>>31582182Non linearity preferably one that doesn't completely fuck the level curve.
In gen 1 once you get badge two you can take on the next 5 in any order, but since the game is till designed around you going a specific sequence you're never 10 levels higher than anyone, you might even be 10 levels lower than eighth gym and e4.
gen 2 fucked it up with the fork in the road after badge 4, and instead of trying something different we got increasingly linear paths with insane road block that culminated with dancing npc and girls riding dogs to make she we keep our hands and feet in Gamefreaks ride at all times.
I want to completely skip Lt. Surges gym because my dumb ass kid mind only remembered the cutable tree after cerulean city when the captain gave me the HM. I want to get lost even though the routes are straight lines because i don't know were the fuck to go next and stumble upon a fucking Zapdos because I forgot there was a gym in viridian city after my 7th badge again.
