Topic	I've genuinely never seen this much bad PR for a game before (Pokemon)

When I heard people talk about it, it was the same talk that usually happened when dealing with Pokmon. Though, I think the disappointment would have been larger than Dexit. Now everybody loses everything. Sure, they still have their collection, but now they cant use any of it. Just thinking about how mad they are that they cant use everything, it seems it wouldve even worse if they couldnt use anything from before... How did you miss all the hype surrounding this image: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkv7E6DcDJ8&feature=youtu.be&t=121 Maybe you just weren't in the same parts of the internet I was in, but I saw tons of people getting hyped at the idea of a big Pokemon overhaul akin to BotW. And I was one of them. Gamefreak should have either did what was necessary to keep every pokemon, or they should have started fresh with a massive overhaul that brought Pokemon up to date with other major Nintendo IPs. As it stands, Pokemon is way behind Nintendo's other IPs (and Nintendo itself is already graphically behind the games coming out on Xbox and Playstation) with no legitimate excuse. Having to port over every pokemon would be a legitimate enough excuse. But they couldn't even be bothered to do that. And the reason is because they don't have to, not because they can't. If Pokemon games stopped selling as much, Gamefreak would be forced to match the quality of other Nintendo IPs, but the games sell well no matter what, so they are complacent. LinkPizza posted... Idk. Maybe it was because I was on FB and the BotW board. But there was a lot of people constantly complaining. I heard more complaining about that then Pokmon, tbh. I do think Pokmon got more, but I rarely hear the complaints. And they are much more spread out then BotW, too... I just don't see it. Looking on the BotW board, I don't see nearly as much negative discussion as the Sw/Sh board, especially if I go back to when BotW was first released. Sw/Sh should be in its honeymoon period right now, when people are least critical of a game. And, I mean, just look at this: https://www.metacritic.com/game/switch/pokemon-sword/user-reviews https://www.metacritic.com/game/switch/the-legend-of-zelda-breath-of-the-wild/user-reviews <cite>BanjoBoomer posted [p:930252936] in I've g...
