>>54877139The gameplay doesn't matter, as evidenced by continuously shit games printing money continuously. Gen wars don't matter. Linearity or PvP balance or level curve or graphics or bugs or whatever the fuck nerd bullshit complaint you have doesn't matter.
Plush. Cartoons. Comics. Cards. Fucking sleep apps. That matters. THE GAMEPLAY DOESN'T MATTER. You will continue to get expensive corporate slop that preys on the sunk cost of your childhood and you will buy it anyway.
Look at it this way. Marvel. Cars. Internet. Food. Life. Literally everything is falling apart and worse than you remember and it doesn't matter BECAUSE YOU WILL BUY IT ANYWAY. People defend mediocrity because the alternative is admitting to wasting your life on worthless addictions. The fans doomed the franchise. Pokemon Red and Blue was a statement about postwar japan and RPGs at that moment. Everything after is money. Enjoy your cope.
