    Despite all the performance issues and barren open world, the game is still pretty fun. If the DLC is as good as Crown Tundra was in Sw/Sh then I’ll end up getting it but I don’t do pre-orders.

      I was quite annoyed because it was so fun, but the performance and style was just so bad.

      I was having a decent time, but thinking how good it couldve been… Yeah that annoys me.

    I’m getting the feeling that they realized that salvaging the performance would require a complete redesign of the game, and just gave up.

    The performance patch is not coming. They’re just going to push out these dlcs and focus on the upcoming games.

      Admitadly, the footage they showed looks far smoother than the games do. It could just be then cherry picking footage, and I’m expecting nothing from GF, but we’ll have to see.

        We’ll see, but I don’t think there’s any indication at all that the footage is representative of the game.

    Definitely won’t be buying these after the total disaster the base game was. hopefully the next game is a lot more polished. Absolutely no more pre-orders from me though.

      The performance of the base game was a hot mess. But I did personally still have fun. It’s certainly a pretty flawed game even looking past the performance issues. There’s almost no level scaling, despite it being an open world game where level matters massively. And it once again makes it far too easy to be overleveled even if you follow the absolute mess of the “leveled order” (ie, ordering content from lowest to highest level). But that said, the story and exploration was fun. Paradox pokemon were great.
