>>55882209By the last "traditional" games I think you mean the last games that weren't universally shit on by the entire internet. People were somewhat cynical about the future of the series back in 2017, but it was Sword and Shield that caused people's expectations to totally nosedive off a cliff, causing lots of fans to jump ship. Discussion of the recent games isn't interesting to many anons and discussion around the older games gets stale. This means no one is making threads, leading to the catalog being drowned out by shitty bait threads on top of the always ubiquitous coomer threads.
>picrelThe precise moment this board died. Sword and Shield did so much damage to the fanbase it's unreal, and it's not just contained to /vp/, either.
