Is there any reason to play Ruby/Sapphire now that ORAS exists?
I'm not talking about Emerald. That has its own reasons for being played over ORAS.

Nope.

Anons will tell you there's no reason to play either since Emerald exists

Yes, the original aesthetic and design of the games are fun and nostalgic and much nicer if you've recently plated FRLG or HGSS and don't want to jump into GF's lazy 3D visuals. Also Moemon exists

Only reasons to play is there's less Pokemon, making it easier to collect (if you're playing a Rom and can get the legendaries from events/mystery gift), it's not as fast as ORAS meaning you can take your time, not bad since the enemy team isn't 1 group/you help the opposite enemy team.

Can't think of much since it's been forever since I played original sapphire.

RS was harder and I don't want to say it but it has more soul than ORAS.
ORAS butchered Mauville, New Mauville, Granite Cave, Sky Pillar, the safari zone, Route 113, the victory road and the list goes on and on
ORAS EXP Share is also the same as the shitty one from XY that makes the game easier than it already is. You're also given shit like Lati@s with a mega stone which also makes the game even easier as early as right after the 5th gym.
Megas in general make the game way easier since Gamefreak didn't balance the game around them

The worst part is how ORAS was the remakes after the near perfect HGSS remakes so everyone expected something atleast on that level but instead got this abomination.

You never had to limit yourself in RS to make the game not piss easy.
It also worsens the feel of the game when you're just given extremely strong shit for free, it makes any struggle you face feel like less of an actual struggle since you could just grab your Mega Lati@s or use your starter's mega evolution at any time.

I prefer RS to ORAS only for the fact in RS the game feels a lot bigger due to the player sprite being tiny. imo it makes the world feel larger in a way the remakes don't

but in terms of gameplay its ORAS for phs/spec split wider Pokemon choice and its easier to get shit like event items in the game by injecting and doesn't require paying out the ass for an xploder off Ebay that probably fucking broken anyway.

ORAS looks like ass and while some of the tracks got great rearrangements (vs Magma/Aqua Leader, Slateport, Oceanic Museum, Sea Mauville) and there's new good tracks, most of it is underwhelming and ruined most battle tracks.
Reminder Wally's "reloaded" theme is a 30 second loop of an horrible guitar solo

This is like one of the 2 or 3 things ORAS did right, the expanded lore and the commentary both on the living conditions of Hashima and karoshi was good. The areas are also more interesting to look and explore even tho I hate Sea Mauville has less areas.

Nah I can't agree with that to be honest.
First off, making New Mauville only two rooms and without a puzzle made it so fucking boring, especially when you've played RS and know what the old New Mauville was like.
Second, making Mauville into what it was in ORAS made it more annoying to go around in and through. The removal of the game corner is just an extra slap in the face

Not the guy you were replying yo but youre an idiot if you think RSE Mauville is better than ORAS Mauville.
>Hurr durr its hard to get around
Not if you have at least two braincells. Mauvilles isnt even as big as lumiose or castelia. It has a middle section where the Pokemart and centre are and the rest is a massive mall that circles around the centre part. And even if Mauville was hell to go around in its better than a city made up of a Pokemart and centre and three other buildings trying to impose itself as a technological heaven.
>>37912069
And ORAS makes it even better by using real instruments. Hoenn bas the best music because its so expressive.

Reminder to everyone who sees shit arguments against ORAS that they are sinnohfetuses butthurt that they remade kantp twice before they made a DP remake

>The removal of the game corner is just an extra slap in the face
I understand why they removed it along with the Safari Zone and I'm not mad at them for removing it but rather mad at how it was handled. Let's Go! gave them the perfect opportunity to close the chapter by making both areas a Team Rocket subplot, entablish that gambling is wrong, canned hunting is wrong, and then the areas are dismantled and turned into the arcade and park.
But they just went for the laziest, "broom it under the rug and pretend they never happened" way.

And in RSE there was no useless mall blocking me from getting to the Pokécenter that I want to get to.

>And even if Mauville was hell to go around in its better than a city made up of a Pokemart and centre and three other buildings trying to impose itself as a technological heaven.
Who fucking cares. If they wanted to do some cool shit to make Mauville be a technological heaven they would just have "finished" New Mauville so you could have a whole underground city for post game shit or something while keeping the old RSE Mauville
