>>19565374If you speak in terms of storyline and, to some extent, Pokémon, I do agree. But as a region, cities, routes, caves and all, I'm sorry but no.
Especially in Black and White: they somehow managed to make it more linear than gen I itself. It somehow got better in B2/W2, but still not the best for me.
Icirrus City was freaking awesome, however...
