Hints For Core Pokemon 2019 From Photorealistic Pokemon to Open World

Well guys, some exciting new hints have sprung up for the core Pokémon game next year! 

   While lots of people were happy with the lets go graphics, others were hoping for a more realistic, Pokken look.

Speaking to IGN, Director Junichi Masuda said,

We really wanted to, at least for this first game, make the visuals as well as the audio just feel kind and inviting, not intimidating at all. So even for the music side, we've used more aggressive rock or techno styles in the previous games. We purposefully avoided those in this game just to make it really a warm and inviting experience.

The Lead Game Designer Kensaku Nabana elaborated on this, explaining how the team had experimented with photorealistic visuals before Masuda encouraged the team to go with friendlier aesthetics:

Usually, when you would have much more power with the Switch and taking it into HD, I think the natural tendency is to go for a more photorealistic approach. In the earliest days of development, we actually explored that direction quite a bit.

But we got the direction from Masuda...to go for this more kind and soothing and inviting experience with the visuals. After some experimentation, we just realized the more realistic, more photorealistic direction just wasn't really working for what we were trying to do.

But wait, there's more! Lots of fokes (myself included!) are really hopeing for the core Pokémon game to be open world, and Game Freak director Junichi Masuda has given me hope!

Well you know in general, I always want to be kind of facing new challenges and trying to you know, do new things with Pokémon. You know it's a different matter whether players will actually enjoy that kind of playstyle, but really you know, things like setting up an AI so that you know real world Pokémon appear, or different ways to appreciate the game, I'm always kind of thinking how to approach the Pokémon series from a different aspect so, in that sense, it's still on the cards." 



Not out of the cards! That's a big deal! Who knows, the next Pokémon game could be the vary best!          So what do you think of the next Pokémon game possibly being photorealistic Pokémon and an open world? Let us know in the comments.
