time-based mechanics were doable as a child (aside from honey trees since I wasn't allowed to play in the morning) but HGSS phone system was annoying even then. HGSS is pretty much death by a thousand cuts. I like them a lot, but there are lots of small annoyances that add up overtime. Funnily...

oh right, being made with a common engine meant its easily modable:smogthink:...I correct myself, there are 3 reasons to get BDSP.:bat:

This is one of the two reasons I would ever get BDSP (the others being HM Poketch), but for now the FPS Code is enough for me... Such a shame BDSP fails on so many levels despite getting 2 crucial things right, it could have been much more.

Gen 4 does give the impression that the devs struggled with the new hardware a lot (GF isn't known to have the best coders...) the fact that all Gen 4 games are slow (DP especially, it's cruel) is another issue, though thankfully there are codes that unlock FPS, and because this is an older...

I think having a proc would make abilities similar to those seem more important, as it is they often feel negligible Battle Armor having a proc would be really useful so you can actually take notice when it saves you from a critical hit.

Replaying things will generally make you notice flaws more often, even in things you love (in my case I have played Sonic Adventure 2 and Pikmin 2 way too much and the little flaws both games do have become more apparent each time). Stuff that is done for visual flair obviously sticks out, and...

I'll admit the Hop thing was a really bad example, my bad. I still stand by my opinion of asset reusing being very much dependant on context, but clever developers will use it to their advantage mostly

reusing assets is important and should be done... if it makes sense and is done to allocate your resources to more important things 3 GBA Fire Emblems reusing lots of sprites is completly fine and imo is a good call CoD Ghosts taking a complete cutscene from an older game and repurposing it for...

not gonna reply to everything individually (can you even do that in the same post?) but to add to some of the stuff from the recent pages: Mt. Coronet is both great and frustrating at the same time. Great because it's a really neat blueprint for a more expansive landscape design that makes...

I remember seeing the Sunny Form in prerelease media and when I got the game I was curious as to why it seemingly was not present. Cherubi being a honey tree encounter does not help its availability either. And the ability itself is also a mess because they decided to make it a weird gimmick by...

The meloetta post by QuentinQuonce in the other thread made me realize once again how much I dislike battle-only form changes. I can tolerate castform (since the stats are the real issue here) and Minior, but Cherrim, both Darmanitans and Meloetta annoy me to no end, because they waste cool...

I know it was already talked about some years ago, but I still want to bring up changing music (there is a better words for this but it eludes me right now) in Gen V. The musicians are probably the most well-known, but there are more. Some routes have instruments added depending on the season...

Laputa - Castle in the Sky There is like 1 scene in the entire movie that I would change or alter, everything else is amazing It instills such a sense of wonder an escape for me, the entire opening credits scene is a masterpiece of its own, the cozy town and landscape at the beginning are...

The second gym can be tough in nuzlockes, the rest are pretty much a joke. What makes this funny is that there are a decent amount of normal NPCs in XY that can actually pose somewhat of a challenge, especially compared to the leaders

If anything there should be a switch button to alternate between fan or official names, although I am not sure how much work that is, I have no idea how websites work. And the default should be the fan names due to usage Not having an option to switch if there are fundamental differences in...

They seem somehow allergic to majorly altering things I feel. (which really annoys me) We never see complete stat redos despite a lot of mons needing it (Gen 3 stat spread says hi), only small increases of 10 in single stats or maybe an ability gets changed to one that is more fitting. Evolution...

in normal gameplay exp share does its part... but if you are deep into the game and want to use your LV10 mon its not gonna cut it and slow you down, and grinding sessions take too long. I used to just grind up stuff, but even in XY where you can use the cafes it just takes ages... to clarify: I...

I started using hacked Rare Candies and Vitamins in the later parts of my nuzlockes some time ago. It simply saves tons of time when a member dies, as most games were not designed for randomly taking a LV4 Mon from Route 1 and getting him up to like LV30. Time is on short supply so it is just...

Alakazam being a monster in game is less due to its type and more that you can get it at LV16 because trade evos are a stupid mechanic. In GSC it also had the elemental punches. Personally I think they fell off starting in Gen 2, the perception was simply skewed by lots of Psychic type...

I want to praise Gen Vs Itemfinder and its item menus a bit. I really like the idea of the Itemfinder/Dowsing Machine/whatever its called, searching for both normal and hidden items makes exploring more fun. But in Gen 1-3 its really cumbersome, DPP you have to stop to use it (and DPP is...
