>>45785539This is a very good complaint, and many RPGs suffer from this, not just Pokemon. Pic related, for example, is supposed to be a giant bustling castle city in the heart of Skyrim. It doesn't quite live up to that when you start counting the houses.
Making shit look and feel impressive with limited scale and resources is really difficult. If you want an example of doing it properly, just look at San Andreas - it's actually one third the size of GTA V, but it feels like an entire state in comparison to GTA V's single city with an empty desert backyard.
