@JordanMiddler Thank you for replying to my comment. I appreciate you taking your time and talking to the community. I edited my comment with a Disclaimer for this so people know. Its still just a sour taste in my mouth that you rather release it early and have this important info missing instead of actually caring to give people a full picture. This is not your personal fault and a decision of the people you work for I am assuming, but the criticism is still valid I believe. Now your review just looks like a trailer-critique. Its not really what anyone should call a review.
@-wc- Just let me say, that if you battle every single trainer along the way, you will be at an equal level with Gym Leaders, Elite Four and Champion, but you WILL outlevel the no-name trainers along the way.
It does not seem like the NL reviewer finished the game or he would have noticed that no matter how much Underground Grinding you do, the leveling is a non-issue, as the jump from normal trainers to Gym Leaders and Elite Four as well as Champion is huge.
Also no mention of the endgame that includes you collecting ALL of Gen 1-4 + rebattling everyone again with really strong teams.
Trying to get praise from the pokemon hate club is one thing, but this was a bit much. Just because you dont like the art style of something doesnt mean you have to make the whole review about that one topic.
I do agree with platinum content missing being a bad thing, but the only thing thats missing is the battle frontier part, which he couldnt have reached anyways because again, I dont think he finished it.
Edit: The Reviewer did reply to this and noticed that he was not able to speak to other parts of the game due to the embargo.
@abbyhitter It must be have done with the day 1 patch in mind or else it would be impossible to praise the sound track as prepatch it included the DS midi sounds.
No mention of the good endgame content? How far have you played if I may ask? I agree with most, but not mentioning this is a bit of a bummer.
Being able to catch all of Gen 1 - 4 and rebattling everyone with their beefy platinum EV-trained teams, is honestly a really cool thing and a big deal that should have been mentioned. This is not really a review. It just sounds like you watched a trailer and are critiquing it for its chibi look.

Re: Round Up: The Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl Reviews Are In
@Damo So you rather bring out a review early and have it missing almost all of the information instead of actually giving people a fair picture?
I can see why, but its something that should be open for discussion.

@PBNightmare No, you have to start the battle first in order to see.

I honestly thought this was Wind Waker when I saw the first 3 seconds of the video.

@jojobar Tencent owns everything now. If you are chinaphobe, which is totally understandable, gaming might not be a desireble thing anymore.
