I didn't? Once I saw it ran better on Switch 1 than previous Pokemon games and the animations looked better I knew Pokenormiefags would love it, they never had high standards to begin with.

This is an echo chamber for incompetent spergs who either can't or won't play nice with the normie internet and huffing their own farts as to being the only "true" Pokémon fans alive.

Everyone is so caught up in Rage baiting they forgot that a game really needs to suck for the rage to stick.
And like, nothing is going to stick to this game.
there are a lot of things a person could pick out as flaws. But nothing that interferes with the core experience of battling, raising pokemon, and having an adventure.

I'm mad they FOMOed me... but I bought it and farmed until I got a Greninjte anyways.

The people who defend the state of modern Pokémon are like women who rate 6/10 in attraction - and semi regularly get fucked by Chad while holding on to the delusion that the relationship between them is a supportive and loving one
Chad/thePokemonCompany need only text once a month so he can tell the girl/pokefan to take them to the movies/buy the game
Being in her luteal phase of the month/sentimental cycle of nostalgia - the woman/pokefan overwhelmed by tingles - trips over themselves to cancel all of their plans to make the date happen and they gladly pay any amount asked of chad/thePokemonCompany
After the movie/purchasing the new slop, Chad/thePokemonCompany proceeds to sodomize the woman/pokefan in theater parking lot
Chad/thePokemonCompany - is further empowered/disgusted by the stark absence of self respect from the girl/pokefan
The woman/pokefan ends up having to call an Uber
On the ride back home - anus still pulsating/throbbing - the girl/pokefan daydreams and reminiscences about all the goofy goober adventures chad/thePokemonCompany has provided/ass pulled for them
The dumb slut/pokefaggot - exhausted - passes out on the bed satisfied
But not before creating an account for the user media rating website - Metacritic - and rating Pokémon Legends Arceus ZA a 10/10

People do hate the game. The reviews on Metacritic speak for themselves. It's just that most of them are still paypigs who can't help themselves and will keep buying the slop even as they complain about it.

Metacritic doesn't mean shit in 2025

>>58457158
Why have the shills and enablers been crying so hard about the so-called "review-bombing" for days now if it doesn't mean shit? Clearly that 4.3 is hurting your feelings.

Reality/truth don't matter to modern pokefags they'll come to believe they're being persecuted for having low standards
At some point, to them - it becomes a taboo to enjoy an incomplete mediocre cash grab
And as a transgressive group/defenders of mediocrity they form a feeling brotherhood/belonging among themselves
I used to think it was solely the idea of the sunken cost fallacy at play but now I believe this can only explain some of the behavior I see
I possibly perceive this in other groups of people
Pokemon I think - is just another manifestation of this

>>58457167
It's low-effort, inflammatory spam from a source that doesn't even require somebody to provide evidence that they've experienced whatever is being reviewed. User reviews for new, mainstream games on Metacritic are worthless.

Game Freak have truly outdone themselves with this entry into the franchise. I just can’t believe how alive and fully realised the world feels. Finally, their years of world building have come together to create the perfect Pokemon Project. Exploring those beautiful vistas we always imagined as children with our Pokemon, every building bustling with NPCs, the architecture unique, with every nook and cranny feeling lived in. Wow, my friends. Game Freak have created with the Pokemon IP (the biggest franchise in the world at this point) a truly perfect video game. Just wow! Erm, all I can say friends and puppers is that this is GOTY material.

Okay normie, whatever you say

>>58456517
Even my normie acquaintances that bought all the other switch titles are dogpiling on it.
