>>57530078It's fine if you like Xenoblade, but you have to understand. Pokemon is not Xenoblade or breath of the wild, Pokemon is not known for its graphics, graphics was never what made Pokemon great. You should be focused on good gameplay, how many features are in a Pokemon game, and most importantly how fun the game is. Pokemon was never about their graphics, and the fact that they sacrificed good gameplay for an attempt at good graphics is the thing that is slowly killing the franchise.
Asking Pokemon to focus more on graphics instead of gameplay and the Pokemon is like asking Burger King to focus on Burritos more than Burgers. It's just stupid, because what good are graphics when the gameplay is complete dogshit and the game isn't fun? That and graphics clearly isn't gamefreaks strongsuit.
I would unironically have a game with not so good graphics but great gameplay. Hotline Miami, Dead Cells, Undertale/Deltarune, Megaman 9/10, any of the Mother games, the old Disgaea games, Minecraft, etc.
Of course that's not to say those games looked like shit or had shitty art styles. But all of them are games that focused more on enjoyable gameplay experience than graphics and ended up being enjoyable because of that. If Pokemon went down that route maybe we wouldn't have cut Pokemon and cut features, or have the switch damn near exploding due to high polygon models, and maybe we wouldn't have shit games. In other words quantity over quality.
God I miss Shigeki Morimoto, and Takao Unno.
