>>37250503I agree but couldn’t a little more contrast in the model’s texture, like literally just the pallet, darker in some spots, lighter in others, could be altered to remedy your gripe. Why the fuck are those fucking lines there?? This is some batshit stuff like the Challenge/Easy Mode keys being locked behind beating the game. Just like weird ass fucking shit that should be simple but these dudes take one step sideways and two steps back. Like, their improvement literally ceased after they made PCs convenient in gen III (if you don’t count the phys/spec split). Everything just gets worse and worse.
Allow me to play devil’s advocate to myself. Gen V introduced infinite TMs, which some might argue interferes with the original format of play, limiting certain attacks so that all 6 of your guys couldn’t know EQ (unless they could learn it naturally), which is interesting strategically and adds a layer of difficulty and thought. However for post game when you’re breeding this is a nightmare and infinite TMs were a godsend so I think the end justifies the mean. So that’s something that you could say GF did right. And gen VI had the PSS. But literally every other aspect of the games decrease in quality over time. I HATED the drop from 60fps in gen III to 24 on DS. That sucked those games were so clunky compared to GBA. Gen V was a little faster luckily, but then we all know how fast and far downhill it went after gen V. THAT being said gen VI is a masterpiece compared to 7. At least that was still a Pokemon game and not some gay girly anime movie about some bitch with a carebear in her bag.
