Re: Poll: How Do You Pronounce These Pokémon-Related Words?

@ThanosReXXX I probably didn't word my comment that well, Dodger was asking why A sounds are sometimes like AR sounds and if it was a dialect thing, Glass and Master were just to illustrate the dialect thing and how certain pronounciations will make an A into an AR.

That's whether it's in the middle or the end of the word by the way,

It midly bothers me how many of you lot say Arceus wrong. It's a fusion of Arc and Deus, When Silvally's ability, a type changer very similar to Arceus called R-K-S was revealed, I always saw that as Gamefreak telling people they were pronouncing Arceus wrong.

Also i've never heard anyone say Sudowoodo out loud so the way I pronounce that must be a big outlier, mine wasn't even an option.

@Alpha008 I'm pretty sure some of the bundles did increase in price but maybe i'm misremembering.

Anyway saying microtransactions are optional is a little misleading, when I first got it I thought the game was grindy and it turns out it was by design, we see this in games where microtransactions are removed, they often have to entirely rebalance the entire in game economy as a result because the game becomes too frustrating (Shadow of War for example). There's no option to just have a less grindy game, the prices, the drip feeding of wumpa coins, the trickle of nitro fuel has all been meticulosly put together with the intent to get people spending.

I'm not here to preach to anyone, if you genuinely haven't noticed a change and you're enjoying the game then I'm happy for you. I just don't support models like this on principle because I find them cyncial and to the active detriment to the game.

I'm honestly more interested in Konami setting up a shell company because of third party limitations, the past is weird.

I voted NA because they're all kind of average but I didn't really care for the background on the other two.
