the nintendo direct opened on a four minute segment about the pokemon scarlet and violet dlc but players have come away absolutely none the wiser about what to expectfor those of you doing the maths at home thats almost 10 of the entire showcase given over to a trailer that doesnt really tell you anything about the new expansions eagleeyed viewers spotted a few pokemon now making their way to the game after failing to make the cut in the base game shoutout to flygon beyond that we got the setting of each part of the expansion one part will take place at some kind of rural festival while another will be set at a futuristic oceanic academybeyond that there was nothing not even a voiceover to explain anything about these expansions over on reddit players have started to speculate about the potential for some kind of battle academy from the second part but theres a definite sense of frustration that were having to piece together clues rather than being given any concrete informationadd the games ongoing performance issues to that trailer and theres a recipe for some serious disappointment as one comment noted this trailer is three and a half minutes long and we have literally no more substantial information than we did before and theres clearly still issues with frame ratewhy even show itanother commenter suggested the lack of content suggested game freak really didnt have much to show while others say that the base games issues were enough to sour them on the dlc ahead of time despite a lifetime of pokemon games i bounced off violet pretty hard and i cant say theres anything in this trailer that suggests that id want to give it another go and if those performance issues are still hanging around i predict gen 9 will go down as one of pokemons deepest low pointsnow detective pikachu 2 theres a pokemon game i can get behind
