>>41591728>i defended the points made for XY and ORAS hereA lot of us did, because we just saw it as a small quality drop at the time but had hopes that everything would get better like it always did. Turns out we were terribly wrong and everything progressively went to shit.
>>41592637I can already hear the rage and the shills trying to defend it saying it'd be better than Platinum
>The routes were always too long anyways, they had to get cut>Same for Mt. Coronet, no kid would be able to traverse it, think about the kids!>I prefer having Barry stopping me every 5 minutes, it allows him to get more character development>Who cares if there's no Sinnoh BF and the tower was ported from SwSh, I like Leon and his Charizard>Nobody explored the Resort Area anyways, having the tower and a small cave for Heatran is enough>The Distortion Episode was waaaaaay better than just exploring a maze or alternate dimension to get Giratina. People talked for 1 whole hour, I fought 3 guys with 1-2 pokemon each, entered the Distortion Hallway, and was gifted a Giratina.>The Wild Underground is leagues better than the old underground, I just need to press A on a shiny spot on the wall to get items instead of mining>The original games didn't have 400 mons available without transferring, so it's objectively more than before
