>>39110159There was a great amount of content. The overworld wilderness looked very nice.
However the starters were incredibly bad. The consistency in quality starter design has really taken a nose dive post gen 5.
The wilderness exploration was minimal. I really enjoyed the look and feel of what we got but once you beat the game, that was it. They would have been amazing if there was more to explore.
The story was an absolute abomination. Pokemon really started to feel like a clusterfuck mismash starting in gen 5. I was never a fan of gen 4, but gen 5 is when they really jumped the shark.
Ever since, GF took all the worst elements from gen 5, and abandoned the great parts.
Storylines, character design, and world building has gone way into retardsville.
Wilderness sections have become soulless cooridoors.
Games lack engaging content.
GF substitutes cheap half baked gimmicks for actual effort taking Pokemon to that next level.
Failure to balance the meta, instead making it more broken with each successive installment, adding in broken op legendaries that look like they were designed on deviantart
Masuda should have stopped at gen 3 in my opinion. It's been a slow death ever since. He's out if touch. Unambitious. Caters to the worst common denominator. Has no inspiration or soul. Has no taste. And can competently utilize the infinite resources at his disposal to develop a video game.
