>>36160059I think you're kind of missing the point. When I say that these are children's games, I'm not saying, "Don't look at this critically at all because who cares lol." What I'm saying is that the developers made certain choices to make the game accessible to young kids and people whose only exposure to pokemon is Go. The two main complaints I'm seeing in this thread are that people don't like the graphics and they don't like the decision to remove random battles. The graphics are a stylistic choice that was made for broad appeal. I'm looking at this image
>>36160053 and honestly I don't have a problem with what I'm seeing. An argument could even be made that this style for a pokemon game is more true to the originals, they've deliberately maintained a similar sense of scale and layout to the classic gameboy graphics. Perhaps you would prefer a more realistic 3-D world akin to BotW, but that's just your opinion. As for the wild battles, I'd stress again that this is not a mainline game. They're going in a different direction to try and keep the franchise fresh and bring in newer players. That's the whole goal with this game.
