As someone who started with Red/Blue all the way at the beginning, but has grown tired with the formula, I agree Arceus was exactly what I always wanted, but it was also too little too late. It was cool that it finally got to that point, but they're so far behind the rest of the industry. It easily could have been made 10 years before and it still wouldn't be ahead of any trends.
Its obviously a game for children, and that's great. I loved them when I was a child too. I just wish they'd put more effort into it. They make stupid amounts of money, yet they can't even try to innovate.
