Is this going to be a great game or what?
why is that forest so confy? holy shit
>>26931924
This is a cave I believe but holy shit this is glorious
>>26931914
It's not a full HD open-world adventure yet, but we're on the right track.
>inb4 it's Santalune Forest 2.0 AKA Viridian Forest 3.0
>>26931938
Nope it's just dense forest.
Light pierces through the canopy.
Look closely, u will see the leaves of the trees.
>>26931938
>>26932205
It's more like a giant tree, I think.

Your underage is showing
>>26932205
It's officially a cave.

>>26932303
Whatever it is, it looks great.
Remember one guy a week or two ago making a thread complaining about how caves in Pokémon aren't unique enough, and should have shit growing in them.
>>26931914
Beautiful, utsukushi, cantik, everything nice!
>>26932205
It's definitely a cave.
Regardless it looks incredible.
>>26931914
Those canopies. Reminded me of... oh God, Monster Hunter where we had that uhh bug and monkey monsters.
>>26932290
Can you read?
>>26932373
You write like a fag and probably mean Nerscylla and Kecha Wacha/Rajang.
>>26931914
lol, that forest is tiny. It looks pretty but we will be watching at it for 5 minutes tops
>>26932429
You're a fag, fag.
>>26932380
yes
only the underage think pokemon should be an HD open-world adventure
>>26931914
what makes you think that?
>>26931938
If this is all they need to hype you up then i feel sorry for you
Alright I'm starting to get hyped for these games. For some reason I felt next no hype for a really long time when gen 6 was coming.
That forest looks so pretty man.
Someone make a wallpaper version of it
>>26932478
I can't think of a single unique thing they did with the Kalos region outside of the riding segments.
>>26931914
It's too early to say for sure.
Ok that's a weird looking cave with ferns growing inside and leaves hanging from the roof.
Anyway looks kewl and the aesthetics are b. e. a. utiful
>>26932303
How did you get the link the image names?

I guess wild encounters can happen every step you take since this looks cave-like
>>26932846
It's a dense forest with a canopy! How is that hard to believe?
>>26932446
But anon, underage players are the ones who need to be hand-held through a linear route to complete the game. If the game was an open world the kiddies would get lost.
>>26931914
Damn that's a comfy looking cave
>>26931914

OP, please remember to ask your Doctor if Independent Thought is right for you.

My Doctor tolled me to take my meds but...
My other Docter at /f/ is the one that gives me the right dose if you catch my drift.
>>26931943
Santalune forest was like, practically the same as viridian forest though
This looks way better so I dont really care where in the game it is
>>26931941
>open world
>>26932270
maybe it's that giant tree on the legendarie's island
>>26932429
I doubt anon got gud enough to meet the Rajang if he cant remember their names.

I bet you're one of those faggots that wants more story in Pokemon.
>>26931914
>That little cave entrance to the right
I'm already hyped for the games.
>>26931943
Its definitely not, the pathing looks very different and on top of that the thing on the right... is that a fucking tunnel? This is pretty fucking cool. Might be a rehash of the forest where you caught the monkeys in Gen 5, but i'd be okay with that.
The tunnel-looking object might also be flagged as a Mossy rock, those are usually near the entrances.
REGIONAL DEX EEVEE CONFIRMED. LEAFEON BY THE FOURTH BADGE.
Please GF dont disappoint me let me be right
>>26934268
>Santalune forest was like, practically the same as viridian forest though
No shit, Anon. That's what I said.
And this is a cave, not a forest.
>>26932471
t. bitter contrarianbut really alola is shaping out to being 10/10
>>26934547
>leafeon fagprimetaste desu
>>26933832
waifu upscaler makes game screenshots look like concept art 2bh
>>26934588
Not him but we still know NOTHING about Alola besides it being split into islands and each having its own Legendary. We know nothing about any NPCs other than the starting ones, we know no towns, we know nothing of the difficulty curve or whether garbage like the Gen VI Exp. Share will return.
The ONLY thing we know about the region is that it admittedly looks pretty. You shouldn't be so hyped over something you barely know anything about being made by a developer whose recent games have been complete shit for the past three years.
>>26934543
what was said in the treehouse about encounters?
>>26934645
>shaping out
>as in, we're still learning about it
>>26934661
Yeah, I know you didn't say it already is a 10/10, but you're still getting more hyped than you should be after Gen VI. Fool me once, etc.
>>26934544
he meant the game is already open world.
>>26931941
Open World is just one way of doing games you know, it's not some perfection everything has to reach.
An open world pokémon game would suck.
>>26934694
But aren't Pokemon games already open world?
>>26934683
Not the same guy, but I think it's fine to get hyped for this gen. What they're showing us is way better than what they were showing back during the leak season of Gen VI.
>tfw back then we were hyped because you could fucking sit in benches
>>26934683
I wasn't hyped before the release of xy though, given I was a hardcore spritefag back then. In regards for getting hyped for vidya I don't feel like I've been fooled yet.
These is going to be the best Pokemon games
>>26934694
>An open world pokémon game would suck.
No it wouldn't, shill
Open world are indeed not adapted to every kind of game (lookin at you MGS), but it's by far the most adapted to a game like pokemon
You're just a pathetic faggot trying to defend GF laziness
>>26934730
Even better than XY?
>>26934705
Not really. Open world is something like Skyrim, Pokémon is a standard JRPG world.
>>26934712
I dunno man, XY managed to get me pre-release, the big jump to 3D, Megas (which I was super weary of conceptually but it was definitely interesting at least), riding Pokémon (one of which could jump over LEDGES!), etc.
The 3D ended up being underwhelming, riding Pokémon were only in a couple spots and anything that wasn't Gogoat sucked, and half of all Megas were given to Pokémon that were already good enough without them and they seemingly killed cross-gen evolution forever, Sylveon doesn't count, but at the time it seemed like something to be hyped over.
Meanwhile, I still haven't seen anything I liked with S&M that isn't graphics or new Pokémon design. If anything they're going out of their way to show me shit I don't like, like the type effectiveness hint crap. If they don't show me something gameplay-related to soothe my fears that these games will make XY look like Platinum, I cannot in the slightest get hype for them.
>>26934549
Yes and I was replying to you saying
>inb4 it's Santalune Forest 2.0 AKA Viridian Forest 3.0
Which implies that YOU think its a forest when I know that its a god damn cave.
>>26934082
no grassias?
>>26934814
>The 3D ended up being underwhelming
Didn't play the games and I'd like to know why do people say this. Were the graphics really that bad? SM uses the same models for the Pokemon and they look fucking great, and everything I saw of XY/ORAS didn't look too bad.
>>26934880
The Pokemon models are excellent. The overworld suffers from bad textures and jaggies. It's not that bad considering the hardware but it's not good.
>>26934880
The overworld is what was underwhelming, I should say. S&M have massively improved the overworld though. It wasn't unplayable but it was meh at best.
I'm not that big a fan of the battle models too, but I know it's because of bad animations on certain Pokémon, not bad model quality.

>he meant the game is already open world

>Were the graphics really that bad?
Not as bad as gen 5, but far as good as promized
>>26935005
Gen 5's graphics (specifically overworld graphics since that's the topic at hand, I know the animated battle sprites are controversial) are a direct improvement from Gen 4's, though.
>>26931914
inb4 we only see that camera angle for that in that exact position and the moment the player moves it changes to a more angled top down view
>>26931914
I hope the Pokedex isn't overloaded like in XY. It's stupid how almost every regional mammal, bird, and pseudo is obtainable in the maingame.
Pt and BW2 had the best regional dexes.
>>26932471
>If this is all they need to hype you up then i feel sorry for you
Considering the world is the only thing holding Pokemon back?
Yes, it's more than enough.
>>26935293
Honestly I disagree. As far as I'm concerned the bigger the dex the better. I understand that to some extent it makes the region less distinct in some ways but the sheer replayability it offers makes it worth it for me.
>>26932501
Those cave walkways were unique
>>26934130
The image is called "cave" on the official site.
>>26931941
>open world
God no that only works in MMORPGS.
>>26934130
I don't think it's a forest, the whole thing looks too rocky.
I won't rule out the possibility that it's a cave under a forest or field though.
>>26934814
>Gogoat
>Not Skiddo
Gogoat sucked too anon
>>26935612
XY was a blur to me, I probably did mean Skiddo, sorry.
>>26934814
The type effectiveness only happens after you've previously fought (or was it capturing that did it?) that specific Pokemon already.
It's a thematic addition to the Rotom Pokedex because Professor Kukui studies Pokemon moves and he's the one who gives you the Rotom Pokedex, I believe.
>>26935736
It's previously fought, but it only happens after one (1) (一) battle, which isn't enough for a player to naturally determine the typing of a Pokémon if it's not obvious (like it's easy to see Pikapek is going to be a Flying-type, but would you know Sonichu is a Steel-type after one battle?)
I don't fucking care what it is, but yeah is very pretty
>>26931924
>>26931938
>>26932270
>>26931914
I want to lick that guy's neck.
>>26931914
I know this will probably just be some random segment of the game, but I really wish we could ride a select few pokemon. Like Arcanine, Ponyta etc
Yeah, I was disappointed when I saw that picture. Not a big fan of Stoutland but would love to have an Arcanine or Ponyta/Rapidash to ride on.
