My hype and interest in this game has been a bit of a roller coaster for the last few months; I've gone from being super hyped about this game, to getting new info on it that nearly killed all that hype, back to hyped about certain things, and again to almost no hype. The main thing that currently is depressing my interest in this game is specifically how they've gutted the National Pokedex; nearly all the Legendary and Starter Pokemon from all previous generations have been removed. Given the pokemon they've selectively removed I'm 95% certain they will be made available later on as paid DLC, which marks the first time Nintendo has pulled this bullshit in Pokemon. The only thing keeping me from flat out not wanting this game is that many of the new Gen 8 Pokemon actually look really good and I'm also excited to see many of the open world improvements they've made. I think the Dynamax crap is dumb as hell, but if they're anything like Mega Evolutions or Z Moves they'll mostly be optional. At this point I'm probably going to get it, but I guess I have a week to change my mind.
