With Pokemon, I wouldn't say the mainline RPG series is milked, nor really the spin offs. Given the fact that there is a decent sized gap between release of mainline games (both R/S to D/P and D/P to B/W were 4 years), there are far worse offenders such as CoD where the gap between mainline games is 1 year. Where I would agree with the OP and say that to a degree Pokemon band is milked as a whole. There has been a lot of Pokemon games when one factors in the mainline series, ranger, mystery dungeon, rush, battle revolution, my pokemon farm, that typing one, etc. It's a similar situation to the Mario series. |
i think we the pokemon games the reason people believe the games are being milked is just how simaliar the games are -- really how different is the story/ game between R/B/Y -> B/W ? It is essentially the same game with more Pokemon and a few changes to some characters... people would just like a big change for the next title -- personally i wish the story could get a facelift, the way leveling works could use an upgrade (sure its great if you only use 6 - 10 pokemon in the game, but id rather see things designed a bit better for those of us who like to use a larger variety of pokemon) , Pokemon themselves really, really need to learn how to remember more than 4 abilities, 6 abilities would be a huge gameplay changer!.
