⠀⠀⠀⠀bit of a rant about pokemon scarlet
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀no spoilers or anything
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀just my general opinion on it
i think the game's story is really good. i liked pretty much all of the characters and the ending even made me cry a little
however, the way it runs and plays just completely breaks my heart . . .
moving around, even when using Koraidon feels slow and clunky, catching pokemon is not fun and feels like a chore again and the world just feels so empty. the wild pokemon don't react to anything you do. they either run around in circles or stand in your way, and even the ones that try to chase you around don't feel like a threat because they can't do damage directly to the player anymore
it's like GF took everything good that PLA had to offer and made it worse
i'm just . . . so baffled
i really wonder what reviewers will have to say about this game
