I specifically remember thinking to myself that if gen 8 doesn't really improve upon gen 7 in any major way, then pokemon might as well be a dead franchise. They still have below-average graphics, they still seem to be adding and removing features at random, and there's just a huge disconnect between the devs and the fanbase for whatever reason.
With that being said, I like the look of the new pokemon and characters of Galar, Dynamaxing and raid battles seem fun, and there's still a lot about the games that we don't know about, namely gyms, Team Yell's purpose, and other Galar pokemon.
