>>36605779>Overdesigned is a buzzwordCalling something a buzzword is ironically a buzzword itself. The word might be wrongly used sometimes, but there are times when it has merit.
>Transformers, zoids and kaijuEver notice how, in those franchises, the cleaner, simpler designs are the ones that last in people's memory?
Do you even remember how the movie!Transformers were an utter clusterfuck of grey parts that swished from one side of the big screen to the other? Does that not count as overdesign?
>There are just as many unmemorable pokemonAnd there's also Pikachu, Eevee, Mewtwo, Greninja, Charizard, etc.
Your argument is shit because the Digimon designs people remember fondly are the simpler ones, like Agumon and Gatomon/Tailmon.
