>>32763821I thought the B/W "friends" were annoying and would never leave you fucking alone. But I liked them a whole lot more in B2/W2 also Team Plasma was impossible to take seriously in the first one.
>"We want to free Pokemon by using Pokemon. Getting the Legendary Pokemon will somehow accomplish this. Also we want to establish a monarchy."In B2/W2 Team Plasma was a little more straightforward with their goals and weren't ultra preachy about some inconsistent nonsense.
>"We want to take over the world and we're going to fuse 2 legendary Pokemon to do it." Bam! Short sweet and to the point.
>>32763920The game wasn't even FINISHED for crying out loud and the story was atrocious with Kukui/Guzma/Hau/Hala being the only characters that didn't piss me off for simply existing.
The game would shit itself when there were more than 2 Pokemon on the screen and the OST was good but more than half of the songs had a such a short fucking loop that they became painful to listen to.
>>32764099I think the shoehorning in elements from the anime dampened the experience, and to me the replay value of Pokemon is choosing a different starter and building a team around it each time you play. In Yellow your starter is predetermined and they give you all of the others which you will feel obligated to use giving you only 2 slots for team customization.
