    That's a pretty good way to say, "I've never played the Battle Factory", without outright saying it. :totodiLUL: Let's ignore that Fire Emblem dodgetanks are generally kinda busted for a minute because I agree with you. But obviously, it's extremely unsatisfying for players to have to click...

    So you're saying it aged like milk? :wo: Yes, I'm just saying it's higher on the priority scale of what would make *me* play a game. Can't really argue with that, but I'm not that much of an art hater :totodiLUL: Maybe I didn't express myself clearly. (Many such cases :mehowth:) I did read...

    Yeah, I know, I said it like, three times. You wrote a full-fledged article about game reviews with all that Xenoblade mumbo jumbo and the big takeaway about the game itself was "That game was a milestone for the Wii because JRPGs in that era were kind of awful, but it aged like milk, and got...

    And this is why I couldn't possibly care less about reviews. Ultimately, I'm the one who is going to play the game, instead of rolling the dice and hoping I get a review that isn't glazing some nonsense, I'm going to check Youtube for some no commentary gameplay footage or try to get a demo...

    Well, that's obvious, innit? :totodiLUL: People are thinking this will be like Showdown, when it will be a lot closer to PBR at best. :mehowth: The battle simulator games were all very tied to the games and a way to sell them, so I don't expect anything that would make it possible for people...

    It's not too bad because turn-based combat isn't really affected by lag.

    GSC In-Game Tier List Mark V

    It hasn't quite been finished yet. Machop wound up at B-Tier (Machamp)/C-Tier (Machoke) Come to think of it, was there anything left to test before write-ups? I guess we could wrap this one up already, right?

    It doesn't need to be a team raid. A properly balanced 1v1 raid-style battle where the legendary has inflated HP and some other kind of buff would work. Totem mons were raid-like battles, and they were 1v... Well, 1v2 because they're weird with the jumping, but I think you get my point

    Just make them raid battles. We have the technology now :mehowth:

    Shinies haven't mattered since the Red Gyarados :mehowth: Most of them are too ugly to even bother with anyway, and they're just a haphazard palette swap in most cases.

    Regional Forms and Convergent Species (Regional Fakes) should be treated like Wiglett/Diglett in SV. Both are available in the same game, but in different biomes. I could make a case for it being more plausible for a bunch of Vulpix to move within the same region and eventually become Alolan...

    That would potentially be messy with Home transfers and whatnot With that said, I do think these ranges are plausible for Gourgeist, but they'll probably be set after the form is defined as usual.

    The speculated trio of Snivy, Piplup, and Scorbunny was undoubtedly very cool, but people really forgot that they fit too well. :totodiLUL: What would regional forms for those be to make them more French? Sticking a croissant on Empoleon's horns?

    To be fair... When the core of the argument boils down to "The other two are worse", that's not a good sign :totodiLUL: The flexibility of Dynamax does make it more interesting in practice, and he did mention some BIG balance issues. Ultimately, I'm pretty sure he must have a vid mentioning how...

    And all they needed to do was put them up in BDSP in an update in the Grand Underground. :mehowth: Sinnoh got done dirty, it is what it is.

    To be frank, I don't expect much out of Champions presentation-wise, besides having arenas that aren't as hideous as Gen 9's. The real kicker was they the showed they're using the exact same animations as Gen 9 for attacks, so realistically, there's not a lot of room for change. They...

    Oh, don't worry, I got plans for them. :psysly: I do like the idea of Max Brick Break tho. For sure. Dynamax as a whole is very poorly designed. A single Max Move is already more impactful than a Z-Move just because of the secondary effects, even with the BP trade-off. Ironically, what...
