>>43330678Maybe it was a personal thing for me. I consider BW2 to be the last good entry, so it was the only game where I truly tried to 100% it. The fact that you can go back to old places in different seasons to get to new places gave the game a lot of extra play time just exploring the world, which feels much bigger than BW, even though its only a few cities.
Working on maxing out join avenue kept me coming back every day as well. That and my attempt at finally completing a national dex had me hundreds of hours into that title before I finally moved on to the lesser 3D games.
Not saying there is endless fun to be had. It's still Pokemon. But... it's fucking nostalgia! You got me! It's my comfy game!
