So I decided to read the "updated" IGN review for EoS for some reason. I remember the old score gave it like 7/10 or something. This new review score gives the game a 4.9/10. Don't worry, the reviewer of this game is very qualified because he also just recently gave Madden 25 an 8.5/10
Here's some funny bits from the review
>pic
Never gets elaborated on in the review.
>There's Shaymin on the cover of the game, so, you guessed it, Shaymin is also in here, at the end, but the plot doesn't change.
Never elaborates on what Shaymin actually does in the game. Shaymin village is a whole new questline in the game that introduces a whole new location
>You have psychic powers which make you essentially the Pokemon equivalent of Bruce Willis from Unbreakable
I don't even know what to say in response to this
>There are two new starter characters: Riolu and Phanpy
Dude didn't realize playing as a female gave you eevee and vulpix, or that you could also unlock Shinx. You know, the second most popular starter pick next to Riolu.
>If these episodes had been incorporated into the main game, instead of only accessible through the main menu, then the game could have added some new story elements to lead into them and it would actually feel like a different game.
It's literally not a different game, it's an updated version of the same game. That's not what they were trying to do.
>Wonder Mail is the most used Wi-Fi feature in the game, aside from maybe rescuing, though I used Wonder Mail way more.
So the reviewer basically spawned in items for his whole playthrough
So let's look at all the changes this guy missed
Spinda's Cafe
Three of the new starter pokemon
The secret bazaar (Granted, it's pure rng of whether or not you see this.
Destiny Tower
Only losing half your money as opposed to all of it when you die
Raiku, Entei, Suicune, Mewtwo, and Jirachi all being made accessible through Spinda's cafe
A shitload more that I'll ignore because I'm out of characters
