Maybe the answer is not to do 3D games. Every indie monster collection clone that I can think of is 2D, isometric, or, at most, 2.5 D. AAA developers need to say that some games work fine in 2D, cut down the bloated graphics budget, and focus more on gameplay.
TemTem is 3D but they had a bigger team and budget than my beloved Cassette Beasts.
I have not played it. I thought that it was 3D graphics with 2D movement and a zoomed out, fixed angle perspective, the same style as Pokemon Let's Go. That is much easier to do than the full 3D of Sword, Arceus, and Scarlet.
