    Open world Pokémon game took you to so many places that were so vast and large it was almost overwhelming at times. Great concept and twist to your classic Pokémon game. If you liked Legend of Arceus you will love this.

    Having a fully open world Pokemon game is just amazing. The storylines and the characters are great as well. I just wish these games ran better and had level scaling, but it’s not enough to stop me from enjoying the game.

    The world of Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is huge and just like an open world like Pokemon Legends: Arecus. This has to be the best one yet.

    This game really brings out the joy of having an adventure in a true open world experience with amazing music and characters. Not to mention new game mechanics that spices up the play style compared to previous games.

    The reviewer did not like this game, but my nieces who I purchased it for love it. The game is open world and is easy to pick up. It's Pokemon, so if you like the series, there is a chance you will like this game too.

    Would be 5* if not for some minor graphical issues

    The game has some glaring issues graphically. Seems like the dev team didn't have enough time to polish it out. The team did a pretty great job with the Pokemon animations and fights. The camera during battle moves around a lot and there doesn't seem to be an accessibility option to turn that off. There also doesn't seem to be an option to turn off the high-pitched ping noises every time you press a menu option or progress the dialogue. I think overall this game is a wonderful pass time that is fun for kids and adults alike. It could be better polished in terms of graphics and the blinking in and out of existence NPC's.

    It is not a bad game. Its a great concept and addition to the pokemon franchise. Even if there is a lag on load time when switching pokemons during battle or minor glitches, it is still fun game to play

    My son is a Pokemon game fan and each year likes to get the newest game. This one has not disappointed. In fact he says the game play is right up there with Legends of Arceus which he feels is the best of all of them.

    Great pokemon game. Had a blast playing. Played for hours at a time. You’re able to pick different paths that you want to take to defeat the game. Some really cool interesting things added to this pokemon game.

    This is the most fun ive had in a main line pokemon game (not including Arceus). But it runs horribly and its a bit buggy. Still worth playing, the world is fun to explore, and the quests have been interesting

    Best Pokemon game in years

    The gameplay is probably the best it has been since Gen 2, catching Pokemon has never been more fun. The endgame stuff after the Elite 4 is also great, hopefully they expand more on it with DLC. Overall this is like a cross between Legends Arceus (which was great) and Sword/Shield (which IMO were a big let down). The future of this series is bright. Now hire some capable developers or delay the game next time, it does not run well at all and this is not due to the Switch.

    This is a great game and has so many new elements to this franchise. The only problem I had with it was a few graphical issues here and there but they’ll most likely get fixed later down the game’s lifespan.

    The game had unique arcs so that it wasn't your typical Pokémon game. I'd recommend getting a friend with the other version and you can trade version-specific Pokémon.
