>>48067633>>finally removing 4 direction movement isn’t improving the gameThat is the consequence of having a circle pad.
A nice addition at first, but then it becomes standard and shouldn't be remembered as something to be glorified.
>adding trainer customization isn’t improving the gameIt is, but at first was limited than was expanded, and it is a good thing to give choice.
>adding overworld encounters isn’t improving the gameIt is, but it's just model walking around the map and doing nothing most of the times. There's a lot of room for improvement and maybe this time in PLA they're bringing it.
>adding a dynamic camera isn’t improving the gameAre you talking about the Free 360 camera?
Well, it is an improvement, but it's not that big of a deal if you just do the bare minimum.
This is the minimum of what they could be capable of doing and instead are scratching off.
>letting you play with your pokemon isn’t improving the gameThat was already present in other 2 games before and in this version of the game was done poorly with bad animations, and weird model collision.
People want to play with their Pokémon but in the overworld, not in a placeholder first person area.
VERDICT: What you've picked as features, are instead the bare minimum technically that they can do in their games.
If you compare it to other AAA games on the same hardware, Game Freak is just scratching the surface of what they can do.
Everything looks so static, devoid of life and boring.
