It is true that Pokémon's course was good, but static in a comfort zone and, ironically, without taking a step towards evolution. Pokémon Legends: Arceus appears to be the beginning of this transformation. It's not the classic, strictly linear format being discarded anytime soon, but the possibility of playing more titles like this numbs me with indescribable hope. Arceus gets it right by exploring more than one known area, Sinnoh specifically, and not introducing a new one. Pokémon Legends: Arceus delivered this content in abstinence: daring. Even with mistakes here and there, especially with the overall visual quality of the game, whether in terms of graphics or performance, this is the best game in the franchise for many, many years.
