TG: “I am astounded by how often Pokemon fans settle for mediocrity. Scarlet & Violet arrived on Nintendo Switch months ago and both still look and run like absolute piss. Game Freak rarely communicates when it comes to addressing player concerns and performance updates that other games would be burned at the stake for failing to deliver. Imagine if God of War Ragnarok or Elden Ring launched with bland textures and a frame rate known to frequently dip into the single digits. These games aren’t particularly compelling in terms of Pokemon when you take away the technical shortcomings, but with them, it’s unacceptable.”
