Let's have a serious talk, /vp/. Who at Gamefreak is poisoning the well? Why does a multi billion dollar franchise see technological failures and embarrassments over and over when they can afford any devs they could find? Optimization issues are not new to the franchise, and can be dated back to at least Gold and Silver where Iwata had to step in to write a new compression algorithm for the games.
Ultimately, what needs to change at Gamefreak for the franchise to be treated as a AAA franchise, instead of half baked merch vehicles that are "good enough" to ship?
