@IceClimbersMain So you want Gen 9 then?

@SmogHobbit The games a complete mess on Xbox with a terrible framerate, constant crashes and bugs galore. Gen 9 actually had better launch, it had issues pretty big ones but no one where near Palworld's issues. Where an "AI made asset flip" struggles to hit 30fps on the Series X you have to question things.

@Toastmaster Rumour? There's mounting evidence of it increasing by the hour. It being a monster tamer crossed with Ark isn't the issue its the monster designs themselves.

@westman98 Ok fair enough i'm just basing that on a lot of comments i've seen but i wouldn't be shocked though, these designs do have an air of AI about them imo so i suppose we will see.

@KnightsTemplar and this impacts physical games as well as its "DLC" you download from in game.

@Lxlxrxzx What disrespect? A shoddy technical state is the only thing Gen 9 is really guilty off and guess what Palworld is far far worse in that regard.

Nice to know you're fine with theft and using AI to help with that though.

@Eagly_lmtd_xmasskin Palworld's Devs seem to be literally taking already existing designs and then tweaking them, The Boy's didn't steal Superman's design while the Devs behind Palworld clearly are stealing designs with the help of AI.

Also you need to look parody laws as it isn't what you think, you can't just steal art and say well its a parody so its cool. Homelander doesn't look or act like Superman, he's based on Superman and his look is inspired but he's very much his own character and his look is very much stands on his own. Also The Boys isn't a parody and calling it one is like calling Watchmen a parody.

The issue i feel isn't copying the formula as clearly Nintendo/TPC have no issues there but the fact the Devs have ripped off so many PM designs. Before people say "yeah but PM has over 1000 designs so it would be hard to be original" well i say Digimon never had that issue, Persona/SMT don't nor do games like Cassette Beasts. The designs in Palworld really are on thin ice i feel between being inspired and just outright plagiarism.

@TheMegaMarshtomp "The game looks like a cheap shovelware knock-off. It's just a cheap knock-off is far superior in quality to the all the Pokémon games made in the last 5-10 years."

Funny because visually its worse then the Switch PM games and its technical state on Xbox is really bad and far worse then Gen 9's launch state.

@NintonicGamer Gen 7 changed the formula and it was hated for it, Gen 9 makes massive changes to the formula and people ignore that and still cry about its technical issues that haven't been that bad in nearly a year.

A lot of the designs are just rip offs and come across as copying homework but changing a few things, i can see TPC taking legal action for sure.

As for the game itself well its a technical mess right now and is not great visually, in fact visually it's worse then Gen 9 and its techinal state is far worse then Gen 9's launch state as well however when its not crashing it is pretty fun and a perfect Gamepass game. Overtime i can see it evolving into something great but right now if i were to pick a monster taming/catching game that isn't Pokemon then Cassette Beasts is the best option. Despite what the internet is saying Palworld isn't what Gen 9 should have been as all the things Gen 9 and Palworld both do Gen 9 does better.

1TB at the very least, games are getting bigger and bigger so yeah anything less won't be ideal. Anyone picking 256gb clearly doesn't own other consoles.

Day 1 buy. The newer games have surpassed it but BM is still a classic.

Yeah i shell be all over it as i loved Violet and its DLC.

@BonglyBits You also have to buy the game and a Switch as well.

Nor every game needs to last forever.

@Rozetta But Street Fighter 2 having endless versions was fine?

@NinjaNicky Pretty much every fighter does this and fighters before DLC were forcing you to buy "super" and "ultimate" editions to get the extra characters, wanted Scorpion in MK3 well you had to buy Ultimate MK3.

@Serpenterror Forspoken doesn't deserve to be on that list. Its not a great game far from it but its not a bad or broken game either its just very average and so so, i will say its worth playing once it hits Plus though as the movement system to explore the big if empty open world is a ton of fun and the combat is also pretty solid.

This will never be fixed as Nintendo just don't care. Let's face it the online store is terrible and again its because Nintendo don't care. I don't expect much improvement with the Switch 2.

@Fizza Nemona is best girl, my favourite rival since Blue.

@Blue_Dread Don't give a sh*t dude.

Been playing all weekend and honestly i love it and its easily the highpoint of Gen 9. The new map is great and like with the base game the characters, story and writing are some of the best in the entire series with Carmine easily being one of my favourite characters in the series. Love the new features added and while its rather pointless i do love we can actually play as the Pokemon now even if its really limited in what you can do.

Overall Violet has gone down as one of my favourite entries, yes its performance is bad and yes visually its not good but the high points for me far outweigh the bad.

Yeah this struggled on PS4 so i'm not shocked the Switch is struggling hard with it. Its an amazing game though no matter where you play it.

Between the dismal loading times and so so performance on Switch as a PS5 player i wouldn't even want to play with Switch players 😂

@Sisilly_G Starting in Gen 8 not every Pokemon will be in every Gen and that applies to Mythicals and Legendaries as well. Gen 8 had Celebi and even had an event to get a shiny one but Gen 9 doesn't have Celebi but it does have Deoxys what Gen 8 lacked.

@Sisilly_G Celebi can't be obtained in Gen 9 so the chances of getting it right now are pretty much zero.

Platinum is pretty much dead now, the Platinum that made Bayo, Vanquish and MGRR is long gone.

@progx Yeah it runs Village but it isn't great on there plus all those games mentioned are cross gen as the OG PS4 has them. The games i mentioned are current gen only very demanding games with two of them running on U5, ARK would melt the phone haha. I can't imagine Avatar running on a phone at all as well and i highly doubt Cyberpunk would either.

@progx Can those Phones run the new Avatar game? Baldur's Gate 3? ARK Survival Ascended? Robocop?

@eltomo They know enough to have an idea on how powerful a Switch 2 will be. The Switch 2 will be weaker then the Series S why? Because a portable Series S would murder the battery life and cost a fortune and once you factor in SSD's the price shoots up even more. Look at Steam Deck and others like it they're only really around PS4 and One X levels and that's because they have to be for good battery life and so they can be sold at a reasonable price.

Well yeah, the Switch 2 will mostly likely be what Steam Deck levels? Nah GTA 6 will be pushing the PS5 and especially the Series S hard so a Switch 2 stands no chance.

Well deserved and its a stacked year with both TotK and AW2 also being worthy as well.

This won't be on Switch but maybe Switch 2.

That was a great wholesome trailer. Nice to see Legendaries making a return though at this point i already have them all in multiples, hopefully we see more Mythicals included that didn't make the Gen 8 line up. What i'm hoping though is they done what they did with the S&S DLC and add a stack of new Legendaries.

@Sculptor and Hogwarts is a shell of its true self on Switch, to get it running on Switch they had to completely gimp the open world and add a ton of loading screens. AK may run worse but let's not pretend Hogwarts is a good port either.

@kalosn Arkham Knight is is one of the most graphically dense games out there and even now it holds up very well. The issue with the TW3 is its on the Red Engine an engine designed for PC and a engine that was fairly buggy but by the time TW3 was ported to Switch a lot of the issues with the engine were sorted. Unreal though doesn't like open words and Unreal doesn't like Switch hence why AK is more demanding, AK stood no chance on Switch.

When my friend who has a high tolerance for bad ports says its bad i knew it must be bad.

@PikaPhantom Genshin is bigger and far more popular then those games and unlike Genshin those games wouldn't even reach the top 5 like Genshin has.

Yeah its either this or Baldur's Gate 3 and i have a feeling BG3 is winning it.

@Bratwurst35 Because all WB care about is money, its easier to take a chance on Batman then Green Lantern and unlike Marvel they can't fallback on a popular film character to generate hype, Batman sells and its actually quite shocking its been nearly 9 years since his last proper outing in gaming. Anyway Suicide Squad is out next year, we had Gotham Knights last year and Wonder Woman is coming at some point and none of these games have Bats as a playable character or a main character.

@kalosn Arkham Knight is more demanding then TW3 and more graphically advanced hence why TW3 is starting to show its age while Arkham Knight outclasses both Suicide Squad and Gotham Knight and can hold its own against many current gem games.

Switch owners really to understand just because TW3 was ported doesn't mean every game can be, TW3 is not the "can it Crysis" game Switch owners think it is. Its biggest hurdle was the open world and if you can solve the open world problem (a world mind you mostly contained of towns, trees and seas) then the rest of the game won't be too much of an hassle.

@LikelySatan Superman is far from boring and Batman has hardly been done to death, i mean come on Spider-Man has had more games then Batman. End of the day Batman sells hence why he's never going away, DC/WB don't care what a small minority think.

Baldur's Gate 3 is my GOTY but TOTK is a close 2nd so i'm happy with either winning.

@Fangleman32 You understand the Suicide Squad aren't part of Batman right? They're as connected to Batman as they are The Flash or Superman.

@Fangleman32 Batman hasn't had a game in 8 years and Superman hasn't had a game since Superman Returns a game so old its on PS2 plus Supes has never had a good game and is crying out for one. That said i want a open world Flash game more then any other.

@Link-Hero I know its improved i was just saying the console versions were really well done and were better then the PC version at launch. Here's hoping a 60fps update drops for them this month so we can play at 60fps on PS5 and SX.

@HotGoomba Barely run on PS4? It pretty much sticks to the 30fps and looks gorgeous at it, the PC version was the one that had issues not PS4 or X1.

Knight looks terrible and performs awfully.

Sucks but as long at least its not like World where once its gone its gone for everyone.
