Spoiler free review of Sun/Moon without any bullshit.
I'm tired of these cancerous threads where everything is black or white regarding the quality of the game so here is an actual, straight to the point, review of the game for people who don't know if they'll buy it or are looking for a pokemon game to play. I'll judge the game from a casual and a competitive point of view.
TL;DR: Is the game fun? No (most of the time). Are the new mons fun? Yes. Overall: Undoubtedly a bad game in itself but a positive impact on everything else by bringing new mons.
Good points:
- New pokemon are really cool, interesting designs, fun abilities, a few buff and nerfs here and there to shake the meta. You encounter new mons regularly troughout the game.
- Some ingame battles are really fun and challenging.
- The new system replacing HMs is fun.
- Some musics are really good.
- Ultimately it is easier to get perfect IV/EV mons with the new system, however you'll still have to roll natures and use breeding for egg moves.
- It's fun to discover the various effects of Z-Moves by yourself.
- You get a bunch of weird items and mons easily.
