>>27388783>gimmicks are inherently badEach facility had some unique aspects to make the battles feel different, some better than others, Factory being one of the better and Palace of the worse. Why is making them different a bad thing. I understand getting the Gold Symbols can be boring, but it's a post game quest, and actually getting just the Silver Symbols shouldn't be since there aren't that many battles needed in each facility.
The problem with the Delta Episode is that it was devoid of gameplay, it was just flying and talking to people. I would have been incredibly boring since the plot twist was spoiled, if not for it merely being an hour long. But then again it is useless to try to talk sense into someone who prefers the story to the gameplay in fucking pokémon.
