>>50935658>The newer releases don't align with their mentality that you play Pokemon for 400 hours and grind endgame content to no end, with no consideration for story, world building or battle mechanics.>you play Pokemon for 400 hours and grind endgame content to no end>with no consideration for story>world building or battle mechanicsWhat are you talking about? Sword and Shield are the perfect games for the people you describe; there's no narrative, no build up for its climax or background for its characters, the gimmick goes under-utilized in the campaign and everything there's to do after beating the 16-hour campaign is nothing but grinding for hours in the Wild Area for shinies
