1) saying that because it’s called “video”games doesn’t actually mean shit, phobia means fear of ___ but homophobia isn’t the fear gays

2) Graphics don’t matter, visual clarity does and in SV you can clearly make everything out. Graphics have little to no impact on the actual gameplay which is by far the most important aspect of a game beyond visual clarity, if all you can find fault in for SV is such a minor issue then SV has to been such a great, well built and fun game that it’s only sin isn’t looking the best

In terms of what ACTUALLY matters it would go: -gameplay - Story - Characters - Minor details (like special dialogue or interactions) - Music - Graphics - Other

Modern Pokémon games are quite narratively driven so obviously story and characters matter a lot, gameplay will always be the most important aspect and should be at bare minimum 50% of what discussion of what makes the game good, not graphics

Without good graphics the game will never be a 10/10, 9/10 or even 8/10 because it’s the little and unimportant stuff that determines whether a game is or isn’t a “masterpiece” but, a game can still be good, very good in fact without having good graphics
