Anybody see the rise of e10 and t games for Pokemon?

MajorBrendan

I looked up on reddit on the possibility of a rise of Rated e10 and T games for Pokemon. And given present circumstance, I honestly don't know what to think anymore.

I don't think it's likely that there'll be more mature Pokemon games. A big part of the fanbase is little kids.

The rated system is a purely consumerist system and shouldn't dictate who gets to play the game

nope Pokémon games have been rated e for ages and again they have a young audience as well as an audience who have been there for a long time and they want people from the young audience to eventually become a consumer of the games that consistently buy new games so they make the games available for everybody to play and enjoy

understandable. But it does go to dark themes before. Exhibit A, Pokken Tournament.

tbh I do think some spinoffs might get marked e10 in the future but I think that will be the farest they will go they will keep mainline at e

Maybe but better be prepared for the worst than to stay safe all the time.

The ratings will never change, but they will occasionally portray dark topics that kids won't understand (like the entirety of the Sun/Moon games for example).

you'd be surprised in how quick companies will change their minds.

It is more likely for a Mario game to release on Steam than for a Pokemon game to be E10 or T.

Don't be too sure of it. They already done it with Pokken Tournament and Pokemon Rumble Blast. What other spin off games do you think will get that rating range and how long to see?
