I only played through these games once and it wasn't great (My return to Pokemon since maybe Gen 3) but I'll give them this, I liked the legendarys, Yveltal especially may have been the coolest one since Groudon.
>>
>>59075539
But enough about X and Y...
>>
>>59075505
Like literally every game since platinum, it's one step forward and two steps back
>>
>>59075505
Peak shit lol

>>59075539
How is the level curve ACTUALLY bad?
>>
>>59075539
>Slow
Well yeah you're supposed to take your time with it, this was before games had to be digestible in one sitting for fetuses with no attention span
>Terrible regional dex
Use the Pokewalker and play the side content
>Awful level curve
Use the Pokewalker and play the side content
>No challenge
Yeah dude, it's a Pokemon game
>>
>>59075655
Nu-fans don't realize you can win while being a slightly lower level lol
>>
>>59075666
Yeah but he said in the SAME post
>no challenge
So what's the actual issue?
>>
>>59075666
still pretending this is the complaint is willful ignorance
>>
>>59075677
It's 50/50 whether people complain that they're underleveled or that they're overleveled. No one can make up their minds. Almost like there's nothing wrong with the level curve and it's completely astroturfed
>>
>>59075724
My issue is just that kanto wild pokemon aren't scaled at all from their originals, so trying to replace a pokemon post elite four is kind of ass. I don't usually replace anyone, but there's a few times where i have and it took a lot of grinding/babying.
>>
>>59075724
or it could be that you're being deliberately obtuse because you don't have an answer for the real issues people bring up.
>>
>>59075736
You aren't looking in the right places. Rock smash encounters, super rod encounters, and ESPECIALLY trainer rematches are great ways to train new team members
>>
>>59075738
Not him and genuinely not baiting, but what's the actual issue with the curve?
>>
>>59075738
What are these so-called "real issues" then?
t. played through the game tens of times
>>
>>59075745
that if you catch a new team member late into the game, everything is too low level to train it up.
on the other hand, if you stick with only a few pokemon, you'll overlevel and steamroll everything, and the game will be boring,
also this is an issue i haven't seen anyone else bring up but: pokemon being generally lower level means they'll be using weak early moves for longer.

>on the other hand, if you stick with only a few pokemon, you'll overlevel and steamroll everything, and the game will be boring
So exactly like every Pokemon game ever then
>pokemon being generally lower level means they'll be using weak early moves for longer.
okay, and?
>>
>59075778
you are being stupid on purpose so i will not bother arguing with you

I accept your concession.
Johtochads win again.
>>
>>59075505
of being shit.
>>
>>59075808
Nah that's USUM and we all know it
>>
>>59075819
I think SWSH is worse
>>
>>59075823
Yeah you're right SwSh and BDSP are actively worse. XY was just a complete downgrade from Platinum, HGSS, and B2W2 combined.
>>
>>59075831
Kind of a shame there was never a game that actually took all the good from plat, hgss, and bw2 and put it into one game.
>>
>>59075763
You're describing every Pokemon game ever made. Most people should have their final teams solidified between the 6th and 7th gym at the latest (unless there's a legendary or something that they really want to go out of their way to have). Sometimes as soon as the 4th.

This is how every game works Do you even play Pokemon games?
>>
>>59075837
*ahem*
ORAS
>>
>>59075855
>no frontier
>no followmons
>commonized shinies
>only one minigame, that was already in rse
i dunno man, i think oras is an okay remake at best
>>
>>59075855
Oras is way too easy, but dexnav was supremely kino. I don't actually care about the frontier but it probably gets docked points for that. Following pokemon is big though.
>>
>>59075870
dexnav was a cool idea but i don't like the increased shiny odds.
shinies are supposed to be rare
>>
>>59075505
Wrong pic?
>>
>>59075876
I don't really care about shinies all that much. The cool part was the boosted IV rate and hidden ability stuff. It just made me feel like I was actually hunting for a quality pokemon.
>>
>>59075606
>no u! :(
Cope
>>
>>59075886
for sure, that part was neat
>>
>>59075867
>complaining about Commonized shinies in an X and Y thread
>the games that reintroduced guaranteed shinies via the pokeradar and casualized increased odds with friend park
>>
>>59075916
yeah i was arguing against xy too earlier in this thread
>>
>>59075921
This you?
>>
>>59075928
i like that movie but no thats not me thats the gayniggers from outer space
>>
>>59075898
I don't have to, just looking at the tread shows me that I won.
>>
>>59075944
Nah it's just like you frfr
On God bruh
