It's super rough around the edges, it's not as fleshed out as it could be, and the production value still leaves a lot to be desired (the fact that they still just fade the screen to black every time a cutscene would require something more than the default set of animations they've made is laughable). Yet... it's the most I've enjoyed a Pokemon game since the series went 3D with X & Y. Not a game I thought Game Freak was even capable of making, and I hope a lot of the shakeups to the formula they've done here carry over to Gen 9.

Game Freak, please hire some 3D dungeon designers every cave or temple just being like 3 hallways is getting embarrassing
