Movements tend to have an impact. In this case S/S is being received well and will sell millions. There was no movement. Don't confuse a legitimate movement with a bunch of internet whiny itches.

I also love the behavior of all the S/S haters.

Step 1: Trash the game relentlessly for months on end

Step 2: Last minute predict a good Metascore that is completely out of alignment with months worth of complaining

Step 3: Buy the game, but make excuses for doing so

"Internet whiny itches" he says while whining because he can't accept that people who don't agree with him can still have valid points and criticisms.

I've been saying this game will sell and review well since Let's Go, and I didn't buy that game nor will I buy this one so r.i.p. that generalization. Your behavior is what's lovely, being so utterly irrational for the sake of defending a corporation that gives no shits about you. As I've pointed out so many times, you gain fucking nothing from defending, but you can gain a better product through criticism.

You've proven your irrationality already, but eh I'm gracing you with this serious response moreso for everyone else to read, that's my excuse. xD

My stance for this game (and any other game) is to reserve final judgement until I personally play the game.  I don't defend nor attack anything that I haven't played.  Sorry if you find that "irrational."  Can't help you there.
