I'm tired of pokemon fans saying things like "it's a good foundation for the next game" and "it was their first try" They're never going to make the dream game because they fall behind on rapdily progressing technology and use use project to train the younger staff. And that's all within the strict deadlines to coincide with the merch. It was more feasible in the 2D handheld days but it's just not going to happen in the modern gaming industry.
So either accept the games as they are or shut your fucking mouth
