>>28735018You just have to read my post without a nostalgia bias. They all have glaring flaws to them preventing them from being decent.
>>28735095And the Safari Zone customization going completely unexplained as to how it works and having a completely unnecessary time sink addition.
The aforementioned loss of environmental evolutions even though they had perfect places for them. Ice Path, Ilex and Viridian, the Power Plant you get the picture.
The Pokewalker being useless because you can obtain those pokemon sooner in game than you can with the Pokewalker. Basically all it did was jack up the price of the game because they stopped production of it early due to it.
The last trainer card upgrade being locked to the Shiny Leaf. Which is it's only purpose in the game.
Voltorb Flip being the only way of obtaining coins meaning you have to play it instead of just buying coins.
Not expanding areas like Mt.Moon back to its former glory
I could go on.
Also Pokesounds wasn't available until later in the game if I remember right so it wasn't immediate also it was only available on specific days meaning you would have to play on I think a Wednesday for Hoenn and Thursday for Sinnoh while when they unlocked in ORAS it was permanent and available at any time.
>>28735120That's basically what I'm trying to say. ORAS isn't particularly great but neither are the games they're being compared to.
