There's this thing most companies have called an "Asset Library".
GF should have YEARS of assets and animations built up.

Get out of here with that. I mean people can't be disappointed by what they saw? This is a goddamn discussion forum this is what happens if you can't handle the heat it time you leave the kitchen
Exactly. It's more exciting to see them in the world. There's so much more they could do with that system too. Like some Pokemon could try to run away from you and you have to chase them down, or you would need to leave bait to distract them. Or some would be aggressive and try to get the jump on you. Same 'surprise' factor, but you could avoid the confrontation if you're quick. Some pokemon could still also only be found by looking for shaking grass and sneaking up on them. But straight up going back to randoms is a massive step back from LG. Having to slog through endless encounter transitions to get a chance for something is just not fun anymore.
You mean ones they have animated numerous times and don't start from scratch?
ERA: LGP sucks! I want a real core Pokemon game like Sun and Moon! Stop changing my pokemon!
Nintendo: Ok here you go.
ERA: THIS GAME SUCKS TOO!
Never change.
I think this looks great. I like the art style and well...that's about all we can really say, we saw all of like 3 minutes of in game footage and they clearly weren't going to spill the beans on any big new additions or details about battle systems, etc in a short reveal trailer. This game is still like 9 months away, there will be a lot more to learn.

This leak from the 21st just got a lot more interesting
OMG AT THE ARMORED CHARIZARD

I mean it's just your next iteration of Pokémon really. It's the next step from Sun and Moon on an HD console. Nothing so far is showing they're doing anything really different. Ohmori said they're going to try some new stuff so we'll see.
I would but I'm not talking about the graphics I'm talking about the approach to camera and level design. If I post screenshots you will nit-pick every different detail when the point is a broad stroke one.
It doesn't look like something that couldn't run on the Gamecube excluding the graphics, is the point.
They do
It's those Pokemon models and animations that you hate. They've been using them since XY
This is literally the first thread about the new game, that shit got old fast because some users kept entering EVERY SINGLE Let's Go thread complaining about the same thing, even when the thread wasn't even about whatever topic they decided to complain about. Hardly the same situation at all, but hey it's best to try and justify shitting up threads, right?
Game Freak is reusing models they created several years ago, brings in a ton of money, and has unused running/walking animations for all of their Pokémon models.
This isn't a case of lacking resources.
Looks like something you'd see on a kid's menu.tbf Vanilluxe is very cute & creative (Change My Mind)
Having said that, the later gens have some of my favorite designs, so dismissing those games is silly. I like the new starters as well, pretty eager to see what their final evolutions will look like.
Overall the game looks pretty nice, but I can't help but feel a little disappointed with the lack of a full 3D movable camera and return of random battles. Guess we'll have to wait longer for a "proper" next-gen Pokémon game.
Scottish folklore has a couple of elements from Scandinavia, but it's overwhelmingly Gaelic.
Hopefully we'll see later footage which takes more advantage of Switch hardware.
Grass monkey dude is totes adorable though.

Maybe people want a game that looks like it was made this generation or hell the generation before?
It would be a shame if we can't explore the borders of the map...
Posting a PS4 game is disingenuous as fuck. Then again this thread is filled with posts like thisi'mma just leave these here again
I'm hoping they just removed NPCs for trailer reasons and the released game will be properly populated
God damn does this game ever look good. I had to contain myself at work when watching the direct. Its everything I've wanted so far, just need to see more lol.
This is my first time following a completely new Pokemon game being announcement and... wow people here got me scared.
Didn't know things were this bad.
The ground textures are my biggest problems with the reveal. They look really bad and take the imersion away.
I don't like this mon HOWEVER no one needs to change your mind. It's all opinions in the end and we should all respect each other's views.tbf Vanilluxe is very cute & creative (Change My Mind)
Yes but because GameFreak programmed terrible AI into the wild Pokemon apparently that means they were a bad idea. Instead of keeping visible Pokemon and actually not having them run into walls, just take them away completely :/
i would say it looks more like an evolution (no pun intended) of the S/M art style. if people are say this i amused to be early footage looks like an upscale S/M are clearly blindYeah, I have. Did you watch the trailer? This is the outside of the house in SuMo
And in Sword and Shield
The way they appear in Let's go sucks though. You want that choice in what you engage with but that kills any sort of surprise for me, unless they implemented a silhouette model.
Let's Go seems cleaner in many ways.
Lets Go isn't even ambitious in scope
They went very simple
If they iterated and pushed harder I wonder what they could come up with.
No question the Art Design is superior in Sword and Shield but thats by design. I don't think they had any intention of pushing the design envelope of Lets Go since it was supposed to be a remake of Red/Blue and callback to the tile design of the originals
There is ... potential that needs to be tapped going forward. I can see it but I am HOPING Game Freak does as well
