Pokémon - About the leaks

PROTIP: Press the ← and → keys to navigate the gallery, 'g' to view the gallery, or 'r' to view a random image.

GRIM-ECHOES also, reminder if there ever needed to be one that with BDSP on the horizon and leaks indicating that there's no substantial new/improved content as per standards that were set with previous remakes (and certain content/QOL features from later gens are in fact missing), as well as the overall quality of the games indicating severe crunch, that there is absolutely no reason to pay $60 for these games. There is nothing BDSP could offer you that Platinum cannot give you in droves, and if you want to experience good, heartfelt remakes that were faithful to the original games while heavily expanding upon and improving base content then FRLG, HGSS, and ORAS are all right there and had something unique to offer for every respective generation that gives players incentives to play those over the base games if they desire. If you're worried about somehow compensating the developers for their time spent on this project, they've already been paid. Your money will not be going to the people that deserve it. It can't be stressed enough that a day 1 patch that replaces placeholder music with the final compositions because the composers were unable to finish their work before the game went gold is not normal. Waiting for the game to be “fixed later" or "get better later" to justify your purchase is not normal. A multi-billion dollar company offering you the absolute bare minimum and outsourcing to a company that is completely inexperienced with back-to-back game development that are then made to work under a strict deadline should not be accepted as normal. Please just play Platinum-for a game that's over a decade old it offers you everything that BDSP can and even more. You can also play the following games in the monster collecting genre: Shin Megami Tensei V (Switch) (Releases this Friday, in fact!) Monster Hunter Stories 2 (Switch, PC) (an incredible spinoff based on the Monster Hunter franchise; it's everything you've ever wished Pokemon could be and more) Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Complete Edition (Switch, PSVita, PC) (flawed, owing to a low budget and lack of broad worldwide appeal, but is solid from a gameplay perspective and doesn't make compromises) Fossil Fighters (DS) (very charming and underrated game featuring dinosaurs that you can emulate right now!) Again, you do not need to buy and play the latest Pokemon game. You do not need to give Nintendo/The Pokemon Company your money. It's far better spent elsewhere, and these multi-billion dollar companies can and should do better. You as the consumer deserve better. Please play anything else. GRIM-ECHOES #just wanna say though that frlg and oras are doodooass remakes #hgss really is the best pokemon remake we ever got and we wont ever see anything like it again #reminder that oras cut the battle frontier #and when asked why masuda said its because some people wouldnt like it which is a doodooass reason to cut content #in the same interview he basically admits less effort is being put into pokemon because people can just play other games #which i think speaks measures about the decline in quality pokemon has seen in the past decade This is true, by the way-this comes from an interview from 2014 where he is asked why ORAS had a noticeably lower difficulty level than previous games to which he replies (paraphrasing) “we wanted to create a balanced game that was suitable for an age where everyone is busy and younger people have wider access to entertainment through smart devices and spend less time on individual games than in the past". This is also the reason the Battle Frontier was not present; i.e. people now would not have appreciated it and would just become bored or frustrated because of the difficulty. Essentially, some players aren't engaged by extended content, therefor there is no extended content to keep players engaged. Not the philosophy you want to have about your product, and it's a convenient excuse to spend less so you can charge more. It's also worth noting that Masuda has either directed or produced almost every mainline Pokemon game to date and is the director for BDSP, explaining many of the creative and game design choices that have been made.

Apologists back in February : "You don't know if it's a 1:1 remake ! They could add Distortion World and Battle Frontier !"

Game : does not add Platinum content or Battle Frontier, is exactly what everyone thought it was when announced

Apologists : "uuuuh let people enjoy things ! You're not the target demographic !"

All a parent really needs to buy the product is seeing the Pokémon name on the box. Frustrating as it may be, the series does not need to try to sell.
