Pokemon
I like the game alot a big fan since day one the complain I have is that the game itself is to easy. I hate that I went thru the game really quickly and then when you compete with players around the world your strong Pokemon are super weak. You need to do alot to get them into fighting shape and it's only available until you finish the game. I also felt this game was the shortest compare to others, this one and the Let's Go Eevee are short, the great thing about this is the graphics and the interacting with other players.

Just finished today...ish
Just completed the main quest for Pokemon Shield today...after owning it for quite a while. LOL The game overall was not bad... But it was a lot less in-depth than most of the Pokemon titles that we have seen before. I understand the want for the Pokemon company to make Pokemon more "accessible" to a wider audience, but for some die-hard and long-time fans, it was seen as making the game "easier". I'm pretty easy-going, so for the most part, I liked it. If you're thinking of picking this up, know that it'll be a BREEZE to get through. Which is both really awesome (for busy people) and really not-so awesome (for people who thought this game was going to be challenging/long) I logged maybe 40-hours and that was with me taking my time. I also left it for a long time because, while the story was interesting, it wasn't incredibly involved to the point where I was vested enough to feel the NEED to complete it quickly. That said, GREAT game for people who want an intro to Pokemon. GOOD game for people who want to casually play though a Pokemon game. and KINDA ALRIGHT game for people who have played Main-title Pokemon games for a long time (I started with R/B/G)
