>>45574471for some reason a lot of people thinks "bigger is better" or "more hard is better", however, many RPGs that are considered the pinnacle of the genre are relatively short or even easy and stand out in other ways (characters, worldbuilding, etc). Pokémon has the potential to make a very good game, it has a rich worldbuilding, but IMO it is the burden of the franchise too.
Open world is a tool, maybeis a good idea to expand the pokemon world, but if is executed poorly, it would not contribute much
