/vr/ - Retro Games

Disappointed. The graphics and Pokemon models/animations don't looksubstantially better than on Stadium games. In fact, Stadium 2 might still have the best 3D pokemon to this day, they have a lot more personality and better crafted animations than the 3D pokemon in the newer 3D games, or this new Switch game.
They could have taken the opportunity to make an actual remake of gen 1 with the older art style. People fucking love older Sugimori watercolor art, but I guess that'd take too much work.
But besides that, I was watching a playthrough from E3, and it looks like they broke the game, you can't battle wild pokemon anymore, you just catch them with a motion control gimmick, which I wouldn't mind if the game would actually battle them.
You can fight trainers, but I also noticed they're noticeably watered down. I don't know how the game progress later on, but on Viridian Forest, trainers has, 1 very low level pokemon, on the original trainers had at least 2.
