>>39727538>Minimal backlashIt's everything but minimal. Won't stop Game Freak from rushing this game out the door and pretend everything's okey dokey before rushing in and already planning for Diamond/Pearl remakes or sequels for Sword and Shield already.
Look, I'm not one of those obsessed #BringNationalDexBack protesters like those people who wish to win brownie points just because they're standing up against a big meanie company or whatever, but I am sad that the franchise has gotten to this point.
The only ones I feel sad about is the B-team that get told to work with old assets and not even being given enough time or resources to make something more than just the previous game with a different coating. All while A team is working on Town, who I'm sure it'll be a sleeper hit exactly like Drill Dozer and other Game Freak games.
Jesus christ, Game Freak isn't even being that pressured if they are willing to also make games for other platforms.
