Did they reveal the extent of the cuts? No, not in the slightest. There's no excuse for not being transparent in the scope of the cuts. They didn't have to give a full list of every Pokemon in the game, but they easily could have revealed generally the total count of Pokemon included (e.g. "Over X Pokemon to catch!").
My one hope is that this causes the game development to slow the fuck down. We don't need a Pokemon game every year or even every two years. Make it a bigger deal with much longer dev times and compelling spinoff/side games to fill in the gaps.
Can only do that if they keep Pokemon Bank running until they're back in a new game.
Either that or establish multiple full sized teams so a small studio isn't being split between a bunch of projects at once. Things would go a lot more smoothly if they had 2 teams of 300 each.
Any kind of break would be optimal for Gamefreak regarding the schedule for these games. I really wish the series had a longer dev time with spinoffs from other developers trying out stuff with the IP. Colosseum/XD, Myster Dungeon, Pokken, etc...
There's likely a major lesson in listening more closely to your customers that's getting lost in all the bullshit swirling around right now.
Ah so it does. If that's the case then I can see the concerns with keeping a Pokemon in the 3DS games for too long.
You shouldn't feel like a shill. I mean people spent $60 on super mario party and that is way more disgraceful, yet there isn't some big protest against it like this.
On top of this, I'm wondering if they even have enough time to learn new dev tools. I new Pokemon game a year that demands close to 100 new monsters is an insane strategy.
It has 4 maps total, and combined equal about the size of one map from almost any of the first 10 games before it. Plus the maps themselves are just not good, and there wasn't any dlc. And no online.
That quote makes me really sad. The developers shouldn't be down. If the games need a shake up that should come from the top. Every Pokemon game I've played has been high quality, just very conservative and a little outdated.
just an unfun game
It was praised literally because no car "and classic gameplay" even though one pd the four boards is the 3ds board style...so only 3. I guess people that never played old ones or don't remember them.
We are blaming western fans for something that is happening in Japan now... good grief.
LM 3 is great but Pokemon Sword and Shield will have WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more content.
Pokémon is massive with kids still. Not as big as fortnite but big
Is the frustration only a western thing? How have folks in Japan taken to the National Dex issue?
It varies, 2ch, like 4chan are livid. With some rational people in the mix over there surprisingly. On Twitter, it's not as bad from what I saw, though even some went after Masuda for apparently being cruel for thanking someone over their Bayleef nail art.
This game is ripe for DLC
God it's so bad. Mario Party 3 is so good. That Waluigi board is amazingIt has 4 maps total, and combined equal about the size of one map from almost any of the first 10 games before it. Plus the maps themselves are just not good, and there wasn't any dlc. And no online.
Oh dear god. What the heck is with Nintendo and it's spin-off's recently? First Mario Tennis WiiU, and now then that? Shesh, Kamek's Tower barely looks like a map!It has 4 maps total, and combined equal about the size of one map from almost any of the first 10 games before it. Plus the maps themselves are just not good, and there wasn't any dlc. And no online.
