Wild Area impressions
Now that the game is out, and we can try out the place rather than rely on images and previews and the such - what are your impressions of the Wild Area? Good? Bad? What could be better, and what's surprised you about it?
|
I love it and the fact that I can just wander around and not really be bothered by anyone.
|
One beef I have with the wild area is that you have no idea what is high levelled and what isn’t. Evolved mons make sense but then why are there high leveled normal mons? It’s also especially bad when they are common too.
Other than that I am enjoying the wild area so far. |
Haven't gotten there yet, but I've seen some ridiculously funny scenes trending and am excited to encounter one of my own. lol
|
I feel like it is very weak and empty. I like the idea of free roam, but eh... for taking up probably half the game, it just seems empty.
Not only that, it isn't completely online. You only see people if you are right next to them or something and the true day and night cycle is only in the Wild Area which is dumb and lazy. |
I really like the wild area it is good you can also talk to people and there give you stuff also the battles are fun as well
|
It is nice until you accidentally run into the level 50 Pokemon on your bike and they refuses to let you leave.
I feel they should only pop up according to level as you progresses through the gyms. The raids are kind of fun and gives you all the TRs which is beneficial, though I can't seem to find online players to help haha so I always just use NPCs. |

If this is the case, then my complaint about the Wild Area could be redundant. |
I haven’t played but I do not like the aspect of Pokemon chasing you.
|
I think one or two extra people around the wild area that will heel your pokemon saves you having to camp or go back to the beginning of the wild area when leveling up
|
The first half outside Motostoke is pretty monotonous because it's all green with trees and a lake while the latter half outside Hammerlocke is really fun because the locale is much more diverse. Also, wild Eeveelutions in the Lake of Outrage!

I love the concept but it feels.. poorly balanced? There's parts of the game where it feels like you're in a real lull, for instance right after Milo. All of your Pokemon are too strong to grind, and everything else can OHKO you.
Still, I've far from finished and I love everything about what it offers. I just think it's got growing pains tbh. |
I really really love the wild area! That being said, there are some changes I'd want. I'd want more variation on what the biomes are like. I would want a few like... narrow passages you have to cross through to get to other areas. A few mazes to get through. I want it bigger! And I kinda wish that just every ROUTE was like the wild area. On the whole, very positive - I want them to just do MORE.
|
Love it. It's such a good way of being able to easily gain access to a variety of Pokémon in one place.
Only issue I had with it, is that only specific Pokémon turn up depending on the weather, but it can be easily be solved with waiting or changing the console time, so it's not that big of a worry to me. I do enjoy being able to casually explore it, until being chased by a Bewear. |
