I mean, kids can enjoy UP but that doesn't mean adults can't do the same. I've never been a fan of adult reimaginings of things, as that always assumes the originals lack charm just for being accessible to kids. Furthermore, instead of one singular storyline, there will be many sidequests and secret storylines to discover. Furthermore, progression through the game will revolve around opening up new areas.
I intend to solve this issue by introducing starters that do not fit the standard type wheel. The same tired game structure is used in every core Pokémon game.
Game structure is formulaic: Start in a small town, meet a tree-themed professor, get a fire/water/grass starter, get a PokéDex, defeat the eight gyms, defeat the bad guys, defeat the Elite Four, etc. Characters will also experience development, showing their growth (or decline) over the course of the game. This includes the protagonist, rival, antagonists, and supporting characters. I intend to solve this problem by giving the protagonist a voice and personality, as well as making characters seem as much like real people as possible instead of forcing each one into a character archetype. I intend to solve this problem by raising the base stat totals off all fully-evolved Pokémon to at least 400, as well as refining movesets to better reflect the play style of each Pokémon.Ĭharacters are bland: Pokémon games always tend to follow the same tropes, and characters are very seldom interesting. It is my belief that every Pokémon is entitled to a moveset that complements its stats and vice-versa. Poor balance: Core Pokémon games may seem well-balanced on the surface, but once you start digging into stats and movesets, it is clear that some Pokémon are way better than others.
Apex will not be brutally difficult, but it will require players to make conscientious choices about their team and play style. Personally, I think Pokémon could benefit from a steeper difficulty curve. Low Difficulty: Most Pokémon games are geared towards younger audiences, meaning they are typically very easy to finish. The developer also sees Apex as a way of "solving" the problems they have with the core franchise, such as: There are lots of small details hidden throughout the game, as well as secret areas and items that reward meticulous players. Playing through the game haphazardly will get you into trouble.Īlso, this game is for people who prefer to take their time in games to explore their environment and uncover hidden details. Furthermore, the game is intended to be somewhat difficult, meaning that you will need to think about your strategies and make conscientious choices about your team in order to progress. The game contains some adult dialogue (some swearing) and themes (death, abandonment), and some minor horror elements. Pokémon Apex is developed with an adult Pokémon fan in mind.
