>>42945251So? You realise Game Freak's utter uniqueness to EVER OTHER FUCKING TWO-BIT STUDIO? They have gold, utter gold and never needed to improve to sell it to children (which was a godsend as Nintendo never gave them the tools to take it to what you want before now, meaning they didn't bother learning, what's the point when there were two separate ecosystems, both underpowered to fuck at that), other studios DON'T - they're never going to create the lightning in a bottle that was Pokémon, especially not when graphics is the meme of the day. They need to be able to compete with the landscape which is doubly harder when you're pitching at adults too instead of kids.
Now Nintendo gave them the keys to a 90's era F1 car and you think they should be ale to do flying laps with it straight out the gate. Did YOU tank your shitbox astra round the roads when you were starting off driving? Doubt it, you're here talking to me instead of being a bunch of flowers as a remembrance. The same deal applies, GF need to learn, they're not going to do owt they're not comfortable doing, they proved this before when RS looked like GS with more colours and sharper sprites, instead of using the GBA hardware more in-depth.
