>>35879637i'm gonna replay it again in a few weeks but yeah what
>>35879677 said are what stick out in my memory.
every dungeon in the game was an absolute fucking slog. hell, magikarp cave is uniquely BETTER than every other dungeon in the game because the shitty magikarp cave doesn't have encounters.
i remember the game also having a lot of nonsense that just doesn't go anywhere. the rival is basically pointless.
it feels like kbm was just obsessed with making an "escape rope in a building" joke and not much else the palette patrol doesn't actually accomplish anything. other than a dumb edgy "guardians" story that is clearly something he's had kicking around since he was in middle school and/or making Brown, and it shows.
it shows in pretty much every stupid gimmick in this game, actually, including pic related. maybe these things were supposed to amount to something in the nonexistent postgame, but none of them even came close to convincing me to care enough to actually WANT more of it.
