Why do these games feel like Gen 1 cut content or an expansion pack than a sequel?
Because Tajiri was a shitty "ideas guy" that had no idea how to create a game of reasonable scope within Game Freak's provided deadlines, the development of the game was a mess.
>>59026801Because Game Freak were lazy pedophiles who were upset they had to make another game since it would mean they wouldn't have free time to make loli rape porn. So they tried to self sabotage
>>59026833Would you rather sonic team make a PKMN game?
>>59026833They probably would have made better loli rape porn than Masuda made games. People got swept up by Tajiri's accident that they were being sold lies in the form of Masuda's slop for the next two decades
>>59026833Woah woah woah, QRD on this?
they feel like cheap cashgrabs
>>59026801Because that's literally what they are, Gold and Silver were the left over ideas they had for Gen 1 expanded into it's own game

>>59026801According to several sources I've read before these games were originally meant to be the end of the franchise as a whole. They were basically meant to "Red 2 and Blue 2" for the lack of a better description. The demo version also demonstrates this because they were originally going to be in the exact same style as Red and Blue. That's why there were so few new Pokemon and why Johto Pokemon were so hard to find and why a lot of them were weak. They were basically just meant to complement Kanto Pokemon but not replace them or anything. Also funny that you mention cut content because a lot of gen 2 Pokemon were actually supposed in gen 1 but couldn't be because of lack of space. And that also makes it ironic when people say that only gen 1 had good designs and everything else was terrible because a lot of the gen 2 designs were also meant to be in gen 1.
>>59026801Lots of video game sequels were usually just a "2nd quest" type game. Or radically different. They went with doing the similar route. It locked the formula in. Look at various part 2's of the 80's and 90's. Tons are just the same game again.
It's called SOVL.........you wouldn't understand........................

And that also makes it ironic when people say that only gen 1 had good designs and everything else was terrible because a lot of the gen 2 designs were also meant to be in gen 1.This is a fallacy engendered by Gen 1's originally planned 190 creatures. When they cut a lot of the chaff from Gen 1, they didn't actually cut the index slot assigned to it. When they went to do Pokémon 2/GS, they decided to add new designs instead of the scrapped ones, which is why missingno resolves to Gen 2 pokémon when transferred. Gen 2 recognises the index number and provides the associated pokémon's data from it. The babies were brand new created for Gen 2, because they were finally able to add genders and breeding and as they;ve always done if they scrap something, it either gets re-worked to get added or it gets binnned entirely.
>>59027159When you look into what actually got scrapped in Gen I, lots of what were being made for Gen II were just outright brand new designs going forward. The closest thing to a carry over from what was in Gen I was the Raitora line, Jagg becoming the Grotesque-line then splitting to become Sharpedo and Huntail, Mikon, which got cut 3 times, but was the only baby to have existed since Gen I due to them initially wanting Raichu to evolve at firstBut even something like Ho-Oh was planned after the games released and was always meant to be the "ultimate Pokemon" as in final, than strongest. One of the leaked Pokemon Blue versions we got cut a lot of the mystery of the scrapped Gen I Pokemon due to having the back sprites so we can readily access stuff like Crocky, Dear, Ballonda and Boo (the original member of Magmar and Electabuzz's trio)
>>59027509also the fact that gen 2 was originally developed for the gameboy so they have a lot of unused gb sprites lying around
Because they really couldn't do much more with a GBC
>>59027589Japanese magazines from the 90s always seem like they're trying to prop up Tajiri as the next gaming wiz like Kojima and MiyazakiI wonder if his complete public silence since Gen 2 is the result of him not being able to handle the spotlight
>>59026819thisthe DMC2 of Pokemon
>>59027108Sugimori likes 7 year olds
>>59026801Because is what they are
>>59027655Well he a literal autist
>>59026801Because that's basically what it was. Trying to cram Johto *and* Kanto into one Game Boy cartridge was a retarded decision that resulted in GF sidelining and half-assing the new content to preserve the memberberries.
