Do we though? Not even the anime cares about SWSH too much since they're bringing back all regions alongside it. Furthermore Masters has surveys about how long people play the mainline games for. Game Freak themselves want to make more original properties as exciting as Pokemon. I firmly believe that mainline games will not be a thing come the end of gen 9.

The survey asks when you stop playing a game, as in, do you stop before the e4 or do you continue into the post game.
We have no idea what the anime is or if it is even replacing the Ashnime to begin with.
Every fucking company doesn't want only one product they're known for, especially since even something as huge as pokemon can end. It's not sustainable to only focus on one series.
Also nintendo will always publish the games because they sell systems. Case in point, the new swsh lite.

XY was shit and unfinished because they were rushing for the anniversary.
Ironically, the anniversary games had to be rushed into a shit, unfinished state too because they needed to hurry up and develop for Switch.
Now Sword and Shield will be rushed into a shit, unfinished state because of deadlines, and Gen 9 will fare no better because Gen 10 will have to be on a new platform, requiring GameFreak to learn how to develop for said platform, and Gen 10 will be rushed into a shit, unfinished state because of that.

Mobile games have a more consistent number of downloads since they're can be bumped up to at the top of the stores each time they get significant/major updates, or if the devs pays for it
At this time go had less downloads than masters but there's way more downloads of go than purchases of main games
And Masters does it WITHOUT ANY 32bit smartphone at all

Just checked and you can't rate an app that you can't download at least in the google play store (32bit users can't even download the app from the store)
So the 1* must be coming from users with lag/crash/fuckgacha issues only
Meanwhile the iOS rates are rather high as apple switched to 64bit hardware earlier

32bit users can't install/rate/play the game, but 64bit users which experience issues in it still can
All of the people who are rating the game have a 64bit phone, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to play it
It's the same as in windows, running a x64-only software on a x32 installation of windows is impossible

>>39889361
This >>39889426 is pretty much the short answer
Long answer : they don't support 32 bit because of the new google play policies
Before August 2019 you could just release a 32bit app and call it a go, as 32bit apps still work on 32bit devices
Now if you want to support 32bit, you HAVE TO release a 64bit version alongside it, and this also affects app updates
In 2021, 32bit-only apps will STOP APPEARING on the play store for 64bit devices
Simply releasing a 64bit app is possible
So the masters devs don't support 32 bit as they would have to maintain a 32bit app only to drop it 2 years later when most of the android phones (and 100% of the new ones) will be 64bit.
Also not supporting 32bit lets them target iOS 11.0+ only, so they can benefit from a cleaner dev environment and still support any iPhone from the 5s (except the 5c)

>But the design, that was done internally at Game Freak. I gave some specific setting directions to one of our designers who was also a fan of the original games and played them as a kid, so he had a really good idea of what I was looking for, based on this kind of very simple metal nut design.
Meltan was 100% Gamefreak's doing. It was similar to how the anime director didn't think the legendary birds could carry a movie on their own, so Gamefreak designed Lugia specifically for the anime.

they literally had to rely on poketubers/influencers to promote the game because all the official videos were showing fucking nothing like Pidgeot using Wing Attack or some shit like that lol

Yeah, and they had an adverse effect on the main games. The more money these mobile games make, the less the main series will matter, thus quality will go down until they cease production entirely.
