| - I played TWEWY not too long ago, and holy christ that game is trash. Like not even forgivable "we tried something new and it didn't work out" trash. Just straight-up, unadulterated fucking garbage. The only saving grace is there not being random battles, and thank god for that since this game has some of the worst music I've ever heard, so the less battle music I have to hear the better. Well, and the boss fights. Those were honestly really neat. The characters suck, The music sucks. The gameplay fucking SUCKS. The gimmick sucks. The plot sucks. The use of two screens sucks. Having to be a liberal trendy and convince this dumbass city to be liberal trendies so they fall into a greater plot of becoming liberal sheep at the hands of a corporate master is a cute referendum on American politics and all (I'm sure Shibuya isn't actually meant to convey this, but it's my PCA and I'm taking certain liberties because TWEWY is trash and if a political referendum is my lone form of entertainment from it than so be it), but I can read current events to know about that sort of thing. Playing a game as awful as TWEWY to do it? Puke. And the final plot twist was ungodly stupid and so easy to see coming. Just a massive vomit job by Square, and an example that they have no idea what they're doing anymore. Just writing all this makes me pissed off about the FF7 remake, because deep down I know it's going to suck. Even calling the enemies in TWEWY reapers is a disgrace. Leave the cool things to Mass Effect. On the other side, we had what I feel is the best Pokemon generation, and I know I'm not alone on that one. RBY is great and nostalgic and got me hyped for more. GSC lived up to that hype and filled the perfect sweet spot for the series. 251 is the perfect number of Pokemon to catch -- a lot, but nothing obnoxious like we have now. On top of that, it offered a lot more balance and fixed a lot of glitches. Psychics were finally killable! I'm hardly some Pokemon expert, but maybe someone like TRE or Chris will see this topic and be able to give a better explanation for why GSC is the best Pokemon game. Regardless, this poll was justice. TWEWY, you can eat your tripling and get the hell out of my contest. And yes for those new to this, I often rant about games themselves in these early blowout matches
