Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?



One of us! One of us! One of us!

Speaking of Pokemon; I'm not sure about the remakes but the original Hoenn has a terrible level curve and the worst Victory Road. And before you ask, Johto is also guilty of this but Hoenn is not blameless either.

imo XY's victory road was worse than RSE's for exactly the opposite reason

it's too easy <_<

ok not as easy as GSC's but that is another story altogether (and i can't remember it at all other than being simple)

I haven't played X/Y or the Gen 3 remakes.

But no part of any Pkm game is difficult. As a kid? Sure. You didn't level your Pkm correctly, didn't teach them good moves, didn't understand weaknesses or puzzles etc. But as an adult? They're all easy games unless you play it with some challenge like with Nuzlocke rules or for a speedrun.

XY's victory road is literally a straight line with some curves

Not that Reimu needs me to validate his gen 2 hate but in addition to that, Gen 2's Victory Road was literally Gen 1's, but with all of the puzzles and trainers removed, save the rival fight at the end. And like most of Gen 2, the wilds were pretty low leveled. That said, they were things that exploded on you and used Confuse Ray, so there's that.

I agree though, no Pokemon game is hard, except the Battle Frontier style post game extras.

Well, if you don't consider "entertainment" valuable, then... yes. >_>
I don't consider Minecraft, Terraria, etc. to be entertaining. But then again...

Unpopular Gaming Opinion: Multiplayer is vastly overrated.

uh oh

I actually think SP and MP is 50/50. On the one hand you have stuff like CoD, WoW, LoL. On the other you have stuff like GTA selling millions (not just 5), TLOU, Assassin's Creed, Dragon Age, etc. Simply put, different strokes for different folks.

The Pokemon games are not that difficult, but I dislike the lack of diversity in the Victory Road. Since most of them are rock-infested caves leveling up your fire and flying types there is not a pleasant experience (Fire being one of my favorite types)

While I'm OK with the expansion of Battle Frontier in Emerald the post game is just like Johto's; no place to grind if your team is in their fifties and beyond.

Gen I has a worse level curve near the end imo

What's wrong with Hoenn's Victory Road, aside from obviously having the best theme?

i wasn't even trying to hate on gen 2 there

also wild stuff exploding and using confuse ray is practically a series tradition by now

rip random electrodes in ORAS i wanted to catch

That's arguably false as a lot of things are usually there as expectations from others or competitions that present you the goals.
sorry for bumping a five day old argument but this is a totally solid point

now lets start a minecraft themed competition

Dante's Inferno is a decent hack-and-slash game that despite being based on The Divine Comedy doesn't claim to be a faithful representation of said work.

:awe:

"you can be creative!"

"hmmm, noooooo..."

and dante's inferno was awesome even though it's nothing like the comedy. using death's scythe to venture through hell and kill demons? YES.

But gen 1 gives us Koga and Sabrina at the middle of the story not at the end (especially in yellow)

While I agree Hoenn's Victory Road has the best theme grinding there is not as fun. Especially the low levels and roars/whirlwinds/confuse rays
