Whether or not there's fun to be found in Let's Go, as a fan that's been following the series since the start, I have no interest in playing a game that goes out of its way to remove so many mechanics and features I like for the sake of streamlining specifically for an audience that hasn't been playing these games for 20 years.
If the fun of Let's Go comes from adventuring with your Pokémon, getting stronger, and overcoming 'challenges', why would I choose to play it over any of the previous titles, which have more things to offer that I enjoy? Because it looks nice? Being a Pokémon fan, I obviously don't give a shit about graphics, so all in all I'd have more fun playing FRLG than Let's Go, and that's terrible.
Have fun with Let's Go all you want, but understand that it could and should be much better than it is (for everyone, not just casual players), which I think is the heart of most complaints about it. We don't want it tainting future games, so we bitch. It's all we can do.
