I was really surprised they decided to use Kalos for the next Legends game. I was sure it’d be Johto. I’m not sure what to think about it; Legends Arceus felt like The Pokemon Company was finally realizing that wild pokemon should be… wild. This new game looks like it’s much more modern, though - how can they capture that same feeling of expedition and exploration in a developed landscape?
Edit: Apparently it’s set entirely within Lumiose City. I’m pretty convinced now that it’s going to have nothing in common with the previous Legends game, which is a real shame. All that game needed was a bit more attention - that a sequel would’ve allowed for - and it would have been the best representation of pokemon ever.
There’s a reason all the kids in the late-90’s ran around their respective playgrounds pretending that ferocious wild pokemon were attacking them; that’s what everyone imagined future games would be like. But that was back when the games were only held back by the gameboy hardware, rather than The Pokemon Company’s current unwillingness to give games the developmental resources they need.
Have you ever tried to get rid of a Rattata infestation? They’re tricky little guys that thrive in the chaos of a city.
Maybe we’ll be sent on colonizing expeditions lol
Curious if they will manage to create a game more fun/refreshing than Palworld.
Legends Arceus definitely was the most fun/refreshing Pokemon game in years though, and they’re taking their time with the release by waiting till 2025, so my hopes are up.
Glad to see Mega’s bringing a return,
instead of whipping up some new Gigantamax/Terastal bs…
hope they will expand upon the amount of Mega’s!TFW Game Freak almost completely ignores Unova and goes straight to Kalos in the remake/reimagining order. Everything else so far gets remakes and/or new games. Unova gets not even half a DLC (Indigo Disk was as much about Paldea and Kitakami as it was about Unova).
EDIT: TBF, Johto is overdue as well, since its remake came all the way back in gen 4.
Ah, so that’s what the url thing is for
