Their reuse was the main factor, and GameFreak has outright stated that this was the case. The models are super high in poly count (one of the main reasons battles get laggy in the 3DS games), so that they don't look like shit one generation later like the Stadium ones did in Colosseum.

>>
>>323619938
From what little I know of modeling, once you have a basic skeleton and rigging on top of that, animations for 3D models are by comparison easy to make.

On the other hand any new action or animation a sprite makes has to be draw every for every frame, and then the game has to have a system to access, select, and display each image per drawn frame on the screen.

And this is for good sprite stuff, you could probably make that indie shit by smashing your keyboard and mouse with your ass.

>>
>>323619938
think of it like this, sprites are the same as doing traditional drawn animation, 3D models are like making a painstaking doll then just posing it in any position for future animations, with even less work than stop motion because you can create the entire animation by just moving around parts as an animation file instead of capturing every small movement as an image

>BW 2
>best in the series
I want this meme to end.

It was no better than BW beyond having an actual post-game like every "third version" they make typically does. It held your hand just like BW, XY and ORAS, it was still piss-easy for anyone who's not 10 and the story was no better than anything we've had before. No, having more and longer dialogue did not make the general premise and quality of writing any different.

BW and BW2 were visually what DP should have been though and I liked the games just fine. HGSS would have been even better if they looked liked BW/BW2. But this meme needs to die, BW2 is guilty of many of the same offenses the other newer games get flak for in terms of the story, pacing and annoying hand-holding.

Its the features and changes that push these games up there for me. Say wbat you will about the story, I love that instead of giving us the same game with story alterations we got sequels and get to see how unova changed in that time, visually changing the areas and having to go around the map a different way along with some new locations. Also the base game has the most pokemon. ( haven't played ORAS) And while I hate how the difficulty options are locked behind keys I was glad to see some kind of option for increasing difficulty.

>Its the features and changes that push these games up there for me
Wasn't it mechanically the same as BW though? I didn't notice any big changes and the bottom screen was still near-useless. Aesthetic changes that won't make it to the next release I don't really care for, same goes for slight variations in the "collect 8 badges, fight the E4" story. All I saw of value in BW2 were new move tutors/egg moves, but having an AR made that a moot point.

>Also the base game has the most pokemon
I actually did not like seeing old Pokemon show up before post-game in BW2. BW felt like an actual fresh start in a new place with all-new Pokemon, something R/S and D/P were kind of missing. It felt more like starting R/B for the first time than any other game in the series since.

>>323624892
ORAS was rushed as fuck, that's probably why.
>>
>>323624892
Except I'm not comparing it to other remakes, and it isn't fair to do that, be it HGSS or FRLG even.
>>
>>323624892
FR/LG added new content, HG/SS were essentially remakes of Crystal and not G/S with the Battle Frontier from Platinum. ORAS were straight remakes of R/S without any of the improvements or extras Emerald had.

Emerald was the first game to have the Battle Frontier and ORAS are fucking missing it. People expected all the extra stuff from Emerald to show up, like extra trainers, more double battles, improved gym leader rosters, etc., and we got the bare-minimum effort from GF.

>>323619906
I won't argue that the engine they're using isn't shit but you clearly don't understand how models like that can cause massive slowdowns. It's entirely part of the problem, not a separate thing.

I don't understand how gamefreak has gotten as far as it has. They have proven time and time again that they're really shit at a lot of things.
>>
>>323625552
It's flawed by design because they used R/S as the base and not Emerald. The game would have been much better with Emerald's improvements and it wouldn't have taken any more time to make because they were just tweaks to trainers, rosters, Pokemon availability, etc.

Deffered rendering and LOD has been a thing for soon 30 years anon.
Step 1: You load the model
Step 2: You create a LOD of the model the frame it loads
Step 3: You render the LOD instead of the full model, and only use the full model for closeups

Step 4: Model on picture is only 4000-20.000 points. There is already games with 100.000 point characters running around, because of step 1-3.
Gamefreak should get their shit together, 30fps with only 2 models onscreen is awful.

This might sound autistic, but the hacking/cheating community in Pokemon has really turned me away from the series.

I remember when X and Y first came out, the online was great because the 3DS wasn't hacked yet and the Pokemon Bank hadn't been released. When you played against someone online, you knew that their Pokemon were legitimate. They caught, trained, and raised those Pokemon themselves, and it was really enjoyable.

Now people just cheat. It's so fucking easy to get your hands on perfect custom built Pokemon, and it makes training Pokemon feel like a complete waste of time.

>>323629547
The only entrance/exit is a train, which clearly isn't made for public transportation and is probably for construction/mining purposes. The little worker in front of the building implies that it's actually a mine.

So. How do you enter/leave the town?
>>
>>323629770
Yeah we all see how that worked out.

Everyone spends the whole time making shitty fakemon and not building a good world.
>>
>>323629704
Pokemon will keep declining until there's a major change in leadership, or it stops selling.

So basically, wait for the old staff to die.

>>
>>323629991
True. Didn't even notice that.

If I that was my game, I'd have the gym be deep in a mine dungeon. The train would break down on your way to the gym forcing you to traverse the abandoned mineshafts and beat the gym leader so he can fix the train.

Find world fags. A ton of them lurk on /tg/.
You can find artists, writers, coders, etc. all over the place if you look hard enough. The problem is, YOU have to look for them, shitters and a very small number of other people will come to you.

I actually wish they switched back to sprite, atleast for the main game.

Half the pokemon look like shit in 3d.
>>
>>323613252
>Sprites are easier to use
I fucking wish, man. I miss sprite art in games. People go on abut "muh indie pixels" memeshit, but sprites are honestly way more aesthetically pleasing for games than 3D models and muh realism.

This is especially true for fighting games. Fuck the new street fighters look like such ass. At least Guilty Gear emulates the 2D artwork well.

I think it's cute.
Did you want a rehash instead?

>>323629991

he probably couldnt find a passenger train sprite. It's a demake of a town from XY which you can only get to by train.

This... this just seems really cluttered. Like there's too much trying to go on at once, there's no space more than a couple squares across without another ramp or tree in the way. I like the idea, but at least 40% of this image is covered in untraversable trees.

ok, hear me out on this idea for a MMO

To be fair, a Pokemon game going in the direction of Genei Ibunroku or Cyber Sleuth would probably be more pleasing than Platinum, Emerald and Episode Delta combined.
>>
>>323630858
Good example of people not knowing what looks good and also works on the game. You would see barely 5% of the area at a time so you do not need to plop that many trees for it to look like a forest for example.

Overhauled breeding mechanics that work over time.

Events that allow you to catch certain pokemon.

oh yeah, forgot about that

I didn't want to say F2P because I wanted to avoid thinking about P2W mechanics and ideas, I was thinking more along the idea of a one time buy and a yearly subscription after the first year

Surf

>>323631507
There's like moves that pokemon can learn through these machines that you get by completing certain sections in the game's story.

One of them is surf. You can sail across water using that pokemon.

There's other moves like flash that lights up dark caves, cut that cuts down trees blocking paths, etc.

Whoever made this is a piece of shit. The only reasons I can think of fucking up this badly are:
1, They never played a Pokemon game.
2, They're female and played a Pokemon game.
3, They did play it but were too distracted by their older brother molesting them with live crayfish the whole time to accurately remember any of it outside of hypnotherapy sessions.
