Ive almost beaten the game and have had zero issues with glithes like some of the 1 star reviews state. I dont even have a crazy new switch either. Think of Legends Arceus but with a traditional story line with the gyms and elite 4. So freaking good! Plus some extra story lines.

This game is super fun to play and it’s cool that you get to choose your journey. I like then aspect of attending classes in the game and getting to choose between following the Pokémon league route, the titan route, the team star route, or just collecting Pokémon!

I would usually rate a main series Pokemon game 5/5 but this has launched with way to many glitches. For the most part the gameplay is great and has a decent story just like any average pokemon game, online multiplayer just has poor implementation.

The game is Alright, It is fairly slow to start out but once you get set free on your "treasure hunt" you are able to do what you want and its quite.

If not for the buggy mess the game was released. I would give it five stars, but the story and characters along with the Pokémon that can be caught in the game is overall excellent.

When you don’t run into the frame rate issues then the game plays very well. Also there is clipping problems and other goofy stuff like weird camera issues, and NPC’s walking through battles. I would recommend getting on a sale.

Pokemon Scarlet & Violet are great titles regardless of what some people are saying. Its ambitious and extremely fun, and of course its an open world pokemon game, what more can you ask for. Its better than legends arceus even with a few bugs or glitches here and there. The best part about this game is how easy it is to obtain shiny Pokemon and not just one but multiple. Scarlet & Violet are great and should be experienced by all Pokemon fans, i definitely recommend it if your a fan of the series.

This game feels unfinished
There are a lot of bugs and the open world feels empty at times
That being said, if you want a pokémon game with story and interesting characters, this does a great job!

Overall, good open world game that is expansive. However, I found some glitches like when you ride a mount and go to a mountain, you will be forced into the mountain.

While the game clearly has some performance issues, like drops in frame rate and bugs, the storyline and some of the mechanics are pretty great. I recommend for long-time fans of Pokémon.

Groundbreaking Pokemon game. Massive open worlds you share with Pokemon seamlessly unfolds as you explore alone or with friends. It's one of the main reasons to own a Switch and a must have for Switch owners, especially Pokemon fans!
