>>43129988My expectations were set high within the first 3 badges of the game. It really did feel lengthy. How you were sent full circle and come back to Motostoke to fight Kabu. But after that the game suddenly went on turbo and sped up. Many of the towns didn't get any facilities, not even a clothing shop until Hammerlocke and Circhester. Even the one in Wyndon was a little barren with it only having a tower and gym in addition.
XY if I remember had a lot of facilities especially Lumiose despite that game having flaws. Iirc there were more clothing shops too.
But it feels like because they went full 3D they neglected the routes because they made the wild area compensate all that.
We'll have to see how it they'll manage the DLC I suppose.
