Will GF stop pushing the big city bullshit this gen?

Lumiose was fucking boring and could be reduced to 1/4 of the size, easily. It was even worse than Castelia

No. They will do the same thing that they did with ORAS Mauville City: Create it and not pushing it.

The only problem with Lumiose was no map and no compass.

Castelia was only shit because for a big city it was fucking tiny, BW2 at least had the sewers to give it some real exploration.

It was great. Castelia was good. Goldenrod was good. Huge cities are always the best towns in their respective generation.

Fucking deal with it, boonie.

I don't care what they do with Hau'oli as long as they don't make screen transitions like ORAS. Just put a gate and be done with it.

Lumiose would've been fine if the camera wasn't such garbage there, or you could have a map of it open at all times on the bottom screen.

I want more big citites. Having just three houses, a gym and a Pokemon Center destroy the immersion, especially when they have the nerve to call it a city.

This. Shame Hau'oli looks so small compared to other big cities. Or maybe Hau'oli isn't the big city, but that walled off Attack on Titan city that Ya Boi took over...

The biggest city in Hawai'i is the real world equivalent of the town in the demo.

Is huge for a 8-bit game, but in HGSS even with its size it is the only city with 6 squares.

Hau'oli City is the smallest "biggest city" we've ever had in terms of size.

I think big cities are fine, they just dont have to overdo it. Like>>29591297 said, Goldenrod anc Castelia felt like huge cities and did so without being a clusterfuck.

Lumiose and Mallville arent great, but they have had good big cities

>>29591337
look at your sprite and then at the city. It's damn huge. Imagine what it would be like in full 3D man. It would be fucking incredible

>>29591353
They have screen transitions for gates alright....

We already know Alola has a big city. It seems more tolerable than Lumiose though. Castelia has been the only mega-city I've been okay with, hopefully the new one in Alola is like Castelia, where it looks huge but it's actually easy to navigate without getting lost.

Lumiose is the only really bad Mega City.

Though Jubilife and Saffron were cheating a bit by not by not actually being that big looking at them here >>29592005

I liked how copy-pasted and how hard to get to where you want to go without a guide Lumiose City was. It reminded me of an actual city.

I don't consider Saffron, Goldenrod, Slateport (the former giant city of Hoenn) or Jubilife as "mega cities" even if they're big cities. A "mega city" needs special camera angles and multiple loading points, and so far only Castelia, Lumiose, Mallville, and the new Alola city are like that.

I liked the size of it. There were two problems.

1. Every street looked the same, so navigation was awkward
2. Camera angles are atrocious and made traversing the town a head spinning nightmare

I really like the big cities, but they feel so empty most of the time. Most of the buildings don't even have fucking entrances most of the time and it feels so bland. Lumiose was pretty okay, it at least had a lot of shops and buildings you could go into, even if the navigation was horrible.

Lumiose had to be big enough to connect to every single point in the region. It was the hub area of Kalos.

I actually like the concept of cities actually being the size of cities. Almost every other "city" in Pokémon wasn't even the size of a town.
