The "SW/SH has bad graphics" shit needs to stop. Its blatantly false and based entirely on misinformation. The whole idea started because people compared early footage to Dragon Quest and Pokemon looked much worse in comparison. Except all of those dragon quest comparisons were from the PS4 pro version, a vastly stronger console (probably 10x) than the switch. On top of that, they have clearly polished the visuals since then. For a 1080p Nintendo Switch game it looks totally solid. It's not a bad looking game st all.

The graphics are average. They definitely could be better but I wouldn't call it "bad."

No, they compare to Ocarina of Time.

I don't understand the kiddos that are whining about the games not looking hyper realistic. A game doesn't have bad graphics because it is choosing a cartoony aesthetic. It is a stylistic choice that is in line with a twenty year old brand about cartoon monsters.

The Splatoon town center is literally just a menu, you can't interact with anything. It also runs like sludge in handheld.

The problem is that it looks like a handheld game, and is average looking at that, even in that regard. What's even worse is they're charging even more for it.

It would at least be some what justifiable at $40.

The game does interior design well but anything larger looks bland and lifeless. Every route we've seen so far is a basic hallway and the wild area is just a big area filled with nothing.

The cities (where your camera angle is trestricted, mind you) and buildings look good. The wild area does not, as Arlo put it, "Sometimes just the wrong combination of elements come together and it looks like a tech demo or a fangame." We've seen the bad textures on the trees and rocks.

There's something about the lighting that just doesn't look that good. In some places it's just the almost complete lack of shadows, but in others, I'm not entirely sure what it is. May be just the overall brightness. LGPE had this problem as well.
Then of course the textures for anything with some detail unlike in that image are pretty fucking bad.

The wild is only one part of the game. The game overall is probably around 70-80 hours long when you include catching/leveling up/evolving all the Pokemon. Catching whatever exclusives are in the wild will probably only take a few hours. So you are bitching that 2 hours out of 70 is ugly.

It's not bad or ugly, it's average. But you are missing the point. People never cared about graphics in Pokémon (games which btw have always looked average next to other games in the same console). But since GF said "we cut a beloved feature to work on graphics" then people want to see graphics that look worked on, not "average". If they had said anything else then attention would have gone to that thing. The entire game looks average, so everyone is wondering where exactly their resources went to.

You're saying that only about 5% of the game will be spent on the wild area and rotes when it makes up 90% of the gameplay?

GF wants the wild area to be THE thing of the game, probably because they still think this is what made Go sell.

The wild has literally zero story content. You can walk right through it and pretend it never existed. You are literally whining about extra content on top of the normal Pokemon game.

The Pokemon community is not worth appealing to. People always whine that the games don't have optional extra content aside from the base Pokemon game. Gamefreak adds a ton of extra optional content in the form of the wild on top of the already existing base game and instead of appreciating it everyone just whines that the graphics aren't polished. As if gamefreak should have spent half the development time on optional bonus content.

It's not whining - I didn't say it was a good or bad idea. I was just pointing out your time assumption. Yes, you can technically ignore it, but GF is putting all the money on it. You, personally, may want to ignore it and that's ok. Tons of people probably will, it looks empty so far. But it wasn't designed for only an hour or too, it was designed around tons of shit working there (the new pseudo pss, raids, curry and camping). So if that is GF's intention then it will be judged as such.

Most people just catch what they need for the dex and leave. Only shiny hunters and competitive players may spend more time there, which aren't as many as you think they are as proven by catching missions in gen VII. GF is still thinking we want Go.

The wild area has most of SWSH's core mechanics. Gym battles take 5 minutes at most. It takes up over half the map. It would take you more time to run through it on foot with no encounters than it would to beat any gym leader.

What mechanics? Camping and curry? Like with Aime, people will play with their team a couple of times before getting bored. Nobody cares about curry. Raids? What I already said: it's a new catching mimic, like hoardes and SOS before it, will be used to complete the dex and that's it.

The one thing the wild area will be used for a lot is the new PSS but that's not "tons of content", it's basic Pokémon. GF is selling the Wild Area like this big thing but so far it looks pretty empty of content, just a bigger route.

It will probably last about 15 hours all said and done which is much more optional content than most Pokemon games get.

Catching pokemon. Leveling. Exploration (it takes up half the map.) Have you not played a Pokemon game before?

So you're agreeing with me?
