TemTem (the Pokemon-Like MMO) is NOT what I thought. 

Hey man! I love your channel

Can we talk on Twitter?

Of course i did, your videos are so funny, informative and honest how could i not like you or them?

omfg I was watching you and my niece came into my room and said oh ur watching our 2nd cousin and I'm like what are you on about and then showed me a photo dude I had no idea I was related to you I knew I had a family member with a youtube channel but I had no idea it was you such a small world

Did you know Tem tem is coming to Switch when it gets finished?

Mmmmmmmm Tim Tam..... gaallllllaaaahhhh.....

I love Tim Tams! They're such a great tasting chocolate biscuit that's commonly found in Australia. Better than Oreos and Penguin Biscuits in my opinion!

Tim tan tan tien

TimTam,the best video game of all time! Also the best chocolate biscuit of all time

What ARE Tim Tams? I don't think they sell them in my neck of the woods....

Michael Vigato honestly this whole situation reminds me of when yokai watch first came out

You mean play pokemon and the pokemon clone.

FintanSky listen, I don’t like temtem, it takes too much from Pokémon, but it’s not a full on Pokémon rip off, it has subtle differences, they may be small, but they are there

Michael Vigato *WHAT?!* 🤯

Deity Saturn honestly I had no idea either

That's word for word what I said when I saw that lmao

Yep lol

Same lol

Probly editors mistake right?

I had to pause to find others like me who thought the same! hahahaha!

Pretty stupid way imo, just punishes picking up new Temtem.

Reno Black No it just stops players from only catching high level temtems and to try and catch lower level ones as itll be quicker to evolve

Galactia7000 HD thus punishing players who catch tems at later levels lmao

@@scooterboi8296You could look at it that way shure. I like the sysyem myself people just whine that it's too pokémon like and then they whine that the should not have changed mechanics. In some ways it can't win really. People will complain either way.

@@abcgaming8938 quicker to evolve, yes, but quicker to have them battle ready? no. unless they have drastically changed xp scaling in the last couple weeks, it'd take SEVERAL hours grinding wild encounters to get a level 5 to 25. I have 36 hours in game, highest level was given to me in the story, my highest achieved naturally is only 36 and most of the temtem in my party are still 25-28, while wild encounters are level 32-35 and trainers are summoning 37-44. It's a terrible balance overall between xp scaling, battle scaling (giving you a fair fight for the rate of progress into the game), and a terrible evolution system. In order for me to evolve a 20 level evolution temtem, it would cause me to grind for almost 10 hours, assuming no server crashes or lag, and have them a feasibly battable creature based at where I am in the game, probably almost 20 hours just for one temtem that in about another hour of gameplay is going to require yet another 5-10 hours for xp grind just to get caught back up. It's like the devs want you to invest 300 hours of training in order to progress 50 hours into the game story. It doesn't matter how much you like it, it's still a terrible system. You and your partner have a baby, it's a full fledged adult after 18 years. If you adopt an 8 year old into your family, because s/he was 8 when they entered your family, are they not considered adults until they're 26?? The way I view evolutions in games like this are as a creature's physical maturity; for example, Charmander is a baby/infant/toddler, Charmeleon is a pre-teen/teenager, and Charizard is a fully matured, fully adult beasty. So for them to say "20 levels from WHEN you get them" is just a kick to the balls both for the trainers (or tamers, in this case) as well as the creatures themselves, denying them of full maturity for seemingly forever.

yeah lets be grateful of devs tearing out content that should have been in the game in the first place. YESI LOVE unfinished games and excuse as to why it did it in the first place. Have we all forgotten DLC is meant to "expand" not "add" what should have been there. Do not be grateful otherwise they will gut content more and sell it back if any other company did it we would all hate it. Since it is Pokemon we are "grateful" o.-

You must really love destiny dlc then

​@@Balbaneth I mean, you can be all snarky about it, but this has been common practice with Pokemon for 20+ years at this point. From day one the games have been unfinished and they release a secondary version that finishes it up. Gen 1 to now. So yes, I'd rather be happy that they adopted a new release style that doesn't require me to start over and play the same game again to access new content.

Balbaneth - ok but who asked

@@EposVoxThat's not true at all. You can definitely argue that games like Yellow or Emerald or Platinum didn't add enough new content to make it worth replaying the game, but red/blue and ruby/sapphire weren't "unfinished" and the new games didn't "finish" them.

@Kid 50 Thanks for proving his point, dumbass

@Kid 50 go play timtam then, im still enjoying playing with charizard since idk gameboy era maybe

@@PK7796 temtem not timtam. Or is this a joke? 🤔

@@smiwey dont you like timtam? Lol

That sounds like an awful and annoying mechanic tbh just makes it a bit of a chore

Man, that makes me appreciate more the quality of life changes that Game Freak has put into ShSw even more.

William Vogel you mean individual creature right? Because the way you worded that, it sounded like the exact same thing. lol

That sounds tedious

No wait you mean they actually encourage you to actually keep the pokemons you caught when you first started out and not switch them out as fast as you can like trash the first five minutes? I’m game

I think changing the battle system in these monster collector games is probably a make or break thing, especially if you're attracting disgruntled Pokemon fans -- IMO turned based battles where moves has to use a pool rather than each move having a pool is an interesting twist.

You are combining battle animations with battle systems, they are not the same thing.

I believe that the first comment was in reference to the fact that, yes they've implemented changes that add a great deal of strategic depth, but it's still a turn based RPG with stationary combatants. There are plenty of games that they could have looked to for inspiration to further diffentiate the combat, for instance: FF VI - real time combat elements Mario + Rabbids - grid based arenas Mega Man Battle Network - real-time grid based battles (I think, I've only ever seen brief clips of the battle system on RU-vid).

@@gowzahr , Arc The Lad: Twilight of the Spirits was doing the combat style of Mario + Rabbids nearly 20 years before that other game.

@@gowzahr I mean you could argue Temtem's style seems similar to Mario and Luigi's, each having Bro Points to use their special attacks. Turn based style is a MUST though, I feel; real time may be a turn off for many, although a "rush bonus" where you can do extra damage using real time commands could be interesting.

And there’s so much more stages to go through! I hope they mix up the random encounter mechanic

You mean that they gradually recover battle stamina, like syenergy from "golden sun"? That is really cool, because that definitely means what u just said about it.

Well , its been 1 year and now all of those problems are no more

Have you seen the Kindred Fates kickstarter? It's a pokemon like only with a BOTW style, mature story, and a real time battle system.

@@letsgetfluffy3138 Ik, tried to be short lol but I'm super pumped!

@@narutofan2312 When I saw the game's trailer, I thought it looked amazing, but when I saw that when it loses in battle and you don't return to the exact spot it died it's soul disappears, my positive opinion was immediately shot down.

@@letsgetfluffy3138 Well, then again, wouldn't that kind of defeat the purpose of the whole permadeath mechanic?

Eh a game where the devs don't give a damn abotu the players and which had a much better campgaign than what they clearly spent on the game thus far I'd say doesn't need MORE money. I get that you like the game but hey you're going to have to spend more money anyway when the updates come in. And you can still support it by buying the game for OTHER people if you're so desperate to throw money away on TEmtem. It's not that hard.

You'd be drunk

@@dabchip6412 exactly lol

I don't want to die.

Yup it doesn't have the masivly part in MMORPG as of yet. They had chat and then they had to disable it as it was making problems. It will be re enabled at some point and there are auction houses that are lablet WIP so player trading will be a thing to. Duno what other plans they have as 3rd islands where alpha stips is midgame.

Man, I'm so with you there, that was what I really wanted. I have some ideas how a dungeon would actually work, but I don't completely have faith that they won't fall into the same holes the established franchise is in.

Actually, if you have a party of 5 people, for example, they can just separate you all in the battle and each of you would fight the same monsters, which gives you advantage of lowering their HP faster. Although you can’t see other party members fighting, you still benefit from having multi people playing. And since it’s a party fight, you have to share your XP and loot with other members. That’s how they could make it MMO.

@@exerty1 Sorry if i'm retarded but what does WIP mean?

@@elijahhmarshall Work In Progress. There's literal sighs in game saying that.

Gotta tame them all!

Missed out the opportunity to say “Gotta catch TemTem all!”

GOTTA EAT IT ALL (THE COOKIES) THE KIDS WILL LOVE IT LIKE MY TEMS , TEM TEAM TEM GOTTA TAME IT ALL (YEAH YEAH)

Any price for a beta is expensive, all betas should be free imo

Jonesso Pokemon is made by an exceptionally reputable company with an absolutely massive fan base though. Temtem is made by a relatively unknown developer and isn’t even finished yet. They aren’t comparable in value. Temtem SHOULD cost considerably less than Pokemon.

@@jpsnyds753 Nah this is a dumb comment. The game is early access and if they gave it away free for early access which means everyone who downloads it owns it... Then basically it would just be a free game from beginning to end. Releasing the game as an actual game will probably cut down on the micro transactions. This game it 100 percent worth the money and this video is 3 months old they must have added a lot since then and its mechanics are smooth and crisp.

​@@deepsilver999 No game quality should determine price not it being a brand name. The pocketbook doesn't have to be guuchi to be well made and at some point you are paying for the name guuchi and not the quality. Plus pokemon has released many sub-par games lately... I mean sword and shield were good and I enjoyed them myself, but this game gives a whole new fresh feel to the creature fighting game genre and I think it is worth 35 and when it goes up in price and is a finished game it will be worth that too. The only thing a bit annoying is the games need for me to gender people sometimes, like idc this is a monster fighting game I don't wanna guess a strangers gender. I will go with sex every time until a character specifies what they wanna be called and I still won't care cause they are fake people and keeping fake peoples gender pronouns straight is a waste of my time. It is at least too often I can see one or two character in three islands saying something but I think it has come up 4 times now and I am not paying much attention like... I don't greet people with hello .... 1) sir 2) ma'am 3) themself. It is certainly worth way more than Sun and Moon though... Which were well made games that kept disrupting game play with cut scenes and hid all the unique creatures behind odd discovery methods. TemTem knows mostly what the player base wants and did a solid job of implementing most of what they could.

@@patrickbacher7881 I completely agree that a game's price SHOULD be determined by its quality, but unfortunately the fact of the matter is, Nintendo can afford to charge a premium price because millions of people WILL buy their games at $60. Given that TemTem is so unknown, regardless of the quality of the game (which despite having some great innovations, still lacks a lot of the polish of a AAA game, even Pokémon) most people wouldn't be willing to take a gamble on a game they aren't guaranteed to enjoy. Whereas with Pokémon, despite its many flaws (of which there are plenty, I know) almost everyone who buys is going to enjoy it, even if just for the pedigree, nostalgia and charm alone! Not trying to argue, I agree with many of your points! Have a good day :)

your name-

Rodrick Scorpion i played shin megami tensei way after I played Pokémon and could peep the similarities right away lol

It's only called megami tensei internationally though :plus shin megami tensei was made in 1992. I honestly didn't know it was that old 😂

So far I know Pokemon was mainly inspired by bug catching not by SMT.

@@alexiosblake9804 im guessing he/she means inspired by shin megami tensei at the catching mechanics I'm guessing.

Rodrick Scorpion rt

Same

yeah, idk what wood's problem is. I've even had rock paper scissor battles! Maybe he's just been waving at AFK players?

That or they're kids that don't really know what they're doing

I've seen quite the opposite extreme as well. Seems like there's zero to none middleground, which is why I definitely enjoyed and appreciated this review as well :)

yeah there's way more pokemon fanboys pissing all over stuff that tries to use the pokemon formula

I agree, Pokemon needs a fire lit under it's butt. Temtem, however, isn't really doing that, instead just tweaking rules a bit. It doesn't do anything new, really. It does prove that Pokemon-likes can be a genre though and if a less by-the-books dev came along that could force Pokemon to switch things up.

As cool as it would be to have a similar game to Pokémon make Pokémon games themselves improve I doubt tem tem will achieve that. It’s never gonna be big enough or different enough for it to make a significant change (the way it is now anyways)

@@hollydot9245 true plus in terms of quality it will be hard to determine if the vocal opinions are genuine or not since TemTem seems to be just a way of "getting back at pokemon" for many

@@ZackFair78 true it won't because a good portion of those fans are not focused on quality but attempting to damage the pokemon brand and if the quality is average for TemTem and is being promoted as amazing it suggests little change from the devs because why fix something that isn't broken, it'a funny how a community is creating more problems then solutions

@Mike UK 1970 In my opinion it wasn't

Toothie Tooth I was thinking the same thing. Totally up his alley I think. I already backed the game and I’m really pumped! 🤩👍

Then when describing said temtem, he called them pokemon as well, so 23

@14:45 two more here, so 25.

*"OR"* turtwig as shown in the screenshot

He said this at the end lol and beginning.

Same, if Temtem counts as a mmorpg then so does Pokemon then. Aren't people always wanted Pokemon to be a mmorpg? Here ya go. They're the same. Personally, I'm more of a casual fan. Don't care about National Pokedex and animation. But what I focus more, is the enjoyment of gameplay and story. Which I found Pokemon SwSh good at it. Starter Final evolution design could be better, Post-game is short thought, tbh.

Swag Snivy o.o post game in Pokémon is for shiny hunters / dex completionists. I think there’s a lot to be done personally. I also feel like a lot of these “Pokémon-like” games suddenly all releasing at once (temtem/kindred fates) are some of the haters that had expectations crushed in Gen8 or even Gen7 pokemon xD just my opinion though lmao could be wrong

@@levi5930 it's definitely a marketing strategy imo. Probably one of the reasons why TemTem was released with some of its aspects still in the developing stage. I'm just afraid that a game that tries to build popularity out of spite of its competitor would eventually fail unless it really establishes itself as a separate identity from its biggest competition.

That being said, as a long-time pokemon fan myself, i do feel the post game content is a bit short in terms of storyline. The post game content itself is vast, thanks to the Wild Area, but i just want a post game storyline that's a bit longer and more rewarding.

@@waltz0153 I agree this game is good however it had its faults people have been struck by one game they forget that tem tem isnt even finished yet

@jocaguz18 People are judging the game like its finished I think is what they mean. Like for example a lack of "end game" content when the game isn't even finished and complaining about how there isn't much to do. What do you expect from a literally half finished game?

@jocaguz18 providing feedback for improvement is great for early access. Critiquing it like it is a finished game sends a message that you expect it to be perfect when they release it in early access for exactly what you are saying, feedback. The critiques given in the video are valid, but should also be prefaced and explicitly conditioned with "This may be fixed in the full release, but this is what I do not like currently." But complaining about missing functions in a game that is not finished seems misguided. Just my two cents

@jocaguz18 nope just clarifying.

Yup. Im one of those that don't emote back lol

@@RO_JD not good... I'm afraid that tem tem up is inevitable

I've seen a few people play TemTem, NEVER has anyone interacted with each other that weren't partners.

I think what Wood meant it must me GOOD alternative that FEEL different. I mean, I really love FE series, and Wargroove is it's alternative. Good alternative that work on similar TRPG mechanics, have many similarity but at the same time a gem on it's own, with unique style, it's own story, battle differences... Both games are gorgeous and unique gems to love. Temtem on other hand... I agree that I feel NOTHING unique that wouldn't be a downgrade from pokemon, except, maybe some parts of battle mechanics like synergy.

Different enough to stand out and be it's own thing. To be worth spending another $35 to play an alternative version of something you already have.

@@BeatEmUps perhaps, but this is kind of like those guys that are making that game that's heavily inspired by cuphead. If you're a cuphead fan, and want more cuphead, but the people who make the game don't have a sequel or anything coming out, a "clone" will easily scratch that itch. Also, Pokemon has always been Nintendo's thing. But, the ability to play something so "Pokemon-like" on a Xbox or PS4 or even a PC (and not have to emulate), will be amazing. I'm sure this will scratch that itch for fans of Pokemon that can't afford/don't want a Switch and/or want a Pokemon experience, but are sick of Gamefreak's (mis) handling of the series. So, I don't know, man. I think if it's too much its own thing, it might not appeal to enough people. But, if it is more like a "true" Pokemon alternative, I could see that reeling in a lot of people, for the reasons I mentioned above. I guess we'll have to wait and see

@@BeatEmUps If you want something different enough you could play Yokai Watch, Shin Megami Tensei, Digimon World/Cyber Sleuth, Ni No Kuni, Dragon Quest Joker. There are a lot of alternatives out there.

@@BeatEmUps ...which TemTem is, by offering different combat mechanics, removing any randomness from battles, adding synergy and stamina... I mean, if we're being honest, the gameplay of the last three Mortal Kombat games isn't really that different from the gameplay of Street Fighter, but the differences that _are_ there are obviously enough to have people prefer MK over SF. I could say the same about almost every shooter, platformer, RPG etc out there. I guess my biggest hangup was that you expected the game to have real time combat, which just makes no sense to me.

And I feel like this game is popular because people like it, but more because people are getting really tired of not getting a better pokemon game that actually exploits the potential of the pokemon world with the potential of the nintendo switch that has proven to be able to support BIG worlds (BoTW Style). It seems to me that since the DS - 3DS jump, there has not been anything really new/fresh in Pokemon games... P.S. Sorry for my not perfect english

Oh... so yeah, I guess

@@danielv.8372 Yeah I can respect that.

Right? They are all too cute.

Yah, but many people are holding this game on a pedestal just because they hate Sw/Sh that much. They like to imagine everyone at GameFreak are just lounging around playing Smash Bros instead of working while the devs at TemTem are breaking their back to get their game out.

@@mathiasm8489 no no. The game feels like a 3ds which is a step back

@@RealSkyeBlue But it is normal because it has a smaller budget and itis the first game in hopefully a bigger serie. So it can improve the same way pokemon dit over the years.

@@mathiasm8489 That we'll never know. It's possible, but Pokemon is just years ahead in terms of experience and monster design so it'd be pretty unfair to compare at this point.

If you enjoy grinding for the sake of grinding, this is the game for you! Be sure you have padding next to your computer so you can smash your face into after your soul has been crushed by the boredom!

It's really seems like the non child equivalent of pokemon, where you just one shot everything and fly through the whole game.

The switch port is coming in May 2020

Games like these barely go to high up maybe $5-$10 extra bucks, some even stay the same or go F2P and offer 10% of their content but to early players who bought it the full experience.

If this is going to be an actual MMO, then it isn't worth buying now or the future. Buy to play MMOS are just bad. Not to mention, if it isn't a true MMO, then it isn't worth any amount of money.

@@boredfangerrude I'm sorry but I don't think you have played a real good MMO before? FF 14 and WoW are both amazing MMO's and you pay like $15 a month for them.

Haven't played the game myself yet, though it looks promising (I like that you can go all out with the character creation), and it's definitely a welcome alternative for greedy GameFreak who refuse to go with the times.

As someone who owns both Temtem early access, and the new Pokemon games. Temtem needs better server stability which i assume they are working on. They are basically charging people to test there game for them. Im sure given time the game will be better. Pokemon Sword and Shield have there faults but i have never once crashed playing it. The graphics are well meh. The main story is to long and drawn out for such a horrible story. The Wild Area is amazing though. Not a fan of Dynamax or Gmax would much rather have had them use Megas in the raid battles. As of this date i still gotta say Pokemon is the better game but given time Temtem might surpass it if the devs fix servers and make it so people are not crashing every 20 minutes.
