>>38803939- Graphics look pretty mediocre, although it's still technically an improvement over every other game in the series
- Wild area looks like a step in the right direction after the years of dumbing down every Pokemon region after Sinnoh. It's a shame that it will only make up a small portion of the game but hopefully they're just testing the waters and they'll expand that level of exploration and freedom to the rest of the world in future games
- Character designs are more or less in line with every character since gen 6. Although having a beard that's a different colour to your hair is fucking retarded
- Box legendaries are mostly alright, although a dog carrying a sword in its mouth is fucking ridiculous. Surely they could have done a better job with integrating the sword into it's design. Also the boxarts are probably the worst in the series, although I'll be getting the game digital so I don't care too much.
- I'm not completely sold on dynamaxing, it seems like another gimmick like Z-Moves where I'll probably barely use it throughout the main game.
- Raid battles as a local/online multiplayer feature might be cool, although I doubt I'll be using them much and I'd be interested to see how active they still are once the game has been out for a while
- Edge birb is a cool design, other new designs they revealed are decent
Overall it was a decent direct. I really disliked Sun and Moon to the point where I didn't bother with USUM, but I probably will pick this game up.
