      With the current economy and weaponization and globalization of modern pokemon it’s impossible to play the old games without being harassed by advertisements of playing switch media

    Well, it never looked like that.

    I generally like these "redraw the game" images, but for some reason this Vermillion one looks terrible to me.

      these make for nice art, but would be terrible map designs for an actual game.

        isn't that what OP's pic is?
        I meant in contrast to the one I posted, which I like

          Oh, you were talking specifically to OP, and used 'this' in reference to OP image, when I read it as though you were talking about your own image.
          I was going to say. Pretty sure, that's Ecruteak, anon.

          But I agree with you. I think it has something to do with how elevation was portrayed. The cliffs don't look like they belong, and the central walkway is supposed to be going down, but looks like a pointless meander at first glance

            Yeah, I could have worded it more clearly.

            Yes, I agree. That whole area looks busy and cramped. I suppose wanted to introduce this new cliff/elevation idea, but were sticking too rigidly to the original geometry to allow for it to breathe. A modest straight path with stairs would have worked fine I think.

      This looks marvelous, got any more from this artist or in this style?

      I think it looks bad because it feels like the different styles are far more jarring, there are too many clashing colors, and the over all composition feels too spread out to look nice. It's like I'm looking at several different images rather than a single coherent one.

      Because it’s all over the place in colors, themes, biomes, etc it’s jarring

    One thing about nostalgia is that I will never have such rosy colored goggles as people who played this on day 1 did. When I look at it I just see an ugly fricking mess and mediocre RPG

    Nintendo shot themselved on the foot by going full 3d.
    The time it requires to model and animate 500+ or more pokes for each mainline game simply is too much work and time that otherwise would be spent on features/world building.
    See current state of Scarlet/Violet for reference.

    Nintendo has a few options:
    Ditch this fricking open world meme, every game nowdays is "openworld" not does a linear game fits Pokemon with large ish corridor looking zones but also to make an immersive open world thats worth the title, it takes fricking years something that does not match Nintendo since they wanna pop a pokemon game every 18months.

    The other option was eluded above would be to simply have 4/5 year pokemon game cycles with plenty of DLC in between.
    This would also cause every new pokemon game to be majorly hyped since we would get less of them but richer in content/quality, at least thats the hope.

    Now, simply about the 2d graphics, most of us grew with them and it allowed us to imagine how yhe pokemon wpuld be.
    3d pokemons look fine, however many look actually worse than during their game boy years

      LMAO
      They shot you on the head, not them. They're making literal PS2 era games and hitting sales records at the same time

    After decades of seeing Pokemon with an overhead sprite style and years of playing mods and shit, I'm honestly over seeing Pokemon like that. I want more 3D worlds and exploration with a free camera. I don't care how pretty the sprites are, I'm checked out with seeing Pokemon from that perspective.
