either autistic legitimely or stuck up chicks

You're saying that like it's a bad thing

My mum chucked my gameboy out the window because I brought it to school once. I had just finished Crash Bandicoot :/

Was it a Gameboy Light or Colour by any chance?
Either way, ouch
I only ever played Crash Bandicoot on my friends' PS , and never on a Gameboy

 

[MWPP]

Working IRL and in the background.

In other words- from home but genuinely working?

 

[Agent93]

So you only like gen 1?

I haven't played mainline titles since gen 3 (which I didn't finish IIRC).

What are you talking about?

 

[Golumless]

What are you talking about?

Only plays mystery dungeon and rom hacks.

 

[TJASTA]

Yeah but Gen 3 had the peak starters, the peak storyline, peak legendaries (Rayquaza is a boss), peak gyms and the best Elite 4/Champion.

but it started nolgastic baiting

Why y'all sleeping on Digimon?

Go isn't a mainline title. More a random side chore.

Gameboy advance around 2003/04. The dude had about 10 or 15 tamagotchis and would bring like 2 or 3 each day.

I've been on site as well. We're in the beginnings of a massive IT refit project and the company I work for has made it extremely hard to get more staff on to cover the load.

Aww yep. IT at both my workplaces have been been bombarded too. I still miss the motherland though!

Genuinely working. Hard to drive a van to Geelong while on my couch.

 

[Matera92]

Unlucky, you'll be akin to an interred salmon

Who are you calling interred?

If driverless cars are already a thing, driverless vans will soon follow

What do you hate about it? The game is a bit streamlined, but once I got past the first few gyms I'm enjoying it.

Unlike most I don't actually like the free roam area, I feel like it's a bit of a cheap way to level up/catch strong Pokemon. If the game was a bit more MMORPG-esque it would be fun but that's about it.

I'm trying to pinpoint what X&Y had that the subsequent two haven't had, as I loved X&Y like the classics.

I think honestly for the next Gen they need to pair back a lot of this flashy stuff like Mega-mon, Z-moves, etc. I think ultra evolution or whatever it's called was fine, add enough Mon to have 1000, have all of them in the game but have a multi-region game where you could have 250-300 of them in each region that unlocks, have a sliding scale of levels that unlock as you beat each Elite 4. Surely that's in their capability and would sell like wild.

It was just so linear and so easy. Gym to gym to gym to gym.
No team rocket bases or anything like that, no side story at all.

Very bland.

Back in my day there was no Pokemon, only tamagotchi.

Tamagotchis were released in 96 or 97
Pokemon was out in 96 or 98.

Pokemon was around in your day.

Oh absolutely bland, I thought we were talking the Mon themselves. And I thought the Gyms themselves have been pretty cool too with the environment design pretty cool. The Fairy Forest is fun.

Oh the Pokemon themselves are whatever.

Gyms were an improvement over some in the past. But I miss the puzzles.

If you want a puzzle, play Harvey Manfrenjensenden in Chess

So? FR/LG were a nice upgrade.

 

[TJASTA]

So? FR/LG were a nice upgrade.

it started a lazy and bad precedent of 'let's chuck some gen 1 s**t into the generation in an attempt to appeal to 'fans' who stop caring about pokemon in 2001'.

Yet here you are.

He's trying to make the effort to get his posts up so he doesn't miss out on All SFA again.
