    Seems Like LG/EP had more of an End Game

    the cherry on top is that in 2020 they'll make another pile of millions and millions of dollars

    and we'll get a super kid friendly Let's Go Johto that is an exact remake of Crystal with a few minor additions and a bunch of things cut out

    and you'll get to use Kanto and Johto Pokemon only...

    They started concept phase right after sun and moon which lasted a year, Ohmori said it was three years of development after that including the debug time.

    Yea that I can believe .. .5 years would be .. a lil something

    About 3-4 years. It's so conflicting. One said it started during the S/M Dev time the other say it happened after 2016. This game had a longer time of development than usual. It shouldn't be this bad tbh.

    Man, gamefreak needs some work. I guess if you want to be optimistic they can only hopefully go up from here. They don't have to develop for a tiny ass handheld anymore. I would mention Animal Crossing's beautiful transition but they're the same devs as the Splatoon devs so they've had experience since Wii U.

    Would rather have a Let’s Go set in Sinnoh than this tbh

    Well first they need to stop putting the inexperienced guys on the game.

    The mainstream media will still give it a 8/10

    apparently in development they f***ed up the importer for assets from USUM, and still ran with it tryna fix the game
    cause if they restarted they couldnt meet the yearly deadline.

    f***ing incompetence just own up to it instead of tell us 'remade models high quality animations'
    this is gonna be a PR disaster and here's hoping the next entry isnt just an upscaled 3ds game

    It only will be a disaster if the games doesn't sell well. They're going to sell just because.

    Yeah the games definitely going to get good reviews. The reviewers just don't care about the actual product blend of the games. Just saw the IGN reviewer for ORAS tell people to grow up when it came to SWSH dex cuts and other issues. Weird

    This is the sad result of modern HD development. If people are gonna want a super nice looking Pokemon games, especially with the amount of Mons they have, they have to accept longer development times. It'd been 2 years since Switch launched and this might be one of the worst lookin exclusives.

    People want "BOTW Pokemon" that s*** gonna take 5 years.

    I dont think anyone wouldve said no to it if that was the plan from the start. But it clearly wasnt. If were promised the expansive botw type pokemon game. Nobody would give af how long it took

    This has nothing to do with fans. Game Freak has always been on a yearly cycle. It's also Nintendo that set the deadline. It's a double edge sword. If you want better games stop supporting it.

    This game needs a new development team. Needs a couple teams actually.

    Let one team do the remakes and enhanced versions and a separate team do the new gen mainline games.

    What they’ve done in 3 years I’m sure a competent dev team could do in under 1.5

    Pokémon already has most people by the neck because we love the mons and the core mechanics. We really aren’t even asking for BOTW. All we want is a game that isn’t complete garbage and uninspired.
