Pokémon Black/Whitedirector Junichi Masuda is saddened by this year’s E3 offerings, citing a lack of originality and an overabundance of violence.
“This year, FPS war games were trend!! A lot of splatter scenes!! Blood spread everywhere. Shooting a lot, killing a lot,” he said with a charming amount of broken English. “The game developer seems get used to ‘kill’ the target. Therefore, I felt ‘how to kill’ became a focus of developing game. For that reason, target become zombie and alien …
“These targets’ savage attack and human counterattacks … It became savage contents and you never know. Mmm … It is the player who choose the game to play. As a game creator, it is little sad! Majority of the games look like a same game. There were little of original games. I felt a sense of crisis with above part.”
He might have a point, but you could argue thePokémonseries is about forcing animals into brutal bloodsports and has repeated itself about four times. So, let’s just sayeverybody’sto blame here.
