Reviewers have never been particularly soft on Pokemon games, even if they don't especially care about the features cut there does seem to be a lot of disappointment in the wider audience with the lack of invention, limited open world space and below par graphics for a HD title along with the increased price. It'd surprise me if it was scoring close to the 3DS games.I don't expect it to bomb or review poorly, and I don't want it to do those things because I have a vendetta against the game. I want Game Freak to walk back and look at a lot of design decisions and change them for the better, which also would require stopping a yearly release cycle. None of those things will happen without backlash.
