im not excited for pokemon z because i have zero faith in gamefreak, as we all should at this point, but i do hope it is good. i do hope it’s another chance for kalos to really wow people. i remember getting Y back when it came out, and it was. Fine. the most Fine pokemon game i’ve ever played, then and now. it had the unfortunate fate of being a follow up to black/white 2 (some of the best pokemon games ever made) and being the mainline transition to 3D (something they’re still struggling with tbh.) they suffer a lot from those growing pains, a lot of x/y feels underdeveloped or bland. but i really hope this game gives the region new life because all the pieces were there.

#pokemon company bring back the 2d games im no longer asking #the 3d games are ugly!!! can we all admit this!!! they look like dogshit!!! they run like dogshit!!! it isnt worth it to have them in 3D!!!#god at least go to 2.5D or something. the team clearly isnt big enough or skilled in making 3D games!!! esp under the time crunch they #usually get stuck in!!!#(which is not a knock against the people who actually have to make these games. these are very difficult products to develop.)#like. not to be nostalgic or anything. actually no fuck that i will be. because im nostalgic For 3D games too. i played pokepark. its a #gorgeous game for the wii. it really is. its also much smaller in scope.#but anyway. i miss the spritework. for the trainers for the locations for the pokemon. the visuals really did peak with black/white + 2.#those are some damn gorgeous games. they really are. and while pokemon *has* had some pretty moments since. they’re vastly outnumbered by #the game looking. boring at best. or bad at worst.#sorry im up on my soapbox. we deserve better pokemon games. most companies would be embarrassed to have that shit outline effect in the #caves that arceus had to be in their betas. pokemon put it in the final release of the game.
