#haven’t felt this way abt a game since botw

[watermelinoe]

S/S was so lacking. I thought the big empty field you kept retuning to was incredibly boring tbh. It just made the world so very small. I also wasn't that fond of the new gym styles and with dragon being my fav type and s/s having no cool new ones and the actual nice ones once again put at the very end of the game it was just disappointing. I still haven’t actually finished it nor do I want to and with the basegame being what it was I don’t feel like spending money on dlc. 1/4

same! it seemed cool at first but there just wasn’t much of anything to do and honestly not that many pokemon to catch :/ and yeah i’m not exactly a big sports fan, it seems like... kind of weird, is there a big overlap b/w football/soccer fans and pokemon fans? just a strange choice. i think i got towards the end of the game and kind of stopped. i really can’t see myself spending money on the dlc

Links lack of expression during cutscenes I just put down to actual brain damage/amnesia, it made sense to me at the time. He does show emotion at other points in time and to step into a world after a 100 year nap must be hard. But LoZ can get away with a lot in my eyes. I don’t think we ever looked at the trailer for WW or anything. It was more like, oh new official LoZ game, of course we’re gonna buy it. Which is admittedly still do with all things LoZ. 2/4

that makes sense, i just loved how expressive he was in past games and i feel like he should’ve at least reacted to the champions, esp mipha, and zelda at the end of the game... felt like he was more excited abt his own cooking than reuniting with her lmao. but yeah i’m inherently biased in favor of loz games. i think people were upset bc they had this tech demo with a more realistic link, and then the actual game ended up being this cartoon-like style. i’m glad people warmed up to it.

There’s a lot of fun switch games, hopefully she’ll find something that suits her. I admire your restraint tbh. Even with LoZ I’ve spent plenty of time swearing at the tv, most recently involving all things lynel and/or guardian and pls link would you runnn. Or basically any 'high stakes' moment in game. All Nintendos games are aimed at new players I feel, which makes sense in a money way but it's downright rude to loyal fans and rather disappointing 3/4

yeah i think she’ll branch out! :) i know i get too worked up abt stuff sometimes so i try to... avoid doing that. i definitely swore during those stealth missions in botw, especially that stupid little korok.... i was like ok buddy you’re lucky you’re cute or i would make you into a salad >:( and yeah i don’t mind that they switch up the formula in their games, but at some point it’s like you’re not even making a paper mario game at this point. and the whole arts and crafts gimmick has already been a thing since kirby’s epic yarn... i see the new paper mario and i’m like hmm. i could be playing yoshi’s crafted world lmao

I really hope that the article I messaged you about earlier is a leak and that we’ll get SS around the next big holiday. Or better yet, next week or so. Glad to hear (read?) you’re doing okay! I’ll keep my fingers crossed that everythings good at your check-up. The heatwave is finally dissipating here so I'm starting to return back to my functional human self. - pokenon 4/4

i hope so, too!! and thank you :) my checkup went really well *and* i got dairy queen after. but now that i’ve got the all clear i should... actually start exercising. it’d be nice to go to yoga again but. well. anyway that’s great to hear! hope things stay good over there!
