhm ackshually it's good that i have to grind for 45 minutes to level my pokemon before every gym
>>58254404thinking about it maybe the real issue is getting exp from catching pokemon, i just want to catch every new pokemon i see to finish the dex quickly
>>58254383When you find out they also removed Set mode...
>>58254410That's the second point he made.
>>58254404how about just give the player a choice so those who want to level slower can, and those who don't, don't have to? literally what is the harm in just giving a toggle? does it affect your experience? no. but it lets other people play how they want.
>>58254396Why no option. I hate getting EXP handed to me where I feel no need to explore if I'm too strong.
>>58254396>>58254404>there's no reason to turn it off as long as you don't play the game the way you want to play it, and instead play it how I want to play it...
>>58254383They didn't provide any justification. They just said that, if you're not happy and want to make things harder for yourself, just play with one Pokemon at a time instead, even if you could already do it.>>58254396Some people want to earn an evolution. Having a Pokemon doing nothing in your team gaining level and potentially evolve is not as rewarding as if you used it in battles, switching with your other Pokemons depending of your needs, making it part of your team for a while, to reach the required level. And it's not like programming an optional Exp Share will create more bugs and lags.
>>58254400This but unironically. Levels should actual meaning instead of being poorly designed like Gen 5 where everything is your level -5.>>58254426>Why no optionBecause there's no reason to turn it off.>>58254461>Some people want to earn an evolutionYou still do that with the EXP Share on.
>>58254464PLA is the only game the managed levels well for an open world approach
>>58254383Because they want you to play the game the way they want
>>58254383Because these companies are getting greedy and controlling and want to take away and control us so we cant have anything.
>>58254464>Because there's no reason to turn it off.Of course there is! The reason is that the player wants to turn it off
Don't forget they removed the ability to turn off animations.
If you haven't hacked your Switch yet, or using mods and tools to evade all bullshit from GF (minor tweaks like toggle on/off stuff from game, transfering mons to current gen only through save edit without any PokeBank, having a "stock" of your own saves according with gametime, so you can undo shit when you accidentally the whole thing), JUST FUKKEN DEW IT
>>58254383Prease undastand, we are smarr indie company...
>>58254512>The reason is that the player wants to turn it offThat's not a reason.
>>58254383This has been the case since Let's Go.The problem is that while most JRPGs are actually balanced around EXP being distributed to all party members and have carefully designed enemy levels Pokemon doesn't give a shit. Between the overly generous EXP yields and inability to turn it off, unless you're constantly keeping a tab on Bulbapedia/Serebii open to know what levels the upcoming gym leader is so you don't surpass them, just battling every trainer you come across or catching every new Pokemon that isn't in your dex is enough to become overlevelled.
>>58254396What if I want my Pokemon to be underleveled?
>>58254383I don't really mind exp share getting removed but getting rid of the set mode was a really retarded decision, just WHAT were they thinking
