It was unreasonable to expect a revolutionary core game only two years after Sun and Moon, but it is reasonable to expect them to put a few people on this side project while they build something much more ambitious. |
I think, in a way, Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee are pretty ambitious in their own right. Co-op gameplay is pretty interesting, which could be exciting for families, especially brothers and sisters who are fans of Pokemon. Integrating and even expanding Go elements in terms of capturing and raising Pokemon. Not having random encounters. Being able to ride even the biggest Pokemon around.
Its a bit interesting that they went away a bit from the usual formula of mainline Pokemon games, even if its considered a spin-off. It sounds like a spin of the mainline games, not just a complete spin-off. Kinda like Pokemon Colosseum, XD: Gale of Darkness, and a remake of Yellow bundled up altogether.
