People are even saying it's not all that bad for Game Freak to lie because other companies like Activision/Blizzard and Bethesda lie more.

The amount of hugboxing happening on Twitter when it comes to defend this game is sickening. There is no blue checkmark who isn't sucking the dick of GF.

I really hope this is a big kick in the teeth for Nintendo to right their ship.

It's a Big Ask to have them give their western branch counterpart autonomy like they had from NES to N64, but pokemon exploding and not doing well in America could be the one thing that shakes shit up.

Ideally Nintendo should have more western development teams like they had in the past because as of current they only have some doing mobile game work and not actual console games.

We've actually seen this before with many titles, most recently Fallout 76. The absolute meltdown after people place this trash is going to be a worse trash-fire than you can possibly imagine. If you want a preview watch DSP shilling Shadow of War calling reviewers liars and drama-queens. Then rage quit it and went into an insane diatribe how bad the game was. I imagine this will happen x1000000. It will be glorious.

I'm going to get hit with several mad at the internets, but I don't fucking care. Nintendo fans have to be the faggiest gaming community on the planet that rivals anything from Blizzard, Bethesda, and any other gaming company under the great blood red sun. These are the same fucks that freaked out because a skeleton from a children's game got shoved into another kids game and reenacted the falling of the Berlin Wall.

 
I don't know which more is sad the fact that people would excuse a company lying to their faces and go but but Gamefreak good you guys are sheeple or people would be fine with companies being scummy just because others do it. Then again there are people out there who still play fallout 76 no matter what happens to that game.
Sadly, this is the result of "blind" / "Dumb consumerism"... People selling their souls because peer pressure, and lack of conviction. It's funny too, at least I've had some people I know who will buy it still calling out GF/etc. Better than nothing. Too many weak willed people.

> I am going to buy a below-average entry on a popular game series, not because i might still enjoy it, but because i want to make the haters angry

I think not even the Sonic fandom is this retarded

to be fair, it makes up the CHU in Sonichu

the main problem is with the people in a fanbase is the ones that go to public events. why anyone would go to a nintendo store to watch a video they could at home is dumb as hell

I agree because most Pokemon fans would hate to know they're not currently playing the latest Pokemon games with their friends and missing the events. If they dropped out, they'd feel like they're spitting in the face of Game Freak but you don't have to purchase a game you don't like just because of the franchise.

You speak to me on a deep spiritual level, in a past life we were probably brothers.
 
It's legitimately disturbing how these idiots have effectively been programmed into robots who consume a product no matter its price and quality and will blindly, violently lash out at any who dares so much as disagree with them, let alone point out (very obvious) flaws. This post really says it all.

That said I don't believe it will last forever if GF keeps it up with this degrading quality. Fans were already getting increasingly disgruntled ever since the ORAS Battle Frontier snub, and this was the final straw. That number will grow when the game is finally out for all and the "You haven't played it!" argument finally dies and there's nothing for them to shield (heh) themselves against the facts anymore. And that number will grow yet further once it becomes clear just what exactly Pokemon Home Prison is for.

In short, as many have said already, The Last Jedi syndrome cometh.

What a dumpster fire. That being said, if I'd had a better week I would stay strong but my resolve is cracking. I've been bored out of my skull for the past week, and chances are I'm going to buy it like the giant hypocrite I am... then be bored with it because its pokemon.

Oh well, I guess. The moment of truth is upon us.

Could always try some rom hacks instead. Lot's of goodies out there.

I could recommend you a RomHack of Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness with gen 7 mons in it if you'd like. I'd advise waiting to pick up a pre-owned copy if you can fam.
