| TomNook7 02/05/24 8:05:28 PM #89 | Yeah i think my original rating for this in 2019 was 8/10, but after spending the day reevaluating it, imma drop it to 7/10.
I think omniscientless has the gist of it. This shit is just too linear, easy, and hand-holdy, almost to the point of mindlessness. RPGs in general were on fire by 2019, and theres just no excuse for something as big as Pokemon to be this shoddy I think as pokemon fans weve tolerated a lot of poop over the years just because its pokemon, but we deserve better than this man. I take a lot of pride in curating my nintendo switch collection, and unfortunately i think sword and shield gotta go And now im scared for Sun and Moon, but thats gonna have to be a story for another day And Ushi just enjoy Legends for what it is lol.

| TomNook7 02/05/24 3:51:47 PM #47 | I actually thought Legends Arceus was pretty damn good. Being able to throw the Pokeball as a mechanic meant the player could micromanage like a dozen different things at once. Throw one Pokemon out to collect a berry, throw another out to fight something, throw another out to catch a weak Pokemon. Take all the useless Pokemon in your PC and turn them into candy. Accidentally run into super powerful Pokemon in the wild and they literally kill you, which made exploration more meaningful.
It gamified and sped up a lot of the core experience, and personally it's been really hard going back to same old after playing it. Also the story was horrendous, but who cares --- I'm the original TomNook7 from the old days. The other guy is just TomNook. Know your TomNooks. |

In my opinion, in terms of mainline games (so no remakes, no secondary games like Arceus): what in the world lmao I genuinely don't know how people can enjoy S/V lol. I literally cannot fathom it. Even if you fixed all the bugs and framerate issues, it's still fundamentally busted. I remember I discovered an entire city, and there literally wasn't anything to do in it. I've never in my life seen an open world game where you discover things that don't matter. I mean, sure, there was a sandwich shop, but who cares?? Why were those games so obsessed with sandwiches lmao?? And then you go to a gym, and play completely busted mini games. Or go to a team base, and instead of battling Pokemon like normal, you participate in some god awful mini game that bypasses battles, and then you fight a giant car? You literally can't make this shit up --- I'm the original TomNook7 from the old days. The other guy is just TomNook. Know your TomNooks. |

| TomNook7 02/05/24 2:19:23 PM #1 | Ive been a fan of the series since day 1, and ive played through every generation, but Scarlet and Violet really opened my eyes to how bad these games have become
I originally thought Sw/Sh were fine; it was the maximum of bullshit i was willing to tolerate. The gym leaders and battles were fun at least. But now im starting to second guess that. I might revisit sw/sh here in a bit. I feel like ive overlooked a lot of badness from this series just because its pokemon --- I'm the original TomNook7 from the old days.

I still consider it the best game in the series. The online was amazing and had loads of fun playing with people from Gamefaqs. Not played it in like 13 years though so it could feel a lot different to go back to now. im kinda sad i missed out on that. I did get to experience the mario kart ds zeitgeist though, and man those were some good times. I still have my same copy from back then, and i can still look at my friends list with all their customized icons. What a time --- I'm the original TomNook7 from the old days.

I used to HATE this game. I vaguely remember being at a friends house, someone handing me a wii wheel, turned on motion controls, and kept zapping me with the thunder cloud Giving it a second chance this morning, and man I mustve been some kinda hardcore mario kart purist back then, because this is actually pretty good overall. It actually controls a lot better than double dash (which i always felt was too slippery), and seems to lay the groundwork for 8 in a lot of ways Some of the stages are too gimmicky (fuck bouncing on mushrooms), and theres some items that piss me (still hate the thunder cloud), and oh my god the babies on motorcycles are TOO fast. The drifting is also toned down way too much (i guess to get rid of snaking) but overall pretty solid --- I'm the original TomNook7 from the old days. The other guy is just TomNook.
