I don't really have a horse in the race though, as I think both of the "new" games announced look fine, and I totally understand people being excited for them, but I'm kind of... indifferent.

It's fine! I didn't really know if you were or weren't, so I wanted to cover everything. I also think the slightly different yet still the same battles are cool, so I wanted to talk about them. I totally get what you're saying.
