Tried the Mystery Dungeon demo and it's Mystery Dungeon alright, gameplay is good and repetitive as expected. Unfortunately it does indeed look like only Pokemon up to Gen 3 are in this game. The mechanics have otherwise been updated to even include Fairy-type so being a strictly faithful remake is not an excuse here. Still the game should be fun otherwise so it'll be on my list of games to check out when on sale. At the very least it's made me wanna go back and finish Explorer's of Sky.

I don't understand the complaints really! Far better than having third version! Great dlc, great addition! Cant wait!!

Do you genuinely not understand or is it that you don't want or care to understand? I'll assume the former of course, but it has been the latter more often than not when I hear people say this.

As pointed out, whether this is better than traditional third versions is relative based on whether or not you buy the initial versions. However, even if it was universally superior, that doesn't mean anything when it still sucks.

The main issue is that unlike previous Pokemon games that were at least up to standard, Sw/Sh is severely lacking in every regard. It's scummy to have your players pay additional cost to fix the game, especially so for content that used to be part of the base game. Meanwhile, Wargoove and Slay the Spire are about to release free updates for literally no reason other than because they're awesome.
