Topic	I've genuinely never seen this much bad PR for a game before (Pokemon)
LinkPizza 11/16/19 8:58:39 AM #143:	BanjoBoomer posted... The universal collectability of monsters is the biggest thing that set Pokemon apart from the competition. If they had cut a bunch of Gen 1 Pokemon in Gen 2, I seriously doubt as many people would have stuck with the series. I disagree wholeheartly. When I was younger and played with my friends, most people were always playing for the new Pokmon instead of the old ones. Not only that, most never traded their old Pokmon in. Mainly because not many people even had the link cable or a way to trade. I did have a link cable and let m friends use it. And they did, but never to trade in older Pokmon. There are many people who never did. Because it wasnt a big deal to everyone. The series would have done just fine. Especially since they didnt have that much competition, if were being honest. BanjoBoomer posted... Well it doesn't sound like you can relate to the collector mindset that Pokemon is made to appeal to. The whole point is that it's supposed to feel like a real, physical collection of monsters. What do you collect? I use to collect the cards when I was younger. I would have still been collecting them. But I didnt have a job of enough money to continue on with it. Now that I have money, I want to try for dice. I know this one lady (played Shadowrun with her) who had this bag of dice. All sorts, too. Im probably not who they tried to appeal to. But I also dont believe that was the main appeal, either... BanjoBoomer posted... This comment makes it sound like you aren't very invested in or informed about the ongoing Pokemon franchise, which explains why you can't understand the problem people have with dexit. Black and White exclusively featured new pokemon in the main game, and only featured new pokemon the postgame. If Gamefreak wanted everyone to try out new pokemon, they would simply do this again. No. I just didnt play one game. So, I dont know what that game did that was different. But whatever. Except that wouldnt necessarily work. Especially if people just sent all their Pokmon from the older games in. BanjoBoomer posted... This entire controversy would go away if Gamefreak would simply announce that they heard fans and will add all pokemon back in a future patch. This is not a situation where "there's no way to make people happy". Sure. This controversy. And then they would start arguing about something else. Its like youve never been on the internet. They will always complain about something. This is a solution where some people wont be happy. Especially considering how people are already complaining about literally everything else about the game. This is one controversy compared to many other problems people have with it. And not everybody even wants all of them... Youre thinking interns of what you want... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
