Unbelievable what 15 years of gaming evolution look

You see that mountain over there, you can walk to it.
ID: h9hqg7vID: h9hqw6cWhoa whoa whoa, let's not get crazy
ID: h9hwg4lfirst game I experienced this in was Asheron's Call.
You see something, you could walk to it, excluding one small island which was surrounded by water (had to take a portal to reach it).
It's such a cool experience to have a world where you don't enter a zone by watching a loading screen but rather by just running.

7/10. Not enough trees
ID: h9h48mgI agree every game should have at least 10 trees. 7 is simply not enough.
ID: h9h7e2qActually, I've seen a few research articles suggesting that 9 trees is the perfect number.
ID: h9hjibeHow did ES4 make their trees? Glad you asked! They used a program called SpeedTree that my dad was the sole salesperson for from the very beginning up until a decade or so later. You can see the SpeedTree logo on the back of the game case. ES4 was the first big title to feature it, but it's still used in tons of games and movies.
ID: h9hro45Tell your dad thanks. I loved Oblivion's trees and after a quick look on Wikipedia many other games that use Speedtree.
ID: h9hns22I think almost every open world game on the PC uses SpeedTree for trees and has for the past 10-20 years.
ID: h9hmrglWhat do they do now? More than just trees, right? Lots of games use it, but I noticed that cyberpunk uses it too, maybe there's trees outside the city? Haven't gotten that far.
ID: h9hrcsySame speedtrees as the asset for unity too? We use it
ID: h9hhvfnAm I the only person here wondering why that one tree, and no other tree, has a shadow?
ID: h9hogn9If you played sword shield then you would know its the draw distance where a snorlax standing in the open will suddenly appear ten feet from it.

Legend has it that they are talking the billions they make with each pokemon game and working hard to create a second tree model, which we might see by 2027
ID: h9howm4Seriously, the tree models from brilliant diamond and shining pearl look like the ones from black and white from 11 years ago smh.
ID: h9huezcbillions they make with each pokemon game
Found the "problem". Why even both putting forth the effort at this point? People will slurp it all up no matter what. Sword and Shield was missing attack animations for the starter pokemon, still sold a million copies
ID: h9ho7m7Now i’m thinking of all the devs trying to get through the day, just trying to get Pokemon out, so they can go home and secretly work on their passion project tree model to one day show the world.

I just started playing oblivion again today, man I missed that game.
ID: h9hp94pSo many fond memories of oblivion! I remember stumbling upon the unicorn and being totally surprised! I should really give it another go!

You guys expect too much from the top selling video game franchise of all time
ID: h9hz9azIt actually is the best selling franchise of all time. Not just video games.
ID: h9i3xv5It's the most profitable media franchise in history with over 100 billion in total revenue. Star Wars doesn't even come close.
ID: h9i0ig9the games are just there to get that sweet sweet and much more profitable merch/f2p spinoffs/anime/tcg money
ID: h9i1gyzI remember seeing someone try to explain why it's somehow impossible for Game Freak to create a game with good graphics. He sounded like he knew what he was talking about but nothing he said made any sense because there's no reason the highest-grossing franchise of all time, which has been releasing games for 25 years couldn't have the infrastructure to make use of what modern gaming consoles can do.
ID: h9i2u7hBrainwashed themselves into thinking that so they don't feel bad about spending money every year buying the same game over and over.

Video games are similar to real life n that deforestation is a huge problem in both.
ID: h9hp86rAfter gears of war and Doom the smog has been really bad
-
Gamefreak is so genuine, when they want to milk your nostalgia, they really go all in to the point they keep the graphics from that era
ID: h9gv988Don't forget remake or port old games from the serie as well and change full price...
ID: h9h57hkThat’s a standard in this age. Just look at Skyrim. It’s been re released 5-6 times since 2011.

Looks like an ad for global warming

Pokemon is such a titan of a franchise, Gamefreak can get away with pumping out subpar games. Any criticism is simply dismissed as hate. I wish people could see the difference in quality between games like Mario Odyssey/BoTW and Pokemon.
LoA looks like a fan-made tech demo of the open-world Pokemon game we've all been craving for, but it'll have record-breaking sales regardless. The bar shouldn't be this low for the highest grossing franchise on the planet.
ID: h9i35cqThis is what happens when a combination of factors come together to create one of the biggest waste of potential ever.
Pokémon was made for underpowered handhelds for most of its life so nobody really knew what ”better” looked like, then each game is guaranteed to be successful cause it’s Pokémon so what’s the point in even trying, and the fan base just makes an exception in quality cause it’s Pokémon, it’s not supposed to have quality.
People got excited for a controllable camera. I got excited for a controllable camera in 2019. Goes to show what some of the standards were this late into the game.
ID: h9i75gnThe only part I disagree with is that nobody knew what better looked like. I watched the anime, and I played Stadium on the N64, I've had thoughts of a 3D open Pokemon game for years and years with properly animated combat. They just never seemed interested in that level of innovation.

Game warming is real.

To be fair, there's no way that the Nintendo Switch can compete with the cutting edge hardware of the Xbox 360
ID: h9hsg9wLots of people missing the sarcasm.
ID: h9hl9m7Whoa slow down there mate, or someone might take your serious answer for sarcasm and you might as well not have bothered then, eh?

Expectation for an open world Pokemon game:
Reality: Whatever that thing is
ID: h9hee0sImagine still having expectation for GF and Pokemon.
ID: h9hkhpkImagine still having expectation for GF and Pokemon
I've enjoyed what I've seen from the newer seasons of the Anime, and New pokemon snap was fun. It's really just the stuff gamefreak does that sucks

I’m usually the most optimistic one, but not with Pokemon. There’s no way Game Freak pulls this off. It’s gonna be Pokemon wandering around a huge field, doing nothing, flying Pokemon making right angle turns mid air, boring and repetitive catching mechanic, and a dumb story. They haven’t shown anything other than wandering around and sneaking up behind a pokemon that is also just wandering around and catching it.
And it’s gonna sell like crazy. Which means they’ll think it was a success and make another one.
ID: h9hryruYeah as a diehard Pokemom fan, I've been disappointed way too many times by GF now. I'm not falling for this one anymore.

It's evolving, just backwards

Why do the Pokémon games look so low effort. Oh wait this is gamefreak
