nah this picture makes bellibolt look more like chansey than he really does. he is way rounder, especially his hands and feet and his smile is wider.
This is what I've noticed and why I say its lazy. The designers could have used Chansey as a base model for making Bellibolt. Its doesn't take anyrhing away from Bellibolt though. Bellibolt seems to resemble a frog purse, which are popular in Japan. I know its going to be a hit with many people.
yea i get that. i personally dont mind it since i like cute stuff ^^ but i bet the ones they wont show in trailers will be less merch and more normal pokemon haha
You mean James Turner? Yes, I know he has left the department. I don’t know if he has a replacement, but I suppose Moxie2D, Elesteva076, or Oscar Belmonte could get promoted. In fact, I’d like to see fans be involved in future projects.
A little late reply, but all the stuff you talked about in regards to Faragiraf was really interesting to read man. Would be cool to hear/read your thoughts on more stuff as it comes out
I liked GameXplain's video more, which I found more extensive.
didn't game explain's video literally say that you can buy more clothes outside of the uniforms though? like shirts, gloves and even phone cases? they might all be school/uniform themed, but it sounds like you're not actually restricted to just four outfits for the entire game.
I went through xplains video again and yes, it sounds like that is the case (its number 7 of 20). If we do end up having more clothing customisation unrelated to school I will immediately change out of the uniform once I'm able to. Xplain didnt really show what kind of clothing that is available to us which is why I'm still a little skeptical. If its more than SwSh I will be really happy.
Well, Serebii did say that Nemona told him to go check on Arven after he beat Brassius so there is still an order that the game recommends you going in. However, with the open world now you can just go whatever order that you want instead of what is dictated by the game. Its the best of both worlds in my opinion. Those who hated handholding can play the game however they want. Those who want a certain direction can play like the past games.
unfortunately, that's the kind of direction that only minimally helps. genshin (and arceus, if we want to keep it pokemon themed) does give you objectives and tells you where to go, but it doesn't usually 'make' you. sometimes, areas will be locked off because you haven't done certain quests or received certain items etc. but for the most part you're free to explore the entire region without needing to do any of the tasks. it was a problem i ran into a fair amount with arceus, which resulted in my team being over-leveled for a lot of the game, and since i don't think level-scaling is present in this game, it's likely going to be a repeat issue. i think the better compromise would've been having a set route (city a, city b, city c etc.) but having the luxury to explore the entirety of each city/area before you completed the story needed to access the next. hardly what i would call hand-holding, but it provides somewhat of a safety net and direction for people like me who have a bad tendency to neglect the story in favor of exploring every nook and cranny. (as for why i do it, i could not to tell you. i think it's some form of 'fomo', wanting to make sure i don't miss any items or puzzles etc.)
