>>51504680>the issue is now they have artists who cant pull off what they think they can doing sugimoris jobThis is wrong.
Like most of Gamefreak, the issue is that the main artist is in a mindset where they do not feel passion for these projects anymore. Therefore when they finish a piece with minor (and in this case major) fuck ups, they'll go "Fuck it, good enough, Masuda doesn't care and neither do the fans."
I know this because as a drawfag myself I fall victim to this myself when my motivation hits a low, and when you work professionally, in other words draw for a company rather than yourself, it's even easier to lose passion.
