>>42037411>Not a single model in that screenshot you posted is as high-poly as the Pokemon models in the 3DS games.i knew some dickhead would post something like this
what you aren't seeing is that the play space is like 50 times larger than a pokemon battle, fully detailed, every character has a fuckton of animations, the camera can be freely controlled by the player and you can zip around the level very quickly
yes the nightmare has less polygons that magearna, but there's never 12 pokemon in a battle while there can be 12 nightmares in kingdom hearts
pokemon saves a ton of memory by having completely empty backgrounds, only allowing one attack onscreen at a time, and even hiding trainer models when there's a lot of particle effects onscreen. and it still can't hit 30 FPS.
