Pokemon Scarlet and Violet should have not come out this year because we already got legends Arceus this year early 2022. But oh my god I loved this game I haven't enjoyed a Pokemon game like this since Black 2 and White 2 because it threw in a lot of curveballs for me. The games performance is still inexcusable but I didn't run into any glitches compared to most people I seen on the Internet but this needs to be addressed to other people playing the game to. I also got to say the final stretch to the end of the game was something I wasn't expecting. I suggest going in this game blind but I still suggest to cautiously approach this game or wait for another patch update because the games performance can be a laggy. I also love the new Pokemon and I'm glad we got over 100 new species again the last generation that had over 100 new Pokemon was Black and White which was over a decade ago. The open world design of the game felt kinda inconsistent with it's challenge sometimes it can be difficult while other times it's mindlessly easy I hope in the next game they can add a level scaling but I didn't stop me from exploring the Paldea region and the tera battles are a lot of fun. All in all Pokemon Scarlet and Violet game design wise is a massive improvement over Sword and Shield but performance wise it should have not come out for the holidays and more time needed to be cooked in the oven because this was such an ambitious pull from Game Freak. After this game I hope this is a wake up call to finally stop releasing these Pokemon games yearly it was okay during the handheld days but now we are on modern hardware with the Nintendo switch there needs to be more of a year gap with Pokemon games now
