>>40430889my life feels like an odd loop
while pokemon, which has always been my escape and i'm sure that counts for many of us, feels a lot like is slowly deteriorating, and rely too much on battle-gimmicks rather than exploration and adventure.
I will say, filling up a good roster of teams and battling online has been the main reason i've reached 999hrs playtime in some games, but that was before the gimmicks began, it's refreshing, but shouldn't be the headline of the games.
