I thought the ORAS and XY overworld models were a good compromise, like they’re still smaller and more cartoonish, but they’re not quite as... squat. Plus I know it’s a meme but the fingers really are off putting. I rewatched the trailer recently and the movement of the models is mostly fine. I think if they cleaned em up a bit, and workshopped some specific areas like the hands people wouldn’t have any issue with it. We’re used to chibi models, always have been, so I think honestly it’s just that there are issues with these specific chibi models
Wasn't that old chibi style only there due to the hardware limitations? Gen 6, 7 and 8 clearly showed the direction they wanted to take with the series, and people were happy with it. It just needed some polish (new animations and general tidying up of the graphics). Suddenly going back to the old style, and not even done all that great? (See LOZLTTP for reference of a really good ChiBi game) yeah I get the anger.
