Honestly this game should have been given the same ratings as Pokémon Sword and Shield. Not only because it looks prettier but mostly because (according to other reviewers) it has a ton of things for you to do in the post game. Plus even though the monster animations are reused from previous games, it’s still way better than Pokémon’s animations.

They stopped doing decimal scores awhile ago. Basically if they didn't want to give the game a 9, they only have the option of giving it an 8 instead of 8.9. That's why World got a 9.5 instead on a 10, by the modern system they would've gave World a 9 too.
