>>51441692>I didn't say "modern Gen 2 fans because Gen2 fans are almost extinct. The people who grew up with Gen 2 mostly left the franchise at this point.That's basically what happened to me. I stopped buying the games a long time ago. I come back to /vp/ for the first time in 3 gens and this place is a fuckfest. Everyone is just throwing shit at each other because ME GEN BETTER, and endless bait threads with people endlessly trying to prove points to no one in between threads of "I'm gonna fuck this human" and "I'm going to fuck this pokemon" ad nauseam.
>>51441745I don't know how you can consider Gen 1 the superior game in every metric. I agree Gen 2's level curve is shit, but Gen 1 is held together with toothpicks and spit. At least Gen 2 upgraded to popsicle sticks and glue. Both are on the same level for me, I just like my color and two explorable regions.
