Topic	I've genuinely never seen this much bad PR for a game before (Pokemon)

I would have been fine with a complete reboot as long as it was a complete overhaul with production values on par with Nintendo's other top games. Instead they went with the same incremental upgrade as before, except with fewer Pokemon. It's the worst of both worlds. Well, fewer altogether. Though, as someone else pointed out, its still more than a lot of other games. And again, thats you being ok with it. Not everyone would have wanted a complete overhaul. Some would have said, why not keep some of the old ones. And then, there would be a different controversy. Which goes back to nobody being happy because everybody wants the perfect game that fits their needs. But they cant do that. So, they make a game they like that works for them. BanjoBoomer posted... There will always be people who complain, but it's a matter of degree. Far fewer people complain about Mario Odyssey, BotW, and Smash Ultimate than about Sword and Shield. Just like far fewer people complained about the Metroid Prime games than Other M, far fewer people complained about Thousand Year Door than Color Splash. Not everything is going to stir up the same amount of negative backlash. And Gamefreak definitely has the resources necessary to make a game that wouldn't cause this kind of massive backlash. While SSBU didnt get much (though I hear the smash board is insane), and Mario Odyssey haters were kind of their own brand (people hating the whole game due to one or two songs i.e. the ones with lyrics), BotW actually got a lot of hate. All around. Probably less, but not by a ton. And you dont really know how many people would have complained. The problem is what people are complaining about. Just because Dexit seems to be the biggest issue for you and some others here doesnt mean it was the biggest issue to others. Some may only bring it up because its another reason to complain. Or because others are complaining about it. And I cant say anything about whether Gamefreak has the resources or not. Im not an expert of game development teams. They did what they did for a reason. But Im not going to just assume everything about a company just because some people have found a few numbers on their company and wants to make any assumptions... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you.
