>>40816432While it's nice that there are SOME good new designs in SwSh, it's just overall one big shit heap and I feel like a lot of people who were on the fence are starting to pick a side:
>only about 400 mons, less than Gen 4>lots of really garbage designs for new mons>animations and graphics still pretty bad or inconsistent>Mega Mushroom gimmick to replace two other gimmicks>LOOOOOOOW difficultyAnd that's just the tip of the iceberg. I'm waiting for the inevitable balancing issues, potential on-line problems, and gamebreaking glitches.
Is this the end of Pokemon? No.
Will this game bomb? Hell no.
But I think it's fair to say that Pokemon's image in the public eye has been damaged and long term problems are going to haunt this franchise because of the the short term victories they sought after.
