"I'm watching a streamer play the game and I honestly have to admit...this looks worse than I could have imagined."

Even without considering Dexit or the fact that the GTS may have been removed, I've noticed the following -Cut and paste from Sun and Moon for so many things. Sound effects, opposing trainer models, etc. The "upscaled Sun/Moon graphics" argument is definitely looking accurate.Outside of the Wild Area, the routes are the same narrow corridor routes we've seen in Sun/Moon and X/Y. No variation, no choice, just a hallway that you walk down.Animations for all older Pokemon look and sound IDENTICAL to previous generations.Automatic XP share is insane. The streamer is using nothing but their starter and yet the whole team is almost level 20 after a few hours of play. The streamer's team significantly outlevels every single trainer they face, including named antagonists. The games look about as easy as they ever have.Edit -We apparently have gating when it comes to catching Pokemon. You need gym badges to catch Pokemon of a certain level. So if a shiny spawns and it's only a few levels higher than your team, but you don't have the required badge, there's nothing you can do to catch it.The backgrounds for the gym battles are...missing. They're just colorful void spaces. Here's a comparison of gym battle backgrounds between Sword/Shield and Let's Go.The backgrounds also aren't accurate based on where you are located. This video shows fishing for a Pokemon on the docks, yet the battle background is a COMPLETELY different area from where you are. The battle suddenly takes place in a wide open field. This is incredibly jarring and laughably inexcusable.Opposing trainers randomly disappearing in the middle of a battle.We're all talking about Dexit, and rightfully so, but these games are going to release and people are really going to realize these are 3DS games using the same assets that have been used for years.I have to admit I'm supremely disappointed by what I'm seeing. via /r/pokemon https://ift.tt/36QZFHs
