This seems like the opposite of what Amazon should be doing. They already have a problem with fake or misleading products on the store, why make it easier for them to look legitimate?

Glad they aren’t wasting time on things like notifications blocking navigation!

Sorry for the late response, but you can get them later!

Your starter will not be appreciably stronger than other tems. Most are balanced out to be somewhat usable I’m the endgame, whether it be by stats, moveset, or ability. I would argue that some starters are just better than other due to their type being hard to find until mid game and useful early on. Also, tems that don’t evolve will be way stronger in the early game, since they are somewhat balanced with tems that do evolve later on.

Don’t be scared to experiment with different tems and see if some fit your playstyle better, because of that.

There are also occasionally hidden or hard to find areas that have a very small chance to find a tem that’s only available there. These tem are usually pretty good, so you may want to spoil yourself if you want to catch them all.

Also, much like Pokemon’s IVs, tem have stats that vary. However, these numbers are visible to you. If you know you want a tem on your team, it might be worth catching a few for better stats.

Finally, unlike in pokemon where creatures evolve at a set level, tems evolve after gaining a certain number of levels after capture.

When a rerelease of a Gameboy advance game can’t be launched offline, that’s a problem. (MegaMan battle network collection)

As Gabe Newell said, piracy is a service issue. Why would I buy that collection when I can emulate my old copy instead? It’s a few extra steps, so I would rather have had it just work on steam, but Denuvo kept me from doing it. This mattered recently because I went on a vacation with the steam deck and didn’t have internet at a few points.

Sure, DRM isn’t inherently evil, but when it makes the experience worse for paying customers when compared to pirates, it really looks that way.

Also note that in this case, emulation is not piracy, but if I wanted to play the collection edition offline then piracy would have been my only option.

Am I selfish for paying money and wanting to use the software I bought a personal license to on my own, without internet? I think it’s selfish of the company to demand that I play their originally offline-only games online-only. Am I selfish to want to play the Spyro Reignited trilogy without aggreeing to an arbitration clause? I think companies have gotten selfish lately and paying customers have no choice but to either not play modern AAA games, pay and have a potentially worse experience when paying, or pirate and not deal with the technical and legal/privacy garbage surrounding modern AAA releases, including DRM. I didn’t even mention yet how if a game you purchased a Denuvo license to does not get an update to eventually remove the protection, it will become unplayable when they shut the activation server down.

I remember my first awful experience with DRM with the game Spore, where I had a period of time when I moved between or upgraded my computer enough to where I ran out of activations and could not longer play my physical copy of the game despite there not being a single current activation of the game out there. There was nothing I could do about it, because there was no way to deactivate a copy even if you knew you would be changing hardware soon. I didn’t have income then, so it left a very sour taste in my mouth. We came from physical copies we could resell, to this? DRM lets companies manage game licenses on their terms, but their terms suck.

It’s not a boomer shooter, though. It is heavily inspired by, and aims to compete with, the Battlefield series of shooters.

Love the game.
