I deleted my post because it had a typo. I didn't think anyone replied.
>>44116275>god-tier dex with many of my favourite Pokemon inA lot of amazing pokemon but also huge duds. Compared to other pokedexes I don't find anything special, unique or stellar about the BW dex.
>difficult battlesMy experience was very different. I play games with random pokemon and no items or TMs. I steamrolled both BW and BW2. I remember Darmanitan would one shot almost anything.
>hard mode>if you can enable itThis is the biggest bullshit "feature". It should be considered a secret at best and a waste of space at worst.
>huge Pokemon variety in BW2For the main game I never have problems with the pokedex on any version.
>the story (in BW1)I thought it was pretty standard.
>retarded villain team plotlinesI feel the same way about Ghetsis.
>the routes are huge and have a ton to exploreIt has more to explore than the games after it but way less than the games before it.
>the soundtrack is excellentNothing about the soundtrack stood out.
>a lot of the character/gym designs are fun (Roxie, Lenora and Elesa (the runway moreso than the rollercoaster) spring to mind)It did have some nice gym puzzles but I find they just looked like a mess.
>GhetsisI don't understand the obsession with Ghetsis. He seems the most cartoon villain in the series.
>the PWT was a great idea and fun as fuckIt's so linear and boring. Like stripping legendary pokemon out of their story and just making them event but with characters instead.
>tons of quality of life changes (auto-sort bag, multiple registered items, ability indicators, Audino grinding, etc)Auto-sort bag is great but the bad in BW is such a mess with all the items. Removing the pokeball pocket was retarded.
>>44116277I found the story unremarkable and BW2 felt like a fan sequel more than something different and significant to the original.
My conclusion is that there is no objectivity in what pokemon game people like. All is subjective.
