The game is supposed to be for people that go "I want Pokemon GO, but more."

It's good for those people.

I don't think any of my complaints have anything to do with pokemon go. I LIKE pokemon go, and brought it a pokemon go fan to try to play the game with me. Pokemon go isn't perfect, but it has a lot of really good elements to the design that aren't brought into let's go.

Take the catching in both games, in GO a curved ball "excellent" catches nearly everything on the first try, but it's pretty difficult for beginners and for certain pokemon, so sometimes you might go with just a simple "nice" or use a higher level ball. There's options for different levels of skill. Berries are on one side, balls are on the other, and switching between them is completely seamless (provided there's not a network error) Even for high level raid rewards I never felt like not catching a pokemon was out of my control, even if it was.

In Let's go comparatively, the only thing you can do is get an "excellent" and it's fairly easy to do for even for a beginner. So outside of using your best berry and using an ultra ball, there's really nothing else that can be done except keep getting "excellent"s and hope the RNG treats you well. I failed to get several pokemon because I just used all my ultra balls with mostly perfect throws but I wasn't lucky enough to catch them. Berries are in the same menu with balls, they're weirdly mixed in, and you have to confirm every single move you want to make. The clunkier element means it takes much longer to get a lot of throws against a pokemon and the whole experience feels more dull and less tense.
