>>37007153I like how you fail to explain why you have any hope in GameFreak at this point and instead go on a massive sperg spouting "underage". Blind diehard fan indeed.
And no, got into the series with Gold during the release year, fell out of it after Sapphire, and marathoned all the gens after the XY trailer dropped. I pretty much played them back to back and don't feel this intense nostalgia you diehard fans do.
The 3DS games only got worse with each game. XY was a rushed mess with its only redeeming feature being PSS and character customization. ORAS being a mediocre remake with a 1:1 grid paint job and cut content from Emerald (don't get me started on how shit Delta Episode was). SM being a guided school trip with no sense of exploration and tons of lost potential with UBs. USUM not fixing any of the problems SM had and instead had a worse story and some extra hallways with the same shallow padding legendary hunt padding ORAS had. And all of them being littered with the most shallow kanto pandering possible.
