(You should play Cassette Beasts)
Pokemon.rpm
Pokemon AppImage
I can’t say if dislike appimage or snap more 🤔 I guess snap, because you can create a pkg that just installs an appimage as if it was a normal package 🤔
How long do you think it would take to build Scarlet/Violet from their binaries?
Pffft…Pokémon? I only do Pacman. Did mention I run Arch? I run Arch, by the way.
Well, for pokemon, I guess you would use yay, wouldn’t you? I mean minecraft has to be installed from AUR as well, and I have never used pacman to install from AUR, is that possible?
Cassette beasts is awesome. I hope we can get more good monster collection games. I need to find the time to try palworld.
I played Monster Sanctuary for quite some time and found it quite charming. I don’t know how it compares to Casette Beasts though.
Apparently the company’s history is kinda sketch and the owner (I think) was talking about being able to use AI to generate new Pokemon and bypass copyright. They’re also using some stock unity assets.
TL;DR it’s no cassette beasts in terms of heart put into it as far as I can tell.
I think we need to get over the issue of stock assets. Not everyone is artists and games take years to make. Games with stock assets that have put time and love into mechanics shouldn’t be punished. AI is a different discussion entirely of course.
Stock assets do not mean asset flip. Asset flips are such because the game and systems are primitive with very little effort taken.
I think I didn’t express myself correctly, I don’t have an inherent problem with using preexisting assets, I just think that some of the assets used don’t fit with the art style at all and feel super out of place.
That just says “very little effort taken” to integrate that asset to me. I don’t think “asset flip” necessarily but it does bother me. It doesn’t feel consistent.
I mean, that’s fair. I wasn’t expecting game-of-the-year out of it. I really don’t care about stock assets as long as they don’t distract from the game.
I’ll be totally honest though: pokemon is one of the highest grossing media franchises of all time, I couldn’t care less about folks taking good ideas from them. Their new games are clearly rushed and play badly with bad stories.
I can sympathize with that to a certain extent but this just seems like a shameless cash grab to me. It’s one thing to take good ideas and build on them, it’s another to repackage them just enough that the main goal is avoiding copyright issues.
ScarVio and SwSh were shameless cash grabs, especially ScarVio. Gamefreak is insanely lazy now. I’m totally cool with a company jockin their style and making a game that’s more fun (and runs above 10FPS)
Cash grab or not. They got the formula down for a fun game. Good for them.
Pokemon Docker.
Docker! Docker!
Docker evolved into Podman! Podman forgot daemon and learned rootless!
