>>39426082Kinda, Yes, the whole “we had to remake models” is not proven as it was a shitty google translation on a Reddit post that spawned all this. They said the cuts were for “high quality” animations (which there are none), but that was likely just an excuse. The “we remade all models” is likely not true, as the LGPE models are identical to the 3DS ones, minus textures.
Also, you can criticize games even if you don’t make them. As an animator, I know how this stuff works. GameFreak doesn’t do it uniquely from other studios.
