The "What are you playing now?" Thread

I love it! Still a touch on the backend to clean up!

A lot of the bitching about graphics, I could not care any less.

A lot of bitching about the legendary being your bicycle, loved it.

I will second all of this. SV has been a lot of fun so far

Yeah i liked having the legendary with you since the beginning. Helped develop a personality for the legendary which we never get.

If i cared about graphics I wouldn't be playing a Nintendo product. So I understand the complaints. But I can't relate. It's not game breaking for me.

I had complaints about picnicking for eggs. But even that is growing on me. You can AFK for some time and collect 10 eggs. A lot easier to breed without having to babysit the game.

I really like the Terra forms. Nice little strategic aspect to the game.

Also Shiny hunting is a blast with the Herba Mystica. Got 2 Slither Wings in 30 minutes as well as 2 paradox Amongus in 30 min.

I havent noticed too much in the way of graphical issues, but frame drops sometimes in the larger cities. Overall its tolerable

The background characters walk in like 2 fps. And if you're battling on a hill occasionally the bottom half of the screen with glitch through the world.

Again. Are they sloppy mistakes which shouldn't be in a finished product? Yes. Does it hurt my experience? No.

Finally had my first death in Callisto in the water/waste management area.

Remember, kids... shoot the tentacles!

I have def used the glitch through the world thing to get up cliffs early because I happened to start a battle with a Pokemon on top of the hill. This game looks like it might be great for speedruns if people can figure out how to go under and around things early

I found a feature I hate for the game.

The Encountered Shiny tracker. It's on your player profile. Really disheartening seeing how many I've missed by carelessly hitting A as I'm not paying attention.

Overwatch 2 has been fun

Still at 0 so far! Then again I think half the non-event/red Gyarados shinies I have encountered were all on emulator anyway

How does it compare to the first one? I stopped playing Overwatch a few years ago (around when Ashe dropped) but used to put in about 10 hours a week.

You get the shiny charm and they will start popping up.

Be aware though, it may just be me,.. but my game loads in a portion of the mons as I'm walking so I constantly have to turn my camera behind me to see what loaded in after it left my field of view

Yeah I had this problem when looking for an alt form Tauros. It took a while before I figured out half the time they are behind me.

Do the Shinys show up on the map? I know a few of them look really similar to the regular colors (looking at you Tandemaus)

Starting to get into Hearthstone. Haven’t spent a dime yet, really don’t see the need to at this point. And will probably never get so competitive that I need to. Just having fun, it’s quite addictive. Cant decide if I like it more than Legends of Runeterra or not.

Nice to have a quality mobile game to play on the go.

No they don't show up on the map. Without the over world sparkle some are really difficult to spot.

I used to love playing Yugioh Duel Links. Lost my account when I got a new phone. Gave up trying to recover it. But there's a Google Survey that I downloaded that gives you like 1 or 2 questions a day about your shopping habits and rewards you like 20-80 cents per question... nice way to get money for mobile games. The money adds up and you can use it for on game purchases
