>was the sole reason the first games were even playable>post Taijiri departure was responsible for tard wrangling the rest of gamefreak to keep making quality games>was thrown under the bus and used as a scapegoat for the declining quality of later entries by the Judas Iscariot of vidya, Ken JEWgimoriApologize
>>58949852He also was credited as the Director for XY, the worst games in the franchise until SwSh and BDSP came along.I almost was going to apologize as well.
>>58949857>He also was credited as the Director for XY,Gamefreak was conspiring against him by this point its not outside the realm of possibility for them to sabotage the games as Masuda got booted immediately after, despite the games selling better than the previous gen
>>58949857>He also was credited as the Director for XY, the worst games in the franchiseNah XY is good
>>58949857Ew, a shit opinion
>>58949872By the time XY released, SM was already drafted and Ohmori was taking over. This was before sales numbers.Whatever they did to kick Masuda happened before XY
>>58949889It was BW
>>58950174But BW was good? XY had the potential to be good if they didn't scrap all the content leaving it a barebones directionless mess.
>>58950180>But BW was good?so was XY
>>58950180>But BW was good?Your own image literally shows how XY is better than BW
>>58950180Ignoring Yawnfaggotry, BW was a hostile take over of the franchise after Masuda had squeezed out over a decade of work out of the original Game Freak staff. Sugimori especially was basically forced to work on the slop production pipeline while his work got shafted because Masuda didn't give a fuck about utilizing the Nintendo partnership for anything other than Pokemon. BW were the first games where Sugimori wasn't the de facto unifying artist for the entire project so it was clearly the breaking point of dealing with Masuda's shit and 100% why XY were mediocre because they cut down the 4 year timespan planned for Gen V (likely including RS remakes like how HGSS capped off Gen IV) while XY had to be rushed to get "new Pokemon" out for Nintendo on their new, flop of a handheld
>>58950207XY was less mediocre than BW though
>>58949857Masuda was kicked out halfway through XY, you can see the incredibly ambitious ideas he had for the game's early drafts like dynamic lighting, different battle animations for Pokemon and so much more that was just depressing to learn was completely nuked, even South Kalos was true and that got nuked by Pedohmori took over and that despicable faggot by his own admission could not be arsed to finish the game, put no thought into the gyms and hated Megas for literally no good reason and tried as hard as humanly possible to remove them and substitute them for a bunch of washed dogshit gimmicks that removed everything that made Megas good. Pedohmori isn't even popular within Gamefreak, workers reviews of the company dropped off a cliff after Masuda was kicked out.And if a translation can be believed, Pedohmori was the one that brought up the spat between Masuda and Sugimori to the higher ups to try and get Masuda kicked out of being Pokemon's director.Bug's in anus man had many issues, but XY being a mess was not his fault, the game was gutted to it's core after he was kicked out.
>>58950236> Masuda was kicked out halfway through XY, No, he directed the whole game.>you can see the incredibly ambitious ideas he had for the game's early drafts like dynamic lighting, different battle animations for PokemonThese were in the game.>but XY being a messThe game is less of a mess than BW.
>>58949857So was Tajiri as Director of GS despite leaving midway through development, GF is just retarded with credits
>>58950211>>58950236You can White Knight for a shit Potential Man game but that doesn't make it any more of a finished, realized experience. I don't give a rat's ass about BW's quality because I hate Masuda's vision, but modern Pokemon being "bad" is because the guy in charge now does not have the capability of finishing games. Even nowadays, people like the DLC of the mainline games more than the base game just because Ohmori can't outdo his best work (SM) the same fucking way Masuda can't outdo Kanto
>>58949857He also directed DP, which are worse than XY (XY is only mediocre), I dunno why you had to list a moderately better game. BDSP is entirely his fault though, from the original game it's based on to being in charge of the remake project to being the "yearly releases" guy so when Legends Arceus was delayed so it would actually be reasonable they had to have a game made incredibly fast for the holiday sales season, all of which resulted in a game that barely sold better than a game that came out months later in the worst sales period possible. Basically, he dug his own grave.
>>58950247Here's the likely reality: Masuda is credited with GS because he literally fucking restarted game development into a completely different game while Masuda is solely credited with XY because XY is half the game he planned for it to beBoth of these statements can be true. If Ohmori really was to blame for XY being unfinished, that doesn't mean Ohmori "directed" XY, it just meant Masuda had to shit out unfinished games. This is ignoring the fact XY were the first globally localized games on launch, so it was very likely they cut out a lot of shit to make it easier to translate to not just English, but various other languages on launch too
>>58950249>I-IT’S UNFINISHED!!!according to who? Why should I care if the game is still good?
>>58950257Here's the likely reality: you’re a coping retard inventing fanfics based on centro tweets
>>58950269According to the employee who literally said they were cutting content from XY to release later in an upper version, in their internal documentation about making the game. Like, why would they lie in their own personal notes?
>>58950286Don't bother. He'll claim the Teraleak never happened because it goes against his bullshit views of XY actually being le perfect game.
>>58950293I mean, you can like unfinished games easy games with serious problems (I love Wind Waker)
>>58950286>TH-THEY CUT CONTENT!!!so every game in existence is unfinished? Cool.
>>58950269If the games were good it wouldn't have been a problem in the first place and you wouldn't spend years coping "THEY'RE TOTALLY GOOD GUYS" on an image board for this long. Only the most insecure of faggots do this. I'm a Gen I fag simply because I love playing the original games so there's no need to cope "IT'S TOTALLY GOOD" meanwhile most of Masuda's slop is so genuinely unplayable to me>>58950276Oh wow the fanfic argument. Perfect for people who are incapable of thinking. Go buy the $20 roms instead of wasting your time here>>58950286This shit is so fucking funny to me. The one game that actually needed a third version and they skip it entirely
>>58950304There's a difference between cutting unnecessary content and cutting it to save it for rereleases that never happened because the games are unfinished. Like how you should probably cut off your penis because it's unnecessary content
>>58950304There's a difference between changes made during development, and cutting something outright with barely any or no real replacement. Xenoblade cut Bionis' Shoulder, Wind Waker cut like half the game, XY cut the post game, and they're all pretty blatant about it even if you didn't know the development history.
>>58950313>There's a difference between cutting unnecessary content What necessary content did they cut?>>58950314>There's a difference between changes made during development, and changes made during development
>>58950249Nigger, I'm not yawnie, and I'm literally just relaying shit that was in the Teraleak and some translations done, that's it, I don't give a rat's arse about your shitty genwarring. Fuck off.
>>58950236>like dynamic lightingIs that even possible on a 3DS?
Masuda's abilities as a music composer alone are extremely underrated and underacknowledged. I know he wasn't classically trained like Ichinose and Sato etc. but some of his work is exceptionally well-constructed and iconic.
>>58949852pokemon went to shit when they created the pokemon company and focused in merchandise slop
>>58950257This all makes me hate Ohmori even more so just because he couldn't be bothered to actually try to do a more cohesive work with what he had and butchered whatever glimpse of higher quality XY could've had, all under the assumption the succession of the game's direction went the way it was suggested by the internal docs, and regardless of Masuda's actual capacity to usher what could've been rather airtight first entries for the generation
>>58950491XY was already airtightyou're getting mad over a fanfic
Yawnie you are the most pathetic person on this board and thats saying a lot. If youre reading this do the world a favor and please end your life
