I loved Area Zero. I liked having the characters you've met come together and make a jrpg party. The mystery surrounding the professor was nuts. Dude was dead the whole game and you were talking to their AI bot who wants to stop them from fucking the region up with time displaced Pokemon. Your buddy you've been with the whole time is partly responsible for the prof being dead.
It was the most intriguing part of the game and the presentation was alright. Loved how the final boss is dropping Master Balls from on high and looking down on you like scum. The UI gets glitchy in the last fight. It's a great time. The music was fucking great too. Area Zero has some Nier type of music. --- "This is your last dance." ... Copied to Clipboard!

Right? Just, fuckin', do more of that, and we'll have something like a solid Pokemon game.

Scarlet and Violet are great games hiding behind really mediocre ones.
The writing is the best it's been in a Pokemon game since BW1, the actual moment to moment is fun without a lot of tedium, and the soundtrack fucking owns. Unfortunately the game was optimized to play on day old Potatoes and really bogs down the experience. If you can look past the honestly egregious performance, it's the best pokemon game since BW2 --- https://i.ibb.co/2vRbyC0/Rosa-6.png "Friends don't let friends watch The Big Bang Theory" - mogar002 ...

The part where the AI professor makes it so that you can't use any of your other Pokemon and calls out their box legendary and the only thing you can do is call out your own box legendary is pure dimes

I loved the Area Zero part in general. The lore it drops is shocking for a pokeymans game and the ragtag team of very different characters is cute. But I thought it was weird that you formed a party of four to investigate a place overgrown with tera crystals or whatever, but you don't join up for a tera raid style battle with your party of four. You only ever have one partner. Like on one hand, thank goodness because tera raids are dog shit. But it's weird that they set up a four person battle so well and then never do it.

Area Zero floors you with epic music and stunning visuals. Definitely the best segment in the Switch Era of pokemon. Arven's story is also an emotional roller coaster.
Nemona could use more characterization. It's implied her parents are filthy rich and she's lonely AF, but we don't get much on that in the story. Penny was.... alright. I would care more about Starfall Street if the game ran better and the challenge was more challenging. Legends Arceus is still the best Switch title for its gameplay and characters. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: *kissu* ... Copied to Clipboard!

Scarlet and Violet are great games hiding behind really mediocre ones.This has been my experience as well. A Pokemon story that actually takes itself seriously and includes a light touch of mature themes. The open world of the game works well for the most part. I wish they had invested more into the game's graphical and performance areas because somehow even PLA looked better most of the time. --- Others don't get to dictate what's normal and what isn't.

It was very well done. Just goes to show you how much potential the Pokemon games really have even if they never fully live up to it. Ultimately, even Scarlet and Violet are pretty solid games. The dreadful performance is the most problematic aspect of them by far.

It was definitely a neat idea, but I didn't care for Arven or Penny at all, so giving them more screen time wasn't my idea of fun. And I only liked Nemona slightly better than them, at that. But it's still a noticeably better segment of the game than everything else before it.
And everything with the professor was really cool, though. Though it did remind me of Lusamine's thing in Sun/Moon and how much I kinda liked all of that more. --- Watch "Final Fantasy XV Abridged" and "Kingdom Hearts Abridged" right here! https://www.youtube.com/user/mcknett3 ...
