Pokemon Violet impressions. 7 hours in.

Apart from the typical stuffs to be expected from Nintendo: crap connectivity, awful textures with 720p~ docked resolution, atrocious performance with 10 FPS NPCs near you.

Game is actually fun.

I enjoyed the Tera Raid Battles so much, ended up leveled my starter to lv50 in one go, things are much more quicker compared to SnS.

I like how they give you multiple paths now, tackle gym, or find herbs, or hunt down Team Star. Feels a lot like BOTW.

don't think they deserve 76 on opencritic.

if you're on the fence, I can't recommend this enough, you'll have a good time.
