Does anyone think D/P is too slow?
I've been playing Pokemon Diamond for some time, and when I went back to LG, battles and text seemed so much faster.
Practically every animation takes longer, including Pokemon animations, move animations, HM animations, surf, etc Does anyone agree that the D/P versions feel much more slow-paced? |
Yeah, everything has been slowed down a notch, even if everything's on the fastest speed possible with no battle animations and fastest text, the gameplay still feels slow.
The only thing that's seemed "faster" is the ability to run inside with the Running Shoes. |
yeah its too slow it bores me some times when i have to wait

oh god yes! its terribly slow paced!

I feel the opposite. Am I wrong? When I play the GBA, the wild Pokémon move very slowly from the left to the right side of the screen (before it says "Wild ~ appeared!") and the bike seems slower, too. You can't run inside buildings. I don't feel the rest of the animations faster, though.
Snap96, do not link to other forums in any way. -POST DELETED- |
@Shiny Umbreon: compare the surf speed, and also compare the average animation length of an attack. You'll see what I'm talking about.
|
Sorry but I think I'm gonna have to disagree. Try going to options and selecting fast text speed or hold down A with good timing when reading. =P

It is slow, and now D/P bores me, but i have to say none of the pokemon games had smooth animations, they just had to make it slow.
|
can't they make ONE GAME with the RIGHT speed?
FR/LG/R/S/E is a little TOO fast (even for me) D/P is SLOOOWWW... |
I disagree. The speed of D/P was never a problem with me, nor was it in older Pokemon games. And if you are going to tell me to look at Surf or do a battle, well it's just you then not me.
|
If I had the choice to lock the lousy 2 framed Pokémon animation, everything will be so much faster!

I would perfectly agree with you. If you play D/P for a day or two, then play the 3rd Gen games, you'll notice the difference in speed.
|
DP does seem slow, but the begining is a little slow to start with and theres lots of bits where you get talked to alot and you just have to keep pressing "A"

Myabe you guys need to go into options and change the text speed? |
Erm, you do realise under options you can change the text speed?
|
People, please read before you post.
It isn't about text speed, it's about animation speed. Movement on the world map and in battles is horrifically slow. |
Yes but Text Speed is an animation as well. And Movement is fast with the bike on second gear.
|
Yeah, it's slow, but you have pretty animations to look at while you wait. :p
I think the animation's slowness can me made up for by using your thumbs on the touch screen to control the battle. It seems to speed things up a lot. |
i didnt really notice it until u said and i checked i suppose its slower in ways but its just as enjoyable so u cant really argue
but running indoors is fun and i think the battles are slower so it takes slightly longer but hey who knows? |
Yea, the battles themselves are much slower for sure, but I actually prefer it that way. I went back to playing Ruby for a while and I felt like I blasted through the Magma base at hyper speed.
Also, I do like the ability to run indoors, which helps offset the battle speed. I dunno, it felt much more relaxed and laid back to me, the way a game should feel. I didn't feel as though it was holding me back at all. It's the right speed, imo. |
I noticed, but in my opinion it has better graphics, so that's why it takes so long.
