I'm actually playing Brilliant Diamond right now. It's a weird experience, I wouldn't call it shit. It's the Sinnoh I love, the music is great, I had to stop and breathe in the Route 203 song for a minute. The graphics are even kind of cute even it they are disappointing. But it's all so streamlined. I've never had to grind, I'm always right at the level I need to be, I'm not even grossly overleveled. Switching out pokemon is so easy with the exp share and portable PC too. But, I can't help but wonder if something was lost? I'm going through the game pretty quickly. I've never had to remain in one area for too long. DPPT was very slow, but is this too fast? Is this satisfying? I haven't put any work into anything. I didn't even feel this way with SwSh or Legends. This weird mismatch of modern QoL with the older game design is strange.
