Topic: Pokemon Sword & Shield

Sorry, for

Nintendo Enthusiast mentioned it as why they haven't put a review out yet.

They've not noticed graphical glitches or lag. I'm hearing online that this might be due to one of the leakers hacking the game.

@Galenmereth I saw that a while back, it’s partially why I gave them the benefit of the doubt. People I follow started sharing that dataminers datamined the games and found that the current models are nearly entirely identical to the older ones. Only a handful have very minor changes like Pikachu having a slightly more defined neck.

@Ralizah Even the Nintendo Life review mentioned some lag and graphical issues, so there's certainly some truth to all that.

@Snaplocket Also waiting for people to play it before I throw $60 at this. But what's highly suspicious about many of these reviews (which I hadn't noticed before) is how in the fineprint they state that they may be getting a commission for sales occurring through their website. Pretty big conflict of interest, no?

Ah, apparently a person who was streaming the game (which was apparently the source of some of the 'video evidence' of glitches in the game) hacked it to give themselves 999 master balls.

Which isn't to say there are no issues, obviously. SuMo had some issues; I'm sure this will as well.

Either way, once the game officially releases, we'll have our answer.

And SuMo had lot of issues if you played with original 3DS.

So how early do we get access to breeding? i usually start breeding the moment i get access to the daycare center, i even use some of my bred pokemon for the playthrough, i did it in both Pokemon Alpha Sapphire and Pokemon Sun,

I asked a guy on reddit about the memorial area in the game and unfortunately he told me that there isn't one just like in X/Y. You catch ghost Pokémon is some Castle ruins. It might seem silly but those areas bring a special touch to the game. A grim one.
A little disappointed

I think that the lack of random encounters is the reason why reports of games length is so varied. If you just "skip" all battles in wild, you could rush the game fast. But, last games (XY, ORAS, SuMo) story took about 20-25 hours.

The lack of random trainers in the game seems odd as one of the new features is collecting the battle cards for people.

Looks like its gonna be way longer than 15 hours

Doesn't care 15 hours or longer or shorter gameplay hours, i will digging in Pokemon Sword once i get the game. 😉

I know some people were worried about this.

Well that’s excellent

Quality! That's one of my worries off my list.
