What is it about Diamond and Pearl that makes you autists seethe so hard? It's slower than the other games but it's not fucking unplayable, jesus christ. Sun and Moon's cutscenes are time-consuming enough to warrant calling them un-replayable, but DP are nowehere near that level of awful. And yeah I don't like the pre-National Dex Pokémon list either, but who fucking gives a shit when the game is otherwise filled to the brim with content? Super Contests, The Underground, Secret Bases, Berry Planting, Cooking, Safari Zone, tons of optional areas to explore everywhere, like did you all forget that we're talking about games from fucking 2006? This was pretty good for what we had back then, and a clear step up from RS in almost every way.
Fuck, I don't even care enough about DP to make a post this long, I'm just so genuinely confused about the level of butthurt mentioning these games causes. Like I can understand not liking them for the reasons people have mentioned here but it just doesn't make sense to get that angry over so little. It's nothing compared to the hells of XY, SM, LGPE, or SwSh.
