    20:32 A new gameplay element would definitely be nice. The plant food mechanic in the second game was one of its best parts. However, gimmicks are not the way to go. I think the reason there are so many bad games these days is because they focus on gimmicks, the game itself looks kinda gimmicky. A strong foundation and good core gameplay and well-thoughtout user exeprience is what truly makes a game good.

    Great video! I’m glad you didn’t stick with the stereotypical “EA bad, Popcap Good” thingy, and for the most part, I can agree with most of the points in this video! Although I was surprised in 9:26 when you said you didn’t like the zombies, those were actually my favourite part of PvZ2, because of all their wacky abilities. If you’re talking about their faces and bodies looking the same, that’s understandable, but I think that was something the devs had to do to make sure they don’t clog up storage with unique zombie templates for each zombie. PvZ 1 could do it because of the game being much smaller, but I can see where you’re coming from.

    Plants Vs zombies Adventures was and still is one of my favorites games, i played it when it came out an extremely long time ago and it was super fun.
    Awesome returning and new plants, cool new zombies, the roadtrip maps and levels were great (U of Z, Park N Perish, Sweaty Palms, Cadavern Cavern etc)... but best of all was the music, i still remember and listen to it to this day, makes me nostalgic.
    There were also PvP modes like them attacking your house or you attacking them; with Zombies... so you could play as them pretty much.
    I'm glad many PVZAD plants like Bambooshoot, Fire Peashooter and Chilly Pepper were added into newer games but come on Beeshooter, Sweet Pea, Popcorn and Asparagus deserve to shine as well.
    Zombies like Impostor, Conga Line Dancer (and their backups), Ice Block zombie, Rocket Scientist, The smoking Gas Can Zombie, Mall Cop Zombie, The one that has like a million hats... that one patriot girl with the big arm also deserve to be added at least to PVZ 2... apparently Barrel Zombie from pvz adventures was supposed to be on a Dark Ages expansion of PVZ 2 but for some reason was never added so F.
    The waiting system for the plants wasnt even that bad cause it made you experience everything the game has to offer at a nice pace instead of rushing it.. you had to pick and choose which plants you wanted to grow and how long it would take, and to get premium plants (Power Flower, Ice Queen Pea, Sweet Pea, Hard Nut, Beetboxer etc) sure you could buy them but you could also get the red gems just playing events so patience rewarded again
    There were many alternate powerups like making your plants stronger for a few seconds for a some sun, freezing one zombie in exchange for some sun, freezing all zombies, replacing your lost lawmowers, boosting all your plants for a few seconds, being able to use a glove to MOVE your plants around! But ofc you could only pick one of these powers per level and they would also take time to recharge to get them.
    Anywho i know im going on a long rant, but I'm glad someone talked about one of my favorite games, no one really talks about Plants vs zombies adventures mostly cause they never played it themselves and when they do talk about it, its super short as seen here but still in very glad when people do talk about this game.

    Classic PvZ is a timeless masterpiece that everyone love. But I always prefer the 2nd game. Fast pace gameplay, plant food making plants do super move, variety of zombies with unique ability, level with objectives making the levels feels unique and more world. 7:58 I prefer the new updated art style, they look much cleaner and has more animation without going overboard.
    PvZ2 can be very chaotic and hard, thus most people will think this game is P2W. I beat the adventures without spending any money and have so much fun.
    Nowadays, PvZ2 feels more like a bad mobile game with the plant leveling system and seedium plants that force you to grind them. There's also 2 extra mode (arena and penny pursuit) that requires high level of strong plant to compete.

    Great video, you completely blew my expectations by not going for tbe usual "ea bad popcap good" like all those other pvz videos. I agreed with most of your rankings.
    Pvz2 is never given enough credit for what it is, it definitely deserves to have the same ranking as the original. It is In no way whatsoever pay to win, as a lot of the outsiders of the pvz communtiny have been led to believe.
    While its still being updated, its recent updates can be good but a lot of the content and systems added are bad and unpolished, such as the new janky plants and the addition of levelling and seedpackets, along with the removal of things such as match minigame, world, extra animations for plants, treasure yetis and some banger soundtracks.
    But just play mods such as pvz2: reflourished and altverz, they are easy to install and just incredible, adding new plants, cosmetics, zombies and worlds that feel so official. Theres so much love and effort poured into them.
    They also do other things such as removing the paywall for all premiums.
    Imo garden warfare 2 easily deserved an S tier alongside its tower defence counterparts. Gw1 and pvz heroes deserved an A, battle for neighbourville deserved a C and pvz3 should be D.

    Alright, as a Chinese I'm gonna try to explain the abomination that is PVZ Journey to the West, so basically, Journey to the West is like this extremely popular and influential classic Chinese novels published in the 16th century, and Popcap China thought it might be a good idea to combine this novel with PVZ in order to introduce the franchise to a wider audience, so this shit got created. Also, additional information, PVZ is really fucking big in china, especially back in the glory days of PVZ, i don't know why but chinese gamers are really obsessed with PVZ, to the point that they create frame prefect PhD level strategies and tactics for the endless mode and create these custom mod that makes dark souls looks like kirby. Yeah and also there are shit tons of PVZ comics, toys, plush, and many other kinds of merch (mostly made for kids). It's fucking insane!

    You know, in my opinion BFN is not that bad of a game. I love the art style and the maps are good. I do find that it can get boring to have just the same olants and zombies with no variants, but i don't hate it for that. As you said, the game should got more updates to make it better, but covid ruined it saddly. Apart for this, i really enjoied the video, i love gw2 and pvz and pvz2 and the games are great, and the fact that you ranked obscure PvZ titles is great! That rabbit hole is infinite, there is so much. Great video!!!

    @ChiefSuperIntendedBacon Год назад +4

    I actually agree with most of the rankings here. You're reasonings are well thought out and I love how you think that Pvz2 and 1 are on the same level.
    But there are the games that I straight up don't agree, BFN and PvZ3.
    BFN - While it is the worst shooter game, no doubt about that,I think you missed a lot positive aspects about the game and just focused on hating the game cause you don't like it. Stuff like the Hud. Yes it looks more "liveless" but it gives SO much more information than the previous games.(Like when you will start regenerating hp, how overheated you're weapon is on classes like All-Star or giving you exact seconds to when you can use you're ability again). While I don't like most of the redesigns I think the graphics aren't necessarily bad looking expecially the shading and the artstyle which gives me bit of tf2 vibes, also they've done ten times better job on cosmetics than GW2. The upgrades system while, not as good as variants, I think is still a preety good alternative, most of them are at least useful and can help make classes stand out and even make you're own subclasses. Thanks to the upgrades it also feels a lot more fun and easier to level up characters than in GW2, where you had to tediously play the same class for hours just to max out one variant. BFN is definitely not a prefect game or maybe even a "good" one but you CAN see things that they at least wanted to improve, and by the end of the game lifecycle it actually started looking good. It definitely deserves a B or at least a C it's just not THAT bad, the worst thing it does is probably just existing.
    As to PvZ3 - I'm very surprised that you even think the game is "good" for what it is. At least for me this game, if it even will come out, will just destroy this franchise, or what's left of it. This game just adds so many things that actively makes the game worse. Stuff like the power ups which could have been plants that you could use, the life system to make sure players come back, removing plant food, buying cutscenes, even the town making aspect, while it's actually preety good, it's just a blatant copy of other mobile games. And the elephant in the room, you can't choose you're own plants, it's just makes the game more boring. You can like a certain plant or a combo but no you have obey the game and play with plants that you don't want to. The formula is still there and it's fine but the game is so boring and easy. The levels almost always feel the same and there are maybe like 4 diffrent zombies in the entire game, there are no special levels or condition like in previous games. The worst thing is that the game can make good things, like the levels with only squashes or the landscaper that takes you're plant spaces away but they almost never use it.
    In my opinion this game is just worse in every aspect than PvZ2 and doesn't feel like an evolution (BFN at least improved some stuff and had a singleplayer campaign) but a typical mobile game. The game may not be bad or unpolished but if this game is PvZ's last shot at redemption I feel it's better just to kill this game before it can do any harm. So putting this game next to GW1 and Heroes is in my opinion a disgrace.
    Sorry for a bit of a rant at the end but I want emphasise my opinion on the subject and also thanks to anyone who actually read this all.

    In pvz 2, the newer plants are pretty busted and make the world plants basically obsolete. Also, the levels are pretty unbalanced. You can easily destroy the zombies without any effort because of the levels. They should have never added those levels in the update. Also, they should have kept the post-zombot levels in the game(They sometimes appear as challenges). Fortunately these issues are sufficiently fixed in mods.

    • @peckypork
      @peckypork Год назад +5

      In defence of pvz2, most players would’ve already finished the main campaign by now, so pop cap is focusing on the other 2 game mode and thus newer plants are made with their difficulty in mind.
      Plant Levels are hardly a necessity since the only time you’ll be forced to level them up is at the introduction I.e., levelling up wallnut. Even before plant levels were a thing, the most difficult levels in pvz2 were already beatable, with decent strategy of course since plz at its root is a strategy game.
      Pvz2 isn’t a completely irredeemable game, and I’m saying this as someone who’s played the early early alphas of it

    watching zackscottgames during the peak of the first Garden Warfare brought back a ton of good memories- that was like late 2013-2014, I remember when 2 free dlc characters for a promotion of a drink or something were added to the game, one of them being the berry pea shooter which was just way to good that they had to nerf it, that brought a tear to my eyes 🤧 they basically made the berry pea shooter feel so generic and boring to use, they overdid it with the nerf in my opinion, then garden warfare 2 I completely missed out on, never played it during its peak or never watched zackscottgames play it during its peak, it just went under the radar for me, I do think I remember seeing the trailer and being excited for it but then I don’t know what happened I guess I just forgot about it and never actually realized when it released until years later, I did eventually try it out for the first time in 2020, and it was alright didn’t like some changes, but some changes were definitely an improvement over the original, however I am still biased towards the original since I did play it during the peak of the game and during my elementary school-middle school years which bring back a lot of great memories.

    I would love to see you rank all the plants, but I think you might not want to rank plants based on their usage in every game and rather do a PvZ 1 tier list only covering those plants in those games, a PvZ 2 tierlist that covers all the plants in 2 and their usage in there, etc. My main reason for this is that, even though 1 and 2 are similar in terms of gameplay, they are different environments with different systems such as a 25 vs 50 sun system, 2 being a lot more zombie-spam than 1, 2 having a lot more specials and Gargs than 1, and some plants like Cactus getting completely changed in 2.

    Honestly, I think battle for neighborville is underrated. Yea the subclasses being removed was annoying, but I find myself enjoying the classes more in bfn. Battle arena is also VERY fun.

      Well I’m glad you enjoyed it! I prefer GW but that’s just my opinion

      So I’ve heard, it wasn’t listed on the wiki as separate so I didn’t include it

      ​@@Jake.Miller​You should check it out, it's similar to the international version at its core, but has a lot more content, although some parts lack polish, it is still a enjoyable experience

    Pvz evolve is the craziest pvz game. It's pvz but anime girls in it's unbelievability real
