So why do you like/dislike LGPE /vp/? And no you can't just say 'it's fun/shit', I want you to actually explain what it is that you like/dislike about it.

I have no interest in playing the game when, my main reason for playing, the Pokemon their selves, have been limited to the original 151 which I already have experience with. If there were no new Pokemon, but nothing was excluded, I could probably have a shitmon from each gen I've not yet touched - whereas there's really nothing from Kanto left I'd both want to use and have not used. Even if there were some leftover Kantomons I want to try, I could simply pick up FRLG and get more or less the same experience as no new mechanic in LGPE is particularly expansive enough to change up my time with each Pokemon.

Makes wild battles interesting again at least for one game. If they make more games I’d hope they improve it or add stuff to it but for one game I don’t get they hate. The game isn’t really a slog to get through either. There hasn’t been a point that I hated what I was doing which I can’t say the same for game like Sun and Moon where I didn’t enjoy most of the side features. This is the first game to do riding Pokémon correctly too. Gen 6 wasn’t fully expanded yet and renting Pokémon was incredibly lame. It’s better to not tie them to the HM replacement imo, but still let you ride them while surfing and stuff. Really the only thing I super dislike about it is the lack of new music. People complain about what’s not there but most of what was removed from the other Gen 7 games wasn’t very good anyway. The game more excels with just being more enjoyable by having nothing bad in the game.

it looks like a cheap, half-assed production but is being charged at full price, plus DLC Mew

several key features (several moves, held items, abilities, wild battles) removed

"baddy bad"

Ahem, fuck casuals.
That is my reason for disliking LGPE, it can affect the future if it does well.

I actually like how easy it is. It means I can share it with my non pokemon-loving friends and they'll still enjoy it. I also like the idea of dressing up your ace Pokemon, and having any Pokemon outside of it's ball, not just the first one in your party.
I guess I just really like how casual it is. It's just pure fun, with no effort needed; a perfect break in between gens

Watered down mechanics and a gutted remake with a dated handheld engine that drops frames and has worse animations than an N64 game. Not to mention the broken candies, coop, price and 40 dollar mew.

I bought and am playing the game and really enjoying it, but why no abilities and no held items?

Have they actually given a reason why neither are in the game?

What happens to a LGP/LGE pokemon when traded to gen 8? Will it gain a random ability? Will it just continue to have no ability ever?

>muh realistic Kanto experience
What's that? Megas and Alolans, and a few other things weren't in the originals?
Didn't you hear me say KANTOOOOOO?!

Abilities and shit are actually there, just unused because they're fucking retarded.

I don't like the console you need to be able to play it, it's very bad and inferior to PS4 even though it was released much later. Not worth spending on a home console just to play Pokémon. I'm hoping after seeing the low sales of Let's Go they'll realize their mistakes and release a new proper and accesible handheld.

Also there aren't many good Pokégirls, big downgrade from SM/USUM

I'm just going to copy and paste my response to a friend the other day, sums how I feel up:

"The game is not for long time pokemon fans, it's targeted at the people who picked up GO specifically. Some of them ARE fans but for the most part it's a bare bones game stripped down to the most utterly basic of features and filled to the brim with fanservice stuff.
As someone who enjoys playing pokemon like an RPG...it's not for me, it's almost 100% an interactive experience where you just "play with" the world
And that's not BAD but I've been afraid of this sort of thing happening since GO came out...where the core mechanics of the series I've loved for over half my life get compromised in favor of accessibility for people who don't typically play video games
If going forward the new pokemon games lose any mechanics in favor of stuff GO does...well, I'll have lost the series I love
The success of this game scares me....not because I hate it
but because I want it to stay its' own thing and leave "my thing" alone
tldr; It's a game for people who can't understand traditional Pokemon games but still wanna feel like "Gamers" and I hope it stays away from said traditional games."

I like it because they actually tried experimenting with the gameplay for once. Overworld encounters are 100% an upgrade and having the game so focused on catching and collecting Pokemon is interesting.

It's easily better than ORAS at the very least.

Bad:
Catching pokemon has no feeling of accomplishment.
It's a 20$ game sold for 60.
It's a waste of potential by just remaking the world in a 1:1 format, and the scale of a setting made for a 30 year old machine really shows, and works at odds with the more real scale of the pokemon themselves appearing in it.
Mechanics I enjoyed like held items, abilities and breeding have been removed for the sake of simplicity.
Absolutely toothless rival...again.
You have to pay even more money to catch all pokemon.
Animations seem really cheap on a console like this. The abstraction was understandable for other systems, but in HD, it's seems really archaic.

Good:
Can access the box at any time.
Overworld pokemon encounters make caves much less of a pain, and I don't have to waste time with pokemon I don't want to..."fight".
Following/riding pokemon is nice.

Quoted By:

Catching mechanics are a shitshow
Even if you get an excellent throw and even using the co-op catching mechanic, it's pure RNG whether or not you catch shit on the first try
The game rewards you for catching on the first throw but fails more often than not even if you do everything perfectly

I know your pain. I have very low hopes for Gen 8, because I'm afraid of how disappointed I'll be anyway when it's even worse than USUM and is a flashy on-rails cinematic tour full of gimmicks.
