>skipped Sun and Moon >skipped sword and shield>got scarlet yesterday>"yeah bro they fixed most of the issues with the game">game still runs at under 20 FPS>combat moves at a snails pace>characters are plain out boring>cities are life and loreless>stores aren't unique buildings, they are just UI interfaces>EXP share is on by default >Koraidon looks like a digimon>open world but with nothing in it, its unfun to traverse it >instant fast travel from the start of the gameI mean, I'm a 30 year old grown ass man playing a childrens game but, come on now. Was sword and shield as bad as this?
>>56465651Base game sword and shield is worse, while the DLC makes for the best stories and content since the swap to 3D.
>>56465651>Was sword and shield as bad as this?You don't know this because you skipped SM and SWSH but yes, Scarlet and Violet was the first rebound we've had in spite of the performance issues.
>>56465651>combat moves at a snails paceSV is worse here and it's very obvious>characters are plain out boringSwSh, there's an entire character where her only noteworthy traits are being a little girl, a Dark type trainer, and not smiling often. That's literally it>cities are life and lorelessAbout equal cause in SwSh every town beyond the first two only exists for the Gyms>stores aren't unique buildings, they are just UI interfacesSV, universally hated>EXP share is on by default Been like that since SM iirc>Koraidon looks like a digimonI like Digimon personally, but seeing as this is a negative I have to say this started in USUM with picrel>open world but with nothing in it, its unfun to traverse it Exploring has been fucked for a while at this point, whether you saw it in [generation the board hates the most] or [when you grew up] is up to you>instant fast travel from the start of the gameNew to SV, but SwSh's was the first big city which isn't much better (you also have to talk to an unmarked NPC to get access to volume settings, yes really)I'd still say SwSh is worse
>>56465651Evey Switch game has been worse than the last.PLA was decent but it's a spinoff. PLZA already looks pretty shit in comparison too.
Wait till you find out EXP Share can't be turned off and that they removed Set mode.
Also>game repeatedly shows adults still in pokemon school>forced to play as a 10 year old regardless
>>56465651SM is the best out of the games you mentioned, should be playing it instead. Comfy atmosphere with great characters.
>>56465651>saying 'looks like a digimon'I knew you were being disingenious but now I know you're just baiting
>>56465651You walked right into that one pal, you had it coming. You stuck around and found out. You ignored the hundreds of threads telling you its not worth buying and you just had to try it. It even works better in emulator than in cart
>>56465651Sun moon was greatyou missed out
>>56465651>skipped Sun and Moon>got scarletkek what a retard
>>56465651brother I'm givin you about 5 seconds to quit playing that pozzed nu-gen shiet and get back to the Frontlines genwarring
>>56465651Yet with all this problem its best pokemon game since bw (or PLA)
>>56465651SwSh is worseAlso the characters are literally the only good thing about the game, best story we had so far
