>>47158509>>47158510>Why not Platinum?because:
>worse mc designs>ugly grey-brown ui vs sleek black and white ui>edgy giratina story vs epic dialga and palkia story>looker is retarded>hurr durr just put snow in twinleaf town and verity lakefront for no reason lol>turned battle zone into a tropical resort even though it was never depicted as such in the official artwork and the fact that it is literally a part of russia>turned lost tower into a generic spooky tower even though it's supposed to be a peaceful resting place for pokemon>turned eterna forest into a generic spooky forest for no reason>made the gym leaders and e4 monotype>blocked off route 209 before fantina, consequently making the game more linear>made surfing faster for no reason, it feels stupid. surfing is supposed to be slow and calm and the music reflected this. they didn't even expand the surf routes to account for this>strength is now given to you instead of having to go out of your way to find it yourselfit's like they just took diamond and pearl and made a shitty rom hack without understanding the base game at all. they ruined masuda's magnum opus.
