>>25110511>they arent fansyes they are, pokemon was rebooted after gen 2 if you didn't realize
the art style, game mechanics, tone of the games, and wait for it REMAKES of the original titles that came express that fact very clearly
so you are saying that people can't be fans because they lost interest in a franchise after it got rebooted? that's retarded
just because you liked something how it originally was doesn't mean you need to like it after it gets rebooted and goes in a different direction
but more importantly
>pokemon just happened to be a part of their childhoodno, they made pokemon what it was, without them you wouldn't have pokemon today because they are the ones who turned a glitchy game with outdated graphics and gameplay into a religion over night, without them it wouldn't have ever gotten sequels.
now here is the big difference going back to the reboot
the culture surrounding the game was completely different back then, the game wasn't presented as cartoony kiddie shit the way it is now, it was virtual cock fighting and never tried to be anything else.
so no, there is nothing wrong with not liking the direction a franchise went while still enjoying the experience you originally had with it before it jumped the shark
face it, the games aren't good anymore
