>>32575320I'm only going to be talking about BW. BW2 fixes most of these problems and I like them. I only dislike BW.
>stalenessMechanically, it brought nothing new to change the gameplay up a bit. You had a new region and new Pokemon. Otherwise, there were no features that made it stand out. There was literally nothing to play for, other than the new region.
>too much shit dialogueDialogue is fine, I like when games have a story, no matter how text heavy they get.
But when half of it is just either retarded bullshit that doesn't make any sense, or just repeating the same fucking thing over and over again, and the other half is uninteresting shit that I cannot care about because I already hate the characters, it gets just annoying.
>only Unova PokemonI get what they were going for. They wanted this region to be far away from others, and be different. But it's a shit idea to make it different. XY, for example, gives me all of Kalos Pokemon, and a lot of Pokemon from before. BW gives only Unova Pokemon. That's bad.
I know some will defend this, but they're retarded. You should never be forced to use certain Pokemon. If someone wants an Eevee, let them use an Eevee. If someone wants a Gyarados, let them use a Gyarados. Forcing someone to use Pokemon he doesn't want to isn't going to make him happy.
>mostly shit PokemonSelf explanatory. Too many fillermons, too many shit looking Pokemon. There are some God tier designs here, but the vast majority of them is shit. Going for quantity cost Unova quality.
>shit storyToo much can be said on this. It was the most dialogue heavy Pokemon game at the time and it had the worst story. It literally made no sense. As another anon described it, it wasn't just full of holes, it was fucking hole in the franchise.
The characters, except Alder and Bianca, were equally shit.
>shit postgameLiterally the worst tower clone yet. The Sage finding quest was also fucking boring.
There's more I dislike but hit the character limit.
