Is this entire thread just some big weird roleplay.p that's disguised as a shitpost thread?

I am so disappointed in him

I just....I just don't understand it

he's literally not going to buy the games because they're cutting pokemon

now he's happy they're cutting pokemon?

because that's what cutting mega evolutions is
to be fair, cutting Megas isn't the same as cutting entire Pokemon...for a lot of Pokemon, it's specifically cutting what makes them good and now you've just got an empty shell floating about, a little more than a painful reminder of what once was.

that really isn't much better

they're not only cutting what makes them good, they're cutting entire designs too (though maybe you meant that too, I couldn't really tell)

like, I quite like mega pinsir, but I don't give a shit about regular pinsir

so now that the mega's gone, the entire species means nothing to me now
 
thank you, chida-kun~

hugs the ghirahim sableye

game freak has dragged me into a position where I'm basically forced to be a hypocrite

because I think having mega evolutions and dynamax/gigantamax in the same game might be too much, and if they have to get rid of one of them, I'd much rather have them get rid of dynamax/gigantamax

I would miss gigantamax alcremie, though...

I'm not judging these games based on what Pokémon we can find on them. I'm waiting for them to air and judge them based on how enjoyable they are.

Cutting Pokémon is understandable, given the huge amount of different designs we have by now and the fact that creating new models for each of them for the Switch console isn't easy. People should cut Game Freak some slack.
 
the problem is, SwSh look pretty bare-bones as-is. Not a lot of new stuff to make up for less Pokemon. Also as far as I'm able to tell, these are the exact same models as on 3DS, just with upscaled textures.

I'd cut them some slack if they were making these games out of passion and the kindness of their hearts. But they're not. They're making the games to make money, and as a consumer, I'm allowed to have standards about the products I purchase. Video games are a luxury, not a necessity. And if a luxury is getting more expensive but lower quality, I'm well within my rights to not buy it.
