true

Recipe for a good Pokémon:
>Masuda directing the game
>Morimoto getting one year to polish and extend Masuda's idea
>Ichinose leading the music team
>Masuda composing the battle themes
>Unno leading the graphics team
>>
>>58843200
Name one good Pokemon game that followed that recipe
>>
>>58843547
Masuda + Morimoto gave us Emerald and HG/SS
Masuda and Ichinose gave us the objectively best music
Unno as gfx lead gave us the least ugly games
None of the existing games is perfect but this would get us closer to it.
>>
>>58843172
Masuda is the only reason the franchise survived past Gen 1. Nearly Everyone else at game freak is even more or a worthless jackass than he is, but Masuda was at least willing to step up when Tajiri (understandably) ditched them and whipped those retards to get then to produced something semidecent
>>
>>58843586
Pokemon wasn't meant to be more than gen 1.
>>
>>58843180
>doesnt know ohmori isn't directing any new games
>>
>>58843591
Tajiri started development of G/S, originally called Pokémon 2. He quit shortly before the Spaceworld '97 demo.

Where is tajiri these days?

i found this pic of him during around SV release
>>
>>58843611
according to Wikipedia, he is still an executive at Game Freak and still involved to thos day, including Z-A. In reality he isn't doing anything.
>>
>>58843547
BW2 and HGSS are the closest. Not coincidentally, those are the two best games in the series.
>>
>>58843155
>>ruins your franchise
This is both true and false.

Ohmori certainly has his good moments. He gave us ORAS (the best remake and one of the best Pokemon games ever) and Alola (the best non-Japanese region).

But he also gave us base SwSh and base SV, which are both horrible.

He is talented, but he showed his best under Masuda.

It's a shame Emerald looks like ass and has the Battle Palace, otherwise it might be higher on the list.
>>58844458
It's fine to make something alright but super scuffed and have other people come in to fix it, it's how the original Stars War got popular. The closest somebody has gotten to fixing Ohmori's mess is USUM and given how many problems were already present in SM and not remotely fixed says a lot. Hell, we can look at every non-HGSS remake for examples of how it can easily go wrong (Masuda working with somebody else's game, Ohmori working with Masuda's game, Masuda working with Masuda's game). I genuinely think it would be better for the future DLCs to be stand-alone expansions in the same engine just to avoid Ohmori's shit, the Switch era DLC of his games are like halfway there down to the SV ones having their own self-contained story.

>>58844476
>More interested in SV's DLCs than the base game
>Would need to waste time doing inane shit in SV's base game just to experience the DLC

God I wished Indigo Disk literally existed as post game for ANY other fucking generation

>>58843155
I thought Teraleak says that Masuda and Ohmori are banned from becoming teh director of the new games.
Was the info incomplete? misleading? or just have inconsistencies?
>>
>>58844597
No, that's correct. Masuda had a dispute with Sugimori during X and Y and lost the right to be director of future games. It makes you wonder just how much this dispute affected X and Y. Ohmori was the one who documented all of this, including that he couldn't become the next Masuda for the same fear of the same situation happening where Game Freak becomes a chicken with its head cut off when the lead guy is no longer micromanaging everyone. They straight up admit that nobody internally knew who the director of USUM was because people were splitting roles.
>>

>No, that's correct
No, it isn’t.
>>
>>58844676
We got proof, no? How is it incorrect, you have files that say otherwise?
>>
>>58844748
>We got proof, no?
no
>you have files that say otherwise?
you could try reading the credits of the games instead of being a mouthbreathing tard who takes centro at face value
>>
>>58844752
lol
>>
Ohmori needs to stop using pokemon as a vehicle for his traumadumping
>>
>>58843647
>according to Wikipedia
Just play the games, he gets executive producer credit on every game. Which is a role that can mean whatever, from direct involvement to just putting his signature on whatever thing the rest of them greenlight, the latter being the most likely here.
As for his role in GF he is still the ceo, this is clear from company documentation.
>>
>>58844846
>he gets executive producer credit
imagine watching the credits

>>58844378
Alola is a horrible fucking slog with straight lines, cutscene spam and no real substance. It has an obscenely long tutorial section, the region had very little thought put into it, the exploration sucks and is borderline nonexistent, and there's plenty more. The only faggots who pretend Alola was good are really young zoomoids or pedophiles.
ORAS is a fucking mess and what few additions Pedohmori made to it like the Delta Episode are.........whatever? Zinnia sucks as a character, only her theme is good.
And don't get me started on the retarded multiverse shit and things people loved like the Battle Frontier getting scrapped because fuck you.
Oh, and one last thing, fuck Ohmori's retarded family drama plots, it was fine once, it has far overstayed it's welcome and everyone is already sick of it.
>>
>>58844646
>Masuda had a dispute with Sugimori and got b& from directing
This doesn't even make one lick of sense, Sugimori doesn't hold any more power at Game Freak than Masuda does.
>>
>>58845270
Masuda co-directed Gold and Silver, he joined the GS development team after Spaceworld 97 and said it was all in disarray. The game got totally reworked after that, and Tajiri barely made appearances after Gold and Silver came out apart from some early interviews relating to the game. He appeared on Game Center CX for FRLG, and occasionally appeared in the credits up to DP, though it was more about consulting than any real contribution.

Masuda was the only director for Crystal, the director for Ruby and Sapphire which was based on his childhood summers in Kyushu, director for FRLG, director for DP, director for BW, director for XY, and director for LGPE. The document describes the era from RS to XY as the era where Masuda dominated and micromanaged everything, an era of stifled creativity where there was nepotism with people Masuda favored, and Masuda was more concerned with brand image, and that during the development of X and Y, there was a heated argument between Sugimori and Masuda which ultimately resulted in Masuda no longer being allowed to direct. Obviously he did direct LGPE which came after, but it was also a remake... of a game that had already been remade, and Masuda moved on to TPC after even though was still serving as a face for the franchise up through Gen VIII like how Aonuma is the face of Zelda even though he's more of a producer for the franchise than an actual director.

Masuda and Sugimori are also founding members of Game Freak as an actual video game development company, though Sugimori has greater tenure as he was involved as the artist when it was just him and Tajiri making self-published magazines. We've seen from other internal meetings that Sugimori can veto ideas for other areas of the franchise, like the pitch for the movie about the guy working at a daycare where somebody leaves his Pokémon but never comes back because he committed suicide.

Why the fuck did you type all this nigga, are you fucking autistic?

He’s autistic and likes writing fanfics

>>58846026
Because if I respond with "uh-uh ur dumb" then nobody learns anything. But I'm not going to find the leaked Japanese documents about Game Freak's drama and all the interviews over the years and start citing them.

Masuda isn't mainline director anymore after he and Sugimori had a dispute, and the best games were typically made under Masuda's regime which these documents passively acknowledge by saying Game Freak lacked the experience Masuda had.
>>
>>58843155
>boots Masuda out of directing
>puts out 3 dogshit games
>puts the token white guy in charge and leaves
What exactly was his plan here
>>
>>58843155
Guy's total shit. Always has to force his waifus into the game and force the plot to revolve around them. Even went and ruined Legends by forcing all of his cancerous shit into ZA. Hopefully the leaked info of him being out as director is correct.

>>58844926
Based as fuck. Couldn't have said it any better. As soon as Ohmori took over it seems like every new game revolved around some new waifu he made up.
