Love the fire starter. Can't wait for it to be ruined by its inevitably fuck aweful final evolution.

Pokémon Sword and Shield announced. Coming Late 2019
- Thread starter Xavi
- Start date
Because it's "archaic" as in "not part of my AAA games", even though it's good in Pokémon's game design, makes everything faster and can be easily be avoided with repel.
"See these mountains.... anything you see in the world, you can't really go there. Also fuck you" - Game Freak
Pretty much. It's still the very same straight line this time with a little bit more eyecandy on the side.
The only actual innovation you have there are the roaming pokemon
I didnt pick up and run with the narrative, I called bullshit right at first. I'm sorry for those who were duped, tho.
It wasn't just me that didn't see much of a change compared to Pokemon' Go Evee.
Like the area/map is the thing that seems to have the most character to it. Colors are less muted than Evee.
Does feel really safe for a mainline pokemon game.
Honestly I feel the should have gone with something akin to Monster Hunter stories setup in terms of world stuff/and encounters.
Sigh, random battles are back. The one perfect step forward with Let's Go is gone then. Not too surprised, just sad.
Everything else looks great so far. Maybe they could just include random battles as an option instead?

Last pokemon I played was X, and I didn't finished because I found it too easy and the story was 'meh'
Are the new generations better than X? Or maybe these games aren't for me anymore, I guess?

The logos are bland, the starters I don't really care about, looking more forward to whether the final evolutions suck or not.
The map looks really good.
Artstyle is so/so but it could have been worse.

Seems like there's a gym in the trailer though?
No, you get out of your bubble. Not everyone wants the overworld nonsense because it's a severe limitation on how difficult the game can be, and lord knows Pokémon doesn't need to be any easier.
Then you bring more and different artists.
What is even this argument. Stop justifying Gamefreak.
Wow
If only there was some way... to split the difference
The lack of imagination in Pokemon fans absolutely astounds me
Looks pretty good. Not sure how I feel about random encounters returning, I really liked being able to see Pokemon walking around in Let's Go.
Also water starter for sure. So much better then the other two.
The one thing I'd like Pokemon to introduce would be a difficulty mode. I'd like a mode where Pokemon levels were capped in battle until you beat a gym (eg your Pokemon would stay at lv 10 when battling until you beat the first gym). I think that'd introduce some strategy during the main campaign (rather than just being able to raise your pokemon 5 levels higher than the gym leader's).

Incredibly disappointed about random battles and even more disappointed no following Pokémon. One step forward, two back etc
GameFreak and Nintendo never do chase players, which get older, and instead always go for the next generation of kids. That's why, the series stays successful and older fans complain about them, not following there change in taste ... until they remake there nostalgic generation.
Hahaha. That movie was just amazing.I have an exclusive first look at Scorbunny's final form.
Yeah you just ensure people will be picking this pokemon up. :)
It was the most accepted change in the community lol
Almost all JRPG's have world encounters in 2019
Pokémon is fucking back people. Oh my god, we are going to fucking adventure through Pokémon United Kingdom, with actual varied environments, with Pokémon across the series, we are going to catch them all, with my fucking soccer bunny and battle in goddamn football stadiums
Fucking A
The gameplay looks like it will be different to LGPE, thats more than enough for me.
Yeah, I have. Did you watch the trailer? This is the outside of the house in SuMo
And in Sword and Shield
The region feels like Valkyria Chronicles 4:
Start in a small countryside town with nice hills, go to a big city, then snow and then a huge capital.

The Map is incredibly small, the graphics are shit, this could run in DS, all the good innovations in Lets Go abandoned, starters are garbage...
How could Nintendo accepted this shit?

The poster said random battles, not wild battles. Wild battles should never be gone from the main series, but random encounters is such a terrible mechanic now that we've been presented with roaming Pokémon in the overworld, I don't really know why anyone would prefer random encounters over actually being able to see the Pokémon and going for the one you're interested in, plus it makes the world look more alive.
Wait, is the Reigon England or the UK aka Scotland/England. It looks more like Scotland/England to me
I swear someone posted the Sword / Shield names in here yesterday, did they really know or were they just joking?
For the logos it looks like the legendaries are gonna be very similar, I don't know how to feel about that. We'll see...
Overall, the footage we got, looks, good. But that's it, I was expecting a different feeling. I'm not complaining, just saying that, I think I prefer Let's Go textures. S/S look, too bright, I don't know what's the word, like everything is constantly under a super intense lamp. But I really loved the trainers, out of everything. They're literally the last thing I thought I was gonna like.
I just wanna see lots of new Pokémon, and I hope when they said "many" they said it for real.

Really unimpressed with the visual and camera perspectives. Thought they're finally going to bring Pokemon to a new heights, but this just feels like a new coat of painting of a late 3DS Pokemon.
