I don't need the new pkm game I'm not interested

*sees the character creator*

I'm..... N-not interested.......

#I've only ever played the 1 pkmn game and i did end up loving it #so I'm curious to play more in the franchise but there's a lot of reasons a yearly release schedule is bad #and me not being interested in investing only for it to be old news next year has been a key reason I didn't get more into it #i had no idea the new game was out bc i feel like a new one just came out like last week #just by pure chance I was feeling nostalgic abt my first starter and my son Hop from sword and shield lol #but u say character creator and i jump #not rly tho I'm sure the reaction to this game rn speaks to why i never buy games on release day anymore #last time i did that was like 2016 or whenever transistor came out and that's different #last triple a game i bought day of was Dishonored 2 #anyway that's neither here nor there I'm just rambling to put off stuff i should be doing #it's gonna be a long time until i have serious interest in this game #and w the way games work now i usually wait a year at least for them to actually finish it re patches and updates #bc i like to buy complete games like The Good Old Days #hmm y'know what i might have bought another release day title in the last few years #it's not something i do often bc i used to wait for a sale but game prices just don't go down anymore 😑 #the other game was Outer Worlds ironically the game about evil corporations and the unsustainable Max profit model at the cost of QOL
