Honestly it's less "this is insane!!" and more "that's a weird thing to have for this game". Like yeah the god phone was dumb but, whatever, god gonna do what god gonna do
in order to have a not sheikahslate for breath of the sinnoh wilds.
it's a game that on its face didn't necessarily
need time travel for its premise. I assume, now, that if that is the case it WILL be important in some way, sure but I'm just saying going into idk XY I'm not expecting an opening where its someone being dragged from 3000 years in the past and that someone is calem/serena.
The latest game made by the Monolith Soth runs at 378p at times (an upgrade from the 368p resolution found in XC2) so I don't know why anyone would look to them and be surprised at the lack of graphical prowess in this game. It's clear based on the other games they've assisted with that they're no Nintendo EPD.
Also just because they're on the game doesn't necessarily mean theyre doing graphical load work.
