Comment on Pokémon games have become consistently ugly, and it's alright to wish they weren't
thejml@lemm.ee 17 hours agoWhile it wasn’t necessarily pretty and had its share of glitches, I quite enjoyed Arceus. It was a nice break from the standard patterns it’s fallen into.
Course I say that as someone who also enjoyed Sword and Shield after a skipping a few prior.
Graphics definitely aren’t everything, but they could stop it With the half finished games with glitches.

Arceus was a fun break from the norm, and was even more fun once I played it on ::: spoiler redacted an emulator ::: to remove some of the performance issues my Switch had with it. I’m looking forward to Z-A exclusively because the impression Arceus made (well, and ::: spoiler spoiler mega evolutions ::: ).
I’ve been playing a randomized (and slightly higher level enemy Pokémon) run of Shield after beating it once originally and being quite disappointed, and I’ve enjoyed that pretty thoroughly as well. The return of follower Pokémon in the DLC is something I’ve been asking for since HG/SS.
