I love how stupid reviewers are sometimes.

They go and say :

START OF FAKE REVIEW:

"Its a great game but its not that much better than the original game. It is as much fun as the previous game but doesnt add enougn NEW stuff. But the little stuff they added is a welcomed addition."

I give it a 5 compared to the 9 the first game got.


ITS JUST BASIC LOGIC THAT A GAME THAT IS AS GOOD AND EVEN ADDS SOME NEW STUFF WHICH IS AWESOME TOO GETS A LOWER SCORE!!!! BASIC LOGIC!!!! IT IS !!!!

We dont have to worry that our review would trick people in thinking the second game is worse as the SCORE might suggest and which is def not the case its better than the first game! But I am used to the stuff already so I cant give this game a 9 again  it doesnt matter if its better.

.And because everyone on the planet played the first game they should feel like I did and so my lower SCORE will be accepted by all 7 billion people on the planet."

END OF FAKE REVIEW

Even if the prequel was quite literally the best game ever made my mankind, you can't just reskin the game and call it a sequel and hope to get the same high score for it. You should be getting marked down for having too much in common to the last game (even though the last game was the best game ever). Yes sequels to a franchise are meant to be similar to the previous iterations and have core mechanics/aspects in common, but simply copy pasting majority of the last game is not the answer. These kinds of practices shouldn't be promoted.

The changes that were made in BW2 should normally be released as dlc, not as a brand new game with a full price tag. The tweaks in movesets of pokemon and slight changes to the gameplay mechanics should really be free dlc, while the entire post game area and the additions of different pokemon formes should be paid expansion packs.

This obviously wasn't possible on the DS, but now that the 3DS is out with the ability to have dlc, I would be very interested to see if Nintendo continues this money-grabbing scheme or actually do what is right. In fact this goes not only to Nintendo, but to any other developer who does the same thing. Nintendo just seems to be too blatant.
