If you agree with a review that ignores all the issues in a game and gives a high score because the person playing it had fun, you also have to agree with someone that played the game and had no fun because of the issues present.
For me this game is a 5 or 6 at best. Some good new ideas mixed with the same old formula but lacking in content and polishing.
And that's how things will probably end up in metacritic. Some people who don't give a damn to anything besides their 15 hours campaign giving it a 10 and people despised with the content cuts and new price giving it a 0.
People need to stop reviewing these games as "Pokémon games" and scrutinize them in equal footing with other Switch releases.
They now have the same 60$ tag, they run on the same platform and have more resources than most developers and publishers out there so there's no reason to settle for mediocrity.
If you tell me the Wild Area looks impressive when we have Xenoblade and Breath of The Wild running in the same console I have to say you are equivocated. If you tell me the battles look amazing I also have to differ due to how often poor animations and backgrounds break the immersion.
The lack of polish is apparent for me and I truly believe these games would get rasher reviews if it wasn't for the "it's a Pokémon game" mentality.
I was expecting something that would justify a nearly 60% reduction in content for a 50% increase in price, but unfortunately the end result end up being far from that.

Re: Mighty No. 9's Release Date Remains A Mighty Mystery
No need to care about this when I can play 20XX on PC. Now Bloodstained is something worth following, I hope we can have a happy ending for that one.
