@Strictlystyles In the old games you could actually compare his stuff to the real artwork a lot of the time. With how much the visuals have improved this time around, that should be even easier.
Okay, I respect your opinion, and this is a well written article. However, I would like to offer some counterpoints: >"For years, the same animation of Wingull swaying from side to side has been recreated but when it comes to Sword and Shield this suddenly becomes indicative of lazy development." It is now being called lazy because it has been the same for years.
>"it’s those that have embraced innovation that have continued to perform well" >"Sun and Moon were the first games to really break from the mould of ‘catch, train, battle, gym, repeat’" Except, they didn't really innovate. The formula was still the same, they just renamed the gym battles.
Also, they are literally just using the 3DS Models for the old Pokemon. They were built to last into the HD generation. That's why people were able to find HD models in the 3DS games. They only have to create the new ones. As for the animations; the 3DS Pokemon games have always had pretty bad battle animations for the most part. Some are nice, yes, but most are just blegh.
GameFreak is sitting on the most lucrative franchise OF ALL TIME. NOTHING MAKES MORE MONEY THAN POKEMON! They HAVE the ressources they need to make a true, next generation Pokemon game. But they don't care. Because they don't need to. Because kids will buy it anyway. GameFreak does not deserve the franchise anymore. Let someone else handle it Monolith, Retro, idc. Just not GameFreak.
Why would you do this when you can make a *(****)* ton of money as a whitehat hacker? Every big tech company would pay a ton of money for someone with his skill.

Anyone who admits that they wrote an article to get "hateviews" should be immediately banned from whatever publication they work for.

The golden trout is worth 15k. Stuff put in the box only sells for 80% of its value due to "shipping costs".
