Let's get this first part out of the way. Didn't pay to play Pokémon "ZA," nor do I care to.
Next, I'mma be real with y'all; I'm not review bombing because it's the "popular thing." I'm review bombing because I know how older fucking game titles worked in the past, with inferior hardware, and were able to put out a way better experience than this current-gen game title, alright.
Let me tell you something: if an older game title, like The Original Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask on the Nintendo 64, which was priced at $65 to $80 and worked with inferior hardware, was able to do more with its in-game world and its engagement with the story between NPCs better than anything that Game Freak has ever done with this Pokémon "ZA" title, like being able to GO into the ACTUAL BUILDINGS!!! This is certifiably abysmal, and Game Freak along with Nintendo should be absolutely ashamed of themselves.
