its okay that there aren't better gay options in this one because i can make the cuntiest looking hero ever with all the customization options. downside is that the game is a mixed bag, with lots of great ideas and terrible executions.
upside is that i get to become the king/anti-landlord and set everyone's rent to 0 while I bake pies for the rest of my life in order to pay for everyone's living costs~

marked improvement over the predecessor, and fun story line. i wish game freak would pick this game series up again because right now, the nintendo switch era is full of stinkers
*as in they're unpolished and unfun. Obviously i know economically they're doing fantastic so they have no reason to change course now

I love pokemon. I love open world. This game has solid ideas and can definitely be fun, but like almost every pokemon game on the nintendo switch, this feels rushed and unpolished.
its clearly trying to be breath of the wild, without breath of the wild's development time and vision. and for that it ends up being so rough around the edges, that it honestly hurts to think about. I played the hell out of it in the early months after its release, but eventually stopped when i realized....its honestly not as fun as I'd have liked it to be. take it or leave it.
I can't even recommend this to hardcore pokemon fans. watch gameplay videos, think hard about if you wanna play it, and even then, maybe just borrow it from a friend first?

a worthy sequel to an incredible game. everything has been improved gameplay wise. customization options are great since I hate how cover art Cal looks like he'd call me a slur and run a podcast about the death of free speech.
this game let's me traipse my little magical gay space twink all throughout the galaxy, filled to the brim with kuntenserven. hence why I really wanted the deluxe edition, in order to have the yavin ceremony luke skin.
Side note: don't bother getting the deluxe edition if you're not into getting those cosmetics. there are plenty of free cosmetics in-game that will more than tickle your fancy. I just adore luke's outfit and can't pass it up.
the worlds definitely feel alive and well crafted, and the combat is even more fun than the last iteration. While the game allowed you to adopt 2 combat styles and tons of different ways to level up, I quickly adopted and favored the gunslinger stance. the frequent stabbing and lunging motions help you close the distance, and for enemies out of reach, a simple button tap either dispatches them or interrupts (most) of their attack wind ups.
the sheer amount of NPCs and force echoes are great to sift through if you're like me and really want to explore and get immersed. not to mention, the era clashes going on here between re-activated clone wars droids, the empire, and a pickled fundamentalist twink brought back to life, there is so much going on.
I did however, take off a half point because the story is a just little messy compared to the very tight and focused predecessor. I won't go into details, but essentially, I think the final fight suffers from power creep. A boss fight prior to this final one, feels like it should have been the end of the game. It makes the challenge of the final fight feel undeserved. Like, why is my opponent that powerful? not just from a gameplay point, but a narrative standpoint. it feels a little forced in more than one way, but everything after that fight felt like a nice bookend to a middle chapter in Cal Kestis's life. I really hope there is a sequel to turn this into a trilogy.

this was solid fun back in the day as a kid, but I'm sure its aged badly. story is decent and i enjoyed the multiplayer with my neighbors, but i doubt i'd ever go back to this. that said, I loved the republic gunship sections and few games since have managed to capture that specific feeling of commanding one
