Star Ocean The Second Story R graphics not HD 2D

When Star Ocean: The Second Story R was revealed, some may have thought that the game is using an HD-2D art style like Octopath Traveler and Triangle Strategy. But while the two are similar in some ways, they’re actually different.

Producer and director Yuichiro Kitao clarified things in a recent interview with Famitsu. Kitao explained that the backgrounds “were made with real time 3D, and the characters were drawn with a special shader in a way that really sticks in the player’s memory.”

The Pokemon Company chief operations officer Takato Utsunomiya has again commented on Pokemon designs and Game Freak specifically.

Utsunomiya recently said in an interview that coming up with new ideas on that front “is an area that Game Freak really excels in.” Another aspect of creativity stems from the fact that younger staff are now becoming a part of the company and are “creating new Pokemon or coming up with new ideas for Pokemon”.
