>>42604116Well I'm going to say a few things you won't like, because what I want and value is more than likely much different than you.
>Compare it to Breath of the Wild, Super Smash Bros, or Super Mario Odyssey.Have them all, all of them are good games, but my S&S time is already double all 3 of those games combined time played. Now I will say this . Time played is not the be all end all of quality. A lot of my time in Sword and Shield is grinding related after all and I do have plenty of issues with the game, but the Pokemon being cut isn't one of them. I've always said they'd come back, dextrannies were just impatient and overly entitled (and yes I hate using that word after how often leftist fucks have spammed it but its the most apt word there is for this). If all the Pokemon were in from the start, the DLC would have had absolutely 0 value. What good is new areas to explore if everything you can catch there is already available in the base game?
>Look at the graphics, the animations, and tell me you aren't a little upset at characters being cut due to time constraints?I don't care about graphics and animations. At all. I play ascii roguelikes and other low quality (graphics wise) shit. That sort of stuff doesn't bother me at all. As for animations, animations are extremely time consuming to make and I wouldn't want the games to be delayed for anything, especially not animations which I turn off at the start of the game anyway.
