Would YOU even TRY to play a fighting game if you heard it had "Overwhelming mechanics?"
Wew lad.
mabel go to bed

That is the only way I would ever consider playing a fighting game. I don't like random chance playing a huge role in whether I win or lose a game. If the mechanics are complicated enough to where one can gain skill and thus raise their chances of winning by practice and study, then I think it would be worth it.

This review was written by a female wasn't it?

This thread should die
No, I wouldn't even try to play a Pokémon game with a measly 14 Pokémon.
>>330966545
reminds me of DoA.
>>330966615
Oh you mean the typical size of a fighting game roster? Smaller rosters are better for competitive play anyways

Why the fuck they made it 3D in the first place I don't know. Fuck that gay ass Naruto shit, it sucks dick.

They have to actually animate the Pokemon and give them a well thought out moveset.
That being said, I have no idea if Pollen is good or not or if the clones are really lazy clones.
>>330966776
Just like Tales of games. It's not that complicated.
>>330966296
>Overwhelming mechanics
Why are all the journalists and game reviewers so fucking casual?
You're supposed to put your time and effort into these games to actually learn how they play. Not everything has to be made from the same mold.
>>330966776
Probably because it was a new idea that hasn't been done before?
Besides from what I can tell that part of the game works quite well. The phase shift makes the game more interesting that simply locking your opponent in a combo and juggling them from zero to death.
>>330966837
So...I was right, then?
My favorite Pokemon is Mewtwo, Anon. ;) I'm just willing to admit how shitty it is that there are so few characters.
>>330966296
Jesus fucking Christ, why would anyone expect a fighting game to be simple?
>>330967182
Smashfags
>>330966768
Shedinja is not in this game, and I am still excited to play.
>>330967116
The roster size is pretty typical though. And all the characters seem pretty well done.
You just want it to be playable with 700+ Pokemon.
>>330967116
A fighting game has to have some level of sensibility when it comes to mechanics and a move-set. What the fuck is the point of animating a caterpie to be able to eventually fight charizard or mewtwo?
>>330966929
They play a very wide variety of games and look at superficial things to point out in order to finish their reviews. They don't really have time to get into a game and fully understand its systems.
Game reviewing is super flawed, most reviewers rush through games in easy.
There's only one thing I dislike about this game. It's the textures. A lot of the pokemon still look very cartoony and have drawn on anime eyes and cartoon anatomy.
But then they have realistic, painstakingly defined fur. It's fucking jarring. It looks the worst on Lucario and Suicune I think. Pokemon without fur don't seem to look that bad.

At least one of every type would've been nice.

Oh, fuck off.
>>330967783
>just over ten
Actually, 16 is closer to 20 than 10.
>>330967914
I keep forgetting that there are two of Pikachu and Mewtwo.

Even if it's your job you're not going to be thrilled about every single assignment, and doing anything constantly will lead to burnout and lower-quality work. The biggest problem is that the review system is flawed, but the next biggest is obsessive fans expecting every reviewer to be as big of an expert on any single franchise/genre as they are when it's part of their job to bounce between titles constantly.
>>330967986
Pikachu Libre and Shadow Mewtwo look like they play pretty differently, at least
>>330967561
Haha where is this from

It wasn't always like this.
>>330968302
I guess so, but why not just make them Hawlucha and Deoxys or something?
>>330968186
No fuck you. These people are clearly not qualified to do the only job they are asked to do.
IGN is a big site, are you trying to tell me that they dont have anybody who knows about fighting games?
If so why not? Why should a shitty site like that exist?
Reviewers have shown plenty of times that they have no clue about their own job. There is no defending them.
>>330968379
some european reviewer on gamekult

>>weebshaming
Jesus fucking Christ, thus is why /a/ and /jp/ laugh at you faggots.
Being laughed at by those boards is the most pathetic position to be in.
>>330968463
I dunno, man.
Pika Libre's Burst Attack is literally Flying Press, too.
But I'm just happy that there aren't any clones on the roster.
>Graphics and animation
I don't think it'd be much of a game if it didn't have those
>>330968608
There are two Mewtwos on the roster, dude.
>>330968608
They're taking one Pokemon's schtick and attaching it to one who is completely derivative of the first.
It's like if instead of putting Gardevoir on the roster they just added Gallade but he only used special attacks and danced around.
>>330968695
I mean moveset-wise

No, you're using a completely foreign word unnecessarily to be pretentious and don't pretend it's anything else you elitist faggot.
Also it's fucking Pokemon.
>>330966296
Isn't part of fighting games the overwhelming mechanics?
Isn't it?
Isn't it git gud or go home?
How is that a downside?
>>330969428
Thanks. This got me really hyped.

>don't read IGN, least of all their reviews

They're writing for their audience which is a smart thing to do.
>>330969428
That was beautiful.
It looked like Goku fighting Freiza, but in real life.
Right down to the way he won, with a Thunderbolt into a finishing move, akin to when Frieza attacks Goku as he flies away and he counters with a giant blast.

Then you have terrible taste and need to reconsider your life choices.
I haven't been following this so I didn't even know the roster was finalized. That is a fucking pathetic selection of Pokemon.
