Are you excited for it to get a 98 on metacritic with a bunch of journos just vaguely rambling about nostalgia and how fun Pokemon is without saying a single thing about the game itself?

I don't read journos' reviews on any game whatsoever.

It's gonna get knocked down by performance issues, but not nearly as much as it should.
Probably will get a 87-89 at best.

I am praying it gets absolutely slammed for being an incompetently made low effort piece of utter trash, but I don't believe it will. Which burns me up, because holy fucking shit this series has potential but will NEVER fucking improve if total shit eaters are somehow satisfied with this garbage. Even Compile fucking Heart was making better games than this a decade ago. COMPILE HEART. How do you get beaten by fucking CH?????

>The Switch's hardware is definitely showing its age, but artisan craftsmen at GameFreak have managed to pump out a rock solid JRPG once again, ensuring that the classic Pokemon formula is as fresh and fun as it was back when you were just a kid playing Pokemon Red

Reviewers already trashed the demo they played, but it's still gonna get a overinflated score cause pkmn payola and cause objectively it's a good game.

Objectively one of the worst professional reviews of all time. And not just because I disagree.

It's almost as if IGN has been terrified of the franchise since the 7.8

To this day the 7.8 remains a completely fair criticism. Hoenn's water routes are boring, and Emerald is my favorite game in the series.
The remakes could have made them more fun but didn't. With them being as shallow as they were, there was too much of it.

They should have included a togglable key item to vastly speed up surfing. That's basically what the Wind Waker remaster did and it fixed basically the same issue on that game.

-worst music in the series (literally mixes of shit music and old themes)
-bait marketing like never before
-worse clipping and animations than pokemon legends
-literally garbage tier designs like never before
-overworld has nothing
-story more annoying than sun and moon
-visual glitches that have seizure affair potential
-no new balls
-lazy repulsive models
-most of the good content probably pushed into paid dlc

0/10
and I loved gen 8 and let's go

I'd also say you could have given the encounters more variety. Players really shouldn't be encountering tentacool and wingull late into the game

This is gonna be it. They're going to call it a massive innovation held back by the Switch being old and pretend that its design flaws are just quirky interesting choices

>she does this for 10 seconds and dismisses them herself immediately after as "nitpicks"
This gets me every single time. Shockingly bad.

Who cares what a bunch of dumbass reviewers and manchildren think of the game? Play it for yourself and come to your own conclusions, faggot. Reviews are only useful to find out of a game is broken on release, not for its actual quality.

I'd say 94-96. There'll still be a massive Nintendo/nostalgia bias but points get taken away for minor slowdown issues and personal complaints regarding character designs. You'll also have one (1) guy tired of getting buttfucked by GF but still has to give it a 7/10 so he won't get fired.

If the game's metascore ended around 30

>Online discourse would be about how toxic crybaby manchildren just want GameFreak to put Horizon Forbidden West graphics on the Switch
>The toys would still sell exactly as well as they've been selling
>Trading card sales would do fine
>The anime wouldn't be affected at all
>The Pokemon Company would tell GameFreak to keep it up
>Nintendo would tell GameFreak to keep it up
>GameFreak would pat itself on the back and put references to their "Haters" in future games (Again)

You guys have looked at the metacritics for the other mainline games right?
Series has never been that high.
It'll probably get 80-84, in line with legends Arceus' 83, and Sword/Shield's 80.
Could even be like BDSP and get sub 75

I really hope we get a lot of reviewers that played PLA earlier in the year. The game is absolutely a step up from SWSH but a huge downgrade from PLA gameplay wise.

I almost had a seizure during the water gym challenge, I pull up to the auction town and the screen blasts black and white for a second. Whats funny is that during the gym fight, my maushold fell through the ground. I've never played a game so buggy and its not a "its v0!!!" thing because I've played countless v0 switch games and none of them were anywhere NEAR this broken
