>>16650537>If you don't want to waste time playing video games, why bother? Words put in my mouth. I never said or implied anything like this.
I said that breeding was incredibly grindy. There are a multitude of ways to "waste" time, some of them are fun, some of them are not. Riding your bike back and forth and in circles falls into the latter category, unfortunately, and it's a really mundane barrier to breeding Pokemon worth of competitive battles.
Your analogy is also retarded because the breeding mechanics in Pokemon aren't necessary to actually complete the game in any fashion. You can pretty much ignore it entirely, it's largely post-game shit you do for the sake of raising a competitive team.
>Why not buy yourself a new game, download a 100% completed save file and be done with it? You spent 0 time playing the game and you completed everything! Isn't that what you want?Not really, but if people want to do this, I don't see any reason why they can't. Thankfully you don't really need to do that anymore; if there's a game I want to experience without actually playing, I'll just go on YouTube and watch a walkthrough of it.
