That's the point. Pokemon could be successful in the same way but they're saying Game Freak doesn't want to change how they do things.

Omg I'm an idiot, I completely misread what they were saying, I thought they were saying gf needed to focus more on story and the gameplay being stagnant doesn't help. I'll chalk that up to morning brain.

Why would they downgrade in terms of success?

Shouldn't they have learned the lesson from Pokémon Go? That had absolutely no story that I was aware of.

That wasn't made by Game Freak, that was Niantic.
