Hope this interaction doesn't lead to any kind of fallout between us.

That's just fucking Palworld.

>like that
Like what? That looks like sword shield

I was so fucking hyped for Oblivion after Morrowind. I thought all the "Oblivion sucks" people were just the usual /v/ contrarians but holy fuck does it suck. Skyrim was a little better but still complete dogshit compared to Daggerfall, Morrowind and Battlespire.

Why does Pokemon not have graphics, map size and exploration of at least that caliber? A random grifter company should not be able to outperform or even equal them in any aspect. Something about that seems off, doesn't it?
>>724279486
Sword and Shield do not look like that. They may look like the Wii version of that though.
>>724279323
I feel like these games become more shallow with each passing title. That applies to Fallout as well. It's hard to get excited for TES6 or F5 as a result. Starfield was also a joke though it was a first entry.
>>724279240
Unfortunately so.

>>724279087
Even in their fantasies pokegoyim have to involve anti-soul gas
>>
>>724280096
hardware and engine limit could cause that.
also the devs not bothering to improve on it too but that's an other story.

>I feel like these games become more shallow with each passing title.
This is absolutely true; even in late-stage Interplay era, Fallout was on a downward spiral.
I can't really blame anything much other than money, greed or not. But what I can't explain why it feels like everyone is always holding back when making a new, grand RPG that's meant to rival the classics. Maybe I'm just cynical, old, and not paying as much attention anymore.

>>724280096
Because the budget for ZA is 13 million which I guess is low, even for pokemon, and the hardware it's made for is the weakest.

pokemon is shit because gamefreak has learned and confirmed that they do not have to try. They can shit out a half-finished beta and it will sell 20 million copies on brand recognition alone.
>>
>>724279087
Might be good if it was a souls like and looked like that. When the battle starts you take control of Pikachu and can dodge roll and do cool attacks and shit.

Otherwise it's a waste of time having good visuals and boring turn based combat and 90% of your screen obstructed by clunky menus like all pokemon games have
>>
>>724279087
Like empty open world slop?
>>
>>724279447
But palworlds graphics are shit and is a unity slop asset flip
>>
>>724282715
summon gameplay has evolved drastically over the decades while gamefreak has sworn blind that turn based barely animated models is the way the series needs to be. there have even been instances of the player character also engaging in combat with enemies alongside their summons but just standing about acting like the trainer is doing anything meaningful to the gameplay is a permanent pillar of the pokemon IP
>>
>>724279087
unfortunately the pokemon company knows it can get away with mediocre and fans will still pay top dollar for it
>>
>>724279087
this is literally actually being worked on right now under the name project Gaia. theres even a fucking screenshot of it.
>>
>>724279087
I remember when everyone's big idea for "fixing" Pokemon was
>dude the next pokemon game needs to have EVERY region, then it'll be good
Everyone can sense that the series has gone to shit but people seem to have so little conscious idea as to specifically why.

>runs for 3 minutes doing nothing

>>724279087
NINTENDO!!!

>>724279087
re darkside chronicles if it were dynamic fixed cam like outbreak files
some guy made it into that with shitty unreal engine and got sued
he cancelled for an early access of re2 rmk hope that was worth cuz id rather play the UE asset flip shitsoup
