Also one of the new accessories coming let’s you dress as team break from masters:

There’s also team flare outfits. This implies a lot of games from the series even mobile, could get referenced in new clothing.

Also I’m calling it now the tundra exploration leader is Willow from Pokémon go.

People really pretending to be mad at saving money
Yeah, all in all this is a good price unless you believe they saved the 200+ old pokemon specifically for DLC, the way Capcom used to withhold content on the disc to sell to you later. I don't believe that's the case, so strictly looking at it monetarily, it's a reasonable asking price.

Pokemon games have been $40 since the DS, with Pearl/Diamond releasing over 12 years ago. With that in mind:

Pearl: $40
Platinum: $40
$80 Total

Sword: $60
Expansion Pass: $30
$90 Total

When you account for inflation over the course of over a decade, plus the addition of full 3D modeling rather than sprite work, I'd say the price is absolutely consistent.


What people will argue is whether the value of the game's content has lowered, but they'll be arguing about price because they're idiots.

Hot Take: TPC is Japan's EA and the announced DLC for Sword/Shield proved it to me. While Smash Ultimate, Breath of The Wild, Xenoblades 2 etc has paid DLC, their base games were actually COMPLETE and the DLC felt more like a local restuarant's desert rather than the other half of a dinner meal you thought you paid for full but you have to pay extra for.

For Games Done Quick, I have no idea how they're going to beat Fire Emblem Three Houses in under two hours, considering that it took me about 40 for one house.

That's cool and all but you never told me about this and I am now sueing for emotional distress for not seeing this sooner
There was a problem fetching the tweet
I've posted that in various social threads here at least half a dozen times. I saw that **** in the theater.

That's not even the full scene. They keep going for about twice as long as that, then Leon shows up on a motorcycle from inside the elevator, which he drives across the top of the building to throw it off the edge at a Tyrant hanging off a helicopter so he can shoot the gas tank and explode it.


Everybody ever should watch this movie.

I'm going to try and remember this for movie night in a few weeks, **** sounds dumb and should be the standard for action scenes

Going to my cousin's tomorrow. Haven't seen them in a while, and sense they have no idea I do voice over, I'm gonna make them play a game I voice in.

A horror game I voice in.

I get to watch them die to my character over, and over, and over.

I'm a good relative to have.

Dive builds.

Stride is broken and can allow you to finish any map with "defeat the enemy commander" in one turn if you build your team right. You don't really need to level up anyone but your boss killer for those maps.

I have no idea what dive builds or Stride are, but that does make it sound like it would save a lot of time.

I feel like you’re insinuating something.

All the Resident Evil CGI movies are worth a watch for their campy action (I riffed the first one if you ever saw that), but Vendetta is, like, a whole different level of gloriously stupid.

Also I like sassy Rebecca. I'm glad they bought her back.

You never used Stride? Hoo boy.

It's an E-rank gambit that allows a whole block of your team to move five extra spaces. It makes the game a lot easier to be offensive when you get it, which is fairly early on.

wasnt Gary the same guy that made a sever maintence happen at the same time as Joker dropped?
We blame all of those issues on Carl the Intern.

SNK copyright 4 days before Terry's announced? Carl.
Bloody Tears shown a day early? Carl.

Always blame Carl.
