Yeah that's fair

[Liftea 11]

you have a sense of growth if scaling is done right

[Icecl Keyheart 13]

like kh2

[Liftea 11]

which unfortunately most games don't have

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

An issue with a lot of JRPGs though is how normal battles always feel trivial which isn't a bad thing. But it can become quite boring as well

[Liftea 11]

yeah like kh2

[Liftea 11]

for example

[?Snow? 2]

do you get a choice or is this really forced

[?Snow? 2]

cuz the main target for this game is still kids

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

Maybe the kids are more epic than this

[Liftea 11]

I think it's forced because Game Freak doesn't want people to 1 shot all enemies like they did in the past

[?Snow? 2]

kid me beat everything with my starter uwu

[Icecl Keyheart 13]

i mean its a post game thing so maybe its ok?

[Liftea 11]

because sword and shield was heavily criticized for bad level pacing and bad combat

[?Snow? 2]

i totally understand why people want challenge

[Liftea 11]

they are basically listening to the playerbase

[Liftea 11]

which is good

[?Snow? 2]

but making it a choice is better

[?Snow? 2]

for next game atleast

[Liftea 11]

or maybe pokemon gets level pacing because the dlc has barely any content and they want to stretch the amount of game time ?

[?Snow? 2]

all the pokemon drama was exhausting

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

Dlc is 30 bucks right

[?Snow? 2]

arent they both for 30$

[OrpheusJoshua 126]

Ah yeah

[Icecl Keyheart 13]

I'm also definitely not the person to listen to for the future of Pokemon I want to play these games to collect cute monsters and battle them I really don't care about quality of story or competitive or whatever personally I really like the sword and shield because they gave me exactly what I look for in the series
