>>40870116>But when I did, I got what people were talking about. Actually having a lot of fun going around taking pictures of everything.good for you, but when i play a zelda game, i expect dungeons, item-based progression, and a steady stream of new enemies to adapt to - not pokemon snap featuring link from the zelda series.
>Botw has the best physics engine I've honestly ever seen done in a video game.too bad physics alone can't carry a game when there's nothing fun to do with them.
>Pokemon can also easily shit out mobile titles, remakes and spin offs to sedate rabid fanboys who can't wait longer for another game exactly like what they played 12 months ago.the problem is that spinoffs don't sell well. for some reason, the game freak cocksuckers who will otherwise buy anything with pikachu and charizard in it lose all interest whenever another studio gets the ip. that's why they were phased out and replaced by the annual release cycle.
>Botw is much more reminiscent of the original Zelda title.this is a blatant lie, see pic related for why you're full of shit.
>No, you just sound like you can't appreciate anything except a very particular type of game, or just desperate to defend pokemon. i'm not desperate to defend pokemon. i've just seen too many other franchises sell out to the open-world meme and become irredeemably shit. final fantasy, zelda, metal gear solid, etc.
final fantasy is actually the best comparison because, like pokemon right now, it was already in full decline before the open world meme. their attempt to do open world with ffxv is when the series officially became a laughingstock.
