I can't even explain how low my expectations are for Gen 8 at this point.

Anyone who doesn't think all of this will be the culmination that is Gen 8 is either delusional, or a fucking retard (or both).

....But we'll all still buy it. Because, you know, Pokemon!

Just because /vp/ decided to shit on LGPE doesn't suddenly make them a bad dev.

Hyper Training. But yea, it'll probably be gone in Gen 8.
>Good
I liked the trials, a lot more interesting than 6 solid generations of the same ol' "Let's beat 8 gym leaders!" formula
>So like the past two gens.
Yes, exactly like that...only more
>So like Gen 7
Yes, but worse.... Though it's kind of hard to imagine it being worse, Gamefreak will find a way.

Honorable mentions imo:

>Final fight with Hau (and the theme)
>Ultra Necrozma fight + Theme
>G/C/S Style credits
>Mantine Surf
>Molayne being E4 member
>TRR (Decent but enjoyable)
>Ultra Beast worlds
>The new UBs
>Lillie as a Battle tree partner

and that's it

There wasn't much to Pikachu Valley and Ultra Megalopolis

I still say it should've went in the B2/W2 Direction instead of the C/E/PT one.

Faggots won't be fooling me anymore. If Gen 8 looks good, I'll buy it because of that. Not because it's Pokemon.

They're objectively terrible devs from every possible standpoint. If you play anything other than pokémon you'll see how far behind GF is on everything, from stories to graphics to map design, to content

They got lucky with RBY and have been riding the wave ever since

G/S/C and R/S/E were good too though. They started going downhill with the 4th gen. But Platinum made things better, and B/W/B2/W2 were all rays of hope for the future of the franchise.

Then X and Y came out...and well... Yea...

I haven't bought a Pokemon game since BW was released because B2W2 and the 3DS games looked so boring. And the 3DS games have been so bad that even fanboys are getting thinking twice for once.
But there are still people in this community with no standards that will buy anything GF puts out.

I genuinely can't think of a feature introduced in Gen 7 that made me thing "I hope this carries over into future games." Poke Pelago was kind of nice though.
>>36161035
Only two of those things are features, one being a shitty mini-game and the other being another minigame followed by a series of uninspired hallways.

Like another anon pointed out, I liked how Hypertraining with gold bottle caps made it so easy to make my legit legendary and mythical mons able to be used competitively. I won't be shocked if that shit is gone next gen.

Aside from that...yea, nothing I really liked. Trials were a nice break from the gym leader formula, but it's not something I'd like to be implemented again. I started missing the standard gym formula by the time US/UM rolled around.

I think the fact that the endgame ultimately led to another E4 weakened trials being different.

Honestly, Unova was my favorite region. Kanto was nice and all, but after being able to revisit it in G/S/C, it should have been forgotten.

Regular Sun and Moon at least provided a new set of Pokemon and appeared to set up a new structure for the adventure. Everything was lining up for it to be good. If the game is obviously a cash grab I'll skip out.

The correct answer is all of them. Wanting any to be removed is hypocritical. Why should any of your favorites or any of my favorites be there if someone else's aren't?

You know even something as shit as Musicals is liked by someone so they should all return unless you want there to be a legitimate excuse to remove more since the argument would always be, "Well, X was removed, so there's nothing wrong with Y being removed.".

And it's not even just the apologists anymore. Ishihara has made that argument for LGP/LGE for fuck sake.

Gamefreak's excuse for this is because they want every game to be unique. Yes, it's the most cop out answer you can think of, but at this point, do you expect anything OTHER than cop outs from Gamefreak?
