Pokemon Legends: Arceus Is Skyrim but with Pocket Monsters

Finally our cries have been heard and will a truly open world, action RPG adventure game early 2022. The announcement trailer dropped earlier this morning and while, graphically speaking, it looks unimpressive, I'm confident they'll deliver a good time. A good, different time. And you know it's gonna be different from the usual games because of the Avatar-ish logo.

I mean, think about it, why else would The Pokémon Company and the Dog with Eggs Company, the groups responsible for minimal innovation across a butt-load of Pokémon games, actually attempt to improve on their formula now? Well, you know why, it's because Sword and Shield upset a lot of fans for a lack of innovating. Therefore, this Legends is a concerted effort to meet fans' demands for a truly open world Pokémon RPG, as fans caught on to their half-assing and dumbass lies. That won't fly anymore, especially in our Covid-19, stuck-at-home-angsty-on-the-internet world. So they have to bring their A-game or else face a even bigger backlash.

Anyway, what's got me most excited from the trailer besides Legends's open world, is the old-timey times setting that include wooden Pokeballs, hints to an actually compelling story, and of course you don't have to battle a ton of wild Pokémon just to level up your own Pokes. I've always found that mechanic to grindy and whatever the opposite of immersive is. But if you do like that kinda stuff, there's the Diamond and Pearl remakes that are coming later this year in 2021. Here's that trailer.

For fans wanting something fresh and new, though, I'm betting we're gonna have a hell of a good time next year. Here's hoping we all survive until then. :D
