under communism, there will not be "yearly pokemon games" - there will be one pokemon game per console generation, which will fall in line with the implementation of the nintendo seven year plan.
this single pokemon game will receive a yearly free expansion-sized update which will contain some combination of new regions, 100+ new pokemon and/or new mechanics per update, and quarterly free patches/QOL updates
What is happening? im going to cry. Stop saying awesome things that aren't going to happen
also the removal of the battle tower/battle frontier was revisionist
State sponsored Poffin distribution sites.
I doubt it. Using the analogy of the East-German car, the Trabant, the game will have a very low price by mandate, which isn't able to cover the costs of development, which, in combination with very little allocation of further funds, will lead to an absolute crawl in terms of development.
If you want to experience your dream update cycle, play No Man's Sky, they have been releasing free content for years now. Java Minecraft is also consistently releasing new updates for free.
The material conditions of East Germany are definitely applicable to an imaginative world were global communism is achieved and people still want play new pokemon games because communism bad or something.
East and West Germany is the closest we've ever come to being able to directly compare "communist" and "capitalist" dogmas. With everything that is already going wrong with government-led initiatives, it's ludicrous to assume that a completely government-controlled society would have alot going for it.
Under communism, we will invent a time machine that will allow us to perfectly replicate East Germany in every country across the world
This jokester thinks you need to pay people to motivate them to make a pokemon game
Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead is pretty much what they're describing and it gets multiple updates a day. People don't need to be paid to make cool things they like if the materials are purely intellectual. The internet used to be populated by lots of open source applications like that.
