Nintendo The new work "Pokémon Legend: Arceus" has achieved good results after its launch, and sold 6.5 million sets in the first week! The doctor wrote an article to introduce this game before. Although the product has added innovative elements, the playability has been greatly improved, but it cannot be denied that the picture performance of "Pokémon Legend: Arceus" is not very good. Certain details (eg: vistas, water surface effects, etc.) are even fail in 2022!
As a veteran Pokemon fan, you may not care about the so-called game graphics, as long as the style is cute. However, there is a very pertinent statement, that is, "Although the game screen is not everything, the screen performance of "Pokémon Legend: Arceus" can be better!" Can GameFreak make the picture better? obviously works! This has nothing to do with the so-called hardware configuration of Switch .
Because 2017's "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" surpassed "The Legend of Pokémon: Arceus" in some details, such as the rendering of distant scenery etc. In addition, the doctor also has a basis, that is, some amateur players can make "Pokémon Legend: Arceus" more detailed, clear and natural by installing various optimization mods (MODs)! Players can do it, the official can't, I don't believe it!
"The Legend of Pokémon: Arceus" on the Switch platform cannot install modules. You need to crack the Switch or use a PC emulator. There are certain technical thresholds and legal risks. The doctor personally does not recommend everyone to try it, but we can Take a look at the sharing of enthusiastic netizens. After the player "PurpleThunderNE" installed 17 optimized mods, his "Pokémon Legend: Arceus" has a new look!
Here is a brief introduction to the mods, such as: HD Texture Overhaul mod can improve the quality of game textures, Trees Draw Distance mod can allow the game to display trees in the distance, Water Improvement mod It can improve the ripple effect on the water surface, and the Sky Improvement module can improve the quality of aerial scenes (such as clouds and moon), etc. Anyway, with the blessing of various modules, "The Legend of Pokémon: Arceus" does look better, more like a product in 2022.
Interestingly: In addition to improving the picture quality, players have also made various mods that are convenient to play, such as: unlimited stamina, control options adjustment, hidden collectibles, increased swimming duration, Increase climbing speed, increase map markers, etc., and the creators are also continuously introducing new mods to make players more comfortable and cool to play! The above information tells us: Maybe GameFreak thinks it is unnecessary, but "Pokémon Legend: Arceus" can indeed be more beautiful!
Dr. Personally think: Let alone other, the water surface effect of "Pokémon Legend: Arceus" is really not good, there is a lot of room for optimization. even if you don't care,Better picture quality is always a good thing. Of course, the graphics of "Pokémon Legend: Arceus" are much better than "Pokémon: Sword/Shield", and the developers are not lazy.
