Then the treatment of the franchise since then, I am not sure if you've noticed, but is FUCKED UP. Notice how the marketing for Z is in full force, even in the dub, but we haven't even had a new game announced? Shit has been going down over at Game Freak. That much is obvious.
Then this 20th anniversary is the nail in the coffin. Event Pokémon each month, of Mythical Pokémon everyone already has by now, half of which require GameStop visits, and then the rest of the anniversary is dedicated to pandering to people who don't even play the games anymore? What the actual fuck? Does Game Freak give such little shit about us? Let's not forget Masuda's bare-faced lying regarding Post-Game content in OR/AS, and why content that was in X/Y was absent from the newer games.
So I ask you guys, what do you think? Is Game Freak planning something good? What is the future of the franchise? Will /vp/ recover, or will we continue to wither away until we are deleted, and forced into a General on /vg/? What can Game Freak do to redeem themselves, in your eyes?
