>>41996421What the fuck are you talking about, dumb nigger?
It isn't "one sword" that is the problem.
•Get healed between battles
•Enemies have 2-5 pokemon. Even the important enemies don't have a full team of 6
•AI move selection is stupid and sub-optimal, choosing moves that do low damage
•Enemy pokemon are underleveled at every stage of the game
•When you lose all usable pokemon you only lose 500 pokedollars and get to try again
•No enemies ever hold items, not even the champion of the region
It's not "using the legendary sword makes the game easy" you dumb fucking fag. It's the fact that you can pick your starter pokemon, catch a single Normal-type, and never use anything else in the entire game, and beat the entire thing easily. There is never any impetus or reason to catch or use any of the other 398 "swords" in the game. You don't get any benefit from using them. The game is easy when you only use 2 swords.
You're saying it's totally out of the question to ask for a game where the enemy AI selects good moves and the enemies have items? A small difficulty boost to make the player use more than just Intelleon + Greedent?
>DURR BUT YOU'RE PLAYING THE GAME BORING ON PURPOSE, JUST USE OTHER STUFF!!The point, dumb nigger, is that there is literally no reason to use anything else. Why is the design of the JRPG so fucking shitty that the player has no reason to use 398 of the classes that the game has to offer? Just click Snipe Shot on intelleon for 80% of the game and you win.
