"Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me 35 titles over 25 years, and I'm brand loyal!" No truer words have ever been spoken

[@TheOnlyTaps]

😂💯

[@Saimeren]

He said 20 years.

[@FerociousPaul]

I'm not being fooled, I know what I'm getting into. Pokemon is comfort food. I pick up the next game in the series and add to my collection, and get more or less the same experience that has remained enjoyable for two decades. I guess if you're looking for replayability then it's a problem, but I'm not. I play it once, collect my digital monsters, and I'm done until they drop another game 2-3 years later. What's wrong with that? That being said, Legends Arceus is a PHENOMENAL innovation to the series and I hope they stick with this style for gen 9 and onward.

[@ladygrndr9424]

@@FerociousPaul The only problem I had with it was when my 10yr old finished the storyline for Sword in two days (so about 10hrs), and Shield in 6hrs. $120 dollars to entertain him for a weekend was painful. Then we bought the DLCs for BOTH games, which kept him going another week. He and his best friend still play it from time to time, but only to do raids--she has all the Pokémon caught in game, but there was very little incentive for him to catch them all. BDSP was pretty much the same but that was to be expected of a remake. I had played the original, and while there was more to do than in SwSh--talent shows, the underground, and then the Elite Four being such a massive pain--there is really no requirement to complete that last part. Arceus is different--there is so much to do, and so many side quests to complete. And to FINISH the game he HAD to catch 'em all. He finally faced off against Arceus Sunday night, after a solid month of playing. I'm not there yet--I have finished my main dex and am now working on the quests for the legendaries and mythicals. My favorite thing to do is to just go from zone to zone returning satchels to people, and catching/battling random Pokémon along the way. Having the real threat of losing my own satchel if I bump into something I wasn't expecting keeps it exciting. I also love the idea of Alpha Pokémon...ridiculously gigantic wurmples and spheals makes my life complete. I love the new direction, and hope they keep going with this!

All I have to say is - This is exactly how Pokemon should be played. Because even in the Anime, stray pokemon are dangerous and powerful if you don't have one to protect you. I have never felt so afraid yet excited while facing a powerful Pokemon in the wild before. It's such a refreshing experience!

[@neowolf09]

Exactly! I think that's what the game is all about too. That people needed pokemon to defend from wild and angry pokemon, and pokemon are cared for by their masters. It really is a symbiotic relationship. And this game really makes you feel that.

[@lyndsaybrown8471]

Yeah, I think after getting stomped by the Alpha Snorlax enough times, people in modern day Pokemon games decided not to let their kids take one step in tall grass. Total Yanmega parents, am I right?

This game is easily the best Pokemon game I have played with Pokemon Black and White (as well as B2 and W2) being a close second due to how much I adored those games... honestly they don't need to make a full 3D remaster of Black and White, just pull a BDSP (though not as much as a 1 to 1 remake) and make Pokemon Legends Kyurem; you start in Lacunosa Town and have the lore surround Kyurem, you wander around for a while, you hear powerful footsteps coming from the Giant Chasm, as you approach the cave entrance, Kyurem lunges out and is about to attack when Cobalion, Virizion and Terrakion arrive to protect you from him Kyurem leaves and when you return, everyone laughs off what happened, claiming that the "Swords of Justice" would never protect a human, citing the tragedy that occurred a century ago (the one that made the trio cut ties with humans) but after you describe Kyurem, you're brought to the village elder... he/she explains that Kyurem fell to Earth a millennia ago, and has been known to descend upon Lacunosa Town during cold, dark nights to prey on the towns inhabitants! The story would have you piece together the story of Kyurem, how the heros of Truth and Ideals became enemies and how the Original Dragon came to be, with the final story boss being either Kyurem-W, Kyurem-B or even the Original Dragon itself!

4:26 Did he have to say it like that XD. Anyways, I really love this game. I've only had it for like a week and almost have played 40 hours. I recently got into pokemon more. I use to collect cards years ago and I played like a game here and there years ago, but eventually, I finally got Sword some point last year and played it so much. I got Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl the day it was released. My GF got me this game for valentines day which I didn't expect because she loves pokemon so much. She has, like, all the pokemon games that came out for 3Ds, and maybe DS. Not sure. Anyways, I love how this game ties into the other games. It is tedious to have to catch the same pokemon so many times, defeat them over and over, have them use the same attack over and over, etc. But I don't mind tedious tasks and enjoy it. Also, I like the story. I just wonder how they can push the games even further. I know the next title will probably go back to the original formula but I want more open-world type pokemon games.

I am glad they keep making pokemon games ... it means more silly names coming from HGT :D

[@Anime-Doom]

As much as I love most of the new mechanics added in PLA I absolutely hate what they did with the combat, it feels like a barely functional, stripped down version of Final Fantasy X's without any of the strategy involved and stats and levels meaning virtually nothing. Literally the worst thing the Pokémon company can do right now is carry this butchered version of the battle system into the main line games.

[@thefreshvince879]

feels like the most dumbed down pokemon go cash grab ever. sequential turns is literally so bad and it makes sense why they didnt even include pvp

[@jenellsaphid]

Pokemon has always been turn based? Literally nothing is different.

Whenever I see Mr. Mime, I wonder if he didn't suffer from a nervous breakdown from being crammed in a pokeball and forced to fight so many times. He isn't miming a box. He thinks he's still trapped inside the pokeball.

Now that you've done an Honest Game Trailer for Dragon Age, can you please do one for Batman: Arkham Origins?

Please do an Honest Trailer for Melty Blood Type Lumina.

Instantly liked the video after watching it for being the only video on KZbin that talks about this game without spending a full minute for no reason talking about how you don't know how 'Arceus' is pronounced.

[@joekurr6030]

This is exactly the pokemon game I've been asking for and I really hope they eventually abandon the main formula in favor of this open world-ish style, they just need to toss in some pokemon stadium and online lobby to perfect the experience.

[@FixerRC-]

They just announced that gen 9 will be open world

[@starsiadraws]

I would actually love a new Pokemon Colosseum game. I know it's unrealistic to ask for every single Pokemon, but I still love the idea of using the actual Pokemon you use in the main games in battle mode. Plus the minigames were so fun!

[@Joppi1992]

Please do an honest game trailer for Chess, it'll be great as a change of pace!

[@BonaparteBardithion]

When it gets to the plot section it's just a summary of the Chess musical.

Already had me subscribed at holding nostalgia at gun point lol

[@shinyheracross4091]

I will happily eat the same slop every single year. because since I was 4 years old, barely a human at all, I was catching Pokémon, grinding levels, and becoming the champion. nothing can take that away, regardless if the game isn’t as good as the last.

Congratulations, I've literally never heard Arceus pronounced that way. Yet another way to say one of the most debated names.

[@vincentdagen1812]

It's not a debate. The pronunciation is in the official Pokemon book. He said it exactly correct.

[@Ubu90]

@@vincentdagen1812 nope, not when u translate it from Japanese the c is silent, so the book is actually wrong

[@magbanuamik_]

@@Ubu90 why would u even try to translate from japanese when the official pokemon company gave the correct pronunciation? if we follow your logic all of the pokemon names in english would be wrong because they're not direct translation of their japanese names

[@nicktr.7764]

@@vincentdagen1812 The stress was always on the "A" in the movie featuring Arceus

[@Ryuji777x]

@@Ubu90 you can't say it's wrong when it's from the official source. secondly, japanese pokemon names are different from english and are therefore irrevelant. r-key-us is 100% correct. also, tell me you dont actually say 'arse phone' instead of 'ark phone'. get a clue
