This doesn't surprise me in the slightest. Not only is IGN doing it for money from site traffic and clickbait they're also doing it to guarantee that Nintendo keeps giving them review copies of future games which, in turn, will allow them to continue making MORE money.
They know about gen 1 nostalgia, but they have the most remarkable blind spot when it comes to any gen past that. There's loads of people who didn't start with gen one, but for some reason that is all they think any fan past 12 cares about. I'm referring in particular to stuff like how they handled the battle frontier in the R/S remakes. It makes it even worse considering how well HG/SS handled it, they carried over improvements from Crystal, there was no reason to assume ORAS wouldn't carry the biggest feature from Emerald. If I held shares in the franchise, I'd be pissed they didn't utilize the nostalgia factor to its fullest.TPC clearly knew about the nostalgia factor. It's why they pushed the "original 151" so much, down to Pokemon Go launching with solely them. Normies know about the original 151, maybe the new Pokemon from Gold/Silver, and a few of the highly marketed ones or furbait from the newer generations.
Sword and Shield doesn't even have all 3 of the original starters. Many fan favorites and iconic Pokemon were cut as well. Even some of the heavily marketed Pokemon from the past who made appearances in spin-off titles or crossover titles were gone. Then there's the fact that older Pokemon and moves were cut, especially when Game Freak made sure to avoid a repeat of the issue where Pokemon from Gens 1-2 were not transferable to 3+ for years.
Cyber Sleuth also didn't have every single Digimon and it makes sense when there's around 1,300 with many being reskins/variants. But they made sure to cover the bases when it came to the most popular Digimon. Sword and Shield couldn't be bothered to do that.
You underestimate the sheer force of PokeTwitter's autism. The rage is shitting up a bunch of tweets from people who are excited.I don't believe anyone here that's shitting on Game Freak are really discouraging people from buying the game if they want to play it. At most, they just say to buy it used so that you don't have to support their decisions.
I cant fault that, I mean I bought shaq fu and superman 64 for the same reasons, but was skyrims switch port that bad?Shit I bought Skyrim on the Switch BECAUSE it was a terrible port and I had a blast fucking around with glitches.
It's like the 32X port of Doom where everything was the worst of the worst and ran at lower settings than the lowest possible setting on PC.I cant fault that, I mean I bought shaq fu and superman 64 for the same reasons, but was skyrims switch port that bad?

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.

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."Okay yeah this multibillion dollar franchise lied to get me to buy games with less content for more money but me want yellow zap mouse go in ball so me not care."
