>>30925654Started losing it after I found out there was no DexNav. Once I started playing the game I noticed how linear it was. The catch rates of certain pokemon frustrated me and I had an aneurysm trying to fish for pokemon that weren't magikarp. Then I discovered you couldn't rematch trainers and the only way to grind was through the elite four or battling wild pokemon on Poni island because the battle buffet trainer levels are the same as the pokemon on Poni island. The Poke Pelago was a neat idea, I enjoyed the fact I could get a shitload of berries and rare items but raising pokemon and hatching eggs with it was tedious as hell and it's faster to just do it the old fashioned way. Also S.O.S. Battling is much more tedious than horde encounters.
It's presentation was great, I like the emphasis on storytelling and it looks much better than XY/ORAS but with all of those gameplay problems the hype died down pretty quick. They need a third game (or a sequel) to fix all of this. This is Diamond and Pearl all over again.
