Was anyone else kind of disappointed in the Pokemon presents?
I was hoping for something new, like a new pmd or Legends, or another new spinoff entirely, but we got literally nothing new. We got detective Pikachu release date, a couple events for the mobile games, and dlc we already knew about. The applin and duraludon evos are great, don't get me wrong, but I really wanted something new, ya know?
Sorry if I'm a bit of a downer, just wanted to see what others were thinking.
Oh man i craving a new mystery dungeon! I was so happy when they remade rescue team and was so hopeful it meant more were coming. but its been like three years and weve got nothing 😭
You’re not alone. I wasn’t expecting anything new, but I wasnt blown away by what I saw. I’m pretty excited for the SV DLC, but the way they are revealing info about it is killing my hype. I don’t know why, but the way they are dragging their feet has me caring less and less each trailer. Like there were some new forms or evos in this trailer, but I didn’t feel excited.
I can’t stress enough how little I care about Cafe Remix, but every Pokémon announcement has to spend 5 minutes telling me about the new visitors or outfits or whatever. I assume people must be playing this game or they wouldn’t be leaning so hard into it, but I really dont care at all.
I was into PoGo at launch but I’ve really grown to resent it and Niantic as a company so I don’t use any of their apps
I am a bit interested in Detective Pikachu because I loved the movie even though I never played the first one, but it’s not something I’m very hyped about. I may not even get it, but it does seem fun.
I would love to see another Legends game announced or something to actually get me excited. The same Treasure of Area Zero trailer 10 times with a couple new screenshots added each time is not doing it for me. I didn’t even share the video with my friends and talk about the announcements. I’m basically the only one still interested in giving Pokémon a shot and even I’m just so bummed with what they’re showing.
I will say that some of the anime stuff they showed looked kinda cool, but it’s probably not something I’ll actually watch at this point
Yeah it's like I'm getting jerked around by all my monster collector RPGs. Not a word on the new Digimon story game this year, Pokemons getting worse in every conceivable way except fan games.
Yeah most people I talk to about Pokémon these days just dismiss the franchise as crap and bring up things like Cassette Beasts instead. I’ll always be a Pokémon lover but I am a little bummed out by the state of things sometimes.
Check out Monster Sanctuary if you need another fresh monster taming game. Probably my favorite non-Pokémon monster game of all time
I mean Pokemon fan games have been the absolute savior of the series for me recently. Uranium, Insurgence, XenoVerse, Infinite Fusion, and most recently Flux have all been amazing, and I cannot wait for swirling seasons!.
Monster Sanctuary was very apparently made with a lot of love and care, but I couldn't quite make it through the tutorial. I don't blame the game as I was in a funk at the time, I'll have to give it another go after baldurs gate is done devouring my soul.
Haha, I totally get it. I had the same experience with Cassette Beasts. Like I love the mechanics and music and a lot of the monster designs I’ve seen, but after 5 hours I was done with it. Not sure why considering all my friends think it’s the best thing ever.
Infinite Fusion is another one they all love, but I couldn’t really get into. I liked Insurgence when I played it like 8 years ago. Radical Red was very enjoyable too but I did a lot of save scumming lol
Yeah I can see not liking them. Infinite Fusion is the Kanto story again for the umpteenth time, the fusions made it for me, and the built in challenges was cool, but I could absolutely see not being interested.
If you want that traditional Pokemon experience, Flux or XenoVerse might come the closest even with Flux not having the standard gym challenge.
