No company is perfect. The only thing bad enough to boycott here is modern Pokemon games, until those devs learn how to code properly.
Seems they learnt a fair bit by the time they did Scarlet/Violet or were there problems with those as well?
SV was the worst yet. It runs like a N64
Feels like they were going for more pokemon on screen rather than high framerates to me, but the days of hyper optimisation like we saw on the PS2/PS3 are gone for most companies.
Eh? Where's the line exactly? I'd much sooner boycott a company because they're causing genuine damage with ridiculous lawsuits, than because they make bad games.
