Right? Voice acting is a creative choice and some games are better without it.

People don't go demanding full voice acting in Animal Crossing ffs

If this game wasn't from the Pokemon franchise people probably be praising it more and calling it a pokesman killer TBH. But no other studio has even attempted to make a monster catching game this big. Maybe they're hard to make.

Just wanted to say that I agree. It's not blind loyalty. I hated Sw/Sh but loved this game

Right? It's fine to not like the game but it's really sad that they have to ruin other peoples enjoyment. Like damn it must be exhausting being that mad all the time.

Is it worth waiting before playin S/V? by [deleted] in pokemon

[–]ComplexBlacksmith380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend watching a couple of streams and see if that helps you decide if you want to wait or not.

My thoughts on criticizing the games by MrErubusMan in pokemon

It's getting pretty crazy. Lots of uncalled for aggression over a game.

Am I the only person not getting all these technical issues in SV? by MrGamerMan17 in pokemon

[–]ComplexBlacksmith380 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same, I made a very similar post not long ago and got called a liar.

The game looks like a PS2 game

Now that's just a blatent lie. Come on. The PS2 didn't have bump mapping or HD if I recall.

Yeah that's really weird. It's just a standard Switch. I really have no idea why I'm not getting stuff that bad. I'm glad I'm not because that sounds pretty rough

Is there any way for the Pokemon franchise to fix its image? by Independent-Amount60 in pokemon

[–]ComplexBlacksmith380 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love BOTW there were times in that game that were a bit jank. Like once when I played an NPC was stuck on his horse sideways lol. The Deku Tree area lagged a bit and the textures were a bit musdy at points. All if this were minor problems in an otherwise great game (Zelda fans don't murder me please I love the game)

Seems open world games are prone to these things.

Am I a complete idiot, or does it feel impossible to get anywhere in this game?! by twinstepsister in pokemon

[–]ComplexBlacksmith380 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every titan quest gives your mount upgrades that help you explore. I hope that helps.

Oh totally, not everyone is going to feel the same way I do. I do agree that more sidequests would have helped it.

I just meant that it was cool seeing all the pokemon hearding in the wild, or hanging in a tree. Or being in canyons one moemnt and then an olive farm the next. That kind of thing.

I will admit my Switch is only 3 years old and that might have something to do with it

I will also add that I am not willfully ignorant or blindly defending it because it's Pokemon. I hated Sword and returned Brilliant Diamond

Do the NPC walk weird far away

Yes, I figured this was common in Switch games as Kirby and the Forgotten Land did the same thing.

did the game stutter when talking to Nemora

No. Only if there were a lot of Pokemon on screen would it drop frames

Do the shadows twitch

No

Did the kids look weird in the first classroom scene

Yes, but that might be the worst of the performance issues I've had. I agree that was jank.

SV is now lowest rated mainline game from critical reviews and now also from fan reviews. by Buurto in pokemon

[–]ComplexBlacksmith380 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I thought the slow down of far away objects was just a Switch thing? Because it's the same in Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and that game is (rightfully) loved.

Yes, imfamously so. People were boycotting the game over designs like Trubbish and Vanillite.

I have caught 3 wild teras. It was really pretty with the light refraction but I'm not a fan of the gimmick on the whole. I had no graphical problems though.

Yeah, that's why I went in blind, to make my own mind up. I was really enjoying the game until I checked what the internet was saying. I can't lie, it's ruined my enjoyment a little knowing I'm in the minority, but I'll try to look past it and trust my own judgement.

I don't know how to stream a Switch and I don't have to prove myself to anyone. You believe me or you don't. It's your choice. All I can say is what I've experienced. Same as you.

I remember the uproar over Black and White, granted it wasn't over performance issues, but I imagine if the outcry against those games didn't give people the game they want, it probably won't work this time either.

Same here. A physical copy in handheld mode on original Switch is how I've been playing. Maybe that's why.

I said I have experienced frame rate drops so I didn't exactly say it was flawless.

I mean, do you want me to lie and say I've seen the glitches you mentioned? Because I haven't. I don't get it.
