>>54185610I'm not a shill, I simply decided I no longer care enough. I was one of the people who didn't buy LGPE, SwSh and BDSP because I had no intention of giving GameFreak the message that what they were doing was okay.
But truth is, you cannot win this fight because Pokemon is, at this point, too much of a mainstream brand and for every person rightfully (or not so rightfully, I agree on some stances and don't on others) being pissed online over the new games, there's at least 10 casuals who aren't involved in the online community and its drama, they don't feel like they belong there and simply buy whenever and whatever they feel like buying, barely keeping up with trailers let alone with community drama.
Which is, in all honesty, definitely a healthier approach to a brand than being terminally online having arguments over some kids' game.
I decided I want none of that anymore and now I simply decide whether I want to buy a new game or not depending on how I personally feel about it.
Me denying myself a kids' game I feel like trying out isn't saving the brand and never will, so fuck it.
