Why it was actually downright gobsmacking that important cutscenes were replaced with still images.
I assume you're talking about Leon and Rose's discussion at Rose Tower here? If so, then for what it's worth, my gut impression has always been that this was an artistic choice (and one I actually like, as I feel like it adds a little more pensiveness to the moment). At it's core, it's just them talking, so it's not even something that would strictly have to be a distinct pre-rendered cutscene; they could accomplish it within the engine pretty easily.
Yeah I agree with you about the money problem. The games are way too expensive now, imo. 60 for the base game and 30 for the DLC means 90 euros.The strategy wasn't too honorable though. GF is expected (the fans are very demanding to be fair) to put out the big good games. But if the DLC fixes it, the game should have been $40 and DLC $30 or something. Then again I do things that nintendo hates so who am I to care about honorable
This basically for me. What some people felt for XY at release is what i feel for Sword and Shield. It feels extremely rushed, obviously due to how they crank out a game each year, to the point it feels they had to cut a lot of corners for a deadline (i refuse to believe Gamefreak would have allowed so many of the graphics hiccups, odd cutscenes animations, and how barebones the Wild Areas are if this game wasn't rushed).5/10 I don’t know how I feel about, honestly. It’s just…poorly made, and should have been given another year of development, at least.
Despite some issues I quite enjoyed XY as well. Huge Pokédex and I like the Battle Chateau's little "nobility rank up" side feature.Hm. I feel like I'm the only one that likes XY. Maybe because I grew up with the anime, as well as BW.
I guess that's my whole point: SwSh is not less polished than previous Pokemon games. It's just that some people have higher expectations now, because it is on a home console now (I respect that, though I personally disagree).Maybe you can get away with these things in a handheld game, but especially for a console game it's not wrong to expect a more polished game. It's nice that the DLC fixed a number of things, but that's not what DLC should be for in the first place (in my opinion).
I do not get how it is rushed. Term is used a lot.This basically for me. What some people felt for XY at release is what i feel for Sword and Shield.

The DLC might have made the overall game worth more, but it didn't fixed any of the issues with the base game.
