Re: Talking Point: 'Pokopia 2' Feels Inevitable, But Do We Really Need A Sequel?

I mean, they haven't even announced anything yet and they are still releasing content for this game so how about we ask this when that happens? As for "needing" a sequel, it makes sense to release one if enough time has passed. Again, right now it doesn't make much sense to ask something like this. Tell me after some years have passed and people actually have time to miss the game.

Re: Final Fantasy XIV Online Updated On Switch 2, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

@ValentineMeikin That's great and all but as I told the other person: I wasn't complaining, just saying why it didn't stick with me. I have played my share of MMOs since the 90s and I enjoyed many. Also, it plays like something from 20+ years ago, not a decade.

As I mentioned it's not like I'm a recent gamer, I've been around for a while. It's just that I'm not carried on only by nostalgia and I think that many games deliver "classic" experiences without using it as excuse to not improve.

@DarkTron My "complaint" is that an MMO that was released 16 years ago but competes in the current market and that was rebooted, is frequently updated and receives expansions feels as samey and old or even older than MMOs from 20+ years ago. This isn't the gotcha moment that you think it is and there's nothing dumb about it other than you getting triggered by my opinion. Also, being in the FF universe was mentioned as the one positive that in my case isn't enough to make me stay with the game, not a negative.

It wasn't even a complaint, just the reason why personally I didn't enjoy it and not the only thing I mentioned. I think that it's completely valid to expect a more modernized and approachable format from current MMOs and to be able to play a class you want without investing 40+ hours to it.

I was trying the free trial and as a port it's pretty good. Unfortunately it felt like an MMO from 20+ years ago and it didn't have anything special aside from being set in the FF universe. After some hours playing it I realized that I wasn't having fun. The story might be good once you advance but it needs a huge time investment and it seemed to me like the classic convoluted FF stories but with a much slower pace and a less interesting premise. Customization was also very limited in the 2 species I cared about (Viera and Hrothgar). Also, I needed to reach the expansion to try the job/class I wanted so it would need 40+ hours and I don't have time for that to see if I enjoy something. I'm glad for those that enjoy it tho.

Re: Video: 10 Exciting Games Coming To Switch And Switch 2 In August 2026

@JC016 They have lots of cutscenes, but they are also games with great gameplay and there's nothing like them. MGS4 is the worst offender in that regard but it also has really cool stealth mechanics while Peace Walker is probably the one with the least and shortest cutscenes and also really cool gameplay. Either MGS1 or 3 are the best entry points if you wanna see the story, but you could see videos on YouTube summarizing the story so that you can begin with any game you want. For Peace Walker for example you really only need to know the story of MGS3.

@3DixieKong Yeah I agree. TMNT fans have been pretty close minded (specially older ones) and it's a shame because every design and series as a whole has been great. I remember feeling negatively about Rise initially and once I gave it an opportunity it became one of my favorites. This is one of the few franchises that has such a good record.

Re: Review: Digimon Story Time Stranger (Switch 2) - A Superb RPG That Further Sets Digimon Apart From Its Rival

1. Metacritic scores were brought by YOU lol.

2. Almost every game have people review bombing them, specially Digimon when there's so many Pokemon fanatics out there that have no idea about it and think that it's just a Pokemon copy even after so many years and having Google at their reach.

3. Pokopia has a score of 89 with reviewers and 8.7 with the general public. It's very, very simple: people found more quality in that spin-off and as you can see, it didn't do worse in reviews just because it has the Pokemon licence attached to it and it actually had a great reception.

4. Other users have explained this to you already. There's DIFFERENT writers in this site and the score that it was given is considered good (7) even if you disagree with it.

5. You "couldn't agree more" with someone (UpsideDownRowlette) who said the opposite of what you said, you have used Metacritic against your own argument TWICE and you have no idea in general of what you are talking about on pretty much every topic you have mentioned.

There's a lot of us that enjoy Pokemon and also ZA Legends and I do think that some of Pokemon's backlash has been unfair, but as Rowlette mentioned there's also very valid criticism against it. Going against Digimon isn't going to do anyone any favors, specially because it's a great game and a very different franchise in general that has nothing to do with that theme. It's ok if you didn't like the comparisons and you don't enjoy this game, that's fair. But everything else is just you not knowing when to recognize being wrong.

Seriously dude, don't be one of those people that just argues to be right. You can let people enjoy this and not crap on it while you argue that Pokemon deserves better scores.

@kal_el_07241 It's not what? Better evaluated by Nintendolife? Because it is and that's what we are talking about. But since you mentioned Metacritic: Pokemon ZA has a 78 score with reviewers and a 4.8 one with the general public. Time Stranger has a 79 score with reviewers and a 9.0 with the general public.

My dude, seriously, before making whatever argument check your sources so that something like this doesn't happen. Even your own source, which by the way is a strawman ended up against you.

@kal_el_07241 You and the people that upvoted you must leave in a parallel world or something. I love both franchises and both have been received well most of the time here. It just so happens that this time Digimon was received better than ZA Arceus, but still with Arceus doing pretty well the review. Out of all the sites that are actually crapping on Pokemon, this isn't one. You are saying that they hate Pokemon while you being the one having something against Digimon apparently.
