Good graphics can enhance gameplay just like music and story can. But good art style is better for this than pure graphics.

For example, highfidelity realistic graphics wouldn't fit something like Tales of games. Pic related.

It's even more embarrassing when they intentionally left the 3D off because they presumably couldn't hit a stable 30.

Fucking Sonic '06 has amazing music (in fact, good music is the only thing that Sonic has any claim to nowadays) yet the game itself was shitty enough to tank the franchise until Sonic Colors came out.

/thread

The simple reason is because Japanese developers who can make good game engines no longer exist.

It's not just games, when was the last time you used some kind of software that you really liked that was Japanese?

Here's a really popular Japanese e-commerce website, for example: http://kakaku.com/
>>
Caring so much about keeping up with Joneses in terms of graphical power is a large portion of why AAA games are now so bloated and dull. The art style matters, and insofar as a system has to be able to render the art direction effectively power matters too, but the obsession over it is tedious.

Something like Gunstar Heroes or Yoshi's Island is more aesthetically pleasing to look at than Uncharted 4 or Star Wars: Battlefront.
>>
>>337573058

The fps only dips in battles because the pokemon models have ludicrously high number of polygons.

All the pokemon models are really detailed. They future proofed them and didn't scale them back. They will be using the same ones for likely the next few generations.

Listen friend, even for the games that were designed in-house, most of the games still can't stay at 30 fps consistently.

I mean fuck, when was the last time you saw a PS4 or Xbone game stay at 30 fps all throughout?

One, two, maybe four games out of the dozens that have been released for the fucking things so far?

Meanwhile, most Nintendo games released are fairly good looking games. I don't even like smash or mario games anymore but the fact that I can play them for the most part and not have the quality dropping like a shitty youtube video just for turning around like in Fallout 4 is pretty fucking welcome in what's supposed to be "next gen" gaming.

The 3DS is underpowered anyway, but the method of 3D is also unnecessarily taxing because of multi-rendering.

Graphics often get in the way of good gameplay imo.

For example, all of the old 2D Mario titles play so much better than the NSMB games.

Its cause Gamefreak can't into game engines.Pic related, why does charizard require that many triangles? Going to laugh if they can't even hit 60fps on the New 3DS, meanwhile MH4 can easily do it with minor slowdown in heavy action scenes.

They probably tried to future proof the models for efficient rehashing when they get better hardware to work with. What irritates me more about their models is how devoid of personality they are. The stadium/Colosseum models were full of character in comparison.

Keep it smooth and drop to less than 30 fps. You don't need to have 'high' poly models to make something amazing. Meanwhile Smash 3ds runs at a stable 60fps without dropping by uisng LOD swithching, Face it gamefreak are pretty awful when making engines.
>>
>>337576314
What do you want them to do, make the battle backgrounds more detailed and make the Pokemon look like shit? You're only going to see that model during fights. Two models like that in a simple arena can't possibly be more demanding than full 3D levels from other games.
>>
>>337576314

That charizard mesh looks good tho. I think you re making the mistake of assuming that just cause the style is simpler, they need less polygons. That jellyebean look is important to the style, and they will use as many polys as needed to achieve it. Plus is not like 60fps matter at all in RPGs (unless it triggers your autism)

The major complaint with 2d pokemon games was that they felt slow. This gen its been improved, but when you have smash brothers running at 60fps that has more hectic battles and around the same poly count per model, just shows how unfamiliar gamefreak is with 3d.

Polygon counts mean less nowadays than shader and bitmap densities and what not. Pokemon has tons of transparent special effects layered right on top of each other. Im not saying that gamefreak is a 3D master, but I would be willing to bet that 30fps is necessary to keep the cartoon look they want, with all this effects.

Mount and Blade is hideous, even with the most intensive of visual modifications, and yet it is probably my favorite video game, because the Gameplay is fucking outstanding. There are insanely rare cases where superior gameplay is muddled by inferior graphics unless you're a retard obsessed with graphics. This comes from a weeb who buys every copy of Dynasty Warriors, Monster Hunter Clones (and MH as well), Disgaea, and other garbage because they are fun.

Pretty sure MH Generations is locked at 30 FPS because of all the extra flashy effects they added for it. Also people claim that MH4U and MH3U are 60FPS on 3DS but it's not actually true, they're more like 45-55 FPS.

The consumers. Nobody makes garbage on the right because they believe it's high quality. They made it that way because it's comically easy to mass-produce, sells insanely easily to the common otaku who lacks any form of taste, and is equally easily marketed. Showing off the girl on the left involves understanding her relevance to the story, who she is, and from what I've seen, we even see that she's a bashful otaku loser, much like the player on the opposite end of the screen. How the fuck do you market that, while competing with "These moe catgirl-meido-chan's all love their Nii-sama! You are the best! $12.99!"?

That's great, but I'd rather have a drop from 60 to 50 on a game that has a lot more action compared that can also be rendered in 3d if you want (lol), than a game that can't even handle 30fps or even the 3d feature at all.

Personally I'm not really a fan of most of the Generations-specific stuff... styles, supers, prowler mode, and the extra anime flashiness in general I could all do without. But it looks like it'll have overall a superior monster roster than 4U and it probably wouldn't be very hard for it to have a superior endgame than 4U (guild quests pls go) so it should still be good, plus most of those Generations-specific features are pretty easy to ignore and probably won't carry forward into MH5 so it's no big deal.

Interesting, because I bought it for $30 at launch and currently own all the characters for free.
I'm not saying SF didn't botch it's launch but god this single player content is the most important content meme needs to end

Also the alternative is to have 5 versions of the same sprite based fighter with slight tweaks between games and maybe an added character.
