...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

Player's House

The Player's House is actually textured in this build when compared to previous ones. Your room still looks drastically different when compared to the final, however. Additionally, the Pikachu & Eevee posters are significantly different both in their placement and actual visuals, with Eevee in particular becoming far more refined in the final. In the final, they're also taped onto the wall, whereas this isn't the case here. A poster on the left wall also appears to be a rough paint-job of the real-life London Tower Bridge. The camera and lighting is also significantly different. Interestingly, the build depicted in the February 2019 reveal trailer for the game appears to maintain the placement of the Pikachu/Eevee poster from the prototype, suggesting that it was changed at sometime thereafter.
