>>39262217>There's no such thing as an objective good gameWrong. You would be right if the sentence was "objectively enjoyable game". But it was "objectively good".
Although I'm still not that anon and I do think that simple can be good too. Although I don't think Mother 1 and 2 are really that good, I think Mother 3 is a fantastic RPG. Another good simple RPG series is Paper Mario 1 and 2, and the Mario and Luigi series.
If you want RPGs with better stories, then by all means play any of Square's games during the golden days of gaming with the SNES and PS2. (I personally recommend Live-A-Live).
If you want better RPGs with a much better focus on gameplay, play
Action RPGs like
Dark Souls.
Pokemon honestly offers nothing new to RPGs minus two big things the series offers that no other RPG does: Team Customization and Competitive Battling. That's one of the reasons why the phrase "Gotta catch 'em all" was it's catchphrase during Pokemania.
