I'm sorry /vp/ but I give up. I have officially lost all hope.

The more and more I saw people just didn't care, the more I realize that Pokemon is doomed. Not enough people care about the problems with Sword and Shield to even make it under perform, let alone bomb. And this means there will be no reason for GF to reverse course. Sword and Shield will be the standard, they're not going to bother ever including all the Pokemon ever again and theres nothing we can do about it.

You mean the same problems every other game you lapped up had?

Ya know, had /vp/ een around and the internet been as ubiquitous as it is today back at the start of Gen III when a lot of my peers had dropped the series, I'm sure I'd have seen just as much bitching, doomposting and butthurt from the kids growing to accept Pokémon doesn't cater to adults as I do todday.

I know this may be hard to believe, but people kept telling me "yeah right, you say 'fuck this series I quit!' but you'll just come crawling back by next game haha"

Truth is, pokemon DID die for me. Ever since USUM, I felt my hype fall to bottomless depths.

I knew that the next game, whatever it was, DP remake or new gen, it needed to renew my Pokemon game love that was then on life support.

It didn't.

Instead, it officially killed it. I wasn't angry, sad--just disappointed. And after coming to terms with it, I stopped visiting serebii, I stopped checking pokemon news, and I rarely visit /vp/.

I guess there are others like me, but Pokemon did die for me this generation, and I'm not even angry enough to attempt and check back hoping for something good. I haven't bought a Switch nor will I for a game I have zero excitement for.

It was a fun couple decades, I guess I finally got my answer to a question I had as a kid "How old will I be when I quit Pokemon?" I didn't think it'd be at 24, in 2019.

See ya, /vp/.

Some for me save the lack of anger and end bits.

I love this series too much for that. Understandable though and what I keep telling people is a reason people are dropping off and not even disliking the trailers meaning their gloating over increased like dislike ratios is nonsense. Yeah, of course if people are driven away they stop interacting. No shit.

And as a company it is 100% not what what Game Freak wants.

Not even just for Pokémon. They can't honestly think people will jump on things like LTH knowing how their other series was treated meaning unless they stop doing what they're doing, they're trapping themselves in this downward spiral.

Deep down even the shills know better. NOTHING else will take off until they show they give a fuck about keeping the most dedicated of their players happy.

Not casuals, not mobiletrash players, not "innovation" fags AKA change for the sake of change fags, the ones who like the series for what it has been and gave them their position to begin with. They need to take their time and bring all of the content back and then ADD to it, not take away and/or rename shit in a new package changing something that already worked. Almost no one would've complained if no cut was announced or contests were shown or more megas and Z-moves were shown as is instead of combined and renamed.

As it stands, unless they smarten up in another decade Game Freak will be nothing more than a footnote in mobiletrash credits and we'll likely be seeing someone like Morimoto making a spiritual successor on Kickstarter - the last time anyone hears the Pokémon name and really cares.

Wait, hold up dude. there's tons and tons of fun and great games on the Switch. There a lot of underrated 'hidden gems' that nobody talks about but it isn't all yoshi and Mario kart

Same, I stopped following serebii and other sites, Joe in particular because he just couldn't keep gamefreak's cock out of his mouth for 10 fucking seconds. I also hop on here only when something interesting happens like the pixelated tease, there's just no excited from me.
Sure I'll probably play Sword and Shield eventually, but all the way up until gen 6, I needed to make sure the games were in my hands on release, but now I'm not bothered by the prospect of waiting for it to work with the Switch emulator.
I spend more of my time playing difficulty hacks/fangames than I'll ever spend on official vanilla works again.

Just because the franchise continues doesn't meant it's good or has the same spirit anymore.

I will quit the series, that's what you can do. Not for GF, one less customer is nothing for them, for you: you stop playing shitty games and start playing better ones or find a more uplifting hobby altogether.

Girl cry me a river. Pokemon has been churning content out for 24 years straight. Of course it's out of gas and dying. Name a single franchise that didn't get shitty after 20 consecutive active years. No one can. It either needs to go dormant for half a decade minimum or finally be given the chance to die off completely. It's just how pop culture works

I doubt it. GF is more united than you think. Sadly, though, you are right about pokemon being turned in a glorified mobile franchise in a few years.

Pokemon's main series is at no risk of dying. Nintendo needs them to sell their portable consoles, and has enough of a stake in TPCi that they can ensure not every game will be for phones.

I think I'm done with Pokemon for at least a little while now too
/vp/ is absolutely boring when you don't care what happens to this series anymore
Of course after sword and shield something interesting might happen, but I can't stay interested in this series right now
