>>42598028Dude poured his heart and soul into Gen 5, and it got shat on. So he just figured that he didn't need to try and to just churn out formulaic drek that came out since Gen 6. So I'd say both. Gen 5 was fucking pretentious, but you can tell he tried.
I'd do the same thing if I were him.
Why try to do new things if you can just go by the numbers and make a massive profit?
