    The director of hgss was a fan of gsc so he knew what the people wanted.

      >In that sense, it's not simply a remake - I think it's more than that
      Probably one of the greatest vidya dev quotes of all time. Now compare that to Masuda on ORAS:
      >We created a "balanced" game that was suited for our time and age, where everyone is very busy and young people have various means of entertainment. Using smartphones and other devices they can access a great number of games, so the time they dedicate to a single game is less than in the past. We didn't put the BF in ORAS for this very reason.
      I can't be the only one who thinks this is a horrible attitude to have when directing. "oh who cares because only X amount of people will like it"

        That quote was the first thing I thought of when I saw BDSP.

        It is a horrible attitude to have, and it's a horrible quote to hear as a fan who was looking forward to the games. It goes to show how at that point, it was no longer about making something they were passionate about for people to enjoy, it was about making a product to sell, and they cut effort in proportion to expected fiscal performance.

        You could say they should have stepped away from development at the point the attitude began to shift, but I bet there's some contractual frickery keeping each and every party involved anchored to a money cow that they all hate now.

        Masuda should have let Ohmori talk about it instead of taking the blame for him

          in fairness, working with sprites was always going to be easier than working with models.

      He's so based. This is why HGSS are my favorite Pokemon games of all time. They really packed so much into these games.

        Pretty much all the other directors who spearheaded a B game felt like they deserved the promotion to head director over Ohmori, but maybe thats just ignorance.

      The fact that Gen Alphas and trannies (usually Unova fans) are hating on HGSS nowadays shows Masuda was right about Pokémon fans.

        See the thing is with Pokemon fans is they try to make their favorite game look better by knocking down the other games, especially other popular ones.

    I can't believe they made shiny overworld sprites for all 500+ Pokemon/altforms in HGSS, but we STILL don't have shiny PC menu sprites

        You just don’t understand the rush, and that’s fine for some people it doesn’t click.
        But I don’t think its too hard to understand that you feel far more attached to your team when they are both visually distinct and a result of countless hours of dedication.

    Doesn't RSE show you if the Starter is shiny before picking?

    never understood why, how hard is it to load the mon before picking rather than after? Was it truly just because of Morimoto?

      If I already have that shiny starter, just reset, but if I don't have it, just go with it despite not being the one I wanted.

    >introduces shiny locking in the following games

    Someone saw this supremely based feature and decided it was a mistake that needed to be prevented from ever happening again.
