>>28683993gen 6 had a major problem with difficulty. far too easy
XY was dull. look at the kalos map, it's awful. instead of implementing a seasons system, they just made certain parts of the region different "seasons", which is awfully jarring. the only towns that i liked were snowbelle, anistar and lumiose, which isn't even a town. speaking of towns, there were too many that didn't do anything.
also, the friendship crew stopping you every 10 seconds was a bit annoying
ORAS fixed the dullness issues for the most part. visually, it looked better. i didn't dread going back to towns i'd already been in, because they all felt fairly distinct. i liked that the games differed outside of version exclusives, and story wise, i enjoyed it. music was pretty funky too
now, all those nice things i just said about ORAS is moot because it's a fucking remake. half the work was already done. i haven't played RSE, so i'm biased towards it. i can't tell if it's a butchered remake or not, all i can say is that it wasn't /that/ bad. i also can't really comment on no battle frontier due to that, but it's not game breaking
tl;dr
>gen 6 is too easy overall>XY is ugly and dull for a pokemon game>ORAS could have been better, but i'm biasedplease keep in mind these are just opinions and i'm not into competitive
