PO'D About Pokemon X And Pokemon Y!

[mbcrazed]

I might as well and Delete this... I didn't mean for people to get so hyped up about this... It was a my mistake! an Immature one!

I think it's funny people think that the Pokemon fanbase is mature.

There's still a pretty large appeal to kids there.

 

[emigre]

Pokemon is made for kids, played by teens/adults
Call of Duty is made for teens/adults played by kids..

And both are essentially the same game released over and over again...





Actually, I think I'm being harsh to CoD there.

Yeah, I saw that image on Reddit a few days ago.

I still thought it was just stupid and it's also on r/gaming which is full of the dumbest little shits on the internet next to r/atheism.

...At least they're not marketing to the older demographic.

They do market it to the older demographic too, Masada told us to tell our friends, family and colleague at the office about the announcement after all. It's a game for anyone, accessible but deep if you want it to be.

I personally play Pokemon for nostalgia sake, I'm 21. None of my younger siblings,cousins or relatives play Pokemon, they actually refer it to an easy kids game. Most 10 year olds would rather spine-rip someone in Mortal Kombat than catch a weedle

dat rage. Picture is hilarious and true. Mostly true, anyway. Since pokemon's target audience is kinda half and half.

Exactly! Play it for the greatness of what it is!

As is Call of Duty's.

Also I only rage at r/gaming because it's just terrible. It's everything that's wrong with gamers as a whole.

Yeah, I've seen some sub reddits that make 4chan look like the crowning jewel of the internet.

I just have one complaint: the new Pokemon. :/ Everything else looks so artsy, different, and more developed.
But the Pokemon shown... The art style is really different and chibi-ish or I don't know how to describe it... Meshed with the old Pokemon it looks strange.

It just seems to be a bunch of gamers talking about games they like, at least to me. But to each his own.

Pokemon has appeal to both kids and adults. Nothing wrong with either age group playing it.

They're just hidden variables that people who enjoy ruining how the game is meant to be played discovered in an attempt to think Pokemon could be "competitive" or has "legitimate tournament play".

Well aren't you arrogant. First you dismiss the Smash Bros (Melee) competitive scene and now Pokemon.

Quit crying.

It just seems to be a bunch of gamers talking about games they like, at least to me. But to each his own.

Basically it's broken down like this:

• LOOK AT THIS NOSTALGIA posts. Most of the "Anyone remembers THIS GEM????" shit or "This was my childhood" shit. Just obnoxious, no one played your shit games.
• The Flavor of the Week Karma Train. Basically whatever game was recently popular people just milk karma from it. Most recently it was Far Cry 3.
• Le memes with le video games. Just shit memes cropped badly into a video game context. Mostly the "Good Guy X" or "Scumbag Y" posts. Not funny.
• People with no life making boring fanart or people with no life stealing other people's fan art and posting it for karma.

In video form:

Well aren't you arrogant. First you dismiss the Smash Bros (Melee) competitive scene and now Pokemon.

Quit crying.

Oh god you actually think Pokemon has a legit competitive scene.

Oh god.

oh god

Catching a weedle sounds like some sort of STD, or maybe a sex act in general.

Unfortunately, no. The problem is, with Reddit's voting system and the huge amount of members, it devolves into an endless circlejerk. Most of the posts end up as "Does anyone remember *popular title from the last ten years*?" "Look what I found in my basement?" "Down with EA/Ubisoft/Unpopular publisher of the moment/etc." "Hey, let's enjoy the humor in this game by rehashing the jokes endlessly!" etc.

It's for comedy, sure, but this video captures it all pretty well:


EDIT: And looks like Guild beat me to it. Huh.
