Imagine if mainline Pokemon looks as good as Pokemon Masters Red 1996. Why didn’t GF use cel shaded when they went 3D?
Laziness.
>>59022121Because Sugimori changed his art style from this long before mainline went 3D
>>59022131/thread
>>59022147I think OP is saying art style aside cel shaded looks perfect for Pokemon. So why GameFreak never did it.
>>59022121isnt there a 3d fangame that uses this style?
>>59022179There's a few videos but it's not an actual game
>>59022121>NOOOOO THE WATERCOLOR WAS NEVER SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE THAT IT'S NOT WASHED OUT REEEEEE
>>59022121anon... I don't think you understand what cel shading really means
>>59022121>Why didn’t GF do XYZ???????BECAUSENORMALFAGSWILLBUYIT ANYWAYWhy is there no Battle Frontier? Why are the animations bad? Why are the textures bad? Why is your favorite Pokemon cut? Why don't the games have my favorite obscure feature from a Gen 3/4/5 game? Why is the trainer customization somehow worse than it was in XY? Why is there no dating sim?There is your answer, every single time.
>>59022121>in the trailer his Pikachu is also shaded like he is>in the game it's the exact same Pikachu model that all the other trainers useThey really couldn't have gotten Creatures to make a fat Pikachu model in the same style? It was so close to being perfect
>>59022218>>59022147This>>59022131People that say this have no idea how game dev works.
This company is fucking retarded, these games could look like Skyward Sword HD by now and nobody would be shitting on the graphics nearly as much. Yeah, the draw distance, art direction and empty environments might persist, but at least you'd have nice, colorful graphics for what was actually on screen. Instead these ugly ass games feel like a fucking Wii tech demo since there's literally nothing going for them.
>>59022228>dena>doing anything that requires effortLolLmao even
>>59022312NTA but tell me more about dumpa's incompetency
>>59022401Well, see how the game is called Pokemon Masters EX? That's because they had to literally relaunch Pokemon Masters within the first year, for reasons too numerous to list but let's just say everything that could be wrong with a gatcha was, and literally issue a written statement apologizing about how shit the game was. And don't even start with Pokemon Pocket
>>59022121I really don't understand why GF became so obsessed with that disgusting realism bootleg pixar artstyle instead of continuing to use the Sugimori-anime look that's synonymous with Pokemon.
>>59022121Pokemon as a series is obsessed with nostalgia wanking, and that Red alt is the first time in my memory that they've attempted to put the original artstyle into 3D
Gen 6/7 were meant mimic his modern art, not the 90s art.
>>59022131>>59022305I don't think it's straight up laziness but there's a thing about japanese corporate culture that leads to a lot of things done the wrong ways and wasting a lot of energy and resources.>>59022495I wouldn't be surprised they tested cel-shading and hard outlines in SV's early stages and the new engine burned the GPUs>>59022419I don't care about mastersex, the poly count in those models isn't the highest but they're easy to edit and I've had a lot of fun learning 3D with them. Still a long way to go
>>59022121the renders in this game to me look so uncanny and cheap.
