I'm 35 and I've been playing the first games when I was a kid. Some friends were into Switch and over time I wanted to make myself a little gift and got the Nintendo Switch Oled and this game.
To be honest, I've been out for like 15 years. So maybe I shouldn't even complain. First I was super disappointed that there are no voices at all in this game. In 2022 I would've expected that the characters and creatures have real voices. And this is joined by average graphics and annoyingly silly and repetitive music. Honestly the music reminds me of music from adult flash games. If you know you know. The trumpets and instruments sound like farrting elephants.
And since there are no voices of characters we have to read a whole lot. I mean I get it. It has that old feeling and maybe also trying to make the kids read and use their imagination, but to me that was a bummer.
Think back of the first three iconic Pokémons you got to choose from in the first games. And now you get some random looking ones. Honestly. As if someone had like a randomize button to design them.
If I had a wish or two it would be that they make a new version of the original games. In 3D. With all the original characters. Imagine running through them spooky houses in a version for the switch.
And make a new one that is a little darker. I read another version that mentioned that. We grew up. Make kiddy versions and make something for us. Nostalgia and new stuff. Will ya ?
