>>39891064It's not a solid remake in terms of authenticity to the originals and it doesn't have enough nostalgia-pandering to grab the attention of real genwunners, but at the same time it's filled with bizarre decisions that don't seem to be designed for anybody, like redoing the map nearly 1:1 (but worse) while simultaneously chickening out of staples like Blue/Green actually being the fucking rival and not some weird side character. It obviously doesn't appeal to competitive or modern players because they gimped the battle system, and I can't speak for Go (I don't play it) but I can't see how it'd appeal to Gofags either, considering how little the gameplay crosses over and how the transfer system to LGPE is one-way.
Basically I don't know who the fuck this game is supposed to be for. It's a Kanto remake that doesn't really want to be a Kanto remake, but doesn't have enough modernities to stand on it's own either.
