The Team Plasma plot in B2/W2 was disappointing, at least compared to B/W.

But what do you think, /vp/?

Well, its certainly better than what we were expecting back when B/W1 were current games and we could never have fucking guessed we'd get a direct sequel.

I am /vp/ and I agree.

Achroma had an interesting premise but they completely wasted all of it.
Still miles better than nearly every other evil team plot we had so far.

Of course Team Plasma got worse. Not only were BW2 not directed by Masuda, but them being sequels was never part of the original plan. The plot suffering was guaranteed.

Common misconception.

Liking Japanese things/games/websites does not make you a weeaboo.

Going out of your way to use the more obscure Japanese names of things despite the fact that you are talking to English speakers on an English language board = Weeaboo.

Because it took forever to get to that fucking point, like the 7th gym.

Then it gets completely ignored while you do the 8th gym.

The pace of B/W2 was fucking terrible and completely shat on the story of B/W. In all honesty, I wish that there hadn't been a sequel in the first place.

GF wants to have both the "evil team" plot and the "Wanna be the very best" plot, but have them separate. Which worked with Team Rocket since they were just a bunch of thugs.

The worst was D/P/Pt with the whole "You've defeated Team Galactic, and defeated a deity thing! Now....uhhh...go beat the last gym and the elite 4, we guess?"

Compared to BW, sure.

As a plot in general though- not really. Just standard bad guy wants world domination. At least Ghetsis was fun.

I really hated the story of BW2. I generally don't like the extra story elements of Pokemon games; just let me beat the gyms and train some mons! I'll take down the criminal organization if it's convenient or you get me invested, but I just didn't feel that way about BW2. BW story was bearable because at least it was new and original (for a pokemon game) and had some awesome moments to get me invested. That assault on the Pokemon League? On MY Pokemon League? It actually felt like Team Plasma was an obstacle in my path that only I could deal with.

BW2 story felt like a tedious retread that didn't need to happen. Oh no, they froze a town I don't care about! And now there's a slidy ice puzzle to get into that one department store! Such villainy! The freezy fortress was just a distraction while I was trying to get my last badge and it didn't feel like something I had to do. Ghetsis didn't freeze my house, he didn't free my Pokemon, so why should I care?

Holy shit, now I'm thinking how much more awesome the story would be if it just showed Plasma freezing Aspertia...

The pacing/urgency was kind of bad, although seeing Team Plasma shattered into different factions was nice and not really something I expected from a pokemon game.

Not saying it was 3deep5u or anything, but I did like it. It almost made me wish for a BW3, but that's what fanfiction is for I guess. I just really like Unova and the characters/locales that go with it.

I thought they were going to be some badass crime syndicate like Teams Rocket, Magma, and Aqua but the flying man-o-war completely killed it for me.

I think like you. The whole Ghetsis gone crazy and froze unova is interesting, but compared to the N Plasma it lacks something.

I was hoping for a bit more freezing over especially with all the hype the game got for half the region being frozen but what we got wasn't terrible, and the shadow trio were really cool considering that Team Plasma is a bunch of gingers.

Of course, all "evil teams" will be garbage until they learn how to use more than a few pokemon

The main plot in general was pretty bad. Colress (should have been fucking Corless) would be more intresting as a region professor. It was upsetting that Ghetsis didn't show up until the end. It sucked that the champion hardly did shit (and it had to be another Dragon master) and the themes that were elaborated on in B/W weren't developed as well as before. But I digress, I should have known the plot would be underwhelming from the start since the same guy that wrote it also designed Lyra. At least we can all hope that Masuda will direct X/Y......right?
