5th Gen Your opinions on the 3-D aspects of the game.

[loliwin]

I always knew that they needed to really improve the graphical powers in Pokemon games, and this game looks absolutely amazing, so far. XD They've really advanced in graphics havent they? :)

And Im also glad they got animated sprites then doing it all in 3D. It'd be another Pokemon XD: Gale Of Darkness. :(

i say its about tim they did this. in fact i was sort of hoping they did this for HGSS but guess not. but im glad its like this now. its very very awesome :D
and the new battle scenes are amazing:D

 

[EmeraldSerenade]

Its quite interesting... Its a new step in the right direction for Pokemon ^^
I just hope the effects aren't too crazy, haha.

The battle game play looks fantastic.

I don't know about 3d overworlds, I'm old school and I like my adventures flat, and 2d. But the battling is too awesome... They've given every Pokemon idle animations and expanded the battle screen for attack sequences at least 5 inches, giving the battle feel a more exciting outlook. I wonder what else they've got in store for us... :P

 

[Massai]

Loving it, my only concern is it looks like a lack of your lead poke following you - it's honestly my favorite thing about HG/SS - maybe they can still work it in, if not, there's always Gray? Give them time to work out the 3D poke following.

 

[VirtualBlock]

Hm... I admit they actually improve it alot. Oh snap!!! Maybe it were the OW Sprites that made me choose "Hate 'em"!!
Oh.. I guess if they made the sprites more in place it would look pretty good... ><

 

[Vrai]

Awesome graphics are awesome.

I think that each generation can really be defined by the change in graphics, and B&W is no exception.

 

[humanguy2000]

When I first saw the Black & White screenshots, I thought it looked really odd.... But yesterday, I looked at the screenies again and they look really good! ...But the overworlds just remove the 3d feeling. It would've been good if they used the 3d view from HG/SS that can be accessed through cheating.

I think its great that they are moving forward with the graphics and all (improvement is better than nothing at all). I just wish the Sprites were 3d as well. ^^

 

[Barney.]

I really don't care..As long as the gameplay stays the same and we get new pokemon, I'm fine.

This is my view on the subject. Like I said in the OW thread, I am a huge fan of the 3d look. My gripe is that the OW characters just look a bit too out of place being 2d.

I love how there is a city aspect to the game now, like New York or Chicago.

Hopefully all the cities are like this and you start out in a big city and now some small town.

 

[chikorita125]

the 3D improvments of the game i like since Diamond and pearl,

 

[JAK3]

At first I didn't like the look of it, but now, I'm very amazed, and will definitely make the game different from others! I like the camera angles now, that was the part I didn't like about it. I'm sure it will be something worth waiting for.

 

[OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire]

I like the graphics and like the fact that they are pushing a old handheld's potential more rather than make a new one and not push the new one's capacity plus it means we get to save money due to us not having to buy a new handheld!.

 

[Ayselipera]

For me it will just take some getting used to. After years of having a semi aerial view of everything it will be a little weird looking at the game from a new perspective. I'm not saying that's bad though I just need to start looking at it more and more until it looks natural. Overall my hopes are more on the Pokemon then the graphics.

 

[.ιиsσмиιαc.]

I hate them. They could have done a much better job with it, or maybe everything is still a BETA.

 

[war rock exe]

Who cares!? There's new Pokemon!!

 

[TheAppleFreak]

I'm a bit mixed. While I'm excited about the games, and the 3D is absolutely beautiful, I feel that the complete 3D might be going a little too far away from the old style of games that I grew up on. At least we keep the movement grid...

 

[Cherrim]

I liked the 3D in DPPt. It was tasteful--you might not even notice it if you didn't look closely and that's what I liked about it. It gave depth to the game but wasn't distracting.

I don't... like what I've seen of the 3D in BW though. D: It's all you notice in every screen and I hate the warped sprites and the camera angle and ick. ;_; I'm hoping it'll look better as you actually play but I thought that initial video that came out showing the protag walking in a circle around the buildings was ugly. :/ I guess we'll see but I'm very wary of the 3D. It won't affect my purchase decision but I hope it won't end up affecting my final opinion of the game.
