>>38571053guess it can't really be proven, but stuff like "BW were hated and that caused kanto pandering" or "alola forms were made to increase type variety in LGPE" are similar claims. but i remember an interview some point after XY where masuda said he wanted to put in increasing amounts of romantic subtext in the games citing the whole "fireworks with a boy" thing. and i mean ORAS did it too in the delta episode so i figured it was just a trend that started with BW2 and crept further
>>38571125>implying having endless cutscenes for a meh tier character at best did the game any goodSM had plenty of other problems but don't pretend that wasn't a big one
