So non-buyfags, would you buy Sword and Shield if they were $40?

No, there's much better games for that price range in current year and the shitshow helped me overcome my obsession with playing every pokemon game

Hot

I still got a voucher I'm using for Sword but at $40 I would buy it and save the voucher for something else.

I'd probably get it used for an even lower price. Maybe? Depends if the game has redeeming qualities.

No, because I do not own a Switch. The game has to be good enough to make me want to make a full 360 dollars jump.

No. I don't own a switch and while there are other titles I know I would like on switch, pokemon probably would've been the one to get me to actually get the console.
$60 still seems a bit high for pokemon, but I probably would've tolerated that price if it had all the mons. $40 with all the mons and what we've seen so far and I'd be an extremely content camper.

No. Things that would change my mind:
>exploration and environmental world storytelling
things like the ruins of alph in crystal, finding the regis in rse, and navigating mt coronet in dppt
>following/riding pokemon
It's no longer a technical accomplishment to load an additional model and set it's position relative to another as they move around, it's time it becomes standard like trainer customization
>an option to change that UI
holy fuck it burns my eyes, who let that programmer art into the final product?
>bring back the battle formats they tossed away
At least in battle facilities, but ideally more variety in battle formats throughout the main game
>basic difficulty options
It's been done in bw2, now make those available at the start and let us toggle things like exp share mode(all, 1 mon, off) and things like move effectiveness hints, skip/review all tutorials at will
>other qol features/options
Toggle run/walk, skip cutscenes, ability to rename traded pokemon, change language from settings, access pc from inventory(anywhere, any time, maybe to keep challenge the box doesn't heal on hard mode), ect
>making up for the dex cut
I know they're not changing it, but if there's at least 100 new pokemon species then it's enough to be worth collecting, also need more info about home - if it's good and free then I'd be willing to give it a shot.

Nah. Even if it weren't the same game from 20 years ago being sold to me, there's way better games you could get the price. I don't play showdown but you'd be better off playing that if you really cared.

>making up for the dexcut
Tbh i agree with your point, but I'd add an extra bit for both UI and making up:
Having actual impactful animations that are short, snappy and powerful
Almost fucking every old pokemon game used to show off how swooshit is bad is mostly camera cuts and movement, it's not that fucking difficult to do it and adds a serious quick punch to all movement, and would EASILY help make High quality animation because you don't even need to show off them moving and doing too much and yet they refuse to.
Also removing text boxs
This improves speed and adds fucking flair
Imagine if that scorbunny vs bunnelby had a cut to scorbunny roundhouse kicking it and then above bunnelby's health has how many hits landed, if it critted and if it's super effective, returning back and then showing off it fainting, how much exp you get, etc...
Alas, we're not gonna get ANY OF THIS and I'm fucking angry about it

False

Pokemon historically drove Nintendo handheld sales

People bought Gameboys and DSes solely for Pokemon

Since the Switch is expensive, can't be fully hacked unless you're a Year 1 buyer and LGPE and Sword/Shield being garbage the people who splurged their shekels will be skipping this generation entirely

1. Holy shit, stop asking every damn day.
2. I'd consider it, but likely still say no; this gen's leak season has actually, unironically drained me of the capability of getting excited for anything involving the Pokemon franchise. I think the only things left that could draw me back are a PC port of Pokken DX and/or a new Mystery Dungeon game.
