ONE CITY
AND I DON'T KNOW WHY
IT DOESN'T EVEN SEEM GAMEFREAK WANTS TO TRY

>>723585202 (OP)
Still better than Digimon's hallway simulator

>>723585274
>hallway simulator
but anon, this IS one big hallway

>>723585202 (OP)
holy pokekino

>>723585274
lol this is the most railroaded pokemon game yet.

See those buildings? You can't go in them.

>>723585335
To be fair, it's mostly jpgs

>>723585202 (OP)
>not shaped like a pokeball
you're right, they don't even try

>>723585386
Kek
Word of advice Pokebros, at least play a better game. You'll be able to appreciate better graphics from a game that came out in 2012.

>hes still mindbroken by "ONE GAME I DONT KNOW WHY, I GOT A PS5 WITH NO GAMES TO BUY"
its been 5 years, just because its still true doesn't mean you need to seethe every day

>>723585202 (OP)
This city is miserable to explore, by the end i was just spamming fast travel, the city is completely dead because aside from a few roof mons, there is not reason to explore

>>723585412
it clearly is thoe

>>723585743
ah yes, the kanto element of having places to go and things to do. truly kanto core.

>>723585202 (OP)
I was going to say that seems like a decent sized city for an open world game but then I saw the numbers, are those the gyms and the city is the entire game?

>>723585915
Yes. Also there are only 2 underground areas and they are miserable.

>see bench i can interact with
>interact with it
>"You can't sit here!"
??????

>>723586060
maybe the game knows you're homeless

>>723585915
Gyms? As in buildings you could go into? Haha that's a bit much for pokemon, isn't it :). No, those are wild areas aka place you can find pokemons.

>>723585202 (OP)
>IT DOESN'T EVEN SEEM GAMEFREAK WANTS TO TRY
cause they don't have to, plenty of poketards will consoom the slop regardless and beg for more shit in their mouths

>>723585716
mind elaborating? because I can't see it

>>723585743
The funny thing is that XY are still better

>>723586060
>during XY's prerelease people were memeing about how you could finally sit down on chairs and benches
>can't do it in ZA
fucking amazing

>>723585743
Surely no one makes that mistake, though. Z-A is clearly labelled as part of the "Legends" series, hence an action RPG without the typical "Pokemon League Challenge" structure. Does no one remember Legends: Arceus?

i wish i could go back to when...
no nevermind the franchise always sucked one way or the other no matter how far back you go

>>723585581
Shits itself after you leave the slums

>>723585202 (OP)
what do you mean
what the fuck do you mean, are you fucking serious? this is the entire map? the game is one fucking city block?

>>723585581
Fuck, Sleeping Dogs blew me the fuck away when I first played it just by how detailed the interiors of buildings looked from the street.
You could tell it was just layered images, but it really did create such a nice effect at making it look like a modeled interior.

I could see the trick, but the fact that they actually put in the effort to perform the trick is what I really enjoyed.
Fuck it, you know what? It's been years since I've had a POHK BUN, I'm gonna go be a WHO'H MAN.

Thanks for the recommendation champ, I've been wondering what to play today.

>>723586678
i'll cut them some slack, as long as the city is well expanded they can make it work, isn't resident evil 7 all a single residence? and that game managed to be quite good

>>723586540
ah, i see
it would have been better without area 7

>>723585743
still has too much kanto pandering

>>723586850
Those aren't even remotely comparable games. survival horror works in tight spaces, a monster catcher-battler game fucking doesn't make any sense. are they squishing hundreds of pokemon into a fucking 10 mile radius?

>>723586619
You mean the game that still had turn-based combat with a different way to handle turn priority?

>>723585202 (OP)
>This shit is gamefreak's and nintendo's beast attempt at beating Palworld

I still cant get over how they made the loansharks as good guys

>>723586678
>>723585202 (OP)
If it was a massive open field you retards would be complaining about it being unnecessarily big and empty, it's all so tiresome.

>>723587606
Yeah, instead it's small and equally empty.

>>723587606
I was expecting rural or cave areas or something surrounding the city and you'd be constantly going between them, like the village hq in LA.

I did not expect them to just put designated catching streets throughout the city it's fucking stupid.

>>723587546
they are shitendo corpofag's self insert

>>723587537
>spinoff that started development before palslop was even thought of
Sure snoysisters, your crafting game is really important

>>723585385
Retarded abused cucks will still screech “but but…. Im having fun with it…..”

Fun is the nintendo word. They can't explain why their dogshit is supposed to be good, so the braindead retards default to "it's fun", "i'm having fun".

>>723587809
>designated catching streets
pokemon legends india

>>723587856
>Palworld
>Snoy
What?

>>723588172
It's the experiencer vs observer effect. People playing a game can say it's fun and keyboard warriors will look at videos going "It's bad because of this. Played it? No I don't play games."

>>723587856
Important enough to make nintendo and pokefags shit themselves.

>>723588337
Sony owns the Palworld merchandise company (it's not making a profit)

>>723588172
It has good game feel
I enjoy the gameplay loop
It’s fun
It makes me feel like a Pokemon trainer

>>723588341
Yeah no, i've played their so called "fun" games and ended up bored out of my fucking mind. I tolerated odyssey up to after the desert world.

>>723587809
do the pokemons in the city atleast fit the places you catch them in?
can you catch slurpuffs in bakeries? what about going into a dark alley and finding a pack of zoruas fighting off a garbodor? is there a construction site full of rock and fighting types? a green garden dedicated to plant and bugs? abandoned buildings with ghost types?
please don't tell me it's all concrete and LED lights

>>723588428
But they don't own the game, so I'm confused on how palword is a snoy game, when the game was popular you couldn't even play it on a playstation

>>723585274
Pokefags lost

>>723586736
If you have it on steam don't forget the free HD upgrade
https://store.steampowered.com/app/202181/Sleeping_Dogs__High_Resolution_Texture_Pack/
Also prepare yourself for button mashing through 50 million unlocks once you finish the first few story missions, shits dumb

>>723588476
All the designated catching streets are concrete, with some grass here and there.

>>723588476
>construction sites, gardens, abandoned buildings
see, you're using that imagination thing. No, it's all the same building copypasted over and over.

>>723588563
>number of user ratings
start weaving baskets anon, the pokefags are gonna cherrypick like there's no tomorrow

>>723588464
So what you're saying is that you don't like good video games

>>723588172
i trust the word of people who play the game, not the people who just look at it

>>723585202 (OP)
is that hte full map of the game?

>>723588476
For the most part yeah.

>>723588563
OH NO NO NO

>>723588705
lmao, true.

>>723588172

This retard doesn't know how to have fun LMFAO

>>723585202 (OP)
i wouldn't mind a game the size of a city.
but i expect being able to enter most of the buildings and sewers.
I also expect a high level of graphical detail.
Which we do not have at all.

>>723588889
For you? 41%

>>723585202 (OP)
Nips will buy it regardless.

>>723585202 (OP)
everything multi billion dollar companies do even if it looks like shit is on purpose.
ever heard of 15 minute cities?
Nintendo and Gamefreak are pro SDGs
this game will reach hundred millions of kids and kids are easily programmable into thinking these plans are ok, normal even, until there is no way back from a dystopian new world order

>>723588337
Don't bother, it's probably the guy who was buckbrocken by palworld, he calls everyone snoys in his regularly scheduled seethe threads.

as a yakuzafag that has enjoyed kamurocho in every single game of the franchise i can say there's nothing wrong with a small map

>>723588824
well i tend to have more fun playing palworld
the only kind of fun i get from pokemon is watching furry porn and that's just because they're offmodel fuzzy cwitters

>>723589212
Put down the quill blackbeard. This is dogshit.

>>723585202 (OP)
Is the map bigger than GTA 3 (PlayStation 2, 2001)?

>>723585274
pokemon killed and buried Digimon 20 years ago

So are(is? Do they even do the dual release thing anymore?) Sword and Shield good?

People keep comparing this one to another game with Legends in its name and Scarlet and Violet. I didn't even know those had come out. Last pokegame I'd heard of at all was SnS.

>>723589241
Isn't it about time for another thread?

As opposed to

why are you retards incapable of the most basic parody

>>723585202 (OP)
they should make GTA except pokemon
have color gangs waging war between blocks
have people illegally roiding up their pokemon
dog fighting rings
human trafficking
have some cops plant rare candies in the MC's car and get him sent to prison
it'd be realy funny. maybe the palworld folks should do it.

Why did Nintendo okay the project?

>>723589767
Case in point.

>>723589917
eh, sounds fun but i don't see the idea, i'd like a true sandbox MMORPG focused on pokemon but the scope would be too big
the one thing i'll grant pokemon is that their designs are better than palworld, if only because they have elements that make sense on how they're designed
but if palworld tried to make their critters have too much logic behind them they'd probably get a cease and desist so i can see why they didn't do it, i still like their blobs

>>723590156

50% of 3rd party pokemon stuff is actually quite good like the last snap games, a shame this wasn't the case

does the whole game take place in that gay city

>>723587606
>you're complaining it's too small? OBVIOUSLY THAT MEANS YOU WANT A GIANT OPEN FIELD

>>723590424
the intro doesn't

>>723585202 (OP)
they don't have to, they perfected job's niggercattle fanatical consumers.
they can shit out whatever slop and they will eat it with gusto.
never forget pokemon is the HIGHEST GROSSING FRANCHISE IN THE FUCKING WORLD
the budget and quality of their games should be the best, but alas, the greed

small fundraised indie studio passion project

>>723586678
There are also effectively no interiors. This is the whole game.

>>723587856
>been in development for YEARS
>this is the best gf can spit out

How much bigger is it compared to the 3DS version of that city? Because it doesn't look that much bigger considering it's meant to be an ENTIRE game made like 12 years later on much better hardware.

>>723585202 (OP)
3000 years on Paint

>>723585202 (OP)
That's the entire game lmao? Chinese gachas add areas like this every 6 weeks

>>723590885
the wasteland somehow looks more desolate now

>>723585385
Not true when snap 1 and 2 exist

>>723590835
That's what happens when you don't use UE assets and AI trained on pokemon and actually develop a game

I just don't fucking understand why pokemon graphics is so shit, I wish pokemon game development is outsourced to a company that cares.

>>723590993
>Chinese gachas add areas like this every 6 weeks
Because they have to, or no-one would play their F2P games.

>>723591397
no retard, it's when you develop a game with 5 bucks like the leaks confirmed even when you have literal billions at your disposal, and let old geezers that don't know how to develop 3d games be in charge

>>723591595
Well, that seems to be the problem with this game, given they've got an assured fan base that will eat anything they vomit out

>>723591595
Yes anon you've cracked the case, people only play games when they like them. Poketards aren't people though, they're just golems

I heard the city is one big model, is it their game engine optimization at work that combines all the mesh together?

>>723585274
Really setting the bar high with that one

all the money reserved for the game went to funding lawsuits against palworld

>>723590264
>Game Freak
>third-party

>>723589424
Okay was it THAT bad or do you all just assume I'm shitposting or something?

>>723591639
You get a game that lasts more than 5 hours and doesn't look like absolute realistic ass?
Huh maybe more games should drop their budgets and do some work then.

>>723590869
You can go around the perimeter in 6 minutes

>>723592427
Yes.
They're third party developers.
What did you think they were?

>>723588341
I played it when it leaked and it was ultra boring garbage. Althought i can really understand legit manchild having a good time since it fuels nostalgia perfectly.

>>723588705
amazing, snoy once again stealing an old meme invented to mock their side. even your memes are ports

>>723589837
>Parody writers that can't count syllables
You'd be perfect for the musical.

I think Gamefreak isn't actually good at developing games but is good at being an "idea" company.

>>723592537
If I had my 3DS to hand I'd boot it up since I'm sure it takes like 2 or 3 minutes in X and Y. So not that great really.

>>723592819
The fuck does that even mean?

>>723585202 (OP)
YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THEY'RE LEAVING THE GOOD STUFF FOR THE DLC PLEASE STOP

>>723593371
It means he doesn't actually like video games and can't comprehend why and how someone can like a game where you do things.

>>723593371
Pokefags will buy everything pokemon related because nostalgia

>>723590885
sides=gone

>>723585743
>actual game structure is now kanto pandering
obviously it wasn't the kanto starters they give you for free not at all

>>723586060
That bench isn't for your kind. Keep on walkin', trainer

>>723593602
Still too complicated. Simplify it further so I can understand.

>>723586540
I just lost it

>>723593371
The gameplay loop is way too easy that i don't even need to use regular pokemon abilities. I just need whatever does damage and spam it on cooldown wich removes any scent of strategy. The bosses are the only alright thing since you actually have to try and dodge there but they're way too forgiving anyway to being considered any threat.
On top of that the city looks awful af like legit gmod tier map design.

Did you rike it?

>>723593876
You haven't actually played the game, have you.

>>723585202 (OP)
lol it reminds me of the city on Blue Garden from the Eden's Zero video game, is it the arr-rook-same-syndrom like the royal capitals of isekai anime?

>>723586850
Re7 isnt a single residence.
Its the residence, the swamp surrounding it and the mine nearby.

FUCKING Re7 covers more ground than pokemon ZA

723594049
No more (You) for baiting faggots like you.

>>723588341
I am currently playing and it's fun to complete each wild area and do some of the fights. Snoy fags complaining about the graphics is what is killing the industry because when they actually add graphics, their PC can't run it.
It's also very easy to tell that they have only watched the first 30 minutes of the game from some streamer because they have no fucking clue about mid to end game.

>>723585202 (OP)
this is smaller than kanto. nintendo is FINISHED

>>723594696
>fun
he said the nintendo word

>>723585202 (OP)
Why is it that games like Spider-Man or GTA can get away with taking place in just a city and no one cares, but Pokemon tries to do it and suddenly it's the end of the world?

>>723595012
>game about going into an adventure journey
>set it in a tiny city

>>723585202 (OP)
FULLY MODELED

>>723595128
It's a spinoff.

>>723595012
why is it that nintencultists call those games movie games but are just fine with an inferior version made of the same four buildings copy pasted over and over?

>>723591845
Yes. They're lazy fucks that don't want to implement culling, so bake it all into one massive object, then bake in about 1 dozen pngs and it's good to go for the tendies. It's fucking funny too because I'm pretty sure they don't have the awareness of sense to even feel the 60fps.

>>723595187
>IT'S A SPINOOOOOOOOOOOF
>100$+tip and it comes with your dick cage

>>723585202 (OP)
Should they have made a massive empty open world? Having a small city full of interesting stuff seems great to me.

>>723595220
>/v/ is one person

>>723595312
I don't see why a spinoff series they already verified people enjoyed shouldn't be allowed to be sold at the cost of a video game.

>>723595348
instead they made a small city that's equally empty. get the fuck outta here with that cope, nintencultist.

>>723595460
I haven't even played the game, nigga. The concept of a pokemon game set in a city seems fine though.

>>723595012
if you have to ask you won't understand the answer

>>723595534
Because the answer is
>it's the exact same shit, but worse in every single way
but you can't admit that nintendo released fucking dogshit.

>>723585202 (OP)
The game is fun. Tutorial is a bit too long and doesn't actually teach you everything you need to know tho.

>>723595648
>nintendo word again

>>723595926
ZA has no story the plot is complete Arcaninesshit

>>723586060
Doesn't the player character have a sitting animation? That seems like a basic thing they could add for more atmosphere. But knowing Game Freak, I'm sure that behind the scenes there was some bug involved with it that couldn't be fixed.

>could have gotten pokemon battle city
>ended up with a schizophrenic mess instead
I hate them so fucking much

Why cant I spam Shadow Ball? Isnt this supposed to be real time?

>>723585202 (OP)
How long is the game anyway? Because it looks like you can explore everything in ~2 hours
Is it like Yakuza where theres 500 cutscenes and minigames to bloat out playtime?

Wow, fucking imagine that.

Why is the trainer in the battle?
Theres no way you could outrun a LV5 pokemon so this kills my immersion

>Game completely skips Rank U and all the way up to G and makes you Rank F for story reasons
Why call it AZ if you DON'T ACTUALLY GO THROUGH ALL THE RANKS

>>723596368
>i'm losing the argument so i'll namefag the other guy as if that'd prove my point
still not admitting that you wouldn't understand it

These fights would be more fun if they were doubles where you can choose what mon you want to control and what mon is an AI.

>>723596646
are you implying that I know the names of all namefags?
i'm not that retarded, but i still understand why in gta and spider-man is ok to have a single city as a map and it's not ok on za
Do you understand why?

>>723596092
Doesn't matter. The visual difference is negligible at best imo. Just pirate whichever one you want. The people who whine about that sort of thing didn't even play the original in the first place.

>>723596218
For giving you a better battle city?

>>723595128
>the game is about restoring a city and overcoming differences
When will you fags learn to do basic research?

>>723597240
Bro........

>>723585743
too much kanto pandering
get rid of intersections, the whole game should be a straight road
And remove the ability to choose what attack your pokemon uses, the only attack should be tackle

>>723596759
Just spam revives, you must have like 50 on you.

>>723585581
You just unlocked an old memory. I played just 4 hours of this game and it was amazing. I will go now and reinstall it.

>>723596092
nta but from what I remember
Original:
>better lighting (lights/lightning) neon lights look sharper/brighter and lightning lights up the sky more
>better overall texture details
>dlc is paced better (you don't get all the great gear as soon as you start the game)
Definitive:
>more foot traffic and vehicle traffic (original felt pretty scarce/definitive feels more populated)
>overhauled weather system (especially morning fog)
>more environmental damage and upgraded physics
>neon lights have animation now which adds some nice scenery

They're both pretty close to each other with some pros and cons for each. You can't really go wrong with either, I'd say

>>723596287
In 3 hours you complete the handholding tutorial if that's what you asking.

>IT DOESN'T EVEN SEEM GAMEFREAK WANTS TO TRY

They don't.

>>723585202 (OP)
I earnestly want to know what is going on in Gamefreak. Did they just think
>Welp Legends Arceus was perfect, there's no way to improve or iterate on this design, guess we need to reinvent the wheel!
All anyone wanted was LA but with more and slightly refined, that's all. They had the bones of a good game and abandoned it for pseudo-action combat, which I guess took so much development time .

the only good thing about this game is the crossdressing, they really nailed it.
hopefully we will see this return in the mainline Pokémon games.

Hello?

>>723596721
Majority of people don't actually understand how rhyming works. If you've ever seen one of those threads where they try to imitate the witch from Banjo-Kazooie, you'd know this already.

>>723585202 (OP)
(It starts with)
One mesh, I don't know why
It doesn't even matter, GameFreak won't try
Keep that in mind, they designed this map
To be loaded at all times

(All I know)
RAM is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the framerate just swings
Watch it count down to the end of the game
The clock ticks frames away

(It's not Unreal)
It's not Unreal, looks like effort's too low
Watch into stores, not past the window
It's just one city, I didn't even know
I wasted it all, 70 bucks gone

(My bucks gone)
They kept everything inside and even through they tried
It's all a wet fart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when

They tried so hard and got so far
But in the end, the gameplay's even flatter
Explore it all, you'll find fuck all
But in the end, the gameplay's even flatter

>>723597853
I guess for 2 reasons
> 1. It's not an issue of budget? Pokemon's problems are fundamental design and implementation problems. My point was with the same budget they could have just built on the solid Legends Arceus formula, and add the stuff that everyone wanted from the first game.
> 2. Say what you like about Nintendo, and I've said a lot, but they do make objectively high-quality games and don't skimp on the resources. I literally can't imagine what a Pokémon game with the same kind of money and time put into it as Mario Odyssey, BOTW, or even a lower-tier game like Kart World. So it annoys me that Pokémon is trapped in the GameFreak jail, where they either don't give a shit or are so incompetent at every level of development that they can't deliver anything good.

>>723595772
I liked catching a team of Alphas and ev training my Pokemon and playing the ranked online mode with them.

>>723598347

GF very much does not give a shit. They know they can half ass every game and still break records, so why try?

>It's not Unreal
Got me

>>723598347
People need to remember Nintendo has tried to get Game Freak to use more professional studios for game development, and GF has refused. For them, it's probably for the best anyways since they get the most profits from spending the least amount of money they can.

Game Freak have truly outdone themselves with this entry into the franchise. I just can’t believe how alive and fully realised the world feels. Finally, their years of world building have come together to create the perfect Pokemon Project. Exploring those beautiful vistas we always imagined as children with our Pokemon, every building bustling with NPCs, the architecture unique, with every nook and cranny feeling lived in. Wow, my friends. Game Freak have created with the Pokemon IP (the biggest franchise in the world at this point) a truly perfect video game. Just WOW!

>>723598881
If this were a screenshot from a 20 year old game you guys would call it soul

>>723586060
During the lengthy tutorial you can't sit on them, after the long ass tutorial is done you can sit on them to advance time or just to let your party out so they can fuck around while you sit.

>>723589398
and the world suffered since

>>723598996
20 years ago looking like that would have still been outdated

>>723598881
this looks like cs1.6

Can you play as a gurl but still have girl Urbain as a rival or whatever?

>>723598996
Right, but it’s not a 20 year old game.

For a pirated game, I'm enjoying it. But it's just so cheap, this is a $20 indie game with a multi-billion dollar producer. My biggest complaint is the total lack of variety to the city, one big city is a fun idea but it's literally all the same rooftops and ladders, I feel like I'm going cross-eyed trying to keep track of what I've explored because it all looks so similar.

>>723598996
That looks like something a single indie dev could rush out in a week with Unity nowadays.

>>723597970
The game suffers pop ins for everything that's not the buildings so it worked in that sense lmao.

>>723585202 (OP)
Wait you telling me the game was just one whole city? No desert biome, tundra and diving cave?

>>723585274
>>723585385
probably more railroaded than pokemon snap from N64 I have not played the game btw

>>723598996
That is an insult for games released in 2005 like DMC3 and GoW both of which look infinitely better.

>>723598996
bro even in 2005 this would have looked like shit, fucking san andreas was open world with more than one city and it still had more building variety than flat texture blocks

>>723599316
So, no?

>>723585202 (OP)
Why the fuck would they do that?

>but the verticality!
>rooftops are just elevated floor
>you literally just climb ladders or take teleporters to move up to them
>platforming? uh you can roll off roofs onto these scaffoldings for a few items I guess
>there's also a tiny sewer way late into the game, see guys it's not always the same thing!

>>723598996
Anon... I'm so sorry but... 20 years ago was 2005...

The next pokemon game will be a retooling of that scrapped ad system where you'd shout mcdonalds to skip the ad. You just shout "Pokemon!" and Pikachu and all your other pokemon friends jump for joy along with you!

>>723599668
please drink verification can

>>723599668
>Please insert 1 dollar to keep playing

>>723599668
The next Pokemon game only takes place in Pallet Town but every five seconds it flashes an image of Charizard on screen.

>>723596205
You only can't sit on the benches when you're still in the tutorial, you can use them to pass time afterwards.

>>723585202 (OP)
How this shitheap of map is smaller than vice city?

>>723599810
>>723600060
>>723600428
How minimalist can we get this? I'm envisioning a five year plan where the endgame is either:
A) The game doesn't actually exist, it's more a word of mouth thing, or a conceptual parasite a la language itself as William S. Burroughs described it
or
B) Official Pokemon Heroin with Pikachu and Eevee variants

>>723585581
>Get on motorbike
>Switch the radio to Eminence Front
>Go buy pork bun, because I'm not a true man without it
>Go to some back alley and kung-fu the living fuck out of like 15 gangsters
Such a fun game

>>723585202 (OP)
How much more expensive is ZA compared to legends arceus?

>>723601545
$40 extra buckaroonies if you want the DLC they shaved off of it as well. Otherwise $10 more.

>>723601312
Is a JPG of a 3D model Charizard, the gameplay is posting how good it is on an anonymous internet forum while ignoring any criticism and defending your 70 dollar JPG image of Charizard, day 1 DLC is the JPG images of mega Charizard X and Y (sold separately 30 dollars each).

You can run across the entire city in 90 seconds. Not kidding.

>>723596926
You don't, understand one iota

>>723585274
>o-other tribe!

>>723601983
Now you know why they have an irrational hatred of Nintendo.

>bought Kirby Forgotten Land instead of this
dodged a bullet there, geez

>>723585202 (OP)
You beat the last gym and the city gates open and you have access to every single Pokemon region at once with updated graphics right?!
