@anoyonmus Almost like different people have different opinions, right? But apparently criticizing something is not to your liking, so we shouldn't do it.
I have mixed feelings about this game. On one side I like that they're updating Diamond and Pearl because even though I liked them, Gen 4 was slow as hell. On the other side it is looking more and more like an extremely safe remake, to the point that it bears question if it should exist at all.
@electrolite77 I referred to his assumption that everyone that disliked the video wasn't satisfied with the original service. I was, therefore he is wrong about that statement.
@johnvboy Sorry, I wasn't clear to what I was referring. I meant regarding this sentence:
"So a huge percentage out of the internet minorities that never liked the original service, do not like the new expansion or it's price, what a genuine shocker. " I'm an example that this is not necessarily the case.
@johnvboy I liked the original service for its price and what was offered. I don't think the new service offers enough to justify the price hike, especially when I don't care about the Sega Genesis games and I would speculate(although I can't confirm) that most people don't care either and would prefer GB/GBC/GBA games added to it. It is a Nintendo console after all.
I was actually looking forward to this until the price announcement, so I can say that at least when it comes to my opinion on the service you are objectively wrong.
@Dethmunk
You didn't have any problems which means the other 90 million people that bought a Switch shouldn't have any problems. Good thing your experience is the only one that counts, right?
Are you effing kidding me? I know it wasn't Game Freak that developed this game, but it's exactly how they behave. Unlimited TMs gave enormous variety and potential combinations with your Pokémon.
The Pokémon franchise will never evolve as long as Game Freak has control over it, they only know how to make simple games from 20 years in the past. Give it to a better developer like Namco.
I love this policy that Square Enix has introduced of taking demo feedback into consideration. Bravely Default II was improved by doing this and as we can see so will Project Triangle be improved by it.
The Switch's success is making Nintendo lazier and lazier. Apparently they need to fail again like with the Wii U to again start doing something more intelligent.
If it's released in a completely broken state like Deadly Premonition 2 it's a hard pass. The first game had it's issues but it pulled through because of its charm, the second one was just bad.
I'm one of the few people that actually prefer the way the game looks right now, apparently.
Before it looked kinda boring and drab, now it looks bright like the Pokémon world should be.
@BloodNinja I read your comments and I always have a good laugh, but recently I've noticed that you and others have been censored a lot more frequently.
Nintendo had ridiculously high profits last quarter, of course it was going to dip, especially after the lockdown was over in some countries. And the "disappointment" of the lack of release of a Switch pro probably helped, even though time and time again Nintendo said they weren't going to release it, so disappointment generated from lack of confirmation on false rumors, amazing.
I gotta be honest, without the motion controls I had a blast playing the game. I still don't think it's one of the best Zelda games, but a lot better than my first impression on the Wii.
Yes, because Metacritic is the end-all definition of what's best and worst.
Not criticizing the author of the article because she states at the beginning that not everyone trusts metacritic, but the amount of people that take it seriously shows that they want an arbitrary number to decide what is considered good and that is very sad.
@HeadPirate Well, let me change what I said to something more specific then. The focused space is an issue because of how frequent you traverse through it. That to me is repetitive and a negative. I completely agree with you that a game doesn't need to be longer to be better, and my problem with this game is not the scope, but exactly how long it takes to move forward in the story. I actually thinks this game is too long for what it wants to do.
On a sidenote, no need for the uppercase, chill out.
Push Square's review seems more balanced. This one glossed over a lot of the weak points of the game which to be honest were noticeable in the demo, like the repetitive combat and limited world.
I had a good time with Nexomon Extinction but to me releasing the original doesn't make any sense. The sequel does everything the original did, but better.
@AlienigenX I think it's because it's Castlevania and people enjoy the IP. I love the games, but I found the animation to be average and the story weak.

@raygboyd333 The difference is that you're offered monthly 2 or 3 reasonably recent games. Not games from 20 to 30 years ago.
