From an interview in 2010 regarding Black & White:
>Another complaint Masuda had heard was that children were having too much trouble completing the main story of the game, and that they usually ended giving up. Along this line, the map was designed so that it would be a linear adventure and younger players wouldn’t get lost. Since most of the appeal of the game was what you did post-story, Masuda wanted as many people to reach that point as possible.
>and /vp/ will claim that Game Freak doesn't listen to their audience
