Pokemon can be so much more.

Agree with the title,

You know the game. The one every child in the late 90's had in their minds, yet even here in 2014, no one can perfectly articulate. That open world Pokemon game, where you're participating in real time hack and slash, almost Devil May Cry-meets-Legend of Zelda-like combat. Using the Pokemon you caught and trained with the moved you specifically costomized and chose to get the best results in your matches, you adventure through this Pokemon world as you've never seen it before. Climbing mountains. Sailing oceans. Flying unmanned skies. Being hoisted by the strings of an epic campaign with an epic score and epic boss battles until you've finally beaten this epic of a game. Traveling the land, you meet a mixture of both NPC trainers and real ones alike, all in the same world, much like how Destiny does it. That game. That game that just won't be.

Heavily disagree with this. I don't want open-world (not in its most literal definition at least), I definitely DEFINITELY don't want hack and slash, I don't want MMO and I don't want Destiny. Please never make this, Game Freak (edit: or anyone else since we all know Game Freak would never ever pull off an ambitious project).

I want an open world in the same way that the core games are open world, just translated to a 3D game. I don't understand how one can like Pokemon, which is a top down open world game, but not agree with the idea of the same thing in a 3D 3rd person game. We have to agree to disagree on hack and slash games. I find turn based battling inferior to real time battles in every way, and hack and slash has the most "Pokemon-like" complexity of any fighting system in 3D gaming. I don't want an MMO either. Destiny isn't an MMO. It just has other players populating your world in a way that isn't intrusive to what you're doing, which is what I want.

What is "more" to you? What do you think Pokemon should be doing? What is it's potential in your eyes?
