So I made a thread about a couple of weeks ago praising the story of Gates to Infinity and with it came a lot of suggestions for Sky which according to many people was superior to Gates in every way except graphics.

Man was I disappointed, the story being the most disappointing aspect. A boring as shit partner who gets way too much focus, a guild that causes the plot to go almost nowhere for an entire third of the game, Dusknoir being far too obvious and bland as a villain and Grovyle...well, he was no Hydreigon that's for sure - could he smile once in a while? Sure the last third was pretty damn good, but it was barely worth slogging through the rest of it, but the real kicker was as you could guess from what I've said from above, zero interesting characters. On the bright side, the special episodes were simply great, but I still can't help but feel that the story's reputation largely came about since there were no decent stories in the entire pokemon franchise up to this point.

Discuss, oh, and Mystery Dungeon general thread I guess
