      Ogerpon is always 100% female the loyal three on the other hand are always 100% male that's why there is a meme that someone says Ogerpon is not a good guy then people with pitchfork she is a good girl and then they all cheer

    Teal mask does this thing i HATE in video game stories where you're forced into making a decision and then the narrative punishes you for it. I didn't want to lie to Kieran so it's just incredibly frustrating when the narrative acts like you did some horrible thing by lying to him. The worst part is that here, it wasn't even necessary, imo. He could have just gotten naturally jealous because of ogerpon choosing the character, but no, the player haaaad to lie to him

    Regarding level scaling, I can respect the idea that they want certain trainers to canonically be a certain level of strength. Specifically, I’m fine with Team Star and the Titans not being scaled, BUT, we already have a framework from Pokémon Generations which would justify use of level scaling for the gyms. Oh, and they already have quazi-gym badge scaling in the game: Nemona. Her team actually badge level scales and isn’t locked to a certain gym order. They just need to apply that logic to the gyms.

    I agree with the sentiment that the DLC took far too long to release. I enjoyed the DLC much more than I expected, probably because I went through it simultaneously to the main story. But it’s clear that it was designed to be postgame exclusive as the levels cap at 15~ before beating the main game. Shockingly, I was actually able to explore blueberry academy and all 4 biomes before finishing the teal mask but was locked out of the Elite trials etc until completing it but the levels don’t actually scale so I ended up losing to the initial Lacey battle. I don’t like any of the new legendaries from kitakami but the mystery and suspense behind terapagos was pretty cool. But the area zero stuff was so anticlimactic. And the weird celestial remix at the end credits was so jarring.

  • @jerbear8884
    @jerbear8884 8 месяцев назад +31

    I would have loved if the rivals in the base game were picked by Geeta for the Area Zero expedition. Since they're all champion level trainers, you need to have beaten The Way Home, and to give the trio more screentime and a formal intro to Kieran and Carmine. Just the fact they were excluded felt odd to me and like a huge missed opportunity. Would have been cool too to have a 4 person raid as phase one with us and the base game squad, then devolve to the 2v1 Titan portion with Carmine and Kieran.
    As for the event in the DLC it's already in the game, it's just hidden behind an item. So if you're perusing the Internet be mindful of that if you don't wanna be spoiled

Set all pokemon to level 50 or whatever.

    Im not a big fan of Carmine early up to halfway in the Teals Mask dlc. Like i get the grandfather to an extend of not telling the town about the truth out of fear of being exile, but between him not telling Kirean because how young he is or how us and Carmine not telling him we accidentally bumped into Ogrepon in the festival is stupid.
    I kinda wish there were more story bits in the Indigo disk before we go to the investigation but thats just me. My only gripe is that i kinda wish that there was some deep skeleton in Geeta closet given how several few gym leaders arent fans of being treated. I do love how we can get all the gym leaders, the teachers talking to each other and even the indigo elite 4s.
    Gotta love the extra cutscenes post game implying we caused this but also saved it in the end. Paradox logic, always messing with the brain.

If you don't, no point stopping you. I guess if I would point out some faults, I would say that idk, Indigo Disk's story was short af, and I wanted more from the base game rivals.

    My view on Dexit has been this: in the main story, I’d prefer using the new toys with one or two other older ones I hadn’t used.
    However, I would like the option to carry/transfer all the pokemon to a new generation. Right now, the only pokemon that haven’t been ported to the switch outside of home are the Pan trio, Watchog and, personally for me, Furfrou. Plus, after seeing the processing power that games like Xenoblade go through, you’d think that the switch would be able to handle what is essentially an upgraded ultra Sun and Moon.
    A Paradox Keldeo and Ho-Oh would be ideal. Unfortunately, much like the idea of Galarian Lugia, it’s probably not going to happen.
    In terms of the story, the pacing is too quick. However, Scarlet and Violet excels in smaller character driven beats in the stories that make the legendary threats that much more daunting where you want to see these characters make it out ok.
    I think the performance issues are funny that the world’s most profitable franchise has them in spades. However, much like Dexit, there may not be much of a need to improve because stans and brand loyalty are rampant and, for a lot of people, we’ll still be buying the games anyway because we love pokemon.
    I basically used Hisuian pokemon whilst I was making my team in the mask and disk. When I saw that Kingdra was back, I used that, Murkrow, Alolan Ninetales, Politoed, Archaludon, Hisuian Goodra and that to bring some pain. Plus an Arbok for Lacey that I called Stacey X because the urge for X men references was too strong.
    Overall, great video.

    I haven’t played the dlc yet because I was in prepared for the 2nd part of the dlc & I beat the main story of Pokémon Scarlet yesterday on new year eve in 2023 & I put my thoughts on the main story on twitter & I will put my thoughts on the dlc on twitter once I finish the dlc because I want experience the dlc myself & enjoy it no matter what & dlc is worth it because I was waiting for it done before getting the game & the dlc too for Christmas & play it without getting spoiled but the ending was so emotional but funny at the same time in the main story in my personal opinion & I can’t wait to show off my champion move on the two new character in the DLC this year in 2024😉

    I agree with some of what you said. Good video. Top 5 best pokemon games out there. DLC is dope. A real "pay wall" is makin me buy another game to transfer my pokemon from Go to home to scarlet. That's a pay wall. I already paid for to catch the legendary in go, paid for home and paid for scarlet. Yet i would have to get a whole different game to have save data. Pokemon in a dlc isn't a "pay wall" that's part of the DLC. The stutters aren't bad enough to ruin my hype and my game crashed on me. Sorry want my thing. Never really was tho in any game. I like what i can do in a game. The open world aspect is good. The Handel's itself is good. The amount of pokemon and how to obtain them is satisfying. You don't even have to trade to get those evolutions. I'd rather pay $4 for online to team up to het Legendaries vs buyung the other version for way more to get jus the other Legendaries. Way better option.

    If there was a “bigger goal” that connected everyone … then this would’ve just been yet another linear storyline, which everyone complains about. Isn’t this the point? The stories AREN’T connected. They are their own adventures. What connects this friend group is YOU. You are the conduit in which these people from different walks of life come together, take in a legendary journey, overcome incredible obstacles, and become the best of friends. And then, as you keep progressing, you get to make NEW meangful friends. And by the end, everyone you love shares a story with each other. I don’t find any issues in this area, I think it’s great. When the emotional theme plays and we have to say goodbye to someone, I truly feel it

  • @intercraft12

    In regards to the solo BBQ's not only does it take forever to get a bunch of points, but - to add insult to injury - you can't even get all the [static] legendaries without doing any group quests. You MUST do group quests to get them all, you can only get half of them solo.
    Otherwise the ability to properly fly should've been in from the start, but as said, better late than never.

  • @voyager1568
    @voyager1568 7 месяцев назад

    There’s something I will say. You can’t exactly fault pokemon for trying their best to make their DLC characters meaningful and impactful. If anything, that’s great! It’s obviously expected that we “journey” through Kitakami over extended periods of time, which is why Kieran’s beats always hit so hard, and why we see so much growth from Carmine. This isn’t a 3 hour DLC for them, it’s getting to know us day after day.
    And I’ll be honest, I love them. Both of them. I think Carmine is absolutely incredible, standoff-ish at first, yet becoming another character we can consider one of our dearest friends, and she even ends up being really sad that our adventure comes to an end. And in mochi mayhem, it makes me SO happy to see Kieran smile the way he does. He’s come full circle, and he’s happy, and it makes me happy as well.
    You can’t get mad at GF and TPC for trying their best to make good characters in a limited space. Best characters I’ve experienced in a long time if I’ll be honest

  • @mvpmvp3861
    @mvpmvp3861 7 месяцев назад

    They honestly lost me with how heavily they locked the legendaries and also shiny locked them. You’re telling me after fully completing the Dex, I’d need online compatibility with people in order to access the majority of legendaries and I can’t make up a group with random people in it? Nobody I know irl plays anymore and even if they did, the amount of synch I’d need to be in with them to make sure we’re online together is tedious. After buying the game, the DLC and switch online, I’m still blocked from being able to fully play this game and what frustrates me even more is now when I look at games, I think about how much they’ll suffer once servers are offline. PLA luckily won’t really suffer, half the game is literally missing with BDSP, and with SV, a proper storyline is basically cutout, which isn’t entirely bad since most new characters we meet are in the 2nd and 3rd parts of the game being the DLC, but it just feels so paywall heavy compared to older gen games and even though it’s adorable, it’s still one of those things in the back of your head that slightly takes away the joy of SV and it might just be me, but I’d prefer they make an Emerald or Platinum if a good chunk of the region’s story is blocked behind an online paywall.

    And dude who crashed w/o an autosave has only himself to blame. You turn off autosave - you save manually, especially that there's no good reason to not save frequently while collecting gimmighoul coins. I mean hell, I date back to the days when you had to buy AA batteries for your gameboy and power could die on you without much warning aside the light getting slightly dimmer.

    I think that Kieran is a great character. His pain and anger is very relatable for me. I was mentally abused for most of my life, and I can clearly see that the same thing is going on with him.
    Carmine is mentally abusing him. He was isolated and miserable, and our character was what made him not being able to stand this anymore and all of his repressed emotions were released. You may not have seen it, but I have experience with that kinda stuff. Kieran is the victim and Carmine is a monster, but the game doesn't acknowledge it and acts like she's fine, which is super bad.
