So, Alpha Sapphire and Omega Ruby may just be the last Pokemon games I ever buy. I both enjoy and hate generations 4 and 5 for opposite reasons, and while 6th gen was a technically impressive game, it was a completely forgettable experience and way too easy.

Is anyone else worried that it's going to feel too much like X and Y, and not enough like Ruby and Sapphire?

Just enjoy the games for what they are, y'know, Pokemon games. Or don't.

But anon all pokemon games have always been extremely easy.

Why are you searching for difficulty in a game targeted to under ages and casuals

It's always amazing how people seem to miss the point of pokemon. The point isn't to be the best player of POKEMON™, it's to be the best trainer. Train a monster and go on an adventure, not gen a monster and be an autist. Thats what made X&Y so weak, there wasn't enough true bonds made. You didn't have to save at the elite four and die twenty times you just did. No struggle no nuthin.

I think you're like me - you've grown up a little, outgrown gaming, and you yearn for the nostalgic fun, little screen experience of raising your mons and fighting the Champion.

And now, with the new generations and Mega Evolution and 3D changes, you've lost it. You've lost that spark of fun that you once enjoyed. The repetitiveness of each generation is making things boring and uninspiring. And it makes you sad. But you know, deep down, that this is the future of pokemon. And you sadly feel you have to let go of the franchise that you thought you'd enjoy forever.

Me too, OP, me too. :(

Sinnoh might come next gen, and I enjoyed Platinum too much to skip it.

XY were disappointing, but BW was fun despite how easy it was. Gen 7 might bring back difficulty or (most likely) just stick to easy mode with no alternatives other than hacks.

All we need is a Hard Mode with better AI and more pokemon on opponent teams.

I fell out after Platinum.
But it was X/Y that brought me back and I'm happy for it.
It finally feels like Pokemon is worth it again.

Every cluster of games is different. It's baffling that you expect Gen 7 to be like Gen 6. Or even expect ORAS to be the same as XY.

Did you not play HGSS? Did you think those were too similar to DPP? If so, what the fuck is wrong with you? Character style aside, it was nothing like them.

I remember Ruby and Sapphire. Hoenn was decent enough, besides all the surfing, but the games themselves were total shit. We had to wait until Emerald to fix some of the bullshit like fonts, lack of GSC's phone feature... day/night was still reduced to a pointless clock to measure berries and tides... but hey, at least Emerald fixed the clock battery problem.

Get over yourself. If they're anything closer to XY than Ruby and Sapphire, I'll be fucking happy. With exception to all the goddamn Megas.

I was going to mock you because for a moment I forgot Gen 5 existed, and thought you said you stopped with one game only to pick up with the very next one.

I played Gen 5, but holy shit I didn't even realize just how forgettable it was. In spite of me constantly bitching about every other flaw I see in them.

X/Y were the worst generation ever. At least Sinnoh made multiplayer a lot more interesting, but this gen did nothing but make battling a clusterfuck of legendary strength 'megas' and making 3v3 default for ranked online makes playing on cart fucking unbearable.

I was resolved to stop buying these games after it but I decided to give them a chance on this remake. I hated Hoenn when I first played it, but I've built up a tolerance for it when I compare it to Sinnoh and Kalos.

Oh god I forgot about that. It was annoying having Manetric on my team in Emerald, nonstop phone calls.

You mean the Berry bug? It's not completely immune to issues.

The core series is pretty much dead at this point. There hasn't been too many improvements nor original and good creative content since gens 2-3. If we add the usually bad ideas Game Freak has come up with we got a Gen 6 games that are named after gen 3 games for the sake of appealing to older players. And it's only natural since the creator doesn't seem to be interested in the games anymore (since gen 2), even the character designer stepped aside. Because of this Game Freak has been recycling stuff over and over again. So yes, you'll be playing X/Y but in Hoenn.
