Overall, Pokémon UNITE is a MOBA with a lot of potential. It’s already great as a casual game with friends, but I believe with some tweaking to Zapdos and removal of the “pay for held item upgrades” option, a strong competitive MOBA lives in Pokémon UNITE. Until then, it’s hard to call it much more than an above-average entry in the crowded MOBA space.

Pokémon Unite is the first attempt at creating a MOBA with the pocket monsters – and I must admit it’s a successful one. The game is fast and intense, but also easy to get a grip on. I don’t expect it to take the esports scene by storm, but it’s very enjoyable and works great in a doctor’s waiting room or on the bus. As for me, I can’t force myself to stop playing Pokémon Unite and hope the developers will keep updating it. [10/2021, p.61]

Pokémon Unite is at its most enjoyable when dedicated players are going head to head. I was looking for a game to play but fell into an entirely new hobby unto itself. I picked up Unite for the Pokémon but ended up staying for a compelling new challenge. It gave me the opportunity (and the excuse) to apply myself and learn to play a MOBA well. And when it comes to MOBAs, that’s no simple feat.

carino ma nulla di che un titolo che se non siete fan del genere vi catturerà con molta fatica a causa di un gameplay e di un meta al quanto mediocre e risultando in generale poco appetibile al pubblico più generalista. 5.3/10

Pokémon stunlock and power creep simulator. Was pretty good when it came out but was destroyed by the developers

I don't have nothing to complain about this game, it's simply magnificent and perfect. I mean nowadays, because back in the day it was tough to get more pokémon to play, while nowadays there's a battle pass where you get more Pokémon to play the more you get levels on the Battle pass. Anyways, this game deserves a clean 8 to 10 in this forum due to the clean gameplay, absolutely addicting!

Pokémon Unite is an almost perfect game, although it can be improved if The Pokémon Company knows how to take advantage of its possibilities. In fact, the future content will determine whether it will be another success of the popular franchise.

Pokémon Unite is a fun way to spend your time despite these frustrations. The game eats away the hours of my day as I reassuringly say to myself, “Just one more match.” Battles play out with the spectacle that the Pokémon series is known for, and with so many abilities to choose from, no match feels the same as the last. The game’s simple mechanics and recognizable characters make for an approachable MOBA experience; and with a potential catalog of nearly 900 Pokémon to pick from, my hopes are high for the future of Pokémon Unite.

Pokemon unite is the best game. People says it is pay to win but that is because they don't know how the game works. Items dont give you that much of a buff. I have been f2p my entire time playing this game and I have found no issues Unite is the game I have spent the most time playing it is awesome

Pokémon Unite is a superb game and also a terrifying micropayment store. While it remains up in the air whether we will have more generous challenges and events in the future, and even a revamp of the reward system, there is no doubt that greed makes worse a MOBA for Nintendo Switch that playably is impeccable.

Pokémon Unite features simple objectives and an addictive gameplay loop. Some mechanics and certain Pokémon require balancing, but that's how it often goes with online games.

I can’t stop playing Pokemon Unite and chain-queuing games, but its foundational issues are going to drive some people away and need to be addressed.

It is difficult to recommend Pokémon Unite to 'free' players unless they're truly in it for the long haul. The gameplay is engaging, with a large roster of Pokémon that can be tried out in offline modes, but owning iconic Pokémon such as Lucario or Garchomp to play in Ranked will require an immense amount of Aoes Coins or paid-for Aeos Gems. A lot of joy is to be found in Quick Matches due to daily map rotations, but ultimately Unite is too geared toward grabbing people’s purses to win games rather than providing an even playing field for everyone. Players that don't pay will likely find frustration in constantly matching with others who have spent money; it's worth keeping that in mind before committing to Pokémon Unite.

While Pokémon Unite offers a new way for fans to enjoy Pokémon battles together, the frustrating limitations created to encourage microtransactions make gameplay less about having fun and more about completing missions for currency. While it may appeal to fans of mobile app-style games with a similar structure, those who want the ability to experience everything Pokémon Unite has to offer without spending money will need to sink a large amount of time into grinding before having the means to truly access most features. With improvements to the ability to earn currency and a better item level system tied to use in battle instead of paid upgrades, Pokémon Unite would be a more enjoyable experience for players.

Mucho pago emparejamientos competitivos a veces injustos debieron haberlo aprovechado mejor, tenía potencial.

Die Menüs sind sehr langsam und brauchen Ewigkeiten, neue Charaktere sind overpowert und die Gier nach Geld ist sichtbar. Aber dennoch macht es auch Free2Play sehr viel Spaß und ist meiner Meinung nach sogar besser als League of Legends.

平衡性很差，基本上就是逼着你氪金。
游戏模式其实是有一点创新的，但没有深入下去。比如技能发展，完全可以让每个宝可梦多几个分支。地图也可以多样一些，引入更多的地图机制。
游戏节奏很快，有点太快了，导致玩家操作空间其实很小，决定胜负的几乎就是宝可梦强度。
