Honestly had high hopes for this game. Some of the new pokemon look really great, and the auto fight feature is nice. I like the idea of open world and can see they took some features from legends arceus which is great. Exploration is nice and you can find lots of TMs and items from just roaming around. Tera raids are much faster then the dens in Sword and Shield which is really nice. And now for the bad. The animations are choppy, creatures nearby sometimes move at what seems like 5 fps. The gym challenges are just plain boring, some of them I can see they tried using the open world to its full potential, but still not great at all. Some pokemon in the wild are so small I can barley see them, which is very annoying if every 3 seconds I get into a battle with a pokemon I couldn't see. Some of the cutscenes are really long and boring, and there is no way to skip them. The interview before the elite 4 requires you to remember the names and type of gym leaders, which of course took me 6 tries since none of them are memorable. The open world is mostly empty, or at least if feels that way.
