    Im so thrilled with Arceus. The graphics department definetely leaves some things to be desired, but the game is fun, wholesome and challenging. Its the smaller changes that do it for me; quality of life improvements, better facial expressions, and the guts to not at all shy away from pokémon vs human conflict is awesome. I absolutely adore this game so far.

    • @waleedkhalid7486
      @waleedkhalid7486 2 года назад +34

      Yes! I actually reccomend just catching like 20 random Pokémon (higher levs are better) everytime you go out to the field. These Pokémon are there just to release and get grit. For those who don’t know, grit is used to IV train your Pokémon (neither IVs nor EVs exist in this game, but the EV levels essentially are like IVs). This makes your mons very powerful and makes your adventuring much easier.

    A lot of the quality of life changes were needed years ago! I love the move customization and would have made HMs more bearable back then by having a Pokémon learn it but not have the move in their current main set. Also love the fact that trading is no longer necessary to getting certain forms or how evolving is not automatic anymore so an everstone or constant evolution interruptions is no longer needed to keep preferred forms. Hope these become staples in future games.

    This game does A LOT right, now I’m just waiting for a future title to incorporate gyms as well. I REALLY think they should wait 3-4 years before releasing their next main line game. If they use that time, they will be able to make something really special. Imagine an open world with 3 routes to complete- catching, contests, and gyms+league. You could choose whichever one you want to do without being tied to any particular path. Going to different towns would involve traversing through wilderness and dirt/paved roads if you want to make a beeline. Your story would be considered complete based on which quest line you follow, and you can do the others

    I got the game last night, but I waited to start playing until today. Super excited to get into the deep end.
    Btw, if you want to know; I got Chimchar already. It was just a rare spawn in the area where you first encounter Geodude and Stantler.

    One of the aspects that I’ve really enjoyed that you touched on in the video is that, in this game, I no longer have to depend on trading to complete my Dex. I felt like systems like the GTS are just incredibly unreliable to get Pokemon you actually want.

    Great Video! Thank you for showing how you organized your pasture! It was a huge help! Something I’ve learned is to regularly release the Pokémon you aren’t going to use, and when they leave, they leave you with Dirt Gravel, rocks and pebbles. Which is great for those of you who are trying to build up certain pokemons’ stats and you get it FOR FREE!!

      And its not the switch limiting it. BOTW was made for wii u. its just gamefreak not knowing how to optimize their games. It's been known for a very long time now that they are terrible at graphics but the render distance in this game is annoying.

    This game is so freaking amazing. I haven't played since pokemon X and Y. Thus got me back in. I love how they got rid of EV and IV as I was never a fan, i love easy changing natures, no stupid held items. I love being able to max out the pokemon I actually adventures with as well.
    Cons: graphics and very generic environments. I also believe gamefreak could've made the pokemon interact more with their environment, like have them swimming, climbing trees, etc., pretty much acting like animals. I also wish they didn't get rid of hidden abilities which were cool, but I do admit it helps keep the grind down.
