>>22925755>but there actually are incredibly thick forests IRL that people use machetes to get throughNot the case in pokemon, there are no machetes that can cut down whole trees and there are no vines obstructing progress.
> it's definitely not as much of a stretch as "grass too thick" Yes it's bigger, because it's literally a wall of tightly packed trees with no gaps between them, something that doesn't happen anywhere.
Meanwhile, there are designated pathways and keep of the grass signs in reality.
>Oh boy. Again, what "dark grass" is so thick that you can't walk through it IRL (even though head-high grass is fine)?You keep on going back to that like it matters for the visuals. It objectively looks better.
>It looks more waist-high in RSE, that's just another way they dropped the ball.You couldn't tell in RSE because it was 2D and flat. Unless you want to believe everyone in pokemon moved in an upward direction by ramming their face into the ground for support
>They can't jump without a bike.They jump down the ledges just fine ignoring that why can't they jump back up with the bike?
You're making a mountain out of a molehill and making yourself look worse because you're ignoring one arbitrary limitation in favour of another.
You can't pick and choose like that.
