Has a game sucked so much that it actually made you appreciate another?For me SV made me actually think SwSh is good.
>>59239999Seeing BW2’s awful sprites made me appreciate HGSS and XY more.
>>59239999You should look at the Sonic fanbase. They love the bad games while trashing the actual good ones.
>>59239999Yep in the same boat, I was fucking baffled how fucking shit SV was literally nothing in it was interesting, I at least got a little enjoyment out of SwSh with that Co-Op Raid Dungeon you could do with friends in the 2nd dlc and the little tag team tourney you could do with the SwSh cast at the end of the dlc was neat (was actually a nice send-off to the game), but SV it was just miserable and the dlc's didn't help in the slightest, the Open World might be the worst Open World I've ever had the displeasure "exploring".
>>59240029Also SwSh at least has a pretty enjoyable and replayable endgame provided you have the DLC. It sucks that you have to shell out additional 30usd but at least is worth it.That's way more than I can say about SV.
>>59239999SWSH sucked at absolutely everything except the Pokegirls which puts it above SV which fucked absolutely everything up
6 threads a day with 1-2 sentence OP and image of sv and/or swsh
>>59240180The only good pokewoman SV has for me is the bug lady and the rocker chic from the evil team..Not even nemona or the vtuber were of my taste.
>>59239999Not really, no. When Pokemon sucks, it has little-to-no redeeming qualities. The only post-DS games that had the slightest spark of potential have been gen 7, and they wasted every bit of that potential so thoroughly that it's still impossible to look back on with fondness no matter how much shittier gen 8 was.
>>59239999A turd does not stop stinking just because an elephant dropped a larger one next to it.
I know it’s bait, but name one thing SWSH does better than SV
>>59239999Fucking how? The only thing it did better where the raids and arguably aesthetic.
>>59239999Other way round for me. SwSh was so fucking shit that SV made me love Pokémon again.
>>59239999SV was so shit lmao
>>59240377Humans in gen 8 dont look like dogshit.Also it had a built-in LAN mode, which meant you could use it, alongside some DNS tricks, to "locally" play with friends on the other side of the planet, all without having to use or pay for Nintendo Online.This allowed piratefags to play with buyfags.
>>59239999>SwSh It had good character/mon designs, but it had poor storytelling and world building. Also it one ups SV in art style, SV's art style tries to look realistic which looks really uncanny. DLC gave it some life because the base game felt very bare bones. There's also nothing wrong with the game being linear like other past Pokémon games, but it needed more routes/caves/areas to explore. Oh yeah and Dexit, depends on how autistic you are for all the mons being in the game. I didn't care too much about that because I use new region mons when I play.>SVThe character/mon designs are okay, but a lot of them just don't work though. Storytelling and world building is great, definitely beats SwSh in that department, I loved Area Zero and Paradox mons. The performance issues really hurts SV though, yeah they fixed it with the Switch 2 patch, but it was too late the damage has already been done. I also think Terastallization was a better gimmick than Dynamax, changing your type was way better than going giant gaining HP/with budget Z-moves, but the hats look silly sadly.So in conclusion, both games sucked in some parts but we're good in certain departments. 50/50 split
>>59239999XY made me realise that the DS era was absolutely peak, especially Gen 5
>>59241950same
>>59239999SWSH was worse thought
>>59239999I'll take SwSh over SV
>>59240377I can name several, you brought this upon yourself.>Better graphics. SwSh has an actual artstyle unlike the "game that barely made it out of alpha# style of SV>Better music (this was a low bar tho)>Better pokedex>Better textures over whatever they got from Google for SV>Better designs for new pokemon>Better Endgame (the Bottler Tower was dogshit but it's still SOMETHING, SV got nothing)>Better DLC which added a replayable better endgame>Better character design (At least characters in SwSh still had a semblance of belonging to Pokemon, SV lost all soul and personality, feel like generic drawings)>Better progression >Better atmosphere (Even if the game is piss easy, Galar is AT THE VERY LEAST, a more enjoyable and nicer region to explore with actual soul over Untextured Alpha Land, I'm sorry I mean Paldea)>Better starters>Better Champion (the game sure sucks Leon's dick but at least he's charismatic)Shall I continue?
>>59240180The only people who cry about SWSH are people who are just assblasted that it's set in England
>>59240377Absolutely everything.It doesn't look like a fake, fanmade AI slop mobile game for one
>>59242599>Better pokedexLMFAOstopped reading there
>>59241875Do you love the idea of being in school with your special friends?
>>59242613Sure going over each entry one by one in SV is leagues better
>>59242613I'm sorry mate but I can't in good faith believe you actually think this is better.
>>59239999It's okay to be stupid, although I would boast about it.
>>59239999replaying old games made me realise that PLA and SV are a good future for the franchise
>>59242702That's my gripe with SV: it's THE FRAMEWORK of the best Pokemon game we never got.Too bad everything around it sucked.
>>59242613you stayed for the meme tree game with the worst music having "better graphics and music"?
>>59239999Sword and Shield was so bad that I genuinely thought this was it for Pokemon and dropped the series. A relative of mine bought me Scarlet and Violet and I didnt play it until after 4-5 months he gave it to me, only to realize how wrong I was. SV reignited some of my love for Pokemon again.
>>59242631I literally can't even remember SwSh's dex lolAlso Galar mons are SHIT except like 5 of them>>59242718Those were already laughable takes yeah but yeah that one took the cake
>>59242718It's ONE tree vs a whole game that looks like this.You must be trolling if you don't think SwSh looks better just because the bar isn't just low, it's underground.
>>59242725>SV reignited some of my love for Pokemon againAre you joking? This?
I just can't fathom how anyone can remotely even find SV enjoyable, unless you're a third world Zoomer with shit taste
>>59239999>For me SV made me actually think SwSh is good.Other way around going back to play SwSh for some dex completion made me fucking hate it even more and miss SV
>>59242841Both games are ugly the whole way through, but SwSh is even worse because everything is of inconsistent quality and muddied by aggressive backlights and colour filters
>>59239999I thought SV were way better than SwSh.
>>59242845this but every mainline game
>>59242851>SV is better because is CONSISTENTLY UGLY instead of just having one thing that's uglyOk, thank you for confirming you're trolling.
>>59242864>just having one thing that's uglyall of swsh is ugly and the post says that lol
>>59242872Bitch please, get serious.
>>59242897you can cherrypick random screenshots from both games to make one look better or worse than the other, they're both still pretty awful throughout
>>59242851This has to be bait. The cartoon and bright style is great in comparison to a game that looks like an unfinished mobile one (with fugly models too, they all look like they are made out of washed out clay)
>>59242922Hey also found that facebook post screenshot with the fucker going "guys the 60 dollar game with the 30 dollar DLC is actually passable if you buy the 600 dollar console"SwSh at least doesn't need a console bruteforcing its graphics like a bandaid.
>>59242929>cartoon "style">it's a bunch of mismatched assets thrown together many of which fail to match the simplistic visuals of the most important assets (trainers/pokemon) while being drabbed under a multiply layer and dragged over a spotlight
>>59242855>wereThank you for proving my point ESL retard
>>59242946NTA but c'mon man, a typo doesn't mean shit.
>>59242922Just admit you hate it because it's in England or whatever you third worlders seethe about
>>59242951It's not a typo. It's an incorrect usage of the word "were"It should be "was"And I really don't believe that you're "nta" either
>>59242943So it being bright, vibrant and eye catching is much less appealing than fuck ugly washed out colours and models in a game that looks like it was shat out of a shitty mobile engine.Zoomer thirdworlder logic.
>>59242957Actually, "were" is correct because the abbreviations refer to a pair of games. You don't say "I thought Scarlet and Violet was better", you say were, it would only make sense when referring to a singlular title.
>>59242960you're a toddler that gets tricked by flashy lights
>>59242970Are we really going "I more mature than you because I prefer the duller, worse looking game"?
>>59242962Fucking idiot go back to school.>"I thought SV were way better than SwSh.">"I thought SV WAS way better than SwSH."This is the average Zoomer third worlder on 4chan.
>>59242970Sorry I just don't have shit tastes that prefers things to look like lifeless, dull coloured mud
What's with this one guy having a fetish for third world zoomers? Dude is bringing it up every post he can.
>>59242996Because it's just blatantly obvious
>>59242996Must be either a kid who thinks being a mega racist is hip or an aspie with an hyper fixation with showing how much he hates thirld worlders.So in other words, a pokemon fan.
>>59243000Seemed to trigger something in you samefaggots though
>>59243007>samefaggotsSo you're also a schizo.
>>59243010Well by all means, screencap me.But yeah, I suppose so
>>59243014>Well by all means, screencap me.I actually did but forgot to paste said screen.
>>59243000At least it's safe to say it's just one guy samefagging to defend SwSh.
>>59243018I'm not samefagging because I'm not pretending to be someone else anywhere
>>59243018I'm ONE of the guys defending SwSh and I can safely say in this thread we're at least three.
>>59243024im sorry to hear you lost three of your members, falinksi hope you can get them back soon
>>59243027You lost, SVtranny
>>59242599>Better DLCThrowing legendary pokemon in your face in an unconventional way doesn't make it good.
>>59243042You know fully well that's not ALL the DLCs offer.
>>592399999's of truth. Glad to see competent anons ITT Swsh was shit too, but to say SV was any better is fucking insane, let alone more polished. Thought I was losing my mind dealing with these retards in the other thread>>59239250>>59239250>>59241470>>59241709>>59241971
>>59242897>>59242922I wish GF put more effort into dungeons and hidden locations rather than the open world wild area meme because babies wanted le "breath of the wild but Pokémon!"
>>59244056looks like you got bodied like you always do
>>59244056>a bunch of reasonable postscool links I guess
>>59244929>>59244939How does it feel knowing your game is ass, retards
>same exact reaction picit's like a bot or something
>>59244947Instant reply nearly 10 hours later as well, absolute dead internet theory.
>>59244906>I wish GF put more effort into dungeons and hidden locationsWhile I can't stand the open world meme either, this was never going to happen regardless since normalfags bitched so much about Mt. Coronet.
SV Dlc is better than both the base game and SwSh
