imagine if they didn't announce the direct for next week. People would be in an autistic rage over lack of SS news.

I think that’s why they did that. Directs are usually announced two days beforehand but they knew how lukewarm this thing was gonna be.

I’m just waiting for the direct to confirm that I should drop the series. That press conference confirmed that they’re replacing beloved spinoffs with mobileshit pandering to the lowest common denominator audience. The message was clear that the game’s don’t matter anymore, so I’m just waiting for the direct to see if they put any effort in this time. The conference was fucking depressing but it was classic Gamefreak all the way, I think a lot of us have just accepted that the series is dying at this point. If LGPE was the last nail in the coffin, that conference was Gamefreak fucking burying the coffin in advance.

This gacha cashgrab will literally be forgotten once the sword and shield direct drops on june 5th. Mainline pokemon games will never go away since they make too much cash off them.

I have no doubt that sword/shield is going to make a lot of money, my worry is that the gacha will rake in so much, it'll overshadow the main games.

Most of us have no hope left so of course we don't flip out.

When I saw the news I posted a little but I had to leave for a while because it was overall just too depressing.

But that's been true for a couple years now. Sword and Shield is simply their last chance before I stick to the past games and ignore anything they do.

They can scam people with MTX all they want but they won't be getting any more tens of thousands from me like they have the last 20 years.

This isn't FE. The gacha game will not overshadow the main games. The gacha game will be successful but they won't overshadow the main games at all. Mainline pokemon will always be the biggest money maker of them all.

After seeing what gacha can do to a franchise, I'd say he has good reason to be paranoid.

Yeah the next direct is going to be huge, assuming the actually reveal a bunch of stuff, which they'll likely do.

You know, at least we're back to a normal region with Gyms and stuff. That's a first.

Seems completely fine to me. I'll probably download and play the gacha but I'm not putting any money into it.
I don't see what's so bad that makes people think the franchise is literally dead.

It killed their hopes if it one day turning around and pandering exclusively to them, not the normies or the world at large/rubes who'll give money to anything with the Pokémon logo. This presentation just showed them they are always going to be an afterthough and bless the poor sausages, they just can't come to terms with that calmly, so lash out.

Unless gatcha starts earning more than merch sales, I think we'll be fine anon. I understand why smaller franchises adopted them more wholly, but pokémon ISN'T your niche JRPG.

Not an unreasonable concern, considering how much FGO makes.
