>drop Pokemon for a bit; start playing other JRPGs
>finally get back into it with Pokemon Sun
>start to realize how shit the gameplay mechanics actually are, with most of the gameplay centered around type advantage and predicting switches (unless you're playing against AI, which never switches)
>start to realize how bloated the games are with pointless items and areas just so one or two Pokes can evolve
>even the original SNES Final Fantasy games, which were also for kids, had better combat and world design than modern Pokemon
For how popular the games are, they're actually shockingly bad. The only reason anyone likes this series is for the new Pokemon, and those are drying up more and more every gen. We can't really keep going like this, can we?
