Pokemon remakes have gone from grand main line adventures designed to improve the originals with updated graphics, features and Pokemon to outsourced shovelware, and people will defend it.
Every fucking influencer before this was talking about how they wanted big wild area type stuff, new forms, Gigantamax, new moves, even new Pokemon, and they're getting cheap shovelware that's at best a 1:1 clone with chibi graphics. And they'll all praise it because it's "faithful."
The franchise is beyond dead. Remakes from now on will be cheap shovelware. Game Freak can't code so Legends will run like shit. The monetization will only increase. Snap is a miracle but won't be enough. Give up and let go.
