>White Knighting LGPE
There are so many Pokémon shills and LGPE white knights out there, what legitimate reasons do you have for not buying LGPE?

Almost all my favorite Pokemon are post Gen 1, the game that has emphasis on traveling and riding on your Pokemon cuts 650+ of them because Genwunners get scared at the sight of a fucking Wooper or some shit, that's more than enough reason to drop this trash game.

i just don't think i'd enjoy playing it due to the mechanics the are cutting. Do i need more of a reason than that to not buy a game?

I don’t want to support what GameFreak is doing with this game. May pick it up at some point second hand, but even then I’ve played Gen 1 so many times that that still seems like a waste of money with how unchanged the experience is.

Region is unchanged and not the variant taken from FrLg, over 650 Pokemon deleted because lol kanto, and I hate PoGo catching mechanics. A game released over 12 years ago has more to it than this and that's utterly embarrassing.

I play Pokemon for the titular monsters, if there are no new mons then there's no reason to get it. Spinoffs not withstanding.

What's worse is that the titular monsters in these games are fucking useless by having them evo-locked.

Something that I enjoy in this series is the continuous expansion of their world, discover new things, places, characters, and especially new pokemon.

The nostalgic orientation of this game is a nice touch, but I'm not interested in paying to hear the same story just with nice graphics.

I will not criticize those people who like this kind of games, but if it seems a very shameless way for a company to make big profits with little effort, I could compare it to a Disney movie sequel (And no, Pixar does not count)

What’s even worse is that they are the same ducking Pokémon we have been catching in games for 20 years now.

It's a worse version of FRLG. Why pay 60 dollars for an inferior version of something I've already played?

Two main reasons.

1: These are the first Pokemon games where I legitimately feel that I am outside of the target audience. Mostly because these games are blatant tutorials for GOfags that have never played the core games before.

2: I don't own a Switch.

i don't see the point in spending $75 on a game with graphics that don't even get close to hitting the bar set by its console that also has less content/gameplay/shit to do than the previous remake of a gen i game

Gofrogs who latched onto Pokémania as a fad and aren't even aware that Pokémon continued to exist for ~15 more years before Go came out are the real geewunners.

mostly that I've already played kanto like what 8 times at this point?

And I also did the VC releases for the HA mons.

TPCi sent them here because everyone involved with the franchise KNEW this was going to be hard to damage control among actual veterans of the franchise, but Masuda's thirsty for them normiebux after seeing how well GO did for awhile.

As for why I'm NOT buying the game, I've already played Kanto to death and have no interest in visiting an even worse version when the remake on GBA is better.

i am not buying lgpe because it just looks too casual to turn my brain off and enjoy, im not looking for anything substantially fitting for my age but this is too childish to justify getting.

>no 808 Pokémon all present

>no Kanto formes of other region species
>no wild battles
>none of all of the content they've removed returned
>no more open gameplay
>no properly sized world
>not a sequel to the originals set at least during S/M/US/UM's time frame 10 years later

Essentially it's not a Kanto that would have been great to return to, but one with 4 core features and 80% of the only characters that matter removed because of assbackwards pandering to brainlets who don't actually like the series that won't even play another game even if they like this one because the others aren't like this.

Meaning it's most likely it will lead to one of two things - ruining of all future remakes as a way to pander to them more OR the series as a whole with the latter being most likely due to Masuda being in control of it all and him being okay with quality loss for rushing out games yearly. Especially once the entire team realizes (I'm absolutely certain Masuda already realizes it at the very least) that they won't be able to rush them out yearly without doing so because even with an increased staff they're not capable of doing that on such a high res system.

If it does well - which I'm thinking and hoping it won't, but granting it did - this would almost certainly the end of the series for anyone who loves it as it's been. IF Gen 8 manages to not be fucked by it doing well Gen 9+ will be.

Those aren't actual reason though.

If you can ask why, you're not giving a reason and the question is why don't you want to? Why don't you feel like you have to?

It looks like a boring game and does really nothing to elevate/renew the Kanto experience from what we've seen so far
