The graphics and performance are truly embarrassingly bad. They should be deeply ashamed that they shipped the game in that state. They deserve all the critique they're getting in this aspect. The fact that entire outbreaks can spawn in walls shows that the game was literally unfinished.
However, it did do some things right. The story and writing improved a lot compared to previous gens, they're the best we've had so far. I liked the new mons, has some really cool ones like Garganacl and Chien-Pao. Paradoxes are a cool concept, but the Future ones are really lame cause they barely changed. They should've added more convergents and regional forms, too. The open world stuff was ok, it works pretty well for Pokémon. If they polish it further they could get something pretty good.
Overall I think it's overhated because it's so easy to shit on it due how bad it looks "from the outside". So a lot of people who never played it jump on the hate bandwagon, like
>>56483619 for example. You can tell he 100% didn't play it, but thinks he's doing the world a favour by voicing his extremely poorly informed opinion. It's just weird.
