>>27800903Yes, but for the past 7 years, the games have had a huge dominant western influence, in designs, characters, locations, ect.
Obviously, the game being made by the Japanese will leave their influence on it, but you know what I am saying mate.
>>27800922Pokémon had an incredible western cultural impact, even moreso than Japan. Compare Pokémon to other western vidya, and you'll notice how much of the Japan influence and focus they dropped after Johto. Even Hoenn and Sinnoh were incredibly watered down with their Japanese influence, before they even dropped the idea of Regions being Japan-inspired to boot.
>>27800958Oh, oh man, I am SO sorry for forgetting Korea. I am certainly a "fucking retard", and the rest of my post has been entirely invalidated because of my incredibly shameful mistake!
Chill out, anon~
