>>26608659>It does. It's also the reason this issue exists in the first place.If you're referring to them gimping the game in order for the next one to sell well or whatever you said along those lines, that's only cutting into their profits more while losing more buyers.
It doesn't make sense in the slightest and it still uses your own personal notions as to what's good and what isn't.
>I'm sure they were in a different situation. This is just how Game Freak/TPC/Nintendo want it to work.See above.
>I'm just saying it's not as big as you make it out to be.You aren't getting it, they are making it from nigh scratch. They didn't reuse any assets like they did with gen 1 to 2. It was all entirely new.
That's going to cut take up a lot of development time so something has to give. It's not something they chose to do, it's something they had to do.
> They could have easily had Pokémon following you in BWIf I remember right they didn't finish all of the sprites for the gen 5 pokemon, which is why they weren't available using the Dreamworld until Black and White 2. And again there were other things they had to handle that were of more importance like the dreamworld and global link.
Adding a small feature in HG/SS was fine and easy because it was a remake everything was already there and they didn't have to change much.
It's not the same for Black and White.
>But then there's also stuff like easy/hard mode, which they could keep and even expand a little with each game if they wanted.Difficulty modes would require different AI that incorporates the new moves and Pokemon, it would have been harder to implement than following pokemon.
I don't think you know much about game development.
