The Extra 500 Tenders Was an Easy W

“Nintendo-quality”

looks at Pokemon Scarlet and Violet

:neutral_face:

Run the same 1 or 2 IPs into the ground?

Aren’t these 2nd party games from Gamefreaks?
I rather speak for the EAD-developers.

Quite far away from the truth.

Look, I’m critical about some things that Bliz does, but I have to ask, what drew you to this conclusion?

Repeating patterns from the past, to make it short. The typical “we know better” but then stepping back and bending the knee-reaction when everyone criticizes them.

It’s on Nintendo to push for a certain standard, and they were/still are okay to ship SV to the public in its current state despite knowing it has/had a ton of bugs and performance issues.

I guess quality isn’t simply a function of the producers wealth. :dracthyr_shrug:

What is the alternative?

Seriously. Genuinely asking.

They put out their goal. Listen to feedback. Changed.

Isnt that literally what you want?

Pokemon is co owned by Nintendo.

I guess what I mean is, people that got the achievement got the tenders. Those that didn’t, didn’t. So, how is it that they didn’t intend to give them in the first place?

Is it really this bad? I heard stories about the game having a few bugs, but I’m still somewhere in the Hawaii-3DS games.

Remove the head, put someone better in charge.

Because it is just code. They added a line to the reward, where +500 tenders is added. It’s a fast fix and doesn’t require a full blown server maintenance. They might or have not done this to calm the storm, we will never know.

Bornakk, in the future, 2 things.

  1. Better communication.
  2. Just give out a 500 tender bonus to people as thanks for playing the game. These sorts of gratuities should be semi-common, but with WoW they’re rare.

Also, if you guys and gals are creeping up the prices in the trading post before unveiling tender bundles in the cash shop… just don’t. For the love of god, just don’t. It will not go over well.

Yep. It is really that bad. In the base game they improved the performance issues a little bit, but there’s still graphical glitches and fps drops just about everywhere, and you can’t always predict them, and that’s before mentioning the various bugs that persist to this day. And the subsequent DLC they have added actually has worse performance/bugs than the base game, which makes even less sense.

There is a possibility that you’re correct, however, this whole fiasco was because of Wowhead’s article that speculated the extra 500 tenders could have been a bug.

Edited to add: Also, because it’s a reward for the achievement and no one knew why not everyone was getting it.
