>>36614813the slowness is exaggerated imo. People complain about it like it's detrimentally slow when in reality it's just that certain things are slightly slower and it makes the game take a little longer. It's not really an issue if you're not in a rush to finish.
I never said HGSS had a good story, and quite frankly, pokemon game shouldn't need a good story. As long as the region, pokemon, and characters are visually interesting, the music is memorable, and the gameplay and pace are good, then you've got everything you need.
Desperate need for there to be a story to carry you to endgame is why we got gen 7 which is an atrocity of handholding, tons of texts from one dimensional characters, and unskippable cutscenes that pass for "story"
Also use your brain at least a little. Saying Platinum has the worst graphics in the series when gen 1 and 2 exist is begging to be called a moron. Say something more articulate like "I don't think the art style was interesting or original enough" or something that shows you're actually thinking about the topic and critiquing it seriously, rather than letting your biases take the wheel and make you vomit extreme opinions.
You don't even offer a counterpoint. Which games do you think are better, and why?
