>>26552855>Tower is a granted, sating they're the same in Emerald is fucking retarded.Aside from the fact that the Physical/Special split existed they were exactly the same anon. Right down to picking a partner for double battles as well as multi battles.
>The factory as well, it's a great addition to any game and complaining about it is fucking moronic.I'm not saying it was bad I'm saying that they shouldn't have put in less than quarter of the original content of the BF and say it was the same as the Emerald one. It doesn't excuse the fact that they advertised the frontier in Platinum and we didn't get it. Unlike ORAS where they didn't say a thing about it because it wasn't in the game.
It's basically saying
>hey here's that thing you like let me just snap off most of it and you can have the rest okay?>The battle hall with 1v1 where you chose typings were quite interesting as you could really choose to fuck yourself over early or late.The only way you could fuck yourself over is if you didn't have any coverage moves especially since, if I remember right, they were always a level lower than you were.
>The roulette could have been better, but it's not like it's worse than the pyramid or the pikeNot only were both essentially the roulette game but they both had different aspects outside of battling in the Pyramid it was easy to fuck yourself over if you didn't plan ahead or use the limited items wisely, in the Pike not listening to the maids could ruin your run early.
>but saying the castle is a useless gimmick certainly doesn't put a flattering light on gen III facilities. You just won battles until you had enough castle points to heal or buy items.
Meanwhile the Arena changed the way battling worked as a knockout wasn't the only way to win and it certainly wasn't the easiest.
The Palace could have been improved vastly in that gen too seeing as breeding mechanics regarding natures and IVs changed that gen.
