Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu / Eevee Review Thread
- Thread starter Galava
- Start date
I was wrong, it's only friends. Let me find the post and edit it.
I was wrong with my original post, it's no online w/ randoms. Sorry!
It's a regular score for a Pokemon game. The series has historically landed in the 80s.
The review said that Eevee's special moves are better than Pikachu's.
The forcing of single joy con and motion controls for docked mode is horrible horrible design.
Terrible for accessibility ...

Here, here. Not buying the game, but supporting such sentiment
The newest trailer from the Nintendo Switch News Channel shows a female pikachu partnered with the male trainer. Gamexplain's review also shows a male trainer with a female eevee.
User warned: Inappropriate comment.
Unfortunately for them I sexually identify as a Charmander.
*EDIT* Uh how did this receive a warning? I was making a joke that I wanted to play as a Charmander.

I liked how you could reveal your age group and/or gender in SuMo through Festival Plaza. Not sure if they can do that here unless we get similar greet options.
Actually a little higher than I thought it'd be.
I am very close to checking this out, but I just cannot justify it between some of the stuff I've read in the datamining thread about the difficulty and the removal of Abilities/items. Hopefully I can watch someone play it and get some more impressions, but I just really don't think it would keep me engaged enough to finish it. And even then, there's the lack of anything to do when it's finished (besides those Master battles or whatever which don't sound fun at all).

But the gaming community told me this game was a cancer for months, and now people who have actually played it for a few dozen hours are saying that it's good? I just don't know who to believe.
I don't have the time to play Let's Go this year, so I'm personally not stumping for the game here, but, man, its pre-release reception was one of the worst examples of gamers' virulent reaction to change that I've seen in my many years enjoying the hobby. Glad to see the game being reviewed on its own merits.

I can see it dropping further if some reviews are waiting for online before dropping a number. The online set of options this time is depressingly lacking.
I don't think I'm interested, personally, but I'm happy for folks who are; the game sounds pretty good overall and I hope y'all have a grand time with it. <3
Uh huh, I'm sure it will drop down to what you said in this post...yup.
Lol the desperation for this game to do bad is both hilarious and sickening.
Ouch.
I mean I'm not surprised considering who it is but still.
Ouch.
It's not about ethics it's about popular things being considered better than they are because they're popular. It happens in all media.
The pokemon franchise in a vacuum seem like they're new and exciting each time, but in the context of all games they are more often than not painfully linear with the bland surface level narratives to boot. Change the branding and I cannot envision a scenario that these games are doing as well as they have been for the last few years.
I'm not even saying it's wrong to do these things. Just that it's disappointing that it seems to me that there are games that get a free pass for bad game design based on pedigree.
The great thing for those who didn't want this know gen 8 will get another year of development.
Thanks. My buddy is getting Eevee so I think I'll just get Pikachu for easy trading. Aslo, Shoulder > Head. :p
Team Pikachu
Pikachu sucks. Unless eevee appears in that live action and looks like a nightmare, then eevee sucks too.
I knew it...as soon the internet started to tell me this game is awful and no one should buy/enjoy it I knew it was going to be a good game.
I can't wait til Friday to start playing this...what's even better is I never played pokemon yellow, so it kinda is a new game for me....

Looks like Game Freak shouting "THIS GAME ISNT FOR YOU, CORE GAME 2019" from the rooftops is working.
