The graphics are okay...but certainly not the leap I would expect. In some ways aspect of the graphics (and I am not just talking about textures and lighting; though those have not received as many improvements as I would have wanted either) have taken a step back, such as the re-introduction of the grid (which was removed in Sun and Moon). Honestly though for what these games are I am not overly disappointed. If they were the core RPG titles I would have been much more disappointed. Frankly, my expectations for the 2019 game are far higher. During the Q&A session after the conference they said that they have been working on the 2019 RPG since before Switch or Pokemon Go released, so I am expecting the longer development time compared to the Let's Go games to yield better results. Personally, I want more control over the games camera and more natural looking environments with Pokemon visible in the overworld (this is one thing I really like about the Let's Go games) and actually interacting with their environment. I am not expecting realism, in fact that is something which I feel would take away some of the magic from the Pokemon games, but I do hope they add better lighting and physics effects in order to make environments look more lively. |
I think Game Freak will also clean some things here and there for Let’s Go to make it feel more polished. It’s only one trailer so we can’t assume it’s going to go gold soon before November. There’s plenty of time between now and November for Game Freak and Nintendo to tweak a few things to make the game more presentable for those with more critical eyes.
Its not a huge leap, but I have a hard time seeing this as a sort of 2005 game that curl eluded to.
