I mean, I really don’t think Scarlet and Violet was quite as uninspired or corporate as Sword and Shield. I think it was a step in the right direction in a lot of ways.

Hell, ignoring the performance issues, I’d say they’re their best games in many years. They were really really fun.

But the release schedule for the games is clearly not sustainable for Game Freak and they need to either increase the size of their dev teams, or push releases further apart
