In fact, I think third versions are much, MUCH better than the DLC Game Freak is offering us. Even if you already played the original games...

Yeah I'm gonna go ahead and stop you right there. You are wrong. Just wrong. 100%, provably, unequivocally wrong. In no way is it better except your desire to have more boxes on your shelf. 

These are Cheaper than getting new games and Have more Content than getting new games. You can still get the content even without buying the DLC, you don't HAVE to start over again if you don't want to, etc 

Tell me one way that getting a new identical game with a few tweaks and a handful of new mons for the price of a brand new game is better than paying a little over half the price of a new game and getting whole new areas, all new story content, new mons, and returning mons that they couldn't add to the base game due to time constraints? 

I know that the general consensus is that your opinion can't be wrong, but it is. If an opinion is formed off bad information or purposely misconstrued, it can be wrong. I'd love to hear what you genuinely think is 'better' about paying full price for less content vs paying considerably less for more. 

Oh no, I'm not wrong at all. I find very unlikely that the DLC will give us more than a third version. Especially after watching the Direct again. We will be lucky to get a fraction of that. Look:

https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_Platinum_Version#Changes_from_Pok.C3.A9mon_Diamond_and_Pearl

This is all the changes and all the new content of Pokémon Emerald and Pokémon Platinum. I'll be very clear: I will cut my dick off if the Sword and Shield DLC comes even close to any of those games.

With a third version I get... well, a game. With more and better content. I can play it from start to finish... and beyond, enjoying the new things and changes. With a DLC, I get to play a few hours more. And nothing else. Plus, it will most likely not get all its technical and gameplay problems fixed.

And please, I would like to ask you to be a little more tolerant. I don't think I was being rude to anyone around here to be treated like this.

Thanks.
