If Gamefreak were actual artists worth a damn they'd resent this "anything we make is a genius masterpiece" norm they exist in, but since Pokemon is nothing but a machine for money they can afford not giving a fuck and just doing whatever

I really couldn't care less about the goofy mega or the shit looking game.
As far as Pokémon goes, I love it for all the porn.
So keep on keeping on.

I think for whatever reason the West in general struggles with accepting that fiction isn’t judged on how it approximates reality, I see so many Pokefags obsessed with ecology and shit that get incensed over humanoid designs because “how would it live in the wild”
>>
>>723799757
Complaining is fine, but sometimes you get the impression people really forgot how to enjoy things.
Play some Pokémon, play some Palworld, play some Digimon.
Point out the flaws sure, but don't forget to have fun.
That includes jacking it to the cute critters too.
>>
>>723799757
Yeah.
People seem to take more "enjoyment" from complaining, bating, and turning everything into a console war than actually talking about the things they are enjoying in video games.
It's always been a thing to some extent, but it really feels like that each year /v/ becomes more cynical.

Thats what I mean you cant say positive things without getting pushback or being called a shill unless the game is 20 years old and so nu /v/ hasnt played it

Exactly.
The meme about porn threads being more civilized is just half a joke.
Palworld threads for example sometimes are really fun, with people posting porn and actually discussing the game in equal measure, until somebody comes along and starts flinging shit out of nowhere after some 100 messages.

Who are you trying to impress with those 10 threads per hours????
>>
>>723799793
Most original Pokémon were inspired by animals and created in a way that the player could see them existing in nature. Pokémon like Voltorb and Grimer still had some logic to them. Voltorb was theorized to be created from a Pokeball exposed to something and Grimer is toxic sludge exposed to radiation. So even though they aren't animals they are still monsters.

>>723799881
Nothing wrong with complaining if it is productive. Pokémon has been on a very noticeably downslide with the advent of it going 3D. Remember when Pokémon games were 60 fps all the way throughout in Gen. III?

Was it Kochikame? That's hardly obscure for Japan, it's one of the best selling mangas of all time and ran for 40 years or so. It's like saying Garfield is obscure, even if you're a kid and it's not you're favorite you're aware of it because it stuck around enough to be in the public consciousness. I don't think he's right but I can see the resemblance, I immediately knew what you were talking about.

Probably not here no , but I'm pretty sure gamefreak would have to reconsider their approach to Pokemon games if they just received 20% of the criticism but from Japanese people instead and criticism has no downsides, you'll always end up with a better product by the end and with more effort to satisfy the needs of the customers but if we just ignore every problem and decide to be wimsy and act like everything is fine because meme pokemon or ass then gamefreak just gets away with releasing effortless slop, all they have to do is just cover it up with ass and meme references

I was more talking about Pokemon in general.
>>
>>723797269
Starmie would be ok if it was the ONLY meme design and the rest were all solid. That'd be fine and just the devs having some fun. But then you have Victreebel or Meganium or Skarmory or both Raichus, and it stops being "devs were just having fun" and becomes "they genuinely didn't want to do this shit and likely generated multiple designs using AI".
That's just looking at designs btw, if you look at the game as a whole it's downright shocking that anyone believes this should be a full-price game and not some bonus disc content.
>>
>>723798447
I mean I think saying that it probably drew inspiration from Kochikame isn't unreasonable.

You'll understand once you're 30+. Tokusatsu filters out a huge void range between its "intended" target audience and its secondary target audience, and you just need to see enough bullshit and injustice in your daily life to realize that heroes clad in funny suits fighting for justice is exactly as cool as your younger self would have thought it was.
Might help to get into some of the more recent seasons of Ultraman and Kamen Rider with the giga kino bollywood-tier special and visual effects. It all seems absurd but somehow it's exactly what the jaded soul needs once you reawaken to its glory.

Westerners grow into being subservient fans while still having the capacity to be vocal about things they strongly oppose, be it for or against their product worship.

I think the idea behind the mega is fine, but they should've put more work into it. Just stretching the bottom two arms is really fucking lazy.
I would've had the 5 main arms split and branch in order to create definition in its shape and at least make it look more differently.

Personally, I think all the megas look a little goofy on purpose not as some "society has fallen" psyop, but Game Freak (and TPCi) wanting to not overshadow the branding of certain iconic mons. We saw evidence of that in the big internal document leaks. They don't want to make a spinoff version, like shinies, too much cooler than the regular designs because it makes merchandising more difficult. Certain pokemon are meant to be iconic enough that out of touch grandparents see them and know them, so they are more likely to buy the T-shirt or whatever because they say, "Oh, little Timmy likes Pokemon and that looks like 'Starbee' or whatever it's called. I'll buy him this shirt."

From the docs, we sae that this applies doubly to all gen 1 mons. They get megas and stuff, but they never want them to be "too cool".

Can't speak for Chinks much, but Steam is the realm of Japanese autists, so they're naturally going to be more vile than the random normies that play pokemon and gacha but not much else.

Kochikame is literally one of the most popular works to come out of Weekly Shounen Jump in Japan.
Like, of the top highest selling manga, it is the first series on the list to essentially only have a presence exclusively in Japan, and it's not low, it's the 9th best selling manga of all time, beating out Attack on Titan, Bleach, and JoJo.

It is basically the comedy series in Japan. Nothing else is as relevant as Kochikame was when it was running (and it only ended 9 years ago)..
>>
>>723810442
Because they are.
The majority of /m/fags are in their 20s. That's why they primarily congregate and post on twitter.

>It is basically the comedy series in Japan
not shin chan?
>>
>>723812232
Both look like shit. Palworld is garbage propped up by furfags. Pokemon is also garbage propped up by normies, cattle, and furfags
>>
>>723812753
While it was active, I'd honestly say Kochikame was more notable as a comedy series.
Shin-chan was second to it, but it always occupied the hazy area where you'd see works like Nintama or Oishinbo.
>>
>>723812753
If you want analogies, think of Sazae San as Simpsons, Kochikame as Family Guy and Shin Chan as American Dad.
