Pokemon Showdown Supremacy continues
also you cant do singles 6v6 lol
Someone in the replies is saying turning off IPv6 fixes it and I just want to say Game Freak I'm a huge fan, no one understands those funny numbers.
also apparently its not by gamefreak, its by the company that made the bad Gen 4 remakes
that explains so much
It's so stupid how these companies that used to do low-stakes demakes/ports of games are now doing remakes and spin-off titles and fucking up in increasing amounts.
It's almost like companies handing out work to the lowest bidder results in much lower quality products. I wonder if someone ever wrote something discussing that idea?
I have a conspiracy theory about this. There was a brief period when Nintendo had great third party games coming out of its first party franchises, and then it suddenly stopped and we entered the slop era - I believe it's because the company made this an official policy to make their first party dev teams look better by comparison by only giving licenses to cut rate developers (and also screw them over with impossible schedules, low budgets, etc). That's why we will never see titles like F Zero GX (Sega) or Zelda the Minish Cap (Capcom) again.
If the games sell well either way, what's the incentive to spend more money and time on development?
i believe this and now i will blame Nintendo for the fate of Pokemon Mystery dungeon and Pokemon Ranger
And Pokemon Conquest which was Tecmo Koei
God those were two great games
