>>30091352I actually quite like Kanto itself, I just don't really care for Kanto-lite. Johto, Kalos and Alola all could've been greater regions in their own merit if they weren't constantly kneeling down to suck the mighty cock of Kanto.
Go all-in or not-at-all. Castrate me for using a dumb food metaphor if you like but putting, say, ice cream in a beefburger just worsens both of its parts. The same goes for the constant Kantoshit. It makes people hate Kanto more and it leaves the games in question (mostly X/Y) with less of a unique identity.
Nobody wins with constant Kanto pandering. Make another Kanto game and then sweep it under the rug for 4 or 5 years before bringing it back out to play again.
