Cause they have to rig and animate all those models......oh right they cut most pokemon....

I think Sword and Shield might finally push me to hack my Switch. I want to play them and check out the wild area, but I don't want to give GameFreak money. I was going to give them a pass for the low effort graphics, but culling Pokemon is just going too far.

I haven't played a Pokemon game since the GB era, can someone explain this franchise to me? Based on money drawn they should have budgets and teams on the level of Mario, Zelda, GTA, etc. but for some reason they always look and play like budget titles made by 50 people. Why is this the case?

Even Fire Emblem is looking better than this now. It's honestly astounding how shit Gen 8 is looking.

Here's hope Pokemon works. You buy 20 million copies. 90% of that money goes into the coffers. 9% goes into licensing fees, funding other Pokemon spin offs, the card game, non game related costs, investing, etc. 1% goes to making the next Pokemon game.

And even if Game Freak spent more money on making a Pokemon game, they're a bad studio. It would just be wasted. But they don't need to spend more, because the fans are blind sheep who buy any brick they shit out.

Honestly its brilliant, just make make a low budget video game with a skeleton crew of 150 people. In turn that sells billions in merchandise. The profit margin is so high why would they ever give it a budget of more than 10 Million? The game is already expected up to 15 million copies regardless of quality because their audience is braindead retards that will buy anything with our logo.

going to the new Yacht I imagine
>captcha is boats
thanks Yea Forums, very cool

Game Freak is very bad at 3D. Everything looks de saturated with highlights slapped on it. There's no color. The animations suck. Game Freak has been using the same formula for decades. However, now they've gotten especially lazy. I think in X&Y and S&M combined there was about 150 new Pokemon? These games worked best in the pixel format on handhelds, as seen by the supreme examples of their ability, Platinum, B&W/B&W2, and HGSS. Also for every new region they cut out cool features and then add new ones, basically making them take one step forward and two back.

Didn't an user say that Gamefreak is getting tired of making Pokemon games? If that's true they might be focusing on stuff like Town more.

Good. They should hand Pokemon development over to Nintendo.

pokemon has made over 90 billion dollars over the years, so pretty high

They were also bad at 2D. And programming. And gameplay. And basically everything. They needed help just to get the first two games done. And every game since has gotten worse.

Why does Ohmori always looks like a soulless robot?

KEK

Oh yes, it costs eleventy bajillion dollars to put an obnoxious amount of bloom lighting in a game, the only thing that makes a game look good. How dare Nintendo cheap out like this.

Those people are stupid.

No one should aspire to be Level 5.

So this is that console pokemon game we've been waiting so long for huh?

just put it on a ps4 or xbox already, and make gramfreak higher 100 more people, who actually know how to use a computer.

It is they proudly showed it off during E3 when they were chased down by a high level Machoke

>less than 50k on hasthags
>less than 20k on youtube
Yeah..."rising"

If they were trying to be like Level 5, then at least the graphics would look good. Level 5 is a studio where everything sucks but the graphics. With Game Freak, everything sucks.

What's so stupid is, Pokemon fans don't want radical change. They'll play the same gameplay and content every game. They just need to make it look a little closer to the anime each time. But they can't even do that. Even when a series like Dragon Quest or Dark Cloud did it three gens ago. All Pokemon needs to do is spend 90% of its budget on graphics to make it look like the anime. And they can't even get that right.

>All Pokemon needs to do is spend 90% of its budget on graphics
yikes user. it's like you want a pokemon game with only 50 available pokemon total just as long as it looks good.

But now we get like 150 pokemon and graphics with the 10%. The 90% goes on lunches and personal funds.

>only making a limited amount of pokemon
>Not animating all of them
>3D open world design that's far behind even GameCube era games

Ok so what are they doing with this game?

I didn't say that's what I want. I said that's what the fans want. And they do. They only use a handful of the Pokemon that get added each game anyway.

Also, the budget for a Pokemon game isn't going into developing ideas for new Pokemon. That's done by a handful of artists in pre production. One of the cheapest things is adding new Pokemon. The cost comes from the 500 artists they hire to render the Pokemon and world.

Ending the franchise.

There’s a lot of people talking shit about GameFreak in this thread but I guarantee that none of them have made a game, and if they have, it was nowhere near even a 1000th of the scale of mainline Pokemon. GameFreak isn’t being lazy, they aren’t slacking, they are trying to make the game and get it out in a reasonable time. Relax. You’ll buy it anyway cause you know this to be true.

>”B-B-BUT POKEMON IS THE BIGGEST GROSSING FRANCHISE OF ALL TIME!!! THEY SHOULD BE ABLE T-“

Shhh. I didn’t know that not only are you a master game dev, but you’re also now a world class business man that knows everything about a company’s operations at a glance! Oh wait, you aren’t. You don’t know shit, unless you’re a higher up at GF you can’t claim anything. Also, holding companies to unreasonable standards and then getting disappointed they didn’t attain them is retarded.

>”B-BUT ITS NOT UNREASONABLE!!!”

Considering they can’t do it without delaying the game, clearly it is.

>”W-WELL MAYBE IF THEY DIDN’T WASTE MONEY ON DYNAMAX AND THE RAIDS THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO PUT IN ALL THE POKÉMON!”

Ah yes, how DARE GameFreak put dev time into innovative and interesting new content and concepts. I’d much rather see shit I’ve already seen instead of have them try new ideas. Yup.

If you’ve ever needed proof that the Pokémon fan base is comprised exclusively of children and entitled manbabbies, look no further than Yea Forums.

Masuda literally said they are selectively choosing only pokemon that fit the setting to appear in the game and that others will be unavailable. That poster is wrong.

It also means they can force people to pay up if they want their pokemon back, it's dirty as fuck, also that bit about Leon is messed up, no wonder they showed him off early, hes a fucking fraud

can someone explain to me why they can't transfer pokemon from the bank? Isn't that why they made it so they could future proof any poketransfers?

No you can't we literally see the band materialize on Gloria's wrist in the gym battle, she nor Victor have it on in the field like the wild lands unless I missed a video

Cutting out all the pokemon goes against their "catch it all" purpose and removes a lot from the game. It might be excusable if they used the fact that they have less pokemon to their advantage, with unique animations and interactions. However, they don't. It looks about as shit as Sun & Moon in the graphics department, despite being a more powerful console. It also runs terribly.
Nice b8 btw, got me to reply.

>You'll but it anyway
I won't and if you weren't dyslexic you'd have read hundreds of posts saying this isn't acceptable for one of the most commercially successful franchises in the world.

They could have chosen to make a great looking game. They chose not to because they know they have useful retards like yourself who will lick up anything they throw on the floor. Frankly it's no difference than loot boxes or day 1 DLC. It's purposely choosing not to make the highest quality product because they want to make more money.

It's the same as mark Zuckerberg giving 1,000 to charity and saying "he's doing his best, he's giving as much as he can afford" when that's not the case, it's just a ruse.

This is some sort of blasphemy, I'm sure.

Did you forget about Raid Battles against Dynapokemon? Those are in the *wild area*

During those raids one lucky player gets to dynamax too

due new gamefreak's policy in newer games only a bunch of pokemon are gonna be selected according to the region's themathic

so if you wanna get a specific non galar pokemon you're forced to buy the new game.

The excuse is they want to select only pokemon that fit the theme and setting of the region.
The real reason is obviously they're too fucking lazy to add animations and make new textures for 800 pokemon.

they literally said they rushed they game and people are still buying it. I want to commit suicide

Thank god charizard was lucky enough to be thematically appropriate again!

I recall that pretty much every mainline Pokemon game, especially now with tools like the Pokemon bank, had the desire to collect in mind. They also used this to their advantage to sell alternative versions of the game to make more money, but it was there through trading at least.
