Yeah dude it has been getting so much less fun  There are still some creative stuff ideas fortunately, but the weird fanatical anarchy helix stuff is just stupid. | ||

Don't blame the Helix Fossil but the introduction of the Domecracy | ||

It's basically the extreme of "I don't like it, it must be dumb", so often seen with games, shows (like MLP he even mentioned) and so much content on the web. | ||

I hardly think being a dick deliberately is anything else than attention-whoring, not really interesting as much as it is pathetic. | ||

Really interesting stunt by Destiny, amazing how emotional people are getting over this. They have a Zapdos, the game wouldn't be over either way. It's more that BJ is everyone's favorite. In the end it's just a nice publicity stunt on a stream dozens of times more popular than his, he wouldn't be able to have any kind of meaningful control ingame anyway. | ||

Because the run started with "what can we do?" but progressively became about what's been done, and the lore/bond developed after it. There's a difference between "let's grind the Keeper so he can guide us through the next dungeon where even out bigger guys can't compete" and "let's catch another Pokemon and grind it just because we need levels in general". Pokemon tower had some sort of gimmick to it (because they couldn't brute force it for once, and it also unexpectedly led to DigRat's redemption, a nice storyline), and Bird Jesus is simply associated with a lot of the events so he has history. Look how noone cares that most of the Safari Zone guys were released (nor did they care about them at all, though). Now I'm waiting for our All-Terrain Venomoth gets some screen time so he can hopefully develop a storyline himself, because that's what makes the stream interesting (what people come up with to bulk up/explain the events). I was very enthusiastic regarding the whole Helix/PoV the stream had, but the stalling that happened deprived people from new content to bounce off of, and the memes started getting stale because of it. Add to that that the subreddit's mass has grown and it's now akin to any other subreddit, full of "MRW", "my face when", "TFW", etc. shit that's just rehashed again and again and generally provides nothing to the story or simply entertainment. Of course it was inexorable, with the popularity growing, but it doesn't change the fact that it took away my interest in the subreddit (which originally was only a hub for all the OC created around the stream, with some meta pertaining to the stream peppered in). | ||

The artist mentioned he didn't want to put Flareon in it to avoid controversy lol. | ||

They think of Flareon as the devil since it lost them Charmeleon/Rattata. So for sure not much care for that. X-wing was about as popular as the Safari Zone cannon fodder that got released as well. | ||
