Pokemon: When Fandom & Consumerism Limit a Franchise
Hello everybody and welcome to season two of Some Patches Required! If you're new to the show, we're happy to have you! If you're already familiar with our particular brand of games-industry coverage/conversations, we're thrilled that you stuck around. It's only going to get better from here.
This time around, we're talking about the endearing mess that is Pokemon; specifically Scarlet and Violet. While we both enjoyed the game(s), its flaws are hard to ignore. Moreover, they say a lot about the industry at large, consumerism, innovation, fandom, and much, much more.
Please, enjoy.
