She just referred to missing half the pokedex as "nitpicking" (at 6:12 is when it begins)

"I'd still like better cutscenes, companion pokemon, complete pokedex, and a more visually interesting wild area, but nitpicks are just not very effective when everything else was such a complete joy to play"

The way she totally buries it in there is such a damage control attempt. Like it's "oh just another nitpick"

It's half the fucking pokedex. That alone would drop it off two full points of any review, and that's assuming everything else is completely 10/10.

No, it's nitpicking

Less than half the pokedex

is not a nitpick

A game being good or bad has nothing to do about the over abundance of monsters.

Street Fighter removing characters is not worth removing points from a review unless there is an extremely slim roster.

How many pokemon are in this game

Let me answer your question with another question

Why is the game better with fewer?


Because they spent time building a new world and the reviewers agree

Did they, though?

So enough for diversity and fun


So, less than previous games offered on a 14 year old handheld system.

At some point you have to grow up and realize it's not about you anymore, it's about attracting new players

So you believe that its ok for Game Freak to lie to the fans?

You enjoy teaching high schoolers, and I'll enjoy creating my crappy manga. Let's see where we both are in a year. TheDoorMouse

So even though the unbiased "leakers" with no agenda have literally showcased gameplay and substantiated all of the issues broken down in the link above, the hill you want to die on is reviewers with agendas (sell more games) are saying it's good?

Weird hill to die on.
