>>58106720>What happened to proper Pokémon spinoffs? This is just sadThird parties don’t get a big enough of the cut. It usually goes like this
>third party licenses the property>get micromanaged to hell and back from Gamefreak (traditionally this was Masuda’s job) and TPC, Creatures too for “design fidelity” >licensing fees and royalties are so insanely high (going to their respective owners), third party making said game barely makes anything in net income>third party calls it quits and doesn’t work on their games ever againMost notable is Hal, Genius Sonority, and now SpikeChun as of late. Bamco can follow suit if they haven’t already but knowing them, they always give projects like this to new recruits who barely have any experience so this won’t happen; and they would be glad to work on more games just for goodwill for the kind of shit they’re pulling with their other titles that pisses off their own fans. Most of the people who made Pokken were complete newbies that were just hired and it was their first ever project, guess what they led next which ultimately led to their shame? Yes, the latest Tekken game
