>>58993680i think it will be a better and more polished game than either of the switch titles but i still anticipate the gameplay problems i've had with the modern series to remain>section of the dex reserved for remixing old pokemon>too much qol>boring character writing>bland world design with every biome awkwardly thrown in
5 years of development time and seemingly reusing assets from Scarlet Violet's engine makes me hopeful the game will feel like a finished game this time.
>>58993765>boring character writingHow is this a "modern series" problem though? Like the classic games pretty much peak at BW in character complexity and yet everyone there is still pretty boring and lack interesting character dynamics. The series kind of has always sucked scriptwriting wise.
>>58993680Weirdly, I’m kind of hopeful. I’m keeping my expectations realistic though. It’s Game Freak, they’ll probably find a way to fuck up in ways we’ve never seen before.
>>58993780thats kind of fair honestly, maybe what i meant to refer to was those long stretches of dialogue in the newer games where you're just mashing through text for what feels like forever
