>>35545915Replaying Black 2 right now, as awful as I remember it, city is absolute cancer, tons of "gate" like areas, have to remember all the harbors but honestly as a city is worthy being visited only once, has no interesting or note worthy locations that serve a purpose and make the player want to revisit it.
Maybe only the Game Freak battles, at best.
It's amazing how the biggest city has no role in the region and is overshadowed by Nimbasa and Driftveil and even other minor towns.
Also absolutely ugly.
Shit linked features too, Unity Tower (be honest do you even remember it exists?), empty Liberty Garden in BW2 and probably something else. Even the sewers have more charm. Unova is a region that geographicaly put the whole continental USA in a NYC like map (merging national parks, other well known cities with NYC neighboorhoods sometimes) and said NYC / Manhattan turned to be absolutely disgusting. Las Vegas / Broadway Nimbasa and Texan Driftveil did much better even aesthetically.
Fuck Castelia, Sinnoh and Johto biggest cities are much better.
>>35545959Lumiose offered many services and had better aesthetics, you can grind, shop, mine pokecoins, have quests, visit museums and hotels or cafes, has relevance to the plot and so on, can be easily revisited for said services, at best you can complain about the camera which isn't something everyone does.
