    To what I read, they are "below par" when only picked individually. But they synergise well. And it's survival genre. Anything more than that and the positive reviews would make me think of other problems external to the game itself that I can't think how to say it. Even my senpai are having fun...

    Ok, almost, that slipped off my mind. MHSt2 has the problem of locked continuity that you need to know what's going on with MHSt1 to know who some people you work with first though, and the one part you're blamed for being railroaded outside your choices. But it's true that MHSt2 was already...

    The same argument for Scarlet Violet can be levied for Palworld too here, so much that the "Quit Having Fun" comic thrown since Sword Shield era are haunting them today. Both are "buggy, but fun" with the difference that SV is fully released AAA game while PW is early access. A significant...

    First of all, this video debunks the misinformations from both sides. To quote someone, TL;DW: For the most part, the models seem to be referenced off of Pokemon models, but not actually directly modified from them. Even the most similar, azurobe, is unlikely to be actually stolen. And even...

    By white rabbit Scorbunny's pants, are you saying that Disney ripped off G Meowth? No way! :pika: Jokes aside, this longboi must be protected.

    To me it sounds just like standard corporate statement that translates to "we get it, stop flooding our DM" and radiates "maaaaaybe" energy.

    Uhh, a modder did, and swiftly got DMCA'd. Tbf that's quite brain-dead decision to make that and charge in Patreon subs.

    palworld

    For references, IGN drops 8 on it. While normally it is IGN, the commenters actually finds it to be fair. It is still needing some polish and depth, but the gameplay itself is deemed to be very engaging and fun. The lack of mention that Pal Sphere works only on living mon and not swirly eyes...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    I didn't say it's parody to Pokémon. I said it's satirising the whole Mon genre and tropes, which Pokémon happens to monopolise, be it affectionately or deconstructively (it's looking like both as there are consequences if you do indulge in those things). They don't need explicit confirmation to...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    Here's my other take, and I'm atheist from Arceus by now. Palworld satirises not just Pokémon, but the Mon genre as a whole and its values (love your partner, that kind of thing), so they take the representative artstyle and design philosophy. They butcher the genre to mockery in such audacious...

    (Little) Things that annoy you in Pokémon

    I've thought we can avoid this discussion in OI of all places but.... I have a lot of take and I may get myself hunted as heretic by saying all these, but I'll just drop one take: Honestly, I'd say let the companies sort it out, I'm curious if Nintendo will sue them and if they will win or...

    Yeah, Phione's status is... complicated, to say at least. https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Phione_(Pokémon)#Mythical_status TPC just can't seem to make up their mind with their announcements and stuffs, it's actually funny to look at.

    Regardless, I feel like imagining guys in GF are laughing their asses off over people having this semantic debate. Likely not the first time since Cosmog and Type: Null came into existence. :psysly:

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    Slaking has a very limiting "ability" that prevents it from being effective. Truant completely obliterates its viability and makes it too unconventional to not be called gimmick Pokémon. You can argue Regigigas too, but Regigigas itself is gimmick Legendary Pokémon, making itself not...

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    Due to them being still in fanmade term territory, I think for sake of semantic convenience, I'll vote for it being "pseudo legendary". Pseudo-pseudo legendary if one will. Not the first time for GF to break their pattern. At worst, if I'm to take the "official concept" tightly I'll put it in...

    SPOILERS! Scarlet & Violet Leaks Thread - Data/Mechanics

    It's not really. That's not implied by the name "pseudo legendary" In Japanese, it's even just called "600 group". Pseudo legendary/ 600 group has always been fanmade term. Unlike Eeveelution, it's not made canon (and I don't recall them using ブイズ Vees for them in Japanese, usually just...
