Those are some of the reasons why jts really popular with folks on the autism spectrum for instance. Same with Pokemon.

Pokémon has stats and numbers but it's easy to get.

The fact that other people are stupid is none of my concern

Uhhh huh?

Pokémon is popular amongst neurodivergents cause you can hyperfixate on filling the Pokédex

I never like Pokémon tho

I like Pokémon on concept, just not in practice

Pokémon is popular because you can beat it blindfolded with one hand behind your back in pretty much any installment but especially newer games

Especially the combat in Pokémon is just boring to me

Ok Sam you're doing that thing again where you're getting really heated lol calm it down bud.

And it’s not that I don’t like turn based combat, I just don’t like Pokémon combat

If this wasn’t such a common problem it would be easier for me to calm down, but it isn’t. Never was, never will be

I mean I get that but calling people stupid isn't nice

It’s a fact. Some people are smarter than others.

O k

Aka: because they’re accessible

Aka: exactly that Skaneskin said

If by accessibly you mean watered down to the point where I’m bored of them within 15 minutes

That's you tho bro lol

You aren't every gamer

Not everyone gets bored by easy game play

I mean just look at everyone that plays Animal Crossing

I’d hardly call that challenging

You mean, the original Farmville?

I’m going to do so much grinding in Code Vein.

So much.

Yet people have poured hounderds of hours into it

That’s an apples to oranges argument. Challenge isn’t the point of Animal Crossing.

Nor is it the point of Pokémon

Apples and oranges are both fruit tho

Pokémon never claimed to be challenging

Then what IS the goddamn point?!

Pokémon was made by someone to simulate going out and catching bugs

Literally
