Feels real weird beating 7000-rated players in Tetris as a 4000-rated Puyo player.

Though sometimes I can bop a 7000-rated Puyo player too, maybe nobody just expects a 5-chain rush?

After the patch, I can beat 13k Tetris players sometimes, and I can also beat 8k Puyo players, sometimes.

You can definitely snipe dudes with unconventional timing. I do it too cause I suck at Puyo but really it's no substitute for learning actual chains st some point. Feels especially risky after the patch.

e: no evidence for this but it feels like ratings are less meaningful in general since the cap was lifted

I hope a real deal puyo game gets localized whenever they make another one. I love Tetris to death but Puyo is so great and PPT is lacking in the Puyo mode (and character, where is my ocean prince) department. I've been playing puyo 20th anniversary even though its completely in Japanese and I need something like this on the Switch, immediately

Puyo games are a hard sell overseas because people don't want to pay retail prices for puzzle games anymore and they also have big localisation costs that other puzzle games don't have

When I read that I wondered why people don't want to pay full price any longer and then I realized that mobile f2p garbage has tainted the good name of puzzle games

just for online, the rpg mode looks awful and the other modes are the same as in previous anniversary games

Didn't the other anniversary games have issues with the traditional modes or something? Did they not fix any of that for Chronicle?

they fixed the soft drop bug in the classic pp2 mode, and nobody cares if the gimmick modes are busted

There's always Puyo Quest, the horrible mobile F2P game that somehow got localized (in Canada only?) as "Cranky Food Friends" :suicide:

(and apparently did so poorly it died soon after, can't imagine why)

yeah there was a mentality in Sega US/EU for a long time that made them paranoid about acknowledging Puyo in any way because Puyo Fever didn't sell in loving 2003 or whatever

the easiest, cheapest thing for them to do would be to put out emulated PP2 with online play like everyone has demanded for years

It might be Puyo Puyo Tetris time once more.

Sega posted announcements to two of their (unrelated) games on Steam:

http://steamcommunity.com/games/460790/announcements/detail/1680275500369804955
Green Puyo on Bayonetta

http://steamcommunity.com/games/460810/announcements/detail/1647624403069348768
Z piece on Vanquish


Along with the news about PPT apparently hitting >= 1,000,000 in sales... I suppose I should get ready to buy this game for the 5th time :v:
