>>56878866anon I have the feeling this is bait but I will bite out of morbid curiosity and endless boredom - why? I won't defend them in being the best or brightest games but honestly in design and concept more mainline shit like Yokai watch wasn't that great either and I am not singing praises of it's downfall. hell, I can't say I am a lover of some of them either, I hate Temtem more then Palworld and Pokemon combined but it being snuffed won't make Monster Taming/collector games get magically better, especially not pokemon. I just have an itch for a particular niche of games that cant just be scratched by repeatedly playing the same line of games, even with nuzlocke runs and Randomizers.
>>56878872never said pokemon has not, hence why I also pointed to the dragon quest post the other anon made. Palworld isnt special, but it and other smaller games are at least giving me something else to this genre since what little else I have are either DS exclusive games, old ass games like SMT, or fucking digimon... which is also old as fuck but I just don't vibe with the design and naming process.
