@TheTrueVanguard I just am not here for an extraction game so it isn’t my wheelhouse. Like I tried it, and I did good my first 8 games but I didn’t care about the loot, I didn’t care to win or lose it, it just didn’t matter to me.

Marathon is stuck between a rock and a hard place. It's an incredibly good game, but the more casual audience seems to be avoiding it. But if they dumb the game down, it will be considerably worse and I'll likely stop playing it. It's basically a phenomenal game that doesn't appeal, I guess, to a wider audience. I'm not sure what exactly the solution is, maybe it's better strategic marketing and creative efforts to onboard new players. I'm not sure. But dumbing the game down would likely fix nothing. You might get new players to temporarily try it, but then they're playing a considerably less inspired game and will bounce off it. I also think the truly bizarre pre-launch hate campaign was SUPER weird. Like, gamers can be such strange people and I say that with peace and love. But I'm not sure I've ever seen a global predisposition to hate a game the way I saw it with Marathon. People were literally parroting the exact same sentences for months, almost like they had talking points and were collectively regurgitating them. Like the places where gamers hang out (YT, Reddit, Twitch, X, etc) had posts or something hating the game that circulated so much that people just latched onto them. I dunno. Either way, it didn't do the game any favors. I'm not sure what the best path forward is but good marketing and a positive outward image might help. And the vault wipes are definitely a good thing, that's totally necessary. But I think diluting the game to make it more palatable is the wrong play personally. Short term gain maybe, but over time will actually hurt retention I think.

@skylwer @Kal_El_0724 @thats_sew_kim Ohhhh maybe for sure.

@santafake98 @Kal_El_0724 @thats_sew_kim They definitely have the capacity for it. But also ILCA developed this so who knows. I think it's locked so that it matches performance on mobile when it releases

Am I the only one that thinks everyone is being too dramatic about Champions…

@skylwer @Kal_El_0724 @thats_sew_kim No that’s completely fair, I noticed it too when playing. 60 should have been the minimum for sure. Hopefully that’s something they can do?

@Kal_El_0724 @santafake98 @thats_sew_kim I want it to be higher fps and it should, but also performance locked to 30fps for a battle sim where you don't move around at all isn't the main thing to complain about imo

@EeveeStevey @thats_sew_kim Kind of where I’m at, I wish we had at least a few more items at launch, but I look forward to seeing what they add and how the meta will be for this launch. Excited to use some pokemon that wouldn’t stand a chance in the sc/vi meta lol.

@thats_sew_kim Disappointed about the bugs and glitches but I think everyone freaking out about the items needs to chill. They’ll obvi get released later like the rest of the pokemon and not having all the items will make for an interesting meta we haven’t really had before.

@Kal_El_0724 @thats_sew_kim I disagree that all items should have been in it from the start, but they definitely should have had more. It wont be doa because the ease of access will get a lot of people into it, but I hope they do add more features and items soon. Some bug fixes for sure too!

@thats_sew_kim It’s pretty bad. A game that is performing worse than ScVi and is just a battle simulator is honestly dead on arrival. Then to top it off there are modes, features and items all currently nonexistent that make this unplayable for longtime competitive players.

@JoeMerrick I was wanting to try a facade flame orb idea with snorlax to find out flame orb isn’t in game. Definitely a shame that there are so few options. I hope the game expands to offer more quickly.

It's undercooked. While I can deal with a limited Pokémon pool, there's barely any competitive items, some mechanics are seemingly not working as intended or in a logical way This game seem to have come in too hot.

I'm going to say it VGC should be on Scarlet & Violet until Winds & Waves is out

製材所作りました🌳 #ぽこあポケモン #ぽこポケ

豆腐建築でも、屋根を1マス出っ張らせれば大分豆腐感は払拭できると思ってる 加えて平らな屋根の方が外装の拡張性を個人的に感じるので、日当たりの良い屋上、それに続く階段、単色だと味気ないのでとりあえず花や植物、柱や床に違う建材を使ってコントラストを… できた! #ぽこあポケモン #ぽこポケ

ぽこ あ ポケモン 家造りの手順メモ ①床と柱 今回は12×8 柱は床面から高さ4 ②壁と煙突 暖炉を仮置きし、その上に煙突。 煙突中に内火力発電マシンを建設します。 ③屋根の取り付け 今回は家の左右から三角屋根にしています ④飾り付けをして完成 煙突内の火力発電マシンが出す煙もアクセント

@Zendaya we gotta talk about the drama.
