There are simply too many performance issues. There's a disappointing lack of polish in the details. And yet ---- I wouldn't have just spent 50+ hours with this game if I wasn't enjoying myself. The story's good, the 'Mons are fun, the music slaps & the gameplay loop is rock-solid. Probably a hot take: but clean up some of the technical drawbacks & Scarlet/Violet could genuinely stand as two of the best mainline Pokémon games to date.
