it's like people who say a film being gritty makes it better.
I'm replaying yellow right now, there's no character. The game, while fundementally still a pokemon game, is still slow and lacks diversity or selection and because the region is so circular in the middle, the level grind hits hard mid way through. Its still fun, still pokemon, but it's aged like milk. It's okay to say the things you grew up with aren't as great as you remember and the series has improved 10 fold in almost every area.
Also, Blue is hardly like people remember, he's even kinda nice at times. He's a rival, not some savage asshole. Comes off like an ignored kid that is your friend but at times is jealous. People get way too nostalgic. It surprised me how similar he is to characters like hau, even though he's cheerful, he still has family issues and uses his friend to try to get stronger, ultimately failing.
