Why does the Pokemon Sword Alpha have a mini map, and the regular game doesn't.

There's also a free camera in the starting area so they probably scaled back a lot

Probably because they realized how unnecessary it is to have one.

Cause if you're getting lost in Swsh, it's time to replace your contact lenses.

 

[Deleted member]

how did someone even get a hold of the alpha anyway?

 

[TheMightyP]

I've heard that GF actually developed Lets Go! after starting SwSh, which actually kinda makes sense come to think of it.

Ok, I actually laughed at this.

 

[Aerospherology]

I wonder what the build date is to figure out what happened

There are some things about Let's Go that make me think it was what started first, such as the larger variety in battle backgrounds.

Then again, I felt like it and Little Town Hero were huge drains on SwSh's resources.

I suppose both games basically use the same engine as the menu for the Pokémon team seems to be organized the same way both in Let's Go and this debug build.

It's 26th March 2018

Apparently it's a fake?

it is, its a leak on 4chan, looks like a unity remake of the game, debug menu in different spots, etc

it has everything pokemon fans wanted, too, all of the pokemon, megas, etc

I can see Lets Go being a drain on SwSh, but Little Town Hero's budget was a sandwich and 15 bucks to pay Toby Fox.

So just about smack dab inbetween the initial tease and release. That... says alot about how development was going.

edit: cursed timing lol

Just to confirm : No, this isn't fake!

Considering the build was smack dab in the middle of development I imagine nothing was hard set in stone yet. Stuff being low quality or photoshopped doesn't really put a strain on the legitimacy of this leak because at this stage in dev placeholders did their job, and don't need to be high quality.

 

[TheMightyP]

So it's faken't? Realn't?

I don't know.

But it truly is hilarious to make memes with the stuff being shown.

And that's enough for me, lol.

 

[Aurane]

I've seen more points that it's fake rather than it being real. But I ain't picking sides.

 

[TheMightyP]

Well, looks like SwSh Alpha is going into list of games with unsolved mysteries.

 

[Deleted member]

Yo guys, look at my big Chess room

 

[KingofPhantoms]

I'd rather solve the mysterious of Luigi's Mansion beta first.

 

[Deleted member]

I dunno why but I really like this random meme format that just started appearing

Spoiler: just in case, mild swearing

I do wish we got to find out the whole context behind the creepy final scene from the original reveal trailer.

I've had one of the worst days of my life today

Apparently I ate food that had gone bad yesterday. So you could probably guess how today went.

My stomach still hurts, just less.

Nvm, on Team Fake.

...so it's fake?

 

[Z25]

What if Nasa announces they faked the moon landing.

This is 2020 I wouldn’t even be shocked, especially since it was proven to be possible lmao.

 

[Schnee117]

It's a part of that gigaleak from a while back

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Speaking of 2020. You guys heard about Japan dumping waste into their waters?

Calling it now November will be a Godzilla-esque monster rising from the depths.

 

[Z25]

Why does the Pokemon Sword Alpha have a mini map, and the regular game doesn't.

I mean it’s very obvious a direct rip of Alola’s just scaled to fit the screen. Given that the Mali City Dock rooom also seemed to be present. I wouldn’t be shocked if it’s just reused asses to start with something.

This is also GF though so then having this mess and bad of an Alpha would not surprise me

[Guh-Huzzah!]

I don’t know if anyone would care, but two kids asked me to play with them today. Usually when kids talk to me, it’s just to pester me, so that made me quite happy.

Food poisoning sucks. I've never got a real bad case of it myself, but I've seen relatives experience it and it was always difficult to get through.

Hope ya feel better soon, man.
