Can Gamefreak pull of the JAPAN REGION MEGAGAME?
no
>>58400085Fat fucking chance, shit's probably already cancelled.
>>58400085lollmao
>>58400085No chance, with how bad they are at optimizing, this shit will literally make the Switch 2 catch alight and explode
>>58400085Only if it's chibi like BDSP. Never ever with graphics like those in your pic
>>58400085this is getting cancelled in favour of Legends Galar DLC. I would bet a lot of money on it
>>58400116You already saw the leaked screenshots nigga, it's not chibi.
>>58400116Even then it's a huge undertaking. I think they'd need to figure out how to economically/efficiently model building interiors for a single region before even attempting that, because older games have a number of interior "dungeons", especially with the various towers/buildings you go through in Johto/Hoenn/Sinnoh
>>58400085A more passionate and competent Gamefreak decided they couldn’t do it in 1997.
>>58400116why is GF so allergic to HD2D games?
>>58400104>>58400117>>58400106>>58400142OMEGA cope
>>58400085HELLL NO, that's why this shit is most likely canceled and now seems to be apart of the Gen 10 games based of this
>>58400142They were passionate but absolutely NOT competent even back then.They still wouldn't be able to pull it off in 2D honestly.>>58400159They'd be cutting EVEN MORE corners if they did this. Sprite games can't scale as easily in larger resolutions and it just leads to diminishing returns. Game Freak just flat fucking sucks at actually doing game development.
>>58400167That's not SEED/the Japan game that's the mainline gen 10 game based on SEA.
>>58400167Absolute denial
>>58400085There's like 5 regions in that blank space... Hell no.
>>58400167>Gen 10 will have MMO featuresSnEED bros I don't feel so good
>>58400163how is this cope? if anything it's the opposite
>>58400163go back to twitch/discord/twitter, faggotgamefreak are incompetent
modern gamefreak cant even pull of 1 region
>>58400159>why is GF so allergic to this retarded meme that looks like dogshit?
>>58400085Their most recent game is just a city, how are they going to put 4.5 regions into a game if they can't even do one region in a game?
>>58400293look I don't care I just want sprites to come back
This shit is canceled
>>58400085>Multiple RegionsDo I have to fucking remind you all, ONE CITY
>>58400085Guys What ifHear me outWhat ifGuysThey make it 2D.
>>58400159Because muh HD2D is a Reddit meme that has already gotten old.
>>58400287They couldn't even pull off 1 city without significant compromises
>>58400159Not sustainable for development.Pixel artists are expensive because it's the equivalent of taking on katana forging as a career, you're not gonna have a lot of jobs so you may as well charge up the ass to justify your talent.
>>58400085Its Dead Jim
>>58400159because even though GF is incompetent, they're wise enough to realize that HD-2D is literal cancer
>nintendo only gives them a $10 million budgetimagine how bad this is going to be. its going to make the metroid 4 desert look like disney world.
>>58400233>>58400276>>58400385I understand you don't want anything goor to ever happen but coping won't change anything.
>>58400085Stop expecting GF to do things that they are clearly unable to
>>58400413It's you for putting trust in Game Freak to pull this shit off
>>58400085This shit is either going to run at 10 fps or make Legends Arceus look good in comparison.
>>58400413I want these games to thrive, that's the point retard, they're trapped with gamefreak and their potential completely wasted
>>58400085No way you're asking that seriously. They can't even pull off a single region. You could make the argument >well maybe they'll just base the world off of RBGY+GSC+RSE+DPPtBut then you remember this is modern Gamefreak we're talking about. They'll find someway to remove the things you enjoyed from those regions and deliver on a dogshit experience of n64 cave textures and trees, stuttering framerate, and enough pop in to make a diglett blush.
>>58400293I like how that sprite art of Goldenrod makes it instantly recognizable as Osaka (from someone who’s been there) compared to how Goldenrod actually looks in gen 2 and even gen 4
>>58400293I hate HD2D but the others examples all look like atrocious
>>58400411A whole year of "these increasing budgets are unsustainable, we need to figure out a way to reign in budgets and keep this business sustainable" immediately followed by "WTF!? THESE POKEMON BUDGETS ARE WAY TOO LOW! SPEND MORE MONEY!!!"Remember guys, the more money you spend the more you need to make back. If they decide to make the next game some super high budget thing and it sells around the same amount as per usual then that's NOT a good sign.
>>58400765Buddy they sell 15 million copies a game minimumThey could make an RDR2 scale megagame and still make a profit
no, lmao, come on
>>58400790yes but then nintendo wouldn't be able to line their pockets as much. at the end of the day it all comes down to the fact that you'll all buy it anyway, despite backlash and negative feedback. until people stop that nothing will change. there's no incentive to change
>>58400765mental illness
>>58400850I'm not saying it's right or that I agree with it. I'm just trying to explain what their perspective probably is. Of course I wish they'd spend as much money as they can on the games
>>58400293>>58400402True HD2D has not yet been tried comrade
>>58400875they had that perspective for over 15 years, so it doesnt really apply. their real perspective is that the games are just vehicles for selling merch that sell the same amount no matter what they look like, so the budget and quality should be as little as possible.
>>58400765Thinking of only immediate profit is a poor way to run a company especially one based on franchise and brand recognition. You could skim a few million off the budget for a bigger payday now and keep tarnishing your reputation until you have no new players and your old stockholm fanbase dies off, or you could craft an enduring franchise praised for it's quality and secure high profits for decades. Forgo immediate gain for better long term gain, even squirrels understand this concept.
>>58400837Gamefreak is a completely independent company from Nintendo.
>>58400986Pokemon can skip all that nonsense due to the strength of their brand. The ship is unsinkable and it's the golden goose. Doesn't matter how much they neglect the franchise
>>58400986That's true until you get big enough to secure the normalfag audience, who have no standards for anything and will happily slurp something up as long as it has the brand name on it. Pokemon has reached the too big to fail stage.
>>58401032your brain is independent from reality if you believe this. its crazy the things nintendo fags will say to defend them.
>>58401032They're symbiotic at this point anon, they're a huge system seller for Nintendo and they rely on each other for support. I wouldn't even have bought a GBA/DS/3DS/Switch/Switch 2 if it wasn't for Pokemon
>>58401044i don't think there is a single other example of a game series that has accomplished this, it is a unique phenomenon
>>58400091FpbpYou would be lucky to even battle 4 of all regions gym leaders
>>58400085They can't even make a single city in HD efficiently
