Toy Box & Games Cupboard / Re: Let's Go Pikachu / Eevee
« on: September 07, 2018, 04:38:11 AM »
I did have Eevee version preordered, but I cancelled my preorder when I found out that the game won't let you evolve your starter, or box him/her, or have fun.
>Gen 1 AGAIN
>Safari Zone is cut
>Sevii Islands is absent
>No breeding
>Only 151 Pokémon
>152nd is DLC in the form of a dumb gimmicky $50 controller FOR A GAME THAT ALREADY COSTS $60 AT LAUNCH
>$60 game despite less content than games on the Gameboy/GBA from over a decade ago
>Only Pokémon that can be traditionally battled in the wild are legendaries
>Friendly rival instead of Blue
>absurd levels of extreme casualization, insulting the player:
>Exp share works like Gen 6+ but is required and can't be turned off (People who said "Just turn easy-mode features off" lost the game)
>PC is in your bag
>Rival gives you free potions/everything
>No abilities
>No held items
>Every gym has a requirement to get in
>so you have to have a Pokemon that'll steamroll the gym in your party before you can even challenge the gym
>Coop is 2v1 in your favour
>All trainers have less Pokémon
>All trainers have lower level Pokémon
>You only need a single button and an analog stick to play the entire thing
>Laziness/soullessness everywhere:
>Won't bother to even make the model of a fossil Aerodactyl in the museum, which they did in 1996
>Meh graphics
>NPC animations are mostly stiff and have no personality and instead have a handful of cheap emotes
>Lazy one-to-one reproduction of a Gameboy map designed around Gameboy limitations
>Coop produces frame drops (what even is optimization? at this point it's only slightly better than the 3ds)
>Battle animations have less personality than Pokemon Stadium 2 decades ago
>Battle animations are lazy, like Pikachu's Double Kick (wherein they simply move his model straight up without even a jump animation) and Blastoise's Hydro Pump (which doesn't come out of his cannons)
At this point, I seriously think grabbing the eshop versions of RBY would be a better deal.
