The new Pokemon games will be released next week...but after that, what's going to happen?
The controversy around this new gen is massive, National Dex, Mega/Z-moves denied and whatnot (I don't know if there's something new, I'm avoiding the leaks)...it's something that has been impossibile to ignore and it'll definitely not disappear after the games launch.
Despite all the interviews where Matsuda said they're ok with the cuts, I think the feedback received so far will be enough to make Game Freaks think carefully about their next move.
So...what do you think their next move is going to be?
Will they issue a formal apology for letting their fans down? Do you think we'll have a Sword/Shield 2 or a third version with all the 1000 whatever Pokemon? Do you think they'll keep updating these games by adding the missing monsters with free DLCs, like Pokemon GO? Or do you think nothing will change and this is the road they decided to walk, no matter how faulty it might be?
Personally, I'll buy Sword because, just like Sonic, it's my personal tradition and I'll never skip a game, no matter how shitty it is...I never really cared about the cuts because I was rarely able to complete a full Pokedex...with that said, I acknowledge this generation shortcomings and I hope we'll get a richer plate next time...or with time, with free updates. I'm sure they tried, but I'm not going to raise my fanboy shield for them...this time they deserve all the non-death threat criticism they get.
I'll say, knowing how atrocious Little Town Hero was, I hope they'll think 20 times before working on another side-project
