Shitty textures, uninspired routes, post-game content. These things really matter and is why people make a contrast between things having SOUL and being soulless. Nuance is almost always indicative of effort, and with the lack of it in recent games, it's pretty obvious to see soulless and how complacent with the status quo GF has got. I'm not trying to shit on people who are legitimately having fun with the game, as if you have fun, that's subjective and I'm not going to tell you not to. I'm just disappointed that with the larger amount of potential, GF has seemingly regressed. They have made a few good changes, but almost twice as many bad ones.
I'm also butthurt because I still like almost all new pokemon designs that come out, even Eiscue but I just can't bring myself to play these games, and if I do I just can't find the drive to finish.
