>>39084335I don't really see that as a fair comparison though.
>Dragon Quest XI started development in 2013, with it being announced in 2015So 5 years, probably with at least 1 year of conception before full production (considering they had first gameplay in 2015).
>Development of Sword and Shield began immediately following the development of Pokémon Sun and Moon in 2016. This started with an initial concept phase that lasted for approximately a year before the games moved into full production.Versus 3 years of development, with only 2 years of production.
And on top of that, the team making DQXI was highly experienced with high quality console RPG development while this is GF's first real stint into HD console development.
And the people in charge of project management were retarded and decided to turn LGPE into a full game in the middle of the development while working on even more projects.
I think the game has a lot of shitty cuts and quick assets because GF was put under a strict deadline but were retarded with their management.
