| Topic | Disregarding Dexit, are Sword and Shield good? |
| MrMallard 05/09/20 3:00:45 PM #6: | They're fine enough for $40 or so, but you're not getting an experience that'll capture your whimsy like Crystal or Emerald. I think the review bombing and the really bad bitching about it is way too far, and stuff about this game like the culmination of the main story with the legendaries and the music is really good, but I think I paid too much money for it and I didn't enjoy it as completely and on as many levels as I enjoyed Emerald and Crystal back in the day. Keep in mind that in both games, I didn't even enjoy the Battle Tower/Frontier. I just enjoyed the campaigns. SwSh fell short from my favorite Pokemon games, and I honestly could have Shield alone and gone on with my life to little or no consequence. Granted, that's coming from a 24 year old talking about a game that failed to compare to childhood defining games - there's going to be inherent bias in that judgement. But that's how I felt. It was a solid enough game, but don't expect something that'll capture your attention like the game/s you grew up with. --- So you don't get to be a saint, martyrs never last this long Now Playing: Skyrim, Final Fantasy X-2 ...
