also scarlet and violet are the biggest Nintendo launch ever so maybe gamers just do not know what they want

the pokémon company is ambitious and genre-pushing and work on a completely nonnegotiable multimedia release schedule which includes games, tv, movies, trading cards, and home decor. that approach is simply not compatible with releasing highly-polished games. you can like it or you can hate it but you have to treat it as what it is.

“glitches are cool in 2D but in 3D i want high framerates and polish” okay but have you considered this is a completely arbitrary stance and not how computers work

i think it’s funny and says something about the changes in gaming culture how Pokémon Red and Blue, games which are notorious for being horribly broken and buggy and which it is a marvel even run, are considered some of the greatest games ever made, but Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, which are better games by basically every conceivable metric, have a user score of 2.9/10 on metacritic, citing “glitches and bad performance”

like a Leafeon with a Normal tera type could be cool but Arboliva does that better

for any of the interesting combinations there is already a pokémon which is not an eeveeloution which just has that combination by default and which i would rather use

addendum to this: the fediverse is living software and the affordances it provides are not static or stable. i AGREE with the take that new communities need space to figure out how to make those affordances work for them, but i think it historically has been EQUALLY important that those communities have an active hand in actually creating and promulgating those affordances. when the fedi started it didn't have post privacy settings, much less CWs. the queer masto community applied pressure and in some cases actively developed these affordances to meet our needs. if we hadn't we would not have been successful here
