It is my belief that every Pokémon is entitled to a moveset that complements its stats and vice-versa.
Poor balance: Core Pokémon games may seem well-balanced on the surface, but once you start digging into stats and movesets, it is clear that some Pokémon are way better than others. Apex will not be brutally difficult, but it will require players to make conscientious choices about their team and play style. Personally, I think Pokémon could benefit from a steeper difficulty curve. Low Difficulty: Most Pokémon games are geared towards younger audiences, meaning they are typically very easy to finish. The developer also sees Apex as a way of 'solving' the problems they have with the core franchise, such as: There are lots of small details hidden throughout the game, as well as secret areas and items that reward meticulous players. Playing through the game haphazardly will get you into trouble.Īlso, this game is for people who prefer to take their time in games to explore their environment and uncover hidden details. Furthermore, the game is intended to be somewhat difficult, meaning that you will need to think about your strategies and make conscientious choices about your team in order to progress. The game contains some adult dialogue (some swearing) and themes (death, abandonment), and some minor horror elements. Pokémon Apex is developed with an adult Pokémon fan in mind.
