I don't entirely think that's true, by that logic SWSH wouldn't have had much work done until Let's Go was done. Whereas we know Max Raid Battles were developed at the same time Game Freak were helping Niantic with Raid Battles back in late 2016/early 2017.
Yes, Nintendo did that in one example, but no developer mentions every problem they've had, every bit of development progress. That's not how the industry works
I was under the impression that Let's Go was only being worked on by a relatively small team, shot in the dark here, maybe 1/3 of GF, so you'd have 2/3 of GF working on SwSh after Ultra SuMo, but before the end of Let's go.
The developers have said they had to redo models. We've been trying to work out what specifically they meant about that since the wireframes seem similar and the logical conclusion from talking to developers is that the animation rigs broke and they had to remake them and reimplant the animations on them and test, which takes a lot of time.
Probably because they knew something would inevitably break and not be an easy fix, that could be why it almost happened with Sun & Moon as Sun & Moon is a different engine to XY and so it could have happened there but been able to be fixed by a tool
Or me having discussed things with multiple developers and finding out how things are
oh
I want the games to release just so people can datamine it to see the number of reused animations vs actual new ones for returning Pokemon
Just like they cut customization and amie? 🤔I'm all for voicing disappointment and questioning developer intentions.
But this is just reaching and looking for reasons to be stuck in a loop of unsatisfaction.
People are acting like nobody wants every single Pokemon ever made to be in the game. Ideally, I'm pretty sure we'd all like that...
At some point, you just kind of have to get over the fact that many different things are at play here and I think people like the ones on Reddit making these threads are not really making the moves to get over the situation. Not sure if there is any way to send GF a direct fan letter but I think they should do something to get their voices heard and move on with it.
No one here wakes up hoping for GF to just cut Pokemon and great features. For all we know this can end up a fantastic Pokemon game nonetheless. But people will just lock in on what is missing or what they think it should be.
When it comes to GF, this is no surprise. This has always been their MO.
Amie gave us some amazing memes and gifs on par with the Luigi MK8 stare (maybe not as popular).
But I really like this evolution of it. Camp could be the next step for the BoTW scale Pokemon game ERA dreams about.
Just kidding, GF will probably cut this in the next game :lol.
DistantKingdom yet again. I wonder if there's anything he does on his youtube other than negativity. His first video did well due to posting on Reddit and the algorithm and so practically every video since has been harping on the same negativity in order to get views. I remember when he tried to discredit me in one using Google Translate to say professional translations I had done were wrong. He's cropped that bit out now.
Yeah that must be it, nothing to do with how many animations there are and how long it takes to re-implement and properly test, but sure.
Yeah it's hard to want to engage with that subreddit community when they hold up toxic shitheads. The fact the mods there pinned that misinformation post is disappointing.
I don't think they fit battles very well, they're peaceful and cute. Nobody wants to attack a cute sleeping RockruffWhat bothers me is that they don't re-use these Amie/Refresh/Camp animations in the actual battles. You've got a set of Sleeping Animations for Amie, yet they never see use in battles when your pokemon is set to sleep.
Yes I know not every pokemon has their animations, but you could use them for those that do.
Yea, the trainer is much better than the creepy smile in Gen 7.
That's exactly it, why can't they added these expressive animations into battles from the mini games, the battles are pretty static, not literally, but you get my point, it can be more expressive.What bothers me is that they don't re-use these Amie/Refresh/Camp animations in the actual battles.

This has always been my annoyance. I've said it before, but battles are seen by 100% of players, while these side features by a much smaller subset, so when they prioritize their efforts on them it irks me a bit
yo is this a Pokemon that's curled itself into a ball
Customization and camping are improved versions of features introduced and kept since XY.
I love her, but I'm willing to let all older legendaries/mythical pokemon die if that means the Genies turn into dust.This would be one Magearna from Pokemon Sun and Moon (and Ultra Sun and Moon)
It's wait and see if it will be in Sword and Shield.
I grew to love the little weirdo, with her dead eyes and her bed sniffing
