Someone playing a 2D mario game as their very first platformer might not realize things like: 1) hold B to run 2) hold jump button to make a high jump vs tap to make a small jump 3) hold jump button when landing on an enemy to bounce extra high as well as just having general problems with momentum --- THIS IS WHAT I HATE A BOUT EVREY WEBSITE!!

None of that stuff is an issue though if you play smart those issues mostly promote a playstyle of picking a 4-5 pokemon team before even starting the game, and then catching those pokemon and nothing else. I guess you could call it playing smart in terms of efficiency but like... I don't want to play a game where I feel like I am being punished for not spoilering myself beforehand? Part of the fun of pokemon is seeing what pops up and building teams out of cool things that catch your eye, and having shared exp makes this reasonable to actually do. Wild pokemon tend to be horribly underlevelled and so don't leave much room for experimentation if you have to waste exp training them up from being far behind to start with --- THIS IS WHAT I HATE A BOUT EVREY WEBSITE!!

The_Scarecrow posted...he confirmed to us that every Pokmon in your party gets equal experience automatically as you progress through the game. honestly this is one of the best things pokemon has done, the only problem is that I don't trust them to tune the rest of the game to match since they havne't in the past it lets you catch new pokemon to swap into your team without feeling like you're throwing away a ton of exp. It lets you use a full party without feeling like you're missing out on actually being strong. it gives you a lot more freedom in how to play and prevents the issue where one pokemon gets so ahead that it just stays ahead forever because it's the strongest and therefore fights the most --- THIS IS WHAT I HATE A BOUT EVREY WEBSITE!!

There's also the fact that reading- serious literature at least- is considered more of an "active" activity whereas TV/video games are often more passive. It's actually takes mental focus to read for many hours at a time, whereas any neckbeard can spend all day playing vidya. shouldn't it be the other way around? video games are the only one of these where a lack of effort or competence on your part will actually prevent you from progressing.
