Sun & Moon is underated
>>56444244Go play a finished game, like Ultra Sun or Ultra Moon.
>>56444244I don’t think so. I dropped the franchise due to these games.The hate it gets is deserved.
>>56444244The artstyle is fantastic in places. Some of the best in the series. In other areas the art and designs are half baked.
>>56444244USUM is only fun if you are doing a solo run. SM is probably worse. So no it’s not underrated, I’ve never played the game but I’m sure it is appropriately rated.
>>56444244i believe the sentiment on alola will change as times goes on, similar to how it was with unova. at the time of release people were lukewarm on gen v now it's fondly looked back on as one of the greats. alola is sadly the best 3d game game freak has ever made. we just didn't know how good we had it.
>>56444553Fuck off delcattynazi
>>56444244They're the best of the 3D era easily
>>56444244region sucks, campaign sucks, postgame sucks these games are shit
>>56444584You caught me, good detective work anon!
>>56445899Are you lost?
>>56444575except unova was always good and any real hatred dissipated by bw2, alola was shit on release and it's still shit now
>>56445904Are you jewish?
>>56444244they fucking suck lmao. I haven't bought a pokemon game since these stinkers
>>56445868Thanks :DNow go back ->>/pol/
>>56444244It's not underrated, it's divisive. Some people just don't like visual novels.
>>56444244I fucking love SM, but I would compare it to Dark Souls 2 or MGSV or FFX-2.It's not a good addition to the franchise, but as its own thing, it stands out strong.SM isn't a good Pokemon game, but I think it's a great JRPG.
>>56444244The entire pokemon series is monorail "lead you by the nose" but at least does a good job of making it seem less obvious. They flesh the world out a bit. Sun and Moon made absolutely no or little attempt to hide it. It felt very stripped down and low effort. I loved wishiwashi though
>>56444244SM/USUM introduced almost nothing new or impressive and the region itself was a huge disappointment since it was a whole bunch of wasted potential once again but unlike XY it was portrayed as if it wasn’t. And SM and USUM never expanded on anything that XY introduced or left incompete.>Z moves are just a stupid mechanic that could have easily been replaced by buffing the elemental gems>regional forms are great but initially it was nothing more than just Kanto pandering>island trails are underwhelming and no where near as good and gyms>the entire region was boring and there was virtually nothing to do in all the islands minus one of them. > no new megas > Zygarde was a huge disappointment >Hawaii has some amazing underwater reefs and sea caves, but in Alola neither of those things were utilized at all, there could have been sections where you dive to unlock cool items or explore and catch Alolan Pokémon, or just to explore more caves. Again just wasted potential.>catching native alolan Pokemon were incredibly difficult as most of them had incredibly low encounter rate compared to older pokemon. >the characters minus the professor, Guzma, and nanu were some of the most boring and uninteresting characters in the series yet.> hau was another friendly boring rival that was never a threat> In USUM you can catch legendaries in space, this makes no sense for some legendaries like Ho-oh or Lugia as they are bound to earth only and it was just another lazy way to write legendaries in the game. ORAS did the same thing but it actually made sense since it was Hoopa summoning them with the rings.>ultra recon squad were pointless and unnecessary Cutscene simulator PokeHawaii edition isn't underrated, it's just dogshit
>>56444244I have played every gen and I hated this one the most.
>>56444278Sun and Moon are much better than SwoShit and ScatVomit.
>>56447027so good thing he dropped the franchise before it became even worse
