>>25091332That's... about what I expected to hear, to be honest with you.
I don't remember all too much about my experiences in Blue, but I do remember doing nothing but buffing my player character with every item, ginseng and gummi I could find (ah, to be young again), so a lot of the postgame stuff seemed mostly simple.
SMD, on the other hand, really just lacked a lot of drive to me. I did actually do the postgame story stuff (and boy was it short), but after that, I didn't really feel much motivation to recruit Pokemon or to do the thing with the
treasure hunt, so I haven't even booted the game up since back in November or so.
Granted, I've never felt a lot of thrust to do the Sky level 1 dungeons or anything either, but the game still manages to keep me coming back, either for a quick mission here or there or so on. How often do the messages-in-bottles spawn, anyway? I basically never see them, it feels like.
