Just to be clear on the game we’re talking about I remember monster galaxy having a wheel that had to be clicked at the right time on green to determine the power of the attack. But yea it was a lot of fun and brings back so much nostalgia.

    I used to play monster legends so much when I was younger, never spent any money on it though. I stopped playing because of 3 reasons: the waiting times were ridiculous, taking multiple days for anything to happen; the PvE became absurdly difficult because every fight was pretty much a boss battle; and everyone starting using cheats to hack in the strongest monsters and items because nobody wanted to grind or give them money, so PvP became nearly impossible for a kid who didn't know how to do any of that.

    Thank you so much for featuring Grimmlins Tale, Lockstin! Your kind words especially for all of the design mean a lot coming from a creative designer like yourself!
    For anyone who doesn't know, Grimmlins Tale is a mostly solo developed project so far. I've been at it for almost 2 years now working myself as hard as I possibly can. But it's truly awesome and rewarding to see my game played by a big, creative, fun youtuber like Austin, even if it's just in its humble demo state for now.
    I definitely got a few laughs out of some of the stuff from the other games too. And supporting Coromon is always good for the genre. Great work, man!

    It's definitely gotta do something with how the game was original on Facebook since like the early 2010's. Fortunately, the designs are a lot more creative now (most of the time) and are pretty dope. As for the names though.... Uhh... Not as much.

    I've had this growing frustration with the VERY long-running trend of calling anything in the Monster Collection genre a 'Pokemon-like/clone' The majority of the time, this is an extremely surface-level look at the game and calling it a clone for DARING to be in the same genre as another game. You know what games had Monster Collection before Pokemon? Shin Megami Tensei and Dragon Quest V. So is Pokemon a clone of those? Apparently not because people still compare SMT and the Dragon Quest Monsters spin-off to Pokemon.
    It's important to recognize what a game is actually like. Some games are very obviously trying to capture the very specific feel and ideas of Pokemon. While others share absolutely NOTHING with Pokemon beyond using monsters as party members. It's usually very easy to tell when a game is heavily influenced by Pokemon.
    1: A major focus on types and type advantages, to the point where it becomes the main component of battle, is typically the major way a game feels like Pokemon. Of course most Monster Collection games have types, but it's how the types are used that change the feel.
    2: Another way games feel like Pokemon is simply due to the angle. Pokemon has kept this 'over the shoulder, health/stats to the side' style for it's entire lifespan, only ever changing in the 3D games. Obviously other games often have this angle, even non-Monster RPGs. But you can very clearly tell when the positioning of monsters and the menu is meant to replicate Pokemon.
    3: Games trying to be like Pokemon also commonly have a 'be the best, beat these totally-not-gym-leaders' structure. Even if becoming the best is a common theme in Monster Collection, Pokemon does it in a very specifically structured way.
    4: Evolution is also done in a specific way in Pokemon. Most commonly through levels, but sometimes items, trade, or a couple other specific ways. And they never, EVER, go above 2 evolutions in a linear path, even if it might have branching evolutions.
    Also worth saying that just because a game is mimicking Pokemon, doesn't make it bad. But they have a much harder time standing out from it and all the other games that try to do the same. And that they don't represent the genre as a whole.
    If I were to place the games in this video on whether or not they are actively TRYING to be Pokemon, it'd be like this;
    Animorphs: No. The structure is simply entirely different, along with no types. The formula of Animorphs just lends itself well to collecting animals.
    Coromon: Yes. Obviously. Types camera position, front and back sprites, evolutions. It's all very blatant in it's inspirations.
    Grimmline Tale: Of what little there is, no. Pokemon has never had non-turn based combat in it's mainline games. Even Legends Arceus is still ultimately turn-based. I'd compare it more to Ni No Kuni.
    Ultramon Fight: Well yeah. It's a literal bootleg game. And I've played my fair share of bootleg mobile games. For the likes of both Pokemon and Digimon actually.
    Monster Legends: Well, no. It's just a generic stock-standard mobile game using monsters instead of whatever else this exact same mobile game format uses, nothing overtly Pokemon about it.
    As if my long comment wasn't evidence enough, I'm very passionate about this genre. It's my favorite. And I can't help but take videos like these as an opportunity to try and at least explain that, JUST because a game involves collecting monsters, does not make it a Pokemon Clone. I know it's just a standard clickbait title to get people attention on this Pokemon channel, I just wanted to express my thoughts on why I find the mentality that some people genuinely have towards this genre.
    And if Lockstin ever did do more videos like this, thought I'm sure he'd still title it 'Pokemon-likes,' I'll give my thoughts on the games and whether or not they are actual Pokemon-likes, rather than just games in the Monster Collection genre.

    I re-read animorphs this year and I CANNOT BELIEVE that it was written for kids. That was a book series with the moral "there are no winners in war". Literally most of its main characters die gruesomely by the end. It's my favorite book series of all time its so good

    Monster Hunter Stories is also a semi Pokémon like and is freaking amazing. Definitely should check it out if you haven't already. The first one is for 3DS only but the second is on both switch and steam (both with demos available). You don't exactly need to have played the first for the second but it helps you understand the story just a slight bit better.

  • @babyboi3910
    @babyboi3910 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I absolutely LOVE monster legends, and i totally agree with your opinions on it. It's very pay-to-win, and those aspects have just become worse over time. However, it has a lot of upside you can see after you get your first mythical monster. It has a surprisingly deep and thought-out story (at least for the kind of game it is), and once you get past the early days, the designs and battles are really good and fun! there's a huge amount of strategy in it, and while you usually need to have the best monsters to win (anything with "pierce" is almost an auto-win) i still think it's at least a decent game with a lot of pros compared to its cons (and it's definitely better than almost all the other "monster collection" games on the appstore). the designs, animations and overall art quality for the mythic monsters are absolutely incredible, almost all of the monsters you saw were from 2016 and only some of them (like pandalf and firesaur) got a graphical update in like 2019. my point is, i feel like it's at least a *little* more worthwhile than your average appstore garbage.

    • @amirulamani1487

      Oh my gosh, another Evo Creo fan. It was really fun for me, but I think I found a glitch when I was surfing in lava and I got stuck and can't mount out from the lave pit, and I think I saved to fight a boss, so I got stuck. And I was really at the end game and was too lazy to do it all over again. Also in the demo version, there's like a boss at the cliff we started, since I can't get the full version yet, i just kept grinding and beat that boss around the starting areas
