I still stand by my criticisms with Sly 2, The Bosses are not that good aside from Jean Bison, The game feels tiring at the end with not enough Variety in the missions, the fact you have to go back manually to the Hideout to switch characters instead of just going back there instantly, and any mission with aim controls makes me go crazy, As well as the tank minigame being very finiky. But damn it's a really good game. I love the story even more on the second go around, All the characters feel great to control, the fact the things you do builds up to this epic conclusion to each chapter is fantastic, and the villains aside form Neyla are either smart or mincing. I still prefer Sly 3 at the moment, but maybe that will change on a second playthrough.
I think the technical side of Legends Arceus is one of the worst Nintendo Switch Games. The Actual Game was really fun, Probably the second best Pokémon Story in the series, The Gameplay is really fun, the bosses were cool and difficult, my main problem is that the game can feel repetitive, and I think they're should've been more Pokémon Battles to balance out the rest of the game, and some of the quest like Hide and Seek with Sabi was kind of boring. But overall I had fun. Pokémon still isn't out of the woods yet IMO, but this was a nice surprise. Easily my surprise game of 2022.

I LOVE THIS GAME WAY TOO MUCH, I am obsessed with this world, and I was left with so many questions during the game. I love the main cast alot, Riku is best boi don't at me. The end of chapter 5 broke me so hard, actually this game is on the list of games to ever make me cry. Also all the callbacks to Xenoblade 1 and 2 like seeing a statue of Shulk in Chapter 6 and the Monado and picture of the cast of Xenoblade 2 in the final cutscene made me cry and dance so hard. I am obsessed with this game and is my favorite game os the year so far.
Overall I still stand by my criticism of needing a more zoomed out camera and a better menu for a skill list, But I had a good time with this. I only played this in the MGS franchise, So I knew little about Raiden. The story was compelling and stupid, the combat was fun, the skill ceiling was a little to high, the bosses were creative and fun. I’d say my favorite is the final fight with Sam and while I’m not the biggest fan of the OST it still has its bangers Overall 8/10.
