Based on her Cobert interview she seems to think of it as a conflict between two sets of white people. When in reality it wasnt a conflict at all, the Nazis were systematically murdering 6 million people for being Jewish.

Reframing it as anything other than that is sinister.

Lol what other series could coast on making so little changes to the formula that when a game, 20+ years into the series, hits a benchmark set by open world games 15 years and be called ambitious as a result?

Skyrim, New Vegas, Witcher 3, Witcher 2, etc etc etc. Clearly the technical issues pale in comparison to how fun the game is.

Stay mad that the game is good. That's very healthy

All games, with the possible exception of New Vegas, that were all incredibly ambitious. What ambitions does this game have? To not meet the benchmark of open world games of 15 years ago?

Im not criticizing you or your game really. If you like it and enjoy it, fine. Plenty of people enjoyed Skyrim and Cyberpunk, etc. Im bemoaning the sorry state of gaming journalism, that a game with so many technical issues and a severe lack of ambition can garner so much praise because Nintendo publish it.

Im not taking joy. Im just pointing out that some companies get an easy ride by gaming press and despite the game leaks exposing how bad it looked I rightly predicted it wouldnt be a factor in somehow achieving critical acclaim

Is it fun? Thats all I care about.

While the graphical quality of SwSh was disappointing, the actual main game was a joke which is what I cared about moreso (I mainly bought the game to play VGC doubles online so I did get my moneys worth for sure).

Cool, plenty of people found Cyberpunk fun, but whats the deal with a game with some many technical issues, that looks like it has the graphical fidelity of a PS2 game, getting a free pass from supposed impartial critics?

Pokemon stans constantly toking that copium and lying to themselves upon every main series release, rejecting reality.

Well, I understand fans overrating it and looking over glaring issues, praising changes that should have been made years ago, etc but it really is obvious Nintendo get an easy ride by the gaming press

Those nitpicks are compounded again by the technical state of Legends: Arceus, which by modern standards - or, depending on your mood, even rather un-modern standards - is really not great at all. There's regular pop-in, along with so-so frame rates and remarkably low-quality textures, and this is just the stuff in the foreground. Animations - aside from the endearing characterisations of the Pokmon themselves, which rightfully take priority - are minimal at best, edging dangerously close to that infamously under-animated Zacian/Zamazenta that blankly swivelled on the spot during the climax of Sword and Shield.

Lol from the Eurogamer review game would look average 15 years ago and has technical issues out the ass yet gets recommended.

The worst thing about this is its going to get critical acclaim because its Nintendo. I guarantee the press will praise it to high heaven just because its different to typical Pokemon games, when in reality if this was a new IP made by someone else it would be panned.
