I'm going to buy the games after all I decided, both versions. Not because I am excited to play them, but because I am bored with the games I currently have.

Boredom is a powerful motivator.
You, sir, are the most polite basher of the games I have ever seen, and I commend you for it.So, after the datamine I decided I'm def not gonna get these games on release, and maybe never. I'll see what happens in the future. DLC or an enhanced version might convince me to get it in the future, but I'm not in a rush to spend 60 euros on SwSh. And it's a pity, cause there are a lot of cool and interesting new designs, and even the ones I didn't like very much are made better by the dex entries I read. The Wild Area seems very interesting, the Campsite feature seems fun, and although I didn't see myself using D-Max much, I do think it would be fun to play around with.
But all the negative developments are just adding up and the positive aspects just don't counterbalance it for me. That said, I hope people who will get the game will enjoy it plenty

makes them look very rushed
This is exactly what I was thinking earlier. I also skipped XY at first, only getting it after ORAS.Seeing your and Dieter's comments makes me wonder if SwSh will parallel X and Y in a way with good ideas, but rushed execution. It is the first major core console Pokemon game after all.
I've seen someone mention that SwSh apparently has a very closed story where they couldn't expand on it, and that there are apparently move tutors in the games as well. So maybe SwSh will not get a third version. Of course, this is all based upon flimsy evidence.This is exactly what I was thinking earlier. I also skipped XY at first, only getting it after ORAS.
XY didn't get an enhanced version though... SuMo on the other hand got TWO. So I have no clue what GF's plans might be for the future, but if they're still aiming to do yearly releases, a SwSh 2, or I dunno, Pokemon Bow Version or whatever would not be surprising
They haven't said anything about the pokemon removed returning in a future game
So you will never buy another game in the series again.The removal of half of the pokemon was the final straw for me. I tolerated for years Gamefreak just cutting features between generations instead of improving them in future games (and i'm still pissed about no Battle Frontier on ORAS), but now they are outright cutting pokemon out of the games. That to me is going too far. And this is not like the previous generations where you couldn't get every pokemon in them but there was guarantee that would you get them in a few months. They haven't said anything about the pokemon removed returning in a future game or update.
This just got worse with the logic used to justify pokemon being removed. And if they can just remove pokemon now willingly, now i have to be wary if any of the future games have all pokemon. They can just add the missing pokemon in a future game, but then in the game after they again remove pokemon again. The certainity that at least every pokemon are in the games is pretty much gone and it's terrible that is gone.
I'm not buying any main series games until they say every pokemon are in the games. I don't care if Sword and Shield are the best games in the series from a content and mechanical standpoint, those don't matter to me if the pokemon themselves are not all in the game.
And i don't say this lightly because this franchise has been one of the most important to me.
I haven't really checked out the story, so I wouldn't know about that. Also aren't the TRs the new Move Tutors?I've seen someone mention that SwSh apparently has a very closed story where they couldn't expand on it, and that there are apparently move tutors in the games as well. So maybe SwSh will not get a third version. Of course, this is all based upon flimsy evidence.
TRs? I don't know what those are.Also aren't the TRs the new Move Tutors?
Technical Recordings, one-use TMs that have most of the standard tutor moves, like the elemental fangs.TRs? I don't know what those are.

From what I've seen, they're bought in the Wild Area.Interesting. I've been hoping for a TM system with both repeat-use and single-use TMs, so I'm excited for this feature. Do know if they will they be restricted to the end-game?
