>>39604155You are really right, I must say that even though I still like the regions of today, its main problems arise from what you mention, its development was very rushed, more than anything talking about Alola, if we see The artworks, we will realize that many elements that would have enriched the region were removed, as far as the circle is concerned, I must say that that only applies to Unova, and this is not something I say because yes, look at Kalos for example , it map is the equal or even better than Johto's, however, the reason that it feels like a circle is not because it is, but because the game's plot forces you to opt for certain routes without giving way to exploration, remember that stupidity they did with the "blackout" of Lumiose city .
