This Game was perfect for me

Luigi's Mansion 3 is the best looking game on the Switch. The lighting is crazy good and environments always had my jaw to the floor. This game feels super similar to a LEGO game because of its collectables and swarms of easy enemies. Although I miss the darker and dreadful feeling of the first entry, I can appreciate this new, cartoonish direction. I got through all of the game, but just barely. The beginning of the game would have you believing that you'll snake through floors out of order and sometimes bleed missions across multiple levels. Unfortunately, this isn't the case once you get a couple hours in. Near the end, I felt it was tedious and at some points had to force myself over the finish line. The puzzles are legitimately difficult and creative. This is a perfect game for couples or for a parent and child.

This was my big disappointment of the year. Starting with the positives, I LOVE the new Pokémon and the music is rock-solid throughout. And really I didn't have too much of a problem with the graphics. My biggest issue with Shield was the lack or identity. The wild areas do provide an awesome and unique experience to Pokémon, but in the end it's just a bigger safari zone that really only exists for some side fun. No exploration and no fun places to see. When you're not exploring the wild area, you're on extremely linear paths that make me want to rip my hair out. Dynamax is kind of fun, but it's often limited which makes the mechanic feel pointless. In one gym, you can't even use it. The box legendaries are extremely dull and don't feel important while the hidden legendary is confusingly complex and silly. Team Yell is annoying and can't even compare to Rocket or other organizations. The gym battles are uninteresting and all blend together to the point where I had to force myself to complete the final tournament. Throughout my playthrough, I was disappointed at how bored I was and how little I cared about the places and scenarios around me. In the end, Pokémon is about the creatures and the designs this generation were fun and - in my opinion - the best we've seen in years.

An extremely fun tech demo. It truly is worth the price considering the amount of joy I got out of my playthrough, but the lack of content felt unsatisfying near the end. However, I'm glad that this game didn't overstay its welcome.
