There is absolutely zero chance a Pokémon game that looked like this was ever going to be made, I don't think something with sprites this massive and detailed would even fit on a DS cartridge, let alone be able to be loaded all at once.

I can't even think of any game that looks like this. There's a reason 2D games are made with sprites and tiles and not fully drawn. It would take an unimaginably long time to draw all this and every time you wanted to change anything about the level layout you'd have to send the whole thing back to the artists, it'd be an absolute nightmare.

So GO back, the pixelshit games are STILL there.
But I know you won't because you're not actually 7, ignorant of the wider gaming landscape and unable to accept you're a cast-off from a franchise that has CONTINUALLY looked forward since they got big in Japan and Nintendo ordered a SECOND set of their games off them.

While I generally agree with your first point, I dont see why the most successful media franchise of all time can't make something like this. If an artist can make this, a multi-billion dollar company can do it.
You act like its not there fault they take 2 years to make a mainline game and it looks, feels, plays like shit. Its unfortunate people still buy them, nostalgia-ridden millennials are trash.
>>
>>58851001
Heres some example of pretty games
>To the Moon
>Octopath Traveler
>The Last Night
>Sea of Stars
Say what you will about their gameplay/mechanics, they are pretty pixel games - far beyond ANYTHING Pokemon has ever done or will do.
The simply truth is the Pokemon was ALWAYS trash, I love them, Ive played 5 romhacks (Lazarus, Odyssey, Unbound being the big three I recommend to people), but the base games are some of the worst and ugliest turn based games ive ever played.
>>
>>58851025
>Lazarus
53 tranny flags in that game
>>
>>58851146

Ok, doesnt change thats its mechanically and graphicaly better than any Pokemon game released in the last decade

they could, they have all the money in the world, they could hire the best artists, developers and directors, the point is they won't do it because it means more costs

It's called priorities. What's the amount of effort needed to actually implement and code it and the return on investment for the business? And would it actually be fun to play? It's far easier to appease a few nostalgia-ridden Disney adult tards with a new Pikachu and Eevee plush than pushing out a new game.

Some artists can also spend years on a few drawings and design concepts and people suddenly think they came up with it in a month or something. That's not how drawing, coding, music, or any creative endeavor work.

>>58852646
Maybe it’s just me, but with the Tetraleak at the end of 2024 showing that the next region was designed to be Indonesia / Alola 2.0 it does make me wonder why they just didn’t do the Sevii Islands instead. Oldfags like me would like to see them again and most of the audience nowadays probably has no idea they ever existed.

I've never been one to play roms since I still play the original carts, but are there any enjoyable romhacks that have this kind or similar art style?
>>
>>58849700
>>58849862
>>58851243
The pokemon community is already full of autistic programmers and even more autistic artists, who would make this game for zero pay. And it would blow anything nintendo and gamefreak have done with this franchise out of the water.
And if you think about it, this franchise belongs to the people who were irradiated with it more than it belongs to whatever company happened to make it 30 years ago.
>>58851288
Gens 1 and 2 captured the audience, they're the good ones. Fans of the later shit do it out of consumerist brand loyalty, despite the fact that the designs no longer fit the original aesthetic. If the franchise started off with gen 3 shit, it would have never become as big as it is. Also, Dunbar's number is between 100 and 250. Scientifically speaking, there's no place for later gens in people's hearts.
>>
>>58849700
They could have done something more interesting, yeah. But Game Freak doesn't have the kind of brilliant minds or visionaries that you would think they do and so the 3D direction ends up looking underwhelming
>>
>>58853899
It's not a matter of being "visionaries" or not, idiot, it's a matter of taking their fans exactly for what they are: braindead suckers who'll buy anything they shit out that has "Pokémon" on it, no matter how ugly and broken it is, and so they're taking advantage of it by not putting even half the effort they could. It's really not that hard to understand.
>>58853189
If by "artstyle" you mean "level of detail", then I don't think there are. Quarantine Crystal has improved tilesets and some cities look quite pretty, but it's not even close to the image in OP. I think you could achieve something that resembles it but not without cutting a lot of corners.
>>
>>
>>58853887
This is going to blow your mind. The kids playing the new games don't care about the old ones. Everything you're saying about gen 1 and 2 applies to the kids starring with gens 8 and 9. Just look at your little faggot Dunbar thing. They don't have room for the old pokemon.
>>
>>58849703
but a new one could if gamefreak wasnt fucking around

It's always sad watching a midlife crisis happen in real time.
>>
>>58854086
why wont they make games that look like THIS
>>
>>58854422
Because it's a waste of resources. You'll either be unable to see most of the map or your player model will tiny. At least the realistic looking ones used an actual game engine instead of concept art.

Gen 1/2 nostalgia peaked with the Black/Lost Silver creepypastas during the HGSS era.

lmaoooooooo

Will 2D ever make a comeback?
I think so
>>
>>58856488
those were rgb/gsc pastas
>>
>>58856777
Yes, but they specifically came about during the nostalgia period that HGSS fostered, but before BW came. Lost Silver literally opens by talking about the new release of HGSS and the pasta's "message" was about the Gold of GSC being forgotten by later generations, a thinly veiled reference to the HGSS remakes superseding the GSC originals. Meanwhile, Black was literally about mortality. Black and Lost Silver were both clearly written by a genwunner and a Johtoddler writing spooky stories about their childhood games, both written while HGSS was the newest thing, hence me saying that that period (2009-10) was when Gen 1/2 nostalgia peaked.

You know peak is subjective? There are people that will say those very same words in a BDSP or SwSh thread and mean it.

>>
>>
>>58859633
Gold/Silver is widely regarded as the peak of Pokemon; it's definitely the best game in the series that I have played, and no one seems to have anything good to say about the modern games which I don't play anymore.

That is good enough for me.
>>
>>58859646

Is Crystal not held to the same regard? Crystal was my first Pokemon game and it happens to be my favorite. I don't know the opinions on it.
