The problem is the time and money spent on a pointless optional feature could be spent in more important things. Had Kalos not had customization it would have been a better region.

None with customization, I quite like it.

The problem is they said it would be a Kalos only feature bak then, to justify their lazyness in not putting customization in ORAS and now, there you have it, customization!
They are fucking liars.

Character customization is ridiculously easy to do in a game that uses 3D models.

They're almost all just a few basic similar models with a lot of different textures.

Skin color, hair color and eye color is also obviously easy as fuck to do.

Hell if they really wanted to they could implement some kind of make your own texture option just like Animal Crossing has, I bet that would be really popular.

Yeah if Selene is the female protag's canon name, that's a pretty poor choice. I get its relationship to moon, but we literally just had Serena. There are other moon-related female names they could choose.

Ocarina of time was the first 3d Zelda. It's remembered as a masterpiece to this day. It used to be that making a radical technological leap was an excuse for other companies, but not for Nintendo, who'd always find a way to not only improve on technology but better gameplay in ways that'd blow everyone's minds. They've lost the touch man.

During ORAS hype season, Masuda said that Trainer Customization wasn't returning and that it was a "Kalos thing." And now, here we are in Sun/Moon, and Trainer Customization is back. It shows how incompetent GameFreak is.

Not that anon, but I appreciate and understand his sentiment. Masuda is notorious for his misinformation and lies, and removing features. All of the games he directed, or played large parts in, are the ones that removed significant features.

So, due to how fucking easy customization is, and how much backlash there was when it was removed, he brings it back, and everyone sucks his dick, when he shouldnt have removed it in the first place.

We're happy with customization being in S/M anon, we're not happy with Masuda.

Orlando/Anna was the "demo name" ala Xavier/Yvonne Hilbert/Hilda. Sun/Moon are these.

Elio/Selene fit in with the names that actually have meanings like Calem/Serena Hilbert/Hilda Nate/Rosa. They're the canon ones.

I don't know why people get up in arms over this shit anyway, they're just names. Names you can *change*.

I wonder why they did that shit? It's not like we didn't know May/Brendans name, and they clearly didn't actually change them, so...?

It's just weird, and it makes searching for artwork (porn) inconvenient because we don't have proper names and tags for them yet.

Didn't Sugamori say something about how player characters will always wear hats as far as he's concerned? He may not draw the protaganists anymore but he's still likely has as much pull as Masuda.

Elio and Selene are just names inspired by the game titles. The canon names are never this. "Calem" and "Serena" has nothing to do with X and Y. "Hilbert" and "Hilda" have nothing to do with black and white. This just isn't how Gamefreak names the characters.

It's pretty important, anon.

Having established and official names certifies the characters in the eyes of a lot of fans. Look at """""leaf"""""", who has no official name, and doesn't even appear in the games as an NPC. S'far as Game Freak is concerned, she doesn't exist, only Red did.

So people take the player characters seriously.

Also helps if the characters have good names that don't sound retarded. Selene is a crappy name. Not quite as bad as fucking Hilda though. Took me a long time to get over that one.

I just don't understand why this is such a big deal. It's just a name, if the game comes out and has a different name, people will use that name.

Right now though? I'm searching through every community that isn't /vp/ and Elio/Selene *are* trending. People have accepted them and it won't be long until future pre-release fanart starts tagging said names.

He's not, no, although he is playing a large overseeing role in it, like he did with OR/AS.

This is his last game though. And S/M had a longer than usual development time.

So I am holding out hope that the series can only go uphill from here.
