We need to hype up more Digimon Stories and Monster Hunter stories. Their narratives have so much more effort and the designs at least for Digimon can encompass a lot of creativity like Pokemon. Dragon Quest Monsters hopefully grows too
I agree with you, i don't know Monster Hunter storeis, but the digimon Story games. But i want to mention that the narrative of Pokemon mystery dungeon games is often quite good. Super Pokemon Mystery dungeon had a very good story. But i doub we see a new one in the near future.
Monster Hunt Stories has some solid drama. You play as natives that try to live in harmony I'm with monsters but sometimes a monster prophecy happens and you got prevent the monster apocalypse with your monster friend and villagers while uncovering the human conspiracy behind it all. Simple common premise for children stories that's always good when the drama is executed well
Doesn't bombard you with a ridiculous amount of talking cutscenes where people say nothing like modern Pokemon games. At least since Sun and Moon but maybe all the 3DS Pokemon games started over explaining everything
The Ranger series was also really good but I don't think we'll see anymore of those since it required a stylus.
