Dev Blog - April 1st - Minion battles

[Laughlyn]

Ya i know this is meant as a april fools joke, however... lol

This needs to happen!

I suggested something simmilar long ago, and i think its a wonderful idea.
Especially for those kinda slow going days, minion battles < I need this! >

Original source

i dont care if a petition would be in order to actually make
one of the april first jokes into a reality, i really want this idea !

Joke on SE because every times they do an April Fools Jokes, everyone want it to happens and it the greatest ideas they came up with. Take example for the Relationship between the NPC, people still want that to happens after all this Months. Mass Effect anyone?

Looking forward to 6 months down the line when someone is going through old dev blog posts and then comes onto the forums to make a thread 100% seriously wondering about whatever happened to this content.

Ya i agree with that, however... if they were asking if we would like this content...

my answer would be: THAL'S BALLS YES!

anyone agrees?

(Who knows, maybe enough voices of opinions would actually make it happend?)

I can't appreciate it. On one hand, simply because I've no interest in pokémon battles. On the other, elaborate jokes like this teasing us with content that would potentially be awesome, and then have nothing of it actually implemented... not a good feeling. Last year's favour system also sounded awesome... and of course it didn't happen. At all. In any way, shape or form.

Considering how many of the features hold so much hope when announced, and then turn out to be letdowns, on whatever level, I'm not at all sure we need April Fool's being taken this seriously. By the dev team, I mean.

Ok, now we need to push for the wind-up Viangaa. Please make that ugly abomination a real thing, I want it so badly. Put an April Fools event into the game, I don't care, just give me it.

Unfortunately, if its an April Fools joke its pretty much guaranteed to never become a real thing.

Watch this actually be a thing in 5 years...

I give 'em 2 years until the Viangaa minion actually ends up being either in the mog station store or as a seasonal/special event item.

It don't sound like Pokemon battles. I mean Pokemon is not a RTS.
