>>47116815SWSH was labasted because the developers said they took the time to redo the Pokemon models and animations only for the game to have the same animations from XY, on top of the game looking bad in general. I think without the dexcut, SWSH would still be made fun of for having bad graphics, but people wouldn't mind it since, whatever, the Pokemon are here, its the full experience.
SWSH's graphics and general artstyle are something that could have been improved with more effort, we've seen tons and tons of more stylized JRPGs on the Switch, people wanted a DP remake in the SWSH style because they assumed the graphics would be better the more experienced GF got with developing on console. If you're talking about that SWSH Sinnoh trailer, yes, people wanted a SWSH Sinnoh that doesn't look horrible, a game in the style of XB2, Ni No Kuni, DQ11, what have you.
BDSP going full """"faithful"""" remake is laughable because not only did GF take the lazy route of not even bothering to bring DP up to modern standards, the style that was selected for the game STILL looks bad. It's not a matter of people suddenly flipping around and liking SWSH's style, people wanted SWSH's style to be refined and we couldn't even get that.
