can't wait for pokemon gen 10!
okay faggot
>>58933568Sinnoh WON
>>58933568Gen 9 was the moment that everyone should have realized that fans reflexively trash anything Pokemon does at this point. Great generation that has been dragged through the mud because of the performative bashing that so many feel compelled to take part in to prove they're a part of the in group.
>>58933654truethats why I dont read reviews anymore, gen z gamers are retarded
Me either. It's always so funny seeing children post metacritic screenshots to try and ignore the games' continued good reception among people who actually still play the video games.
Shill thread, get necked tendjeets
>>58933654Also The Gen 9 games sucked ass
>>58933807>TPC>having ANYTHING to do wwith the production of core pokémon titles, outside marketing and localising themIf they "didn't meet sales goals", that's a failing of TPC's job, not either of Game Freak or Nintendo, who actually* are responsible for the existence of the game (given Nintendo's contract with Game Freak pre-dates any of TPC's existence and still remains an agreement where Nintendo front the dev budget for Game Freak to make games for their system in the Pokémon series). And given we know Game Freak are nuts deep in Legends 3 for Switch 2, it's unlikely Nintendo will pull the plug. Even poor sales still result in a doubling of system sales.
>>58933807hope the legends series is dropped
>>58933807>I’m a gullible retard who believes “my uncle works at nintendo” tier posts from twitterno one cares retard
Why did ZA get reviewbombed but not PLA?
>>58933654>it's just a little bit of performance issuesAnd on a closed game system with propeitary hardware there's no fucking excuse for it. You make me pay out of the nose to play in your castle, you have to beta test your fucking games, so there isn't a problem for the games that Nintendo doesn't have this problem with for any other franchise.
>>58933844the dlc thing, plus it being limited to one city killed it for alot people
>>58933654>Great generation that has been dragged through the mudNone of this applies to Gen 9.
>>58933654>game releases in an embarrassingly buggy state>environments look like they belong on the Dreamcast, and it wouldn't even be the best looking game on the Dreamcast>barely any building interiors, most "cities" are just the Pokemon Center, the gym (if it has one), and copy-pasted shops that are just a menu>no dungeons of any kind and most landmarks are just for decoration>performance issues are only "fixed" 3 (three) years after launch by buying a brand new $450 system for the "free" patch>pitiful postgame that's only "fixed" by buying the $35 DLCThis shitshow wasn't criticized enough. If it wasn't a Pokemon game it would have been as ridiculed as No Man's Sky or Cyberpunk 2077 at launch. They're are JRPG's from two decades ago that shit all over Scat & Vomit.
>>58933871>plus it being limited to one city killed it for alot peoplePretty dumb that it did. Being set in a single city isn't bad.
>>58933844Because if PLA was undercooked, ZA is just straight up an awful fucking game.
>>58933895>If it wasn't a Pokemon game it would have been as ridiculed as No Man's Sky or Cyberpunk 2077 at launch.It was. It literally was. That is 100% a thing that happened. Y'all niggas were claiming that there were bugs that would literally brick your fucking console.
>>58933952>Y'all niggas were claiming that there were bugs that would literally brick your fucking console.Because there were, it was proven
>>58933956Name two people it happened to.
>>58933895>If it wasn't a Pokemon game it would have been as ridiculed as No Man's Sky or Cyberpunk 2077 at launch.No, it'd just be a niche Japanese game where people would coom over the waifus.
>>58933654Gen 8 and Gen 9 was a wombo combo of dogshit quality games, now everyone sees the gaming side of it as shovelware and I fully agree with them
>>58933844ZA is an actual bad game with even worse dlc, the score is accurate
>>58933968Z-A is the best Pokemon game since the 3DS and no amount of crying about building textures will change that.
>>58933910>Being set in a single city isn't bad.it is when the city gets boring an hour into exploring it, you've basically seen everything there is too it.
>58933965>Pocket Monsters>niche
>>58933952And yet it still went on to sell 20 million copies and be the second best selling Pokemon game after R/B/G/Y. The gooks are laughing at their “fans” all the way to the bank and at this point I do not blame them.
>>58933568Ummm actually sweaty SV is the greatest game of all time, just look at the sales numbers! SwSh is the worst game of all time, just look at the sales numbers, it sold less than SV!
>>58933895Excuse me, I had a Dreamcast. The games looked and played way better than scatvomit.
>>58933568what went wrong with diamond and pearl
SV is a joke. Uninspiring. Boring. Paldea deserves better than what GameFreak did to it. Ill never forgive GF. I cant believe it just keeps getting worse, honestly wondering how they can lower the bar even more for Gen 10 and 11.
>>58933971an hour is being generous
>>58933988both are horrid
>>58933997This still makes me hard
>>58933844ONE CITY
>>58933568why the massive gap between ZA and PLA?>>58933654gen 9 just doubles down on most of the bad aspects of the switch/3D era
>>58933844it was released before palworld
Oh so suddenly ratings matter ok lets go for that!
>>58933568
>>58934947good gams by handheld standards, mid on consoles
>>58934988games*
>>58933654this is UNIRONICALLY true. this board just loves to hate.stupid fucks
>>58933654im not sure if Gen 9 sucked or not bc the game is so ass to control and move around in that i couldnt play more than 5 hours
>>58935003Gen 9 was genuinely terrible
>>58934951Please let Morimoto direct a game and bring back Masuda for the music
>>58934947Man, XY holds a small part of my heart but it absolutely doesn't not deserve the highest score out of all of those. ORAS was the better gen 6 game, but half of it was cause it already had a better story in the background.
>>58933654>>58935003I really don't understand the cult-like worship of modern pokemon games by a lot of people. They take every piece of criticism like you just insulted their religion or something.It's like these are the only games you're not allowed to point out the flaws in for some reason.
>>58933844>Why did ZA get reviewbombed but not PLA?Sinnoh = sovlKalos = brown shithole
>>58935409This but old pokemon
>>58935480>no uD? One.
>>58935489Thanks for proving my point
>>58935503I accept your concession.
>>58934947XY is best looking game aesthetically So yes Pokemon ZA is brown shithole
>>58933970Not even you genuinely believe this bullshit.
>>58933997This still makes me harder
>>58935409>cult-like worshipIt isn't "cult like worship". It's the hypocrisy of the fanbase whining about everything and when they get what they want, they turn around and cry anyways because in reality, all they actually want to do is bitch incessantly.
>>58934947They never matter, you just got baited
>>58933997This still makes me hardest
>>58933844PLA actually did at first
>>58933568Always funny reading the actual reviews on metacritic. Some articulate critics in there, mostly drowned out by screeching manchildren in broken english. And I do mean screeching, there's quite a few in all caps.
>>58935837I played it twice, completing a living dex both times and a living shiny dex in the first save file. The Switch Pokemon games weren't very good and it's not hard to be better than them.The only thing stopping me from playing through it a third time is the fact that I don't want to get burnt out on it.
Gen 9 was boring
>>58933870This, we're not on handheld side systems, and the games don't cost $40-$60 anymore, were' paying $70 bones WITH DLC on top, I expect better.
>>58934951You're going to regret posting this when you see gen 10
>>58937849No, we're on handheld main systems (hence the increased price, just as colo/gale were fucking rip-offs for being fucking PITIFUL home console titles sold at full price) with the games still aimed at children. You can "expect" all you want, you're getting EXACTLY what you got as a child, but aimed at children 20 years younger than you.Like it or fuck off, that's your options. Well, there is "bitch like a little incel because it doesn't need you in the slightest" but that's clearly a given, seeing as you actually think you're important enough to cater to.
>>58935385>ORASCritics usually don't care about the remake or sister games since it's all rerelease content instead of a new generations. Emerald was snubbed on release for example.HGSS is the sole exception, because of how much new stuff they added to Johto and Kanto.
>>58933961my dear friends Nate Higgers and Kate Hikes
>>58935409Sounds like gen 5
>>58938057>just as colo/gale were fucking rip-offs for being fucking PITIFUL home console titles sold at full pricei didn't realize this myself until i just started playing Colosseum/XD after beating FR/LG/E. Colosseum especially is fucking SHORT. If it wasn't for the nearly mandatory grinding between Dakim and the Shadow lab, it'd be like 5 hours long max on a casual playthrough.
>>58934951Who's that on the right
>>58933910In za it is. They should have added a bike at least
>>58939211Iwao, he directed Legends Arceus but got replaced for Legends ZAInterestingly the director of ZA, Haruka Tochigi, joined Gamefreak pretty recently (ORAS was his first game) and before that worked on the Inazuma Eleven games, and much like Ohmori he was a map designer before becoming director
>>58933956>literally brick your fucking consoleAnd nothing of value was lost
>>58933844SV undoubtedly caused a ripple effect with how unforgivably dogshit it was. The user score for ZA would've been low regardless, but that sealed the deal.
>>58933833Look, at least we're not Sonicfags eating up every fucking rumor that gets reported or made on twitter.They were hyping the State of Gay all week because some fag losers shilled liked 4 fanfic rumors from /v/.
>>58933844Palworld wasn't a threat to Nintendo at the time.
>>58933654Wouldn't have happened if they didn't stab their fans in the back with that dexit bs.
>>58936534>and when they get what they want,I haven't gotten what I want for a decade.
>>58933568>userscore
>>58939229So they got a dude from a superior franchise and still managed to churn out garbage? Color me impressed.
>>58939820If everything gets panned from now on I guess that's a silver lining
>>58935409>It's like these are the only games you're not allowed to point out the flaws in for some reason.Gamefreak has mossad on their payroll
Why was PLA liked so much?
>>58944350I have it a go in emulator. It's not bad, but not great either, it definitely feels like an incomplete game from very early 3D game days, or like an old indie 3D game.
>>58933794>Me eitherESL.
If gen 10 looks good, is decent, plays well, written well, eg pretty much opposite to gen 9 then I might get a switch 2
>>58944365
>>58944362>Like an incomplete game from very early 3D game days, or like an old indie 3D gameWell they are just a smallu indie company so *grips throat* back off!
>>58944375It says its less grammatically correct in the image you posted, I don't blame you being ESL and allLess grammar=you're gen 1 jynx.
>>58933807khu is not a credible source
>>58944425It says "less grammatically formal", but I understand words are hard for shitskins like you.
>>58933568Just cancel mainline and just make more Mystery Dungeon already.
>>58938033>wants to do complete random generation of post-game areas according to the leaks>we know from the ZA and SV betas that the final is just going to look worse than what was leakedHe couldn't even make SV run properly at baseline. Gen 10 is going to be so bad.
>>58933568I actually enjoyed SV despite the issues it had. Was probably the most enjoyable pokemon has been for me in a while
>>58944513Based and Delcattypilled
>>58944616I can already tell by the spam
>>58933568>Legends ZA 4.7>Legends A and Rescue Team DX getting an 8.0 despite being genuinely worse games on every level????????????????????????
>>58933568I still don’t understand how people enjoyed Arceus more than ZA. Arceus was an empty world where you were tasked to catch the same Pokémon thirty times.
>>58946470it was new back thenpeople are just sick of so much shit now
>>58933568Black and white 2 was the worst pokemon game I played because it was a shitty gen 1 rip off.That was until I played legends Arceus which managed to be the most game because of it being am inconvenience to play at the word go. Thank God for home integration.
>>58944716>despite the issues, I had funHow original.>most enjoyable pokemon has been for me in a whileDaring today, aren't we?
>>58933568yeah it got the most game yo
>>58933654Those aren't actually fans, and you should stop wasting your time even thinking about them. You will be much better off when you stop falling for fake rage.
>>58933844PLA is a better game, and Game Freak framed it as a spin off.They pushed ZA as a mainline game. Mainline game = mainline expectations.
>>58947620Gamefreak said PLA was a mainline game. Never once was it said to be a spin-off outside of "fans" in denial.
>>58947620>>58947632I consider Legends more worthy of the title mainline than their last 2 flagship entries.
>>58933568>>58933643Pokémon hasn't had SOVL since Platinum.
So how will people go about review bombing gen 10 seeing as it's Switch 2 exclusive and can no longer use emulators to fake performance bugs?
