Pokémon Scarlet & Violet Nintendo Switch Review - Are They Worth It?

I think that Pokemon should be a once in a generation game, like Mario or zelda. It would still sell zillions of copies. They can easily make spin-off games throughout the years to get more merch, cards, TV episodes, etc. Then again, this will probably sell zillions, and even more than sword and shield. Why bother fixing your square wheel when it sells, and it sells well.

I wonder how many steps multi billion dollar franchise can step in the right direction before it actually gets it right

The story of, “its a step on a right direction but not a good contemporary game” is getting so tiring and frustrating, but the worst of it is that this will be the eternal cycle this games will be in since Pokemon as a whole will always sale well despite delivering average experiences in their main line console games… It’s sad but there’s not much that can be done… unless few people buy this games which will probably never happen…

At this point, Pokemon really need 1 - 2 rival franchise that can show to us this type of game can have stellar performace and beautiful stylistic world. Temtem, MH Stories or even Digimon need to step up and capitalize this when many people questioning game freak capability to create a game with stable and solid performance.

I’m very, very concerned about what’s going to happen when online co-op launches, I can’t imagine the performance being any better in that mode and I don’t think people are going to tolerate an even choppier framerate

I’m looking forward to Digital Foundry’s coverage on this - performance this bad deserves to be criticised
