>not as immersive as PLA, for instance no berries to lure Pokemon>removed the depth of catching from PLA, no motion controls, no differently weighted Pokeballs, just lock on and you get a perfect throw>no bike or riding Pokemon, only movement options are sprinting and a weird feeling pseudo-double jump>can’t interact with your Pokemon outside ball>the only non-combat activities to speak of are going to the cafe with your Pokemon to take photos, they were too lazy to even implement an animation of you and your Pokemon eating and it just cuts to black>you can gather your Pokemon while sitting at a bench but they just stand there and it’s supposed to be used for taking pictures>Paris but no fashion shows, music concerts, or any mini games>wild zones are tiny and you can catch all Pokemon in one in under 4 minutes provided there aren’t any night time Pokemon>5 different districts but they have no visual identity, entire game looks like some low quality generic assets they pulled from the unity asset store>side quests are bottom of the barrel slop>random NPC dialogue seems AI generated>combat is fine but lacks depth, is clearly unrefined>story is boring>music is fine but overrated by GF defenders>shiny hunting devalued further>online multiplayer is just spamming moves over and over, no strategy to speak of>a lot of the new megas look ass>lack of interiors is insulting, only detailed buildings that were more than a single small room that I saw were the Hotel Z and the museumThere were so many opportunities for variety they could have added. Why not make a Pokemon Snap mini game? You literally have a camera ffs, and Yakuza Infinite Wealth showed you can do that. How about a food delivery minigame, you have to ride a gogoat around Lumious like crazy taxi? Nope, fuck you, enjoy your ugly as sin flat unity asset city with nothing to do except engage in barebones combat. Fucking hell. Scarlet and Violet on Switch 2 and PLA mog this game ruthlessly
>>58446530>>not as immersive as PLA>Glazing the dog shit that is PLA right off the batHello Sinnoh sissy.
every game is going to be a huge disappointment because you retards keep buying them
>>58446530The catching mechanic is the worst offender for me. As soon as you're within throwing distance the mon notices you. Does sneaking actually do anything ever? Then the targeting function doesn't even work half the time unless your camera is facing the mon. Always the same bs with Game Freak.
>>58446530For a F2P Mobile Gacha Game that runs on 15 year old Phones, its totally fine.Its not like you bought a new 500 Dollar Console and 70 Dollar Game to play this .... R I G H T ?
>>58446530PLA Won
>>58446884How are you faggots fucking up sneaking? Its so simple. If the pokemon is facing you, it can see you. There is no skyrim magical stealth function.
>>58446884Even if you're behind it it turns around, no? You should at least be able use the grass to hide away like in PLA.Also is this entire game a tutorial? I've just got to Emma and I'm still being told where I can and can't go and I'm clocking in nearly 5 hours...?!
1 shitty setting + lame af characters + killing a beloved character + unplayable on switch 1 basically + broken battle system + no breeding + woke + mediocre music and designs + dexit + feature cuts + overpriced game and dlc + predatory mega lock with forced online + poor imagining of kalos (which isnt a high point in pokemon)
