Apparently one specific Cherrim in one specific location is bugged and can't be caught. As in literally, it always breaks out of the ball. That's ****ing hilarious.

It's an aesthetics thing TBH.

I personally don't like the Colors Ultimate model too much because he looks a little off. Like, I don't really like the texture work done on him too much and the way he looks in the lighting make him look way too shiny for my tastes.

The Unleashed model uses mats a little better and the overall color choice for the texture work just looks nicer to me.

That said: The game is not better or worse depending on the model: It's definitely an aspect people hyper-fixate on. The important part is "How does Sonic feel" and Colors/Colors Ultimate already got that pretty 10/10 IMO.

Tbf, Sonic's fans love hyper-fixating on the smallest stuff to rage over a video game for the sake of it.

Actually

Not to start a debate on this (please don't) but I do got a question for Sonic peeps:

Did you...Actually notice, his quills were shorter in Forces?

'Cause I played a pretty large amount of Forces and never noticed it, had to have it pointed out.

I didn't.

But that's probably because I was too distracted by the drab environments and broken physics.

Man I have like a thousand things I want to do right now. Some important and some not. Doesn't help that my legs are in a lot of pain from having to go cross the city in like 30 minutes.

And right now, I'm super tempted to create a character that has Kurumi and some Genshin characters as inspiration. Thinking of a fire mage character with magical muskets and has a unique ability to create Jack'o'Lanterns as like steps.

It's so hard trying to think of unique characters that haven't been done already and preventing cliches.



My god, I just realised with that style of writing that its you Snake. Wondered what happened to you.

I'm in the boat that its a good direction for the series but needs one more entry to pull me in. Taking in some of the exploration mechanics from BOTW or (and yes, fight me) Death Stranding to help catch Pokemon.



Ehhhhh, I kinda disagree. For a Nintendo open world game yes but I wish there was more characterisation in the settings to make it far more memorable.

It's a great game but really, really needed a lot of touching up. And best open world? I'm unsure of that. Combat, various mechanics, art style, yes its up there but it needed more.

Honestly the thing that gets me is catching Pokémon has never been the part I like the most. For me it’s battling them. I’d get the same enjoyment from the series if you just bought Pokémon in a PokéPet Store. I want the game to focus more on battling and less on catching.

FR I never see this in other fandoms except maybe like, Pokémon and Paper Mario.

Anytime something like Mario's model changes no one really cares. Like, you don't see weeklong debates about what color Mario's overalls are or how big his nose is.

It's weird.

Disney regrets buying something/someone they can easily lose

The year is 2060. Disney has bought out almost every company in existance. The world has been in shambles as the mouse has the earth under megacorporation totalitarion regime. Meanwhile, a resistance is brewing to topple over Disney and the Mouse's empire, a resistance led by no one other than Scrat himself, to give Mickey the Meltdown.

Geez. Trying to write out a condensed version of all my story ideas into one document.

Have about five main ones and this should only take me 10 minutes but just lacking motivation honestly. Same with coursework tonight.

-------------------------------------

Also and very off topic.

Am I only the one who still gets any form of enjoyment on racing games on Nintendo consoles that isn't owned by them and Crash?

I just never really see much talk about the genre on here.

Don't you hate turn-based RPGs?

Unless I'm missing something, I really don't like that the requests in Legends: Arceus doesn't tell you where the NPC you need to talk is once you made progress on that request.

Jubilife Village may be the smallest area in the game, but the many NPC's it has are scattered all over the place.

I'm just not big on racing games in general.

I enjoyed SEGA All-Stars ones and I occasionally play Need For Speed with my dad but that's mostly it.

You can just select that request from the menu and it'll put a marker on the map where the NPC or event is.

Xenoblade 2 is kinda like this if you pretend Tora is Scrat and replace Rex with him.

Tora's a little fluffy thing but he doesn't have the crackhead energy.


I need some Sephiroth tier guy proclaiming how he'll end the world with the power of the sacred pineapple that's been sealed away for 3000 eons, while a rodent is doing this in the back.

my office, probably
I just caught two Quillfish

I might use one of them. Dark/Poison is a good type combo plus it already has great Water coverage in Aqua Tail. I think I'm gonna put one of them on my team at least for the time being, especially since my Psyduck is essentially becoming dead weight

Tip of the day.

Don't have a semi-pro FIFA or Madden player as a sibling who snaps at losing.


Doing coursework and my brother is getting on like this in the next room. Thumping the floors and shouting.

Well, I've been procrastinating with Arceus' story for so long, I already have a Typhlosion despite not even having started the story of the second area. Granted, it also took a long time until I finally found a single Cherubi.

I find all the licenses that Hotwheels unleashed got for it's roster really amusing.

Like during a race you can see this list of names pop up in the corner:

Bane
Poison Ivy
WonderWoman
Snoppy
Barbie
Spongebob
Squidward

And this is a poster you can put in the games stage builder:
