Released this Friday, November 18, 2022, Pokémon Violet and Pokémon Scarlet seem to be a popular success. If we will have to wait a few days / weeks to find out the sales figures for the two games, Nintendo’s title is making a lot of noise. For its open world of course, but also for the number of bugs found in the game. Characters and Pokémon that atrophy or deform when they do not disappear, recurring map drops, framerate in the cabbages, textures that are not displayed, the sky disappears as if by magic, collision bugs all over the place, it is obvious that the GameFreak studio could not benefit from the quality control so dear to Nintendo. It must be said that the developers had to release two Pokémon titles in 2022, the first last February under the name Pokémon Legends Arceus and this Violet & Scarlet duo, which are in addition the first open world of the saga. A way of producing different from the hallway or scripted games that GameFreak is used to. We hope that the studio will take steps to release a patch quickly, because for the time being, the videos circulating about the games’ bugs and desk glitches are reminiscent of the dark hours of Assassin’s Creed.
Releasing 2 Pokémon (open world moreover) in one year inevitably has consequences. Pokémon Violet & Scarlet are by far the most buggy games produced by Nintendo.
