pokemon s/v vs. sw/sh, arceus
@erincandescent@queer.af @Dex Apparently they scoped most character interactions and writing to side content and postgame in this one. You have to go back to the school and take classes to get most of the early game writing, and you have to go back there again for postgame story. And it's... pretty good (and worth going back for), but missable if you're not looking for it.
The open world in the middle is pretty empty by comparison, which is weird.
