Maybe I'm just blinded by nostalgia for the original R/S, but OR/AS is just bad in my eyes.
To me as a hardcore hoennfag it felt like they added things that didn't belong while removing things that just didn't needed to be changed like granite cave. Just a fuckton of tiny nuances annoyed the shit out of me too. Steven not saying "Now, bring it!", the whole bullshit that was added about hinting towards parallel universes to try and justify the game's existence in some metalore that doesn't need to be there, the game being visually unappealing to look at with the shitty gen 6 engine and taking space made for 2D and jamming it in 3D. They seem small but to me this shit adds up.
I understand that remakes in general are doomed to forever be between changing too much and not changing enough, but I actively disliked playing OR and was the first pokemon game where I didn't even bother to re-challenge the E4.
