What do you think about ORAS? Is it good?

They're my least favorite mainline games in the series. Literally no reason to play them over Emerald.

Easily the best games since BW2, although that's not saying much. They could have been a lot better with relatively simple additions but the games were clearly rushed.

There was a lot of potential thrown away for no reason. I don't like that they just hand you a Lati@s. The game did a lot of cool things like Flying on Lati@s, but did dumb things like no Battle Frontier. It also failed to do events that were e-reader exclusive in the past. It's sad that we didn't get a Jirachi event or more Regi lore

I don't like them, and the laziness was unforgivable. Even if they didn't bother battle frontier, they should have added more shit, and all the other cut corners they did

That said, I always hated Hoenn, and I actually did end up liking these better than OG gen 3. Maybe because my bugbros were more viable

This isn't a good thing. Stop using this as defense, because they didn't charge half the price for a game made with half the team size.

I can post literally any screenshot of both games and say it with a straight face. The original games don't have a shitty out of place minecraft aesthetic with washed out models. On top of that they run at 60 FPS as opposed to the 30 AT MOST of ORAS.

>Early routes
Both look good. Don't see a problem
>Let me compare route 4 of ORAS which is just a regular route to route 10 in XY where the camera pans to give a more cinematic view so that I can push my agenda even more
Anon you can't be retarded enough to do shit like this.
>Comparing the looks of two different caves toget her.
Yes it seems you can be retarded. The cave in XY is tight and the paths are long. That's why the camera is very close to the mc. In meteor falls the paths are wide and very short . The camera pans out to get more of the area. You can see this when you enter other parts of meteor falls, where like x and y the camera zooms in.
>Comparing the enterance to a snowy mountain on a straight path to the enterance of a meteor falls
Anon are you baiting. Because I'm really hoping someone cannot be this stupid. The camera cannot be shifted in ORAS in the same way it is in XY because not only is the path going straight to the enterance much shorter but ledges, signs and other things in the path would block the sight of the camera. The only reason they're able to do that in X and Y is because it's a straight path with nothing else there.
>Smaller team
>Looks like the GBA
Looks like the GAV? Reconsider your life. The smaller team makes the graphics even more impressive

I can agree with this. Even then in terms of rematches the game still sis more than XY because you could rematch regular trainers with stronger Pokemon and you could also rematch the e4. The game corner was obviously abandoned for legal reasons

No, ORAS is clearly a forced early release.

It uses the same engine as XY, removes features like avatar customization, and even flat out has a sign indicating that the battle resort wasn't finished in time for release day.

The overworld is literally the original RSE map imported into the XY 3rd world engine, then shipped without any modifications to the abortion inducing blocky and stamped jpg look it created.

it couldn't figure out how to offer legendaries so that you could get "legal approved" pokemon with a pentagon seal, so it just decided that you literally fly into them as waiting battles in the sky.

Also mega lati@s are the same fucking color. They didn't even color mega latias

There was a load of places they revamped. How tf is it a copy and paste. Even haters of ORAS say that a lot of places were changed. Though I argue it was for the better whilst they argue it was worse

I hope people aren't this stupid that they go looking for the most minute details to complain about. You get to catch all legendaries and you are complaining about how you have to just fly to them. Even then you there is a condition for the legendaries to appear.
>Also mega lati@s are the same fucking color. They didn't even color mega latias
Let's sing a nursery rhyme together anon. Latios is blue, latias is red when you add them together you get purple you dick head.

They are the worst remakes just like USUM are the worst third versions.
They're not bad tho, just extremly mediocre in comparison to gen 4 and gen 5 standards.

Ranking would be USUM > ORAS > SM >= XY.

So you don't care about the most prominent thing about Pokemon, the social aspect. Youre either stretching to make your point valid or you're baiting.
>sm postgame=oras post game
Are you stupid. The post game of sm is catching 5 ubs and 5 legendaries. In ORAS you have contests, super secret bases, a story which develops the lore and makes deoxys a normal legendary instead of a mythical. Youre also allowed to catch 95% of the legendaries in the series. I don't see how ORAS has a post game worse or equal to SM postgame

They're great if you buy used, not worth the money otherwise. Best lower-screen utility in the series, last game that remotely lets you do your thing, overall just great to play. Sadly, what little postgame is there kind of sucks, so don't spend full price for a ~20h game.

Not the other anon, but so far the "social aspect" of the 3DS games are just:
>Find friend codes online
>Enter them in the console
>Play with near no interraction with the other player what so ever.
Not really "social" if you want my opinion.
