Legends Arceus was the closest thing to a decent pokemon game in the last decade. It felt like an alpha release, but it was still nice to actually see them switch up the formula for a change. The new pokemon legends will probably be pretty fun, I just wish they actually spent more time on their games (or allowed mod support for their games, so people could fix their rush jobs for them)

They've pretty clearly been doing that this time, which explains why this game seems a lot less rough than the SV, even if people (cough redditors) pretend it doesn't look/run any better (it very obviously does)

Game Freak doesn't set the deadlines either way, so I don't fault them for the last few games being rushed, though I'm still waiting to play SV until I have hardware that can run it half decently 😩 Game seems pretty good from what I've heard from people who can look past the technical issues

I'm still not sure if I wanna try the new Legends. The thing that attracted me to the first fame was the setting, whereas I'm not quite as interested in Kalos setting of ZA. I think I'll wait for reviews to come in and determine if the game play is worth it for me, as I quite enjoyed the first game.

I think I'll probably choose the Unova starter again, but I'd like to see what they turn into, as all of them could become my favorite with the right final evo.
