I really didn't much care for the art direction.
I found XY to be the perfect compromise between over-world 3D models, and in-battle portraits.
The chibi models weren't a head to body ratio of 1:1, so you could have more detail, but they were still compact enough to make the world feel big.

In general, I prefer sprites. Pokemon, trainers, all of it. But I might be in a minority. S/M moved onto full 3D models, but the art direction was still good.
SwSh had... similar art direction? But then the 3D models for SV feel like, i don't know, dolls? They're a bit uncanny.
I'll get shit on for praising XY for ANYTHING, but I liked it's post-sprite compromise, and I think we should go back.

Ikr. Towns used to be so big back then and full of things to do. Smh my head GameFreak.

the music is good! i had not been feeling the tracks in recent games until this and legends arceus.

I can't tell if this place is supposed to look like a rusty pitstop for the open world or if it's just bad graphics.

if that was your home you'd have to sleep outside because you can't go in any of the houses

I agree with you on everything except for maybe preferring sprites for everything.
I think that the 3D models of Pokémon as they're presented in XY and SM, with the outlines rendering along the edges of shapes in the right spots, makes them look like a great blend of "Sugimori drawn art style" and "actual 3D model that you can believe is letting you rub its head and doing stuff in the world."

you know the post was praising the 3D model you posted rigth?

I fucking hate the XY and SM models, they improved them so much in SV with some of them having better posing and actual textures on them, instead of looking like dull plastic statues

SV was a mistake

For me is Levincia, though I like Cascafarra's bgm. Makes me think about Sinnoh...

and some of them got completelly new models like CHARIZARD, Venusaur, Mewtwo and others.
I really wonder if the brainlet responses here are because most of the people are underage.

ESL here
This "didn't care much for" thing is a contrived way to say you didn't like something or is it literally that you don't care (aka neither like nor dislike it)?

I got used to the 3D models, and they're by no means bad. But in order to create the Pokemon equivalent of a "T-Pose" for a neutral stance, A lot of older pokemon lost the benefit of being artistically composed as a 2D sprite.
Quagsire immediately comes to mind. Ampharos too.

For most pokemon with more complex designs, I don't think it necessarily matters. But look at pic related and tell me that the best one is Gen 6. I mean if you genuinely feel that way, I'll respect your opinion, but ultimately disagree.
Sprites have art direction that adds life to simpler designs.

I don't necessarily think we need to go back to sprites, but maybe having more dynamic neutral poses on the models? I just like sprites because I'm a nostalgiafag. Sprites are comfy to me.

Is there a proper order to tackle the objectives? I started playing the game in a completionist manner likeall the other games before and I feel like I am making a huge mistake because it is so absolutely boring and devoid of any meaning or interest to go about catching every pokemon when there are dozens in every route and so many teras to fight and items to pickup and so on. But everything is so boring and copypasted Instead I think I should just focus on the objectives, but even those have no order to them so I may just end up overleveld and spoil even the little interest those have. I did the bug gym now, I presume the rock titan is next. But what after? Also should I even bother to fight the trainers? I fear I will be wasting my time since the devs didn't even bother to make them appraoch you to battle.

Defeating a certain number of trainers in an area will reward you with items from a Pokémon League representative at the Pokémon Center. Every item rewarded can be obtained through other means, although some of those are gated by story progression. My recommendations are Eviolite at South Area 5 and Amulet Coin at Medali/West Area 3.
>I fear I will be wasting my time.
You will be because that's all SV does.

don't worry you're expressing your opinion without calling people who like other generations faggot jew trannies so nobody's going to think you're yawnfag
also, i agree, i liked XY's visual direction quite a bit, my only gripe being most NPCs, even gym leaders and such, were only jpegs in fights
