It’s too early for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

A new Pokémon game declaration is considered a joyful opportunity. I still remember to see the first trailer to wake up early in the early 2010. Pokémon X And YWhich felt like a radical change for the franchise at that time. I always look forward to the exciting few minutes that give me my first look in a new adventure that my friends and I am talking to me.

I did not have the same response when I saw the news Pokémon scarlet And PurpleWhen I turned on the digital Pokémon showcase of February, I was mostly excited to hear about the new DLC Pokémon Legends: ArsusI received that news, but then the unexpected generation nine declarations quickly overshraded it. Instead of taking out a squeeel of happiness, it made me feel a bit disappointed.

This is not because I don't think it looks fun. In contrast, I am eager to detect the Spain-inspired open world of the game with my new duck friend. This is just that it seems that it is being released very soon, the developer is not giving any time to take feedback from feedback to the developer game. Arceus And use it to develop the chain.

keep waiting

When i played Pokémon Legends: ArsusI regularly said “I can't wait to see this feature in the next mainline Pokémon game.” From freeform catching to initiative-based combat, every small twist felt as if it was auditioning for the next big RPG. At that time, my belief was that Arceus The game will allow Freak to put some space between Pokémon generations and test some new mechanics in a low-stake game. I thought we would see a proper sequel Sword And shield As soon as possible at the end of 2023, but the tow changes with a lot of life with much quality.

This is not the case. Now it is clear that the time of the game Freak was divided over the last few years because it was worked on Arceus Together with Red,PurpleThe latter will be launched this year, in which the possibility of development will already be near its final stages.

Naturally this means that the game Freak did not produce the game Arceus The response (it was launched only one month ago, so that it would be a supernatural achievement). Positive discussion about the life of that game does not guide the development, so there is little reason to believe in new sports Sword And shieldNo important Twixes will come in 2025 generations to 10 land.

I can't help, but it seems that it is an opportunity to make a lapse. After playing ArceusI am not sure that I can easily go back to more aged mechanics of some standard RPG. I loved that the catching was equally simple as throwing a ball without starting a random fight. I was thrilled when I realized that I could resume a demon's moves at any time, to relay the attacks removed to undergo without hops. I have seen a vision of a modern Pokémon game and it is strange to think that I can be backward soon.

There is a chance that some of some Arceus'The best features may still exist Red,PurpleKeeping both sports in mind, there were development at the same time, the game Freak may have created the game around some integrated changes. Even if it is so, there is no guarantee that the features are really liked by the players. Arceus Will be present here. This will be a growth shot in the dark, rather than what worked and what did not do for the players.

Dissect the cycle

Pokémon is not an annual series like Maden, but it acts like one. How with regular game Freak Game Out Games (it currently operates on a three -year cycle), is not the time to learn and change. By the time the players have played through a game and a list of complaints has already been prepared, it is already too late. The developer is already on the next project.

I was hoping that it would change. When game Freak outsourced Vikas Shiny pearl And Talented diamond For ICLA, it felt like a step towards stability. The game Freak may take longer to refine its game, while another studio maintained the money -making churning. She was a wishful thinking. Instead, the game Freak was closed by creating two huge games at the same time. The problem still remains and can be worse now.

Yes i'm excited about Pokémon Red And PurpleBut I am very much interested in what is coming after this. Generation 10 is probably going to bring the game pair that I was expecting to see after playing ArceusI will wait patiently for that day, but I can't help, but think we can get an excellent Pokémon game if the game Freak was not pumping many good people.

Pokémon scarlet And Purple Nintendo is ready to launch for switch at the end of 2022.
