They were kino, but this board isn't ready for that discussion.

Can you imagine people shilled this game for 3 years and then immediately dropped it for the next game? We don't even talk about it anymore other than to shit on it or people for "being mad about it being shit"

They lack substance outside of the coombait and did nothing but confirm retards do NOT deserve high quality games

It didn't get a patch, happens sometimes when you throw stuff on a new architecture. Look at all the old games that barely run on modern computers unless you do a ton of work. It's not unplayable or anything, but you can notice it running around

The point is that these areas have a higher level than the champion, to include them earlier, you'd have to raise the champion's level even more and generally extend the main campaign, it's better the way it is now than not having them at all, like Kalos.

So? The gameplay is exactly the fucking same because your levels will also be higher than the champion.

He'd be a better character if he actually acted autistic but no, nothing about his character or personality is consistent with what he did.

they’re alright
not as good as the previous games, but they’re not the affront to pokémon that people like to say it is
unfortunate, because of all the swsh hate, you will get kids later on down the line who think they’re the best in the series and make up strawmen to defend it (has already happened with 4,5, and 6)

I'm sorry but no. The only standout things about them are that they introduced some quality of life like the portable box and exp candies etc. The gym stadiums looked cool and the DLCs had some fun characters but that's really it.
They are the most bland and cookie cutter ones otherwise

OP is absolutely right. SwSh+DLC is clearly the best Switch Pokemon game, and possibly the best 3D Pokemon game sofar (tied with USUM).

SwSh has so much content but the r*tards on this board like to shit on this game because it started Dexit (as if it was the only game with a Dex Cut lmfao).
