What bothered people about the game was it not having more pokemon, abilities not being integrated and not enough fully fledged trainer battles.
Meanwhile SV in comparison:
>Countless visual glitches>Fast travel as a bandaid>Most mons not learning any moves they had in past gens>Single member team battles vs NPC trainers (like at least give them 2 or 3 mons so they are actually a challenge)>Slow messy interfaces>Fucked up scaling and encounter mechanics (like 90% of the pokemon are tiny you accidentally step on them)>Being randomly teleported across terrain in wild battlesEtc...
Basically SV are the Faulout 76 of Gamefreak.
