Hardcore Gamer: We are a little over a month away from the release of Pokémon Legends Arceus. This game takes place centuries before mainline entries in the ancient lands of Sinnoh, then known as Hisui. With that comes unique Pokémon unknown before now and one more was just revealed.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "While a few genres in 2022 were somewhat lacking, RPG was the opposite; in fact, two of our finalists show last year’s impressive spread of reputable releases. Beyond their consistency, they also impressed with their quality, and shared this special stat with the Best Puzzle Game of 2022 award: eight entries made it past the preliminary round’s eligibility threshold. All except one of them were made in Japan, and that exception is still emulating the spirit of SNES JRPGs. Finally, together they hold the highest average VGChartz review score of any shortlist we’ve done to date."
Star ocean 6. I'm toward the end and man it's a dope ass game.
I completely disagree with the article.
That reached the prelim round, but not enough for the shortlist. Other than that, this has to be 2022's strongest list going by critical acclaim.
Pokemon has been successful in 2022, but has taken steps back along with steps forward.
Despite the game having some of the best mechanics in a Pokemon game to date, it i so annoyingly broken. It really is hampering any fun I'm having while playing. The framerate is terrible. Collision detection, wall barriers and terrain are so glitchy. This game is really a 6/10 at best because of how bad it runs.
Pokémon may have hit a low point in 2022, but it's continued success proves that the series' core hooks are still unbeatable.
because fans will buy the game regardless of how it performs, they don't care about performance or bugs or whatever else, they just need their fix. In short: Pokemon continues to succeed cause addicts
