I don't even agree that SwSh are the "best looking Pokemon games to date". Even DS/3ds Pokemon games were more consistent with their visuals and executed their artstyles way better than SwSh did. I'd rather be looking at pleasant, consistent and polished pixel art than an incredibly inconsistent 3d game with N64 textures in the same screen as high-quality Switch models. It's super distracting and breaks the immersion.

Hgss' and SM's bright and colorful color palettes definetly make them stand out and make the region feel warm and welcoming. Even their UIs were great (hgss was clean and slick while sm had that watery effect (with a matching sound effect too). Imo, the best looking mainline games.

Agree. I don't think it's fair to compare a 3DS game with a Switch game like, of COURSE it's technically gonna look better, but with Sun and Moon I was kinda impressed with its visuals for a 3DS game whereas SwSh looks laughably bad and dated compared to everything else on the system.

The thing is that every pokemon game is a product of its time, but sword and shield it's the only one that looks outdated since the announcement. I aways complain with my friends that these games have a lot of problems that in any other Nintendo games should be inadmissible and they always said things like "comparing with the old titles is a good game", "what matters is fun", "if you don't like, you're not a pokemon fan", "game freak have low employees, they do what they could". Now just imagine if Rock Star announce GTA 6, with ps3 graphics, playability like the ps2 era but with little adjustments, a service when you have to pay to pass weapons and cars from past games, a shitty story, with a meaningless dlc... No one will like it. It's about time to pokemon players realize that if they still paying for any garbage game freak throw us, they'll never do something we can say "that's the evolution of pokemon", because they still filling theirs pocket with your money with doing little effort...

I think everyone is a bit quick to blame GameFreak, but can agree that they have been doing a sub-par job with the pokemon franchise for awhile now. There are likely passionate developers in gamefreak who try their hardest, put a lot of work into the games. However, SW/SH was clearly rushed and so likely is the main cause for the lack of polish and content in the game (notable example obviously being the lack of proper national dex/massively decreased pokemon count). They were likely under pressure, possibly even from Nintendo, to fulfill the "new pokemon game of this year" quota.What I'm getting at is that I don't think that this can be entirely blamed on gamefreak. That being said, what isn't excusable by being "rushed" is the fact that for generation upon generation, the same issues keep creeping in without any attention and a lack of response to the wants of fans. The lack of difficulty in the newer games, the very formulaic and not very unique structure of the games, etc. I truly wish gamefreak would listen to fan's requests rather than just trying to make pokemon "more accessible" - in doing so, all they've done is make it less fun for everyone. It would also be nice if they took a step back and stopped pumping out game after game, and took the time to develop it properly - it's not like they dont have the money to do it given how this is one of the most successful franchises in the world. The fact that they're supposedly a "small team" makes no sense since they easily have the resources available to expand. Sadly though, I dont see them fixing any of these issues any time soon, so your analogy of ps3 graphics and ps2 playability is probably going to keep happening :/ Side note: many ps2 games had amazing gameplay that pokemon could only dream of matching, despite being on much more powerful hardware now

I'll go ahead and admit that I haven't played Sword and Shield myself - to me, a $60 game that seemed like it had less content than its $40 predecessor (I didn't count Let's Go) just didn't seem worth it. But I think I can say with confidence that 9th Gen, whenever that is, is going to do one of two things based on how people have reacted to 8th Gen. Either a) Masuda and the old guard, who I believe have been stepping back in general lately, are going to finally turn the series over to people who actually give a shit about it and 9th Gen is going to be a return to form, bringing the series back to the standard most of us were content with before if not going above and beyond to deliver a *real* contender for best-in-the-series, or b) this will be the start of the series' dark age, where every game is undeniably inferior to the one before it as people like Casey use their platform to normalize shortcomings in the games to the point that nobody cares anymore. My money's on this one, but I hope to hell that I'm wrong - I miss Pokemon, just not enough to invest in a lesser game. Talk shit about 7th Gen all you want, but at least it had a full Pokedex.

Intenionally cutting corners and profiting off the ignorance of younger players who they can exploit as such, where older players would (and have) call them out.

Ah, so, let's see... *"The animations weren't good, characters weren't very expressive, cutscenes were janky, the whole dex wasn't there" = her negatives *"Y-com is good" false claim to be honest, we all know that. *"You can't actually interact with other players in the overworld, routes are narrow roads & there's not really a lot to explore." = More negatives. *"There's a couple rocks in the wild area and a place with sand" = not a very good attempt at 'making something seem better than it really is' so a lie. *"40 hours of gameplay" Where???? I spent 12+ hours ingame time shiny hunting an Electrike before the second Gym and still finished the mainline game at around 16-18 hours or such. I dunno how they counted it, probably with irl time and adding in how long they slept and all that. So I'm counting that as a lie too *"Bad music" Her only true criticism she admits Now, let's see what positives could Possibly negate all of that and turn it into a 9.5 *Tutorial skip - after 20+ years of games, wow *Better graphics - Arguable because of Let's Go *Bike & Flying - The seamless transition from traveling on land and water is nice and the ability to fly so soon is nice, I'll give you that *Access to box where ever - Also nice *Wild area - Nice idea, fell flat *Controllable camera - On 1 area, something they failed to mention *"There's a post game!" - Well, yeah, duh. It's sad when something like this is something to be joyous about *The newest (probably like 10-15) moves are well animated - And all the rest are lackluster and bad *8 gyms, etc - So... a standard Pokemon game? None of that is anything much to really mention Not to mention the lack of voice acting, non-skippable cutscenes, and who knows what I missed So, you tell me how this is worth 9.5

At least the IGN lady enjoyed the game for what it has while she played, instead you skipped past everything good the game had to offer only to dump on the game for not being perfect. Nothing perfect, not even you, so listen to Marnie and shut your gob. Or maybe you didn't hear her since you were mashing through text boxes without a care for the people who made the game. Maybe you don't put time into playing games and enjoying what they have, but some other people do.

@@graysontaylor2177 Well, unfortunately for you, assuming how people play games isn't the best thing to do. We all play them differently and enjoy different bits, that much is obvious For me, I wanted more from these games. More lore, more time to be spent with the game itself. I'd love if the routes actually had something to themselves, or at least the towns and cities, but after playing some older Pokemon games, the later have really suffered in Sw/Sh, to an extent I didn't even think at first. I've been playing Platinum for the first time ever and I'm doing it as a Nuzlocke which I'll also somewhat place a story around so I've paid a ton of attention to the story. That game is Amazing. I was 20 hours in and I had just about gotten 2 badges. Now I'm 30-ish hours in with 5 badges and I've not even done everything the game has to offer. It's truly a wonderful game and each and every time I arrive at a gym city I'm in Awe at how big the cities actually are. Like, they're pretty sizeable, you really get to explore them a bunch~ Now Sw/Sh, I'd really have liked for there to have been more lore, I read all the text I could come across very carefully and eagerly, I don't mash stuff because I want to experience all the game has to offer. And yet the most entertaining bits of the plot were the expressions my character had upon being handed the detector devices in the Ground gym, and the same angry-confused look at the sea food restaurant in the Water gym place. Those two made me think up some lore for the character I played as. But when Those are the highlights...... mm... Of course everything with Opal & Bede was great too, but when I had time to shiny hunt an Elektrike before beating the game and I Still finished it in some 12 or 16 hours... Yeah, the difference is pretty staggering. I want to like the games. I've come to appreciate the quick loading times upon my few returns to the game and I Will play Sword through again as a Nuzlocke one day. But they're far from my top pic for best Pokemon games

@A. Nonnymouse Ah yes, that shitty thing done by less than 1% of the people against Sword & Shield, but because it was super shitty, it now contributes to how a lot of morons view those who are against the games. Yes, it is true that the Dex cut was done because they'd have to delay the game otherwise, that's very obvious just by looking at how incomplete the games are to begin with. However it's very clear that re-adding Pokemon is a marketing move and not that retarded thing you said. A lot of Pokemon were cut, including a ton of fan favorites. So doing the rather mundane task of porting in the assets they already had into the engine they've been using for years is easily worth it. Especially when they have the scam that is Pokemon Home's transfer system, which will abuse the fact that so many people will want to bring in their older Pokemon, now that they're actually allowed in the Galar region. Hell, the only major source of work that needs to be done is adjusting move pools to accommodate any TM changes, as the TM system is very counter-intuitive, and has been so for a while.

bob bobby Not exactly. In the previous games, every step you took in grass or a cave/dungeon had a chance for a Pokémon to jump you. In Sword and Shield though, you can see them. Even the exclamation points can be seen. That was what I was trying to get at.

"Best Pokemon game ever" SuMo had better shadows. I mean, the shadows for these models are just X's. Oh ok. Those shadows are only in the stadium but there's still no voice acting, faulty animations (the Legendary turning animation) and has so much pop in that if you're moving too quickly you might as well just have random encounters.

Those X shadows are cast by the many lights in the stadium.
@nyoron394 жыл бұрын
Shadows in stadiums are big X's due to the multiple sources of light. They were not made dynamic, but they have a reason for such a shape.

"These side characters all are more fleshed out then usual" Big disagree the only side character that's interesting in SwSh is Leon and that's because he does a lot more interesting things throughout the game then the player does.

It annoys me that Bede ditched half of his team to become a Valerie clone + Gardevoir. I guess he does have Galarian Rapidash and Hatterene by the end of the game, but did he really need to have Mawile and Sylveon too? There are so many more Fairy Types he could have had instead, like Whimsicott and Clefable. He really comes across as someone who ditches half of his team just to suck up to whoever pays attention to him. You can't tell me it was a coincidence that he ended up with 2/3 of Valerie's team and Diantha's sig mon.

@@YujiUedaFan I thought him becoming a gym leader in Opal's stead was an unexpected but welcome change/twist, however you definetly feel like there is more development missing between the encounter at Hammerlocke and at the league. Edit: forgot to mention that Leon isn't _that_ interesting either, speaking personality wise. "I'm the unbeatable champion and this is my younger brother and best friend Charizard! I always have a champion time and also, I'm pants with directions". No deeper look into his past relationships with Sonia nor Raihan. Or any meaningful exchanges with Hop for that matter. Imo, the most interesting character to me was Allister mostly because of his design and the the little info we got from him.

@@insertnamehere6434 Yes, because Rose rejected Bede and Opal became obsessed with him, so he sucked up to her and ditched two of the Pokémon you first see him with, just to get on her good side. His new team is very suspicious and screams of "I'll copy the only other active Fairy Gym Leader + Diantha's sig and two Galar exclusives, to not make it completely cloned". Galar may be limiting Pokémon, but it's not limited on Fairy Types. He literally threw away his old identity as a Psychic trainer to become an idealized Fairy Gym Leader Opal wants him to be.
