>>51148798>better chibi models (heads are way too big, too much cute)yeah, I saw this image and I have to say that the chibi models don't actually look that closely to the sprites in terms of actual appearance, they are more like MySims in terms of proportions and expression. The original sprites actually had a single pixel for a mouth which gave the characters a more neutral expression over the plastic soulless smile and looked a bit squished
>>51148869Not really because TMs only appear once in the map and NPCs almost never give TMs that can be bought elsewhere, in Gens 5-8 they are treated as a sort of collectable this way. If they wanted to carry over some mechanics from Gen 8 (since it only borrowed ones from Gen 6 from 2013) they should have brought TRs into the mix and save permanent TMs for later.
