>>56509681So? Why would you do that? Again, it's not interesting to just find Earthquake and teach it to your whole team and steamroll the game. It doesn't feel like you accomplished anything, it's boring. Why would the game provide you with a boring option?
>just don't use itThat's an option, but a 10 year old kid is not gonna understand that concept and will just use it, not realizing that making the game too easy is boring. (Maybe it won't make it boring for them because kids are finnicky like that, but it usually does)
>>56509683>how is giving strong tms early an issue when they just don't do thatBecause they SHOULD do it. Finding a strong TM feels good, you're like "Oh fuck yeah, Thunderbolt, now [underperforming electric type Pokémon] can stop being fucking useless". Finding a bad TM is like "oh wow it's fucking Swift, who gives a fucking shit". It doesn't feel meaningful, you're not happy to find it.
It's a SMALL powerboost, it feels good. Making you TOO strong however is not fun. You need to hit a sweet spot between "too easy" and "too hard". Look into flow theory if you don't know it, it's a very important theory in psychology that explains why it's important to make games neither too easy nor too hard.
