>>53128173For me it was with the first remake, they realized that they could exploit the nostalgia with minimal investment.
With the subsequent games they realized that they could lower costs, reduce delivery times, and even so the public would continue buying their shit, either out of nostalgia or trend.
I would like to blame Nintendo when they bought part of Pokemon, but despite being assholes with fanworks, I must admit that Nintendo has an efficient work policy and tries to maintain a quality standard, so I don't understand why GF strives to have absolute control over these games when it is obvious that now the franchise is too big for them and it is more than obvious that they no longer enjoy continuing with these, for example there is their failed RPG that shows that they gave higher priority over Pokemon and even So it was a big failure, they remind me of bands like Radio Head that ended up hating their creation just because it's the only thing the public asks for.
