>>37291051I honestly want a highly detailed, beautiful, openworld sprite game. I dont think the design of Pokemon (fantastical and cartoonish) works well in a hyper-realistic setting. DESU it doesn't even need to be HD or anything, just well-done.
I think it'd be cool if the people in Pokemon were slightly more like real people. Keep the "I like shorts because they're comfy and easy to wear!" boy, but also add some old ladies who ask you to do things for them.
"Oh, you're a trainer? Please help me, a Murkrow took my hat! He's sitting in a tree somewhere with it."
Then you go outside, look around the local area, see a Murkrow in a tree with a hat, interact to battle with it, bring the hat back, and the lady gives you a potion or something.
