now that the cum had driedwhat do /vp/ think of A-Z?
>>59353527It sucked
>>59353527>>59353530 (also (You))It was peak and the only real letdown was the smaller overworld, likely due to the game being a sudden change of plans from Johto to Kalos,
>>59353527>>59353541 (also (You))Genuinely an awful experience
>>59353576Nice deflection but nope.
>>59353589then why were you embarrassingly defensive of your irrelevant opinion off the getgo if you didn't want to get mad at someone in your head
We love it here.
>>59353603>irrelevant opinionThere's no such thing, opinions are always different and subjective.
>>59353527Bad choice of setting. Bad execution of the setting.Combat is janky cooldown combat. It's like I'm playing the fucking summoner in PSO2, but worse because at least the pets in that game just jump to the enemies (as far as I remember anyway) instead of trying to pathfind around and then wasting time repositioning themselves when you move an inch. It's fine, but not impressive.Rogue mega battles felt tedious.Didn't like most new megas. Even the ones that aren't "bad" are just kind of bland. The ones that felt like they just finished the design were the best, namely chesnaught and baxcalibur.Writing was a mess, but it's pokemon.Good music.Overall eh/10 good for a no budget FuRyu tier game.
>>59353527This game was so fucking shit and the dlc was even worse
Should have been set in the past, if they're not going to take advantage of a time skipped XY, absolute garbage
>>59353527>compshitters bitched about PLA so much they removed the focus on catching for Legends and have it become some hybrid catching/battle amalgamation that doesn't work either wayThanks a lot
>>59353527Should’ve been cheaper for what it offered. Also, the mega designs should’ve all been crowdfunded.
>>593535273rd best in the franchise
>>59353527Has it released yet?
The worst pokemon game ever, even worse than scavio. It's embarrassing that this board praises it.
>>59353953You lost palkek.
>>593538721. Let's Go Pikachu2. Pokemon Black3. LZA
>>59353527Insulting to share the same name as PLA. >Watered down catching system>Boring setting, wild zones are dull and sneaking barely works, making encounters incredibly annoying. Map tells you what mons are available before you even get there, spoiling what little novelty they offer.>Battle system is chaotic button mashing, can't even perceive what moves the opponent is using >Same boss battles again and again>Final boss is a weird plant mecha which makes no sense>Lumiose Tower becomes ugly for some reason>Barely any acknowledgement of XY>Terrible uninspired starter combo >No new monsWorst game next to SV and BDSP
I never skipped a line of dialogue, never. ZA was so soulless and repetitive that i just rushed the last 10 hours to finish it and never touched it again
>PLA is set during a mysterious time period that has been subject to tons of speculation>Kalos has an entire southern half that has never been seen before, along with other unexplored shit like the power plant>Ignore all of that and make the setting a single city that was already explorable from front-to-back during a time period that's relatively close to the original gameI fucking despise Gamefreak like you wouldn't believe holy fuck
base game is decent. getting ganged up by wild mons (aka better hordes) and sneak attacks are interesting additions. the dlc sucked tho, too grindy with so much rng.
>>59353527Good game with lots of unskippable cutscenes
It's a repetitive 6/10 game.I got 400 hours between main game and DLC. I probably won't ever replay it because the battle system is so shallow and that's 90% of what you interface.
>>59353527Better than every other mainline game on Switch but still mid
>>59355272Based opinion. DLC made the whole game go down the toilet with repetitive gameplay.
>>59353527I just got it and it's okay so far but the combat system is getting old fast. Also the city isn't fun I much preferred arceus setting and tone.
>>59353527Base game was goodDLC was poop
>>59353527It was aight. For a pokemon game it's average. For a game on it's own detached from pokemon it's a 4/10It was something new, character models looked decent, new megas are always nice. Music was decent. That's about it. The map sucked. The characters are shoved in your face to oftenTo many cutscenes with nothing happening. No way to skip cutscenesThe dlc was shit. If the game was a remake of XY same gameplay but the whole world instead of one city. Could have been peak. But you fucked up with the large city with nothing fucking in it. Yakuza did this on the ps2, you have a city where is the arcades. Where's the minigames? No customisable trainer house. Also speaking of customisation unless you're playing a girl or a faggot there's no good male options, you run like you shit yourself.
>>59353527Should've spent more time polishing PLA than working on this turd.Still laughing at how the cope was that there'd be some massive underground complex to travel and fight in, or that there'd be more than one city (look at the TRAIN, guys!!!) but all of that ended up being wrong.I'm shocked at how bad (visually) most of the new Megas were, too.
I like the game for the $33 I got it for, but I feel like I'd have been let down pretty hard if I bought it at full price. I also picked up Arceus and feel like I'll like it better.
The one hit faints were nice. Overall I liked the battling system.The rogue Pokemon was retarded as FUCK, though. My avatar does not, I repeat, not need to be in danger of anything. Stupid.
>>59355332Are you forgetting the postgame of the main game? Getting AZ's Floette was the worst grind for no reason.
>>59356236As the story progresses, our rank jumped from V to F directly at one point. Therefore in the post game we need to complete 15 royales and make up for the missing ranks in order to obtain Eternal Flower Floette.
>>59357096It makes sense from that point of view but it's still the same as special scans. Just a bunch of needless grinding to pad out the game. It's as if Gamefreak heard the "beat the E4 100 times to get pikablu" rumors and thought that it was actually an excellent idea. They don't even give you anything good on the way there.
>>59353527It never deserved a paid release or any acknowledgement from any age group. It is a scam and a humiliation ritual. Everything for the switch was except for maybe the spinoffs.
>>59353527Didn't buy it, don't regret not buying it.>>59353960>"lost">they're getting 1.0 next monthjumping ship looks way better than buying used
>>59357130it was super quick at least. and free. I was doing 1-2 reward matches per night. but for mega dimension, you have to farm (rng) berries to make (rng) donuts so you can do the (rng) dimensions with (rng) requirements and if you do all of them, you'd get around get 3k, compared to battle zones which were giving me 1k+ per battle AND optional objectives that can give up to 20k
>>59353604You must be a masochist or neetOr both
>>59357516The meta of ZA is AFK'ing.
>>59353527Pokeballs were nerfed so fucking hard that it actively ruined my enjoyment of the game. It took dozens of tries just to get Delibird in one.
How well does the switch 1 version run?
>>59357551bad
>>59357559Same as SV?
>>59357562Not nearly as bad. SV shit the bed when there were a lot of sprites on screen, but there's no real dense grassy areas in ZA.
Big step down from Arceus but it was fine. + Megas were enjoyable for the first time + Staying in one city was a change of pace+ Battle zones were a pretty good idea- The most interesting thing about Arceus was the historical setting which lasted all of one game - Stealth was one was the second most interesting thing in Arceus, not only did they not expand upon it, they nerfed it - A~Z ranking system was interesting but they skip most of it - The city didn't have anything interesting in it - Wild zones were way too small, cramped and had too few Pokemon types- Too much talking - DLC was a thinly veiled shiny hunter with no effort
