The point about graphics being "important" is because of the value of work. If a game has shit gameplay, and interactions or physics then it should at least look fucking pretty. The reverse is also true where if a game lacks in immense graphics, then it at least have functionality AS a game.
You're paying people to do the same level of work that other people were doing 10+ years ago even when they have the easy access resources and that's not even including money itself. You're only looking at it in a vacuum environment as though all we need is graphics - that is wrong, and you are just too stupid to realize this.
What our issue with is that not only are we going to get sub-par gameplay, interactions, physics and LOL not even the full dex of pokemon (which is literally the whole fucking selling point objective of the whole fucking franchise "gotta catch em all"). We are also not getting anything that aesthetically pleasing, and the only way you can ever say that sword and shield look nice is only if you compare them to older pokemon games. Which again, EVERY SINGLE pokemon game has been SEVERELY behind EVERY other fucking game ever released in the same fucking year.
They are a multi billion dollar company.
It's 2019.
They have a next gen handheld console.
Yet here they are giving us low quality games because they refuse to share their IP with a better developer so they can still rack in the money because literally NOBODY else more competent is allowed to make these games.
So get off your fucking high horse and actually think about more than "hur durr graphics babies"
