As you no doubt know, the release of Pokemon Scarlet/Violet has received mostly positive press response and plenty of constructive criticism. Obviously the games could have taken a bit longer to develop as they were technically very demanding on day one. Fans shared this sentiment, asking The Pokemon Company to work on patches to fix various issues.
Pokemon Scarlet/Violet has arrived in the realm and Pokemon fans have been talking about the overall quality of recent Pokemon games, with many saying Pokemon Co. needs to slow things down to ensure quality releases. This will result in fewer Pokemon games over the years, but hopefully higher quality games.
Pokemon Company Chief Operating Officer Takato Utsunomiya overheard these conversations in the fandom. In an interview with Dr ComicBook.comUtsunomiya first revealed the idea of ​​slowing down the release pace to customize each upcoming title a bit more.
“If you look at the past, I think the path we’ve taken so far has generally been this steady release. We’ve always been releasing products at a pretty steady pace, you could say. That’s how we’ve worked up until now. I think we still work that way. We do, but as the development environment changes, there’s more conversation about how we can continue to do that while making sure we deliver high-quality products.”
