>It's been 11 months since the last (and only) trailer on this game

What the actual fuck is going on at GameFreak HQ? Are they OK?
>>
They're taking their time because they know it's up to Chadlos to save the franchise for a second time
>>
They took a gao year Simon. TRhat means they weren't going to talk about their series further, after remarking their game would release in 2025. It's your inability to see "2025" as anything but "January 1st 2025" and EXPECTING news sooner than Pokémon day '25 that's led us here. Go find something to do with your life beyond Pokémon.

Nintendo has gone full retard by pushing back their new console that is outdated by 2018 standards.
>>
>>57210416
I think it was a teaser more than trailer they didn't showcase anything in the game just a bunch or concepts merged to make a short video.

What ever happened to surprises?

They're taking their time so that it's only going to release one year too early instead of three.
>>
It was just an announcement you fags.
>>
>>57210416
New info soon.
>>
>>57213096
When is soon?

>>57210416
They finished the game over a year ago by porting the XY map into PLA and adding a few reskins. They've been spending the rest of their time jerking it to pokeporn created by the AI tools they are using to generate their nu-mon designs nowadays.
>>
>>57210416
>Are they OK?
i hope not. lazy corporations like gamefreak don't deserve good things. i hope PLZA never comes out. it would be a shit game that would further ruin this franchise
>>
>>57214645
February 27th, duh.
>>
>>57210506
It was an a mini expansion, not a full expansion
>>
>>57210416
Imagine if the game looks, runs and is shit after all this time they've taken. And after calling it an ambitious project. Just inagine.....

Either way i feel like this is their most unusual release EVER so i'd bet this game will turn out either one of fanbases favourites or one of the most hated
>>
>>57210416
They panicked and announced this purely because Palworld's release&success spooked them.
Now they are probably really fucking annoyed to have cornered themselves into actually making it.
>>
The pressure is on them after the mess that was SV launch. All the bugs and glitches were viral for like the first two weeks it was a laughing stock.
>>
>>57214741
It could be cross-gen and """optimized""" for Switch 2, that would give them an excuse for it looking and running like garbage on Switch.
>>
>>57214758
>All the bugs and glitches were viral for like the first two weeks it was a laughing stock
good. GayFreak is one of the laziest companies on earth and they should be ridiculed 24/7
>>
>>57214758
>for like the first two weeks it was a laughing stock.
Anon, rebooting the game to clear up the memory leaks is *still* part of the speedrunning route.
And one of the two version is unusable solely because its box legendary create so much additional lag.
Yeah it's speedtrannism, but the game is still a laughing stock in the bug&glitch category - not just two weeks after release.

Give GF a console 2 times more powerful and they will just optimize 3 times less.
It's kind of a general trend in the industry nowadays, but GF has been doing it for 2 decades now and are the master in this category.
It might save S/V, but it won't save the game designed from the beginning for the Switch 2.
>>
>>57214778
>speedtrannism
I don't understand why people who just want to play the game with a twist that makes it more challenging get ridiculed
same happens when scoring is brought up for touhou games

I would take what Arceus looks like upscaled just with less obvious repeated textures on rock walls. Low standards, but SV just looked that bad.
>>
>>57214791
For speedrunning it's because public speedrunning events are utterly *infested* with troons, for some reason.
>>
>>57214798
My main problem with how Arceus look isn't even the "why are your environments barely better than a N64 game" aspect, it's the weird pastel palette (that still manage to be gaudy) and the absolute dogshit lighting.
The art director deserve to be shot, with shotgun shells loaded with barbed wire & salt.

The cause of that epidemic is lack of appropriate mental healthcare for young men, constant extreme negative messaging about men, masculinity and male sexuality in our culture, an increase in childhood adversity like fatherlessness and divorce.

You will see the epidemic of self-hatred and traumatic identity dissociation in any space frequented by nerds and other people on the social periphery. They're most vulnerable to that shit.
>>
>>57214823
They made a stylistic choice to go along with the earlier chronological setting. That's why the title screen's done in the style of inkbrush calligraphy, because that was the dominant writing style 100 years ago in Japan.
>>
>>57214836
That could be an excuse if it at least gave the game some actual visual flair, like Okami or Valkyria Chronicles did.
Arceus literally look like someone's first Unity project, where they had no idea how to configure lights, randomly found the Color Balance tab once, toyed with all the sliders, and could never remember where it was afterward so they left it like that.

Wow, difference in aiming a game at kids vs aiming a game at teens to adults - you need to try when not relying on kids to be the bulk of sales.
Sounds like your issue is they pitch at kids instead of teens like you because again, 15m sales generated, 0 fucks given abnout the gwaffix like terminally online chuds want to try and force an issue. Real talk, anby aldult with half a brain knows it's not changing and either fucked off long ago or are like me and look beyond the immediate presentation to buy into the game world. If you can't do either, you're not going to get what you used to out this bullshit.
>>
>>57210506
This, Pokemon has enough going on now to where we don't need games coming out. Even their anime stuff has broken away from the old tradition.
>>
>>57214802
I simply think it's cool that there's people who are skilled enough to beat games in small timeframes and I try not to let stuff like what their sexuality is stop me from admiring their accomplishments. I don't blame people for disliking them and even I do too to some extent, but I also feel like there's no point in complaining about them anymore. yeah, it's sad that some people want to mutilate themselves, but what am I supposed to do about it? I feel like there's nothing that can be done at this point. it's easier to just live and let live

>difference in aiming a game at kids vs aiming a game at teens to adults
Oh please. Most of Nintendo's standard line-up is targeted at kids, no matter how hard their respective fans delude themselves.
Pokémon is the only one constantly plagued with those issues.

>15m sales generated, 0 fucks given abnout the gwaffix like terminally online chuds want to try and force an issue
Careful.
"It sold well so you are wrong for not liking it" is a very slippery hill to die on when Palworld is nearby.

>spoiler
That, I agree. It just piss me off that the best monstercatching setting is trapped between GF's fat retarded hands.
>>
>>57210416
Is there a chance that a trailer wont be shown at Pokemon Day? I guess fans would eat TPC and GF alive but if this game is somehow tied to Switch 2 (like released on both consoles) they might wait for Switch 2 reveal...

Also funny how this game has become final nail in Khu's credibility coffin

They're tying to teach Zoomies some patience. Admirable, really.
>>
>>57214791
Cos it's for gay retards who don't have jobs and don't contribute to society. Speedrunning is like being a brony or being into sonic
>>
>>57214984
>don't have jobs and don't contribute to society
that sounds based
>>
>>57214785
>company made up of Japanese people, a race of people known for the reticence with adapting to modern working day practices, doesn't get with the times
I don't know why anyone is surprised. I bet if it were upto Game Freak, they'd still be making RBY tier games because thats all the old heads are capable of.

I bet they still have CRT monitors and use Windows ME
>>
>>57214985
Agreed, but they also have no desire to work for a worthy society. If you have no innate genetic memory in regards to providing for someone/thing you deserve to not be considered human
>>
>>57215008
They do provide value. To other speedtrannies that are on things like disability benefits. So they pay up the speedtranny pyramid and keep things afloat
>>
>>57210423
>it's up to Kalos to save the franchise
It's over
>>
>>57214798
They should just do a 3d version of Sugimoris artstyle
>>
>>57210506
I don't play mobile games. Why the fuck would I enjoy something I didn't even want in the first place?
>>
>>57215137
Pokemon is a mobile game.
>>
Xenoblade X is a 10-year old game that’s still going to look better on Switch than Z-A
