>>55572258Look anon, nobody cares that the producer knows what the employee are doing. People care if the producer is *involved* in the actual creation of the game.
Hey, do know who is credited as "executive producer" on Red and Blue and Gold and Silver? Hiroshi Yamauchi, president of Nintendo.

Because Game Freak desperately needed money at the time and requested financial help from Nintendo (that's why Pokemon is partially owned by them)
Did Yamauchi do *ANYTHING for the development of Pokemon? Fuck no, and we know he didn't. He simply allocated funds for the game and helped with the game promotion overseas (50millions to be exact)
Likewise, Tajiri now votes the budget and takes care of the paperwork. He doesn't do anything for the game, and the new generations are as removed from his philosophy as Kalos is from Kanto, geographically.
Please, spend less time spouting memes and educate yourself. Not in a "woke" way, don't worry. Learn how game development works, please. It will help you =)
