>>22089888>Implying you didn't enjoy the challenging parts of the game as a kid>Implying the truly memorable parts weren't the climaxes of the story>Implying it wasn't pretty frustrating to go against Groudon or Kyogre and trying to catch that son of a bitch as a kid>Implying they didn't destroy your team because you were shit at managing correct move coverage and type coverage>Implying it wasn't immensely satisfying when you heard the successful capture music after the Pokeball had shaken 3 times, right when your team was pretty much dead and you were holding on from a rope on your last Pokemon>Implying it wasn't fun going through all that over again when you just coincidentially happened to come by the Regi puzzle and ended up facing legendaries you didn't even think existedThese things weren't actual difficult. People just want the memorable shit. The shit that takes them effort to get and rewards you at the end
"lol i throw a pokeball at Yveltal and i capture it immediately" isn't rewarding. Not as much as it used to be, and not even for a fucking kid of this era.
