The new Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet and Violet<\/a> games are perhaps the most ambitious entries in the long-running series ever<\/em>, but unfortunately, it seems the game’s performance and technical issues are dragging down the overall experience for many trainers around the world.<\/p>\n

As a result, the user score on Metacritic for Pok\u00e9mon Scarlet<\/a> (the only user rated version at the time of writing) is just 2.9 out of 10 – with users on the website citing gameplay glitches (which we’ve extensively highlighted here on Nintendo Life<\/a>), frame rate issues, underwhelming graphics, textures and more.<\/p>\n

It’s created a lot<\/em> of discourse online, with pretty-much everyone<\/em> chiming in with their own personal thoughts – including some critics. Much of the conversation seems to be about Game Freak’s ability and The Pok\u00e9mon Company’s handling of the franchise:<\/p>\n
