Welcome to the official Austin John Plays KZhead channel! On this channel you will find a variety of content like News, Tips & Tricks for Pokemon Violet & Scarlet, Legends Arceus, Tears of the Kingdom, The Legend of Zelda, and more!
For my Palworld content, that's on my second channel: www.youtube.com/@austinjohngaming
🤫
I love pokemon. I was born in 1995 so i grew up with the anime and have played all the games. As i got older i've been hopefull that the games would expand and do something more, but they havent changed much, legends being the exception. Pokemon has so much more untapped potential despite being a 20+ yr old franchise. I think a little bit of competition is good for them maybe then will they listen to their fans/customers more.
What competiotion? You are comparing a crafting survival game, like Arc survival Valheim and Minecraft to a tunt based cxreature collection RPG Like Shin Megami Tensei adn Dragon Quest Monsters. They are entirely different generes of game. It's like saying a call of Duty is gonna compeate against Age of Empires it's absolute nonsense
@@47slograCompetition doesn't have to be a 1:1 rip off. Yugioh and Digimon were considered Competition to the pokemon anime, trading card game and video games at one point despite being their own thing. If you think about it there are enough similarities that pokemon felt the need to give a response, but their are enough differences in the game as you mentioned that they probably won't be able to do anything about it but hopefully [improve] on their games.
@@47slogra🤡
If you were born in 1995 then you didn't grow up with pokemon
@@Brant-vh5mk mind your own business
My only hope is that some competition in the “catching monsters” space leads Pokemon Company to step their game up. I love Scarlet/Violet and am excited to see what they do next. Also, I need all of the dang Pokemon games on NSO already.
i did not like the new pokemon games, but i do think this is a nice fire under the pokemon company's ass to innovate and make good games again. pokemon hasn't been good in a LONG time.
Scarlet and violet were trash, I hope they use legends arceus as a foundation for the future instead. Game wasn't perfect but he'll. It was a good change for once.
Legends foundation with the ability to create your own outpost and use pokemon in ethical ways to farm so you can show off more pokemon than just having them sit in a box.
@@PulseOfMe they ran like trash but I enjoyed the actual intended parts of the game like the characters and new Pokémon. I do wish they could spend longer making games so they don't break and ruin the actual good parts they put effort into. Like it or not, Scarlet and Violet did have some good things but you and many other people just prove that no matter how good the story or any other aspect is, if it's full of bugs and runs like crap then the game is not good. The performance wasn't enough to make me hate the game personally but I understand that it's not a pleasant experience for some people.
@@PulseOfMe, people crying about a child’s game always makes me laugh. You are not the target audience.
Thanks for the updates on the 3DS internet support. I already traded all my Pokémon on mine to Pokémon home, but it’s good to know that they are still going to keep it up for the foreseeable future.
So, I've also played Palworld. My first impressions is that it feels different from the typical pokemonon-style gameplay (other than the obvious gun mechanic). It has this grind aspect where you have to farm various resources for different objectives, like Minecraft. For instance, you chop down wood to make a crafting table, or mine stones to craft the Pokeball equivalent, pal spheres. There's also a hunger meter for both your character and Pal monsters, so fighting off wild ones for food makes it more realistic thaPokemonon could ever be. As for the Pals themselves, there are definitely a few noteworthy Pal designs that are nearly identical to actual Pokemonon, some of them even hybrids of two. I can't say for certain whether they ripped it off from Pokemon's 3-D designs, but they do have other, more original-looking designs.
In other words, Palworld is a crafting survivor game and Pokemon is a turn based RPG
It’s more like cobblemon then pokemon, except without turn based battles and it has mounts and looter shooter elements
it’s more like ark
Did you just mansplain how a survival game is a survival game?
Does it have any sort of competitive side to ot. Most gameplay ive seen for fighting is just standing and firing guns at pals. Having seen all the designs theres some wholey unique awesome designs like the dream deamon that was sick but then theres others that are just an existing pokemon design but tweeked in some way like a green cinderace.
Thanks for going over this!
Informative and to the point as always! Thanks for the update
3DS and WiiU online services going down is definitely the end of an era. It's nice to know Pokémon Bank will still be up for some period of time, but if they don't have a solution to keep the games connected, this will be the first time in the franchise since Generation 2 into 3 that previous generations are being cut off from the current games. And it's even worse this time because Generations 6 and 7 *only* communicate via Bank. So what we will be seeing is Generations 1 and 2 can connect only to each other (again, and this time even the Virtual Console versions), 3-5 can transfer through up to 5, and 6 and 7 (not counting Let's Go) will each be completely separate. This will be the most disconnected the Pokémon games have ever been, but I suppose it's a sad reality that a long running franchise like Pokémon couldn't keep it up forever.
i skipping out on palworld personally. its interesting to watch everything unfold, but i just cant do yet another early access survival game, even if this one has a major mechanical difference. but i really do hope the pokemon company sees this as a threat. some strong competition would mean batter games all around.
Only way to make it more of a threat to them is to speak with your money. But hey, it's understandable you'd rather wait until it gets out of EA (if it does) which I respect. Let's hope we see it get out of it and be a full game release.
@@TheGravityShifterif I may be so bold, not everything is about money even that logic is unacknowledged.
@JetsetStealth As much as I wanna oppose… you’re absolutely right. I grew up with Pokémon understand fully. Palworld has gained recognition even though it’s just a baby. But the Pokémon franchise itself IS Gamefreak’s child after being married to the guy who created said series. Sadly, every Pokémon fan is caught up in this Pokémon vs. Palworld malarkey and because there were cowards caved to the gun-inspired idea and made people impose this mediocrity of an obsession on others. As Lacey would say, “That’s just not right,” Meaning, it would be selfish to deny the preface of it above all else. Pokémon taught me how to relate to others and have a brain. I stand by your thought.
@@misterwacky3186 While I agree, a lot of companies only speak money.
Amazing game you’re missing out big time
Spot on as usual AJP .. and good luck with the puppy!!
I'm not gonna lie, I was looking forward to your guides for Palworld. I've been loving it so much, and I'm still so early in the game that I feel like I need a lot of tips for things I still don't know about. But, I respect your choice on what content you want to promote on your channel. I'm just glad you made your other video about it, because that one alone showed me things I didn't know about.
@@Noone4207I0 not 100% sure but technically BeatEmUps was only ever in the parter program which technically isn’t an endorsement or anything. His videos about it definitely blew it out of proportion from what it really was. AJP seems to be in a good position with Nintendo as they did invite him to the Poltchageist event a while ago
For my Palworld content, that's on my new second channel: www.youtube.com/@austinjohngaming
@@AustinJohnPlays This just made me very excited! Thank you!!
I've always wanted to see a Pokemon game more like the Anime, pokemon arent just for battle, they are so diverse and are helpful in so many more aspects in the modern world, the anime shows this, some people just wanna surf with their pokemon, some poke centers are pikachu powered, some pokemon help people with their work, there are corrupt organizations that sell pokemon and abuse them, ETC, Pal world realizes how pokemon have so much more potential than just battling, it really feels like a pokemon WORLD, rather than just the same battling formula over and over again. Palworld is the first step to the ultimate Pokemon game.
6:22 "not even elder law." Was that a Better Call Saul reference?
Thank you for keeping us informed Austin! Your awesome bro😎😄
i believe is referring more about the mod someone created to have pokémon’s as Palmons than the game directly
I agree I was thinking they can't really get at the game there's a big enough difference in just game play itself but they are going to snipe and pokemon mods that come out on it
Yeah I think Nintendo/Gamefreak would've already made a move by now if they felt Palworld infringed intellectual property.
That's what im thinking as well. I feel like Palworld wouldnt have come this far (legally speaking) if they used Pokemon assets. I think it's safe to say the Pokemon company has been well aware of Palworlds existence for a while, and have already looked into it.
They referred the game as "another company's" game so it's obviously about palworld 🤷♂️
Yeah this just feels like tpc is saying if they using our assets we will come for them but the reality is they are not using those assets
Sorry that people seemed to come after you for even considering doing anything in Palworld. I was looking forward to some videos, but I understand the decision. Hope you are having a good day.
I decided to make a 2nd channel for non-nintendo games like Palworld here: www.youtube.com/@austinjohngaming
@@AustinJohnPlays Oh, I subscribed after seeing your post yesterday or the day before. I will definitely be coming to check your other content! Excited seeing the growth it’s already had!
The only reason it's described pokemon with guns is because almost everyone knows what pokemon is, otherwise it would be ark with cute monsters
Everyone knows Pokémon because it was a fantastic original idea. You hardly see that much these days 🤷🏽♂️
@Ni3onox i kinda feel like that's wrong, i don't think young kids care if it's original or not
Big sadge for the 3ds online going down Also with the GTS going down it doesn’t matter imo. The hacking is so bad I can’t even trade without it crashing the game.
Yeh gts is impossible
Would you be willing to make a full guide/list of what would be no longer available for 3ds/virtual console pokemon games so that people can prepare accordingly? I know friend safari may need internet but it could be helpful to know that before april
anything that requires your online status or connection to the internet (other than poke bank and poke transporter atm(1/26/24)), your welcome
Poki Pelago doesn't require internet. Plus what would you even need it for
Might not be relevant to this channel but Animal Crossing New Leaf's online functionalities will be gone, meaning no more trades and or online play.
Fromthevoid gaming made an hour long video with timestamps, I don't think Austin would be interested in looking up info for most of these tbh 😅
@@joserachi96 thank you! I think i saw some of his older videos and forgot about him
Shame to hear about guides not happening. I was looking forward to it, but I can understand.
Im a law student studying IP law right now and this is fascinating. I hopped online to try to find the trademark, patent, and copyright documents around the characters and was unable to find the specific character descriptions to compare them to palworld. I am still just a student, so don't read into that lmao, but the docs I were able to find were scarily extensive. Like specific game and product covers were uploaded to the USTPO. I'm going to talk to my prof on this next week but I am really on the edge of my seat.
I am so glad that Bank connection still connects after April. I am working backwards to get that livingdex and am only in Unova now.
I am doing the same thing because I have been using Bank to work on my Dex in home.
@@reginawade7370 Good luck!
I was in the middle of another video but as soon as a AJP movie drops we drop everything around here and watch that instead 😂
I did the exact same thing
The fact that response is misspelled in the thumbnail is killing me
Aye he fixed it!
I love your perspective on not jumping to conclusions. Awesome vid as usual
hey austin quick question u didnt finish the shrine hunters series for totk why
Iirc, he said awhile back that the videos had the lowest views in the history of his channel, so he scrapped the series
@@JRR31this
It's weird that some people's channels did much better for tears than others. So many of the streamers I watched just either took the viewership loss, or quit streaming it all together.
I’m more annoyed that my Twitter feed is almost nothing but people screaming and arguing about palworld or palworld vs Pokémon. I don’t care if people like it, hate it or whatever. It doesn’t look like a game that I’d enjoy so I don’t ever plan on playing it.
Right? I don't use Twitter that much but ik that people are going insane over all of this Palword and Pokémon stuff... I have nothing against Palworld tbh, it does look like a cool game. I'm just upset that it's existence is making Pokémon fans even angrier and we don't need that. Everyone is mad enough already over SV and this is making it worse. I see people say that they need competition because it'll motivate them to make the games better but I seriously doubt that. As much as I want that to be the case, I don't think they'll ever listen to us... maybe one day but I'm not sure. I ain't counting on it. It looks like they might even try to take down their competition so... there's that. Pokémon is still a huge franchise and they obviously don't have to worry about Palword ruining it or whatever. God all I want is for Game Freak to not suck and give us a good quality game for once so everyone can shut the hell up and stop making me feel sad. That may only happen in a million years...
Palworld made "Pokémon" respond? Thats wild to me
Is it really though? Someone made a pokemon mod and some of those pals are just regional variants of pokemon. Like cinderace and lucario and leafeon. Those are just the 3 I've seen and I haven't played the game.
Man! I was looking forward to Austin John plays Palworld and guides 😢 its a shame that he can't cover it
Thank you for making Pokémon guides very helpful and informative. Most of your vids are informative. Thank you for being helpful
Yooo that description of NJ was on point. My homies keep asking if it’d ever move back to Jersey but I live Florida now, there’s no turning back
Had no idea you were from Jersey! Yoooo! I knew I liked you months ago lol helped me on scarlet so much. What up from the 201!!!
Bummed but I understand why you won’t be doing guide videos! I’ll keep a close eye on notifications in case you stream some more
What's the reason if you understand can you tell me plz because I do not get why he is not doing it
The vocal minority armchair warriors on Twitter being obsessive jerks with things related to this game. It’s not worth the trouble.
Lol, I've been the last 2 days wondering if you will talk about the online notice bc I really trust your perception 😅 Gracias por tanto, perdón por tan poco 🙏🏽
I Simply haven’t bought this game cause it’s not on PlayStation, I like the progress aspect of it, that always makes people feel like they’re working towards something, as soon as Sony puts in the store I’m buying it.
I dont think it'll be on PS. I to have a PS and had to get myself a steam acct and play on my non gaming PC. If I were you and you have a PC just get the game
I think they’ve stated it won’t be on PlayStation can’t remember why but I do recall seeing something bout it
I’m happy that they have planned updates for the future; I am loving this game, even more so after beating the first boss recently. If you aren’t covering the game on this channel, will you be covering it on a second?
damn it. I love the 3ds so much and me and most of my friends are still playing on ours, carrying them everyday. this suck. So I won't even be able to battle or trade with friends online in various games? also, dropping a like for this cutting edge journalism plus the better caul saul reference.
I think a bit of healthy competition will make the Pokémon company up the standard a bit as I honestly can’t name a decent title they have releasedIn years
The main thing I took from this video is that Austin John and I are birthday buddies, and that's pretty neat!
This kinds of stuff is devastating, it really hurts my soul
Dang Austin. Figured you'd have to be careful but I was still hoping you'd cover this game with lots of videos.
I've always enjoyed your content my guy :)
If nintendo had a legal way to sue palworld, they'd have done it by now. They issued a cease and desist to the pokemon mod for it within 5 hours.
I feel like the Pokemon company ain’t gonna do anything about it (I could be wrong though) cause I feel like they could’ve done it long time ago but I don’t know but either way if you like Pokemon cool if you like palworld cool I just want both side to shut up already I can’t wait for those controversy to die off lol
Thankyou Austin❤
For the 3DS online ending, when I heard it would end soon it made me want to make a ribbon master before I'm unable to use Bank to transfer old mons up, but I don't even own an old DS or the GBA and DS Pokemon games to get those older ribbons. I might still do it with gen 6 as my start point, and as far as I can tell I'll be missing the gold battle and contest memory ribbons.
My shiny sceptile has around 15 or 20 ribbons, so good luck
I'm doing the same thing with my shiny Eevee I caught in Fire Red. It's up to you on where you stand with it, but you could use emulators for the older games and trade it up to the newer games
I wanna do the same but I can't get my 3ds until april 😢
I can’t even get Pokémon home cause of the eshop closing😭
I love Palworld, feels fresh to start playing something new for once in a while
6:30 when you say "this" twice, it seems like there was supposed to be something on screen that you were referencing...does anyone know what he meant by "this"?
this as far as the potentially faked evidence of 3D models usage. he can't speak on "this" because he is stating he does not have the knowledge to weigh in on "this" legality issue and all those terms.
Kinda sad you won't be making guides for Palworld. You're my favorite information Poketuber, so I was really hoping to have you within the Palworld space at your usual position as Herald of Information lol. I respect your decision though!
You really talked about the weather to drag the video out 😂
Yeah! I actually bought the game yesterday as well after trying it out on Game Pass last weekend and I love it, I have some frame issues while I’m playing it though! but I have an RTX 3050 under the hood so I don't think it's from my end, I think it's more likely because the game isn't finished yet, or it's a server issue or something like that I don't know, I also tried session skate sim to compare it while i had pumped up all the settings to max and was able to run it easy at 120 FPS smoothly without any frame drops, so I guess the only thing I have to do is wait for the updates and see if it gets better after.🤷🏻♂️
Woulda still watched the palworld stuff, but also understandable! Keep enjoying the fun!
2:00 No!
I really wanna try palworld but I have a switch and ps5 so it's just not in cards for me as of now
A shame you won’t be covering Palworld on this channel. I fully understand and will continue to support your channel tho 👍
Austin I have a question about transferring Pokémon forward to the switch. What should I do with my ASH-greninja? Do I move it forward. Or keep it in sun and moon?
Here in Far Rockaway, NY it’s bleak, gloomy & overcast everyday too bro 😂 I feel your pain & anguish on this end of the woods too 😮💨
Don't give your state away creeps on here dude
@@Noone4207I0 Let them try me 😒
Man I really have to get the motivation to hunt shiny poipole before it’s too late
I NEED to know if Streetpass will be functional or not
Fellow Jersey man. I feel the pain
I'm all for Palworld being competition for Pokemon in the creature capture genre, it'd force them to improve themselves, but there's so many designs that are copy pastes of Pokemon that I don't feel comfortable supporting it. It gives me the same feeling you'd get from throwing money into a mobile game you're going to delete in a week.
Are you able to do casual gameplay episodes or live streams? So we can see your experience with the game that be cool and fun to see.
Ayyyy New Jersey at least a little warmer this week
Palworld has been a great experience, being able to build a base with my kids has been great. You are right you cannot put it down once you start.
The way Pokémon says "another company's game" reminds me of how WWE would pretend that they were the only wrestling company that existed
"It's not a good game, but it's a fun game"
I really hope there are ways to upload our .sav files to a modded switch when they eventually port the games
l love that you’ve played Palworld! l hope l’m able to play it myself soon!
The only thing nintendo should be focusing on is getting better tech for their systems so they can put games out that actually run and can be played without tech limitations that give people motion sickness for trying to play.
Wish i knew this info. The past month ive put in 25 hours i to VC Yellow, 60 into VC crystal (Raikou had become my least favourite legendary as a result) plus grinding Dream Radar for the Therian forms, plus gen 4 bonuses. And basically wiping all my ds/3ds games to put every legendary/mythical into Home.
Just mod your ds bro
but please, do tweet if youre going to stream it, since i would like to see you playing it even if not on this channel
game better not be gone when i go to buy it this coming week.
Jersey girl here !! and it has has been very gloomy!😢 thank you to better help for sponsoring this vide❤❤
Bro everytime i come back to look at your vids your settup changes
“Pals” look like Pokemon created by cocomelon
What Nintendo should learn from Palworld, irrespective of whether there is any legal action, is that as well as Pokémon sells, it has the potential to sell many more copies if they made it look and perform better. They also need to freshen up the series with some much needed innovation instead of just making minor tweaks to the formula.
Wait... Then the ability to obtain more Magearna from the QR code on the Pokemon website is affected too right?
if the 3ds online service will end, does that mean we could get past mistery gift for the 3ds games, like we can for the games on the ds? It would awesome
my 3DS stopped working and is giving me a blue screen with an error code. looked it up and said is was a system memory thing. Figures this would happen as the internet functionality is being taken away...
Currently playing through the ds games one last time each to save my teams to home. Using Pokemon I’ve never used before. Even if bank stays open I want to do it just in case
Im still waiting for a final ruling on the issue.
Gen 6 and 7 GTS kept crashing when I tried to use it about a year ago. Pretty sure the cause is from putting broken pokemon on the GTS.
So with the online service shutting down, for pokemon players, can they get version exclusives and trade evolutions via other methods? (Excluding hacking)
they actually took down the online software functionality much earlier then we thought
Me waiting for ‘everything to do in the post game’😢
Damn my fire emblem fates castle farming days are coming to an end
If palworld follow their roadmap and fix their bugs and update the game regularly i think they will do really well with this game
"We will continue to cherish and nurture each and every Pokémon and it's world," They say as they make tgeir fans pay extra to have a fraction of the pokemon available.
Yo just given a shout out. I finally, about three months ago got my blue roses in playing Animal Crossing New Horizon thanks to you.
I'm sad that the 3Ds and Wii U service going down but luckily u can count on Fans reviving it just as they did for Nintendo DS and Wii Wifi!
Austin John, please make a guide for good base locations I'm struggling to find the good places Edit: wait you're not going to make guide videos?? Omg 😭 why though, I don't understand I'm so sad
Man they're going after Palworld... What's next, Monster Sanctuary?
It took way too long for me to find the Pringle Icon.
It’s so relieving to see a game as good as Palworld finally getting the recognition it deserves
I was hoping you are gonna upload palworld videos guides😢 .
1:58 really have to make time and see if there's any Pokemon in 3ds games I wanna transfer.
The video that was taken down was a video of a mod for palworld. The palworld devs already obliterated any mods on there mod website that has to do with pokemon in any way. They i think also stated they have cleared any copying and infringement or whatever of the pals so it would be clear of the ban hammer from nintendo.
Cant even play palworld cause 2 times some how files went missing after finishing downloading
So what I've boiled it down to, is that it's basically ARK Survival base, Legends Arceus style catching and then Breath of the Wild movement accessibility. Then like a pipeline efficiency game of skills and pals to further along everything, which makes it more fun than ARK and it makes me feel like my time is respected.
"Its cold here in virginia." Me watching this while the temp where i live is -30°f, im sure it is
