>story butting in every 10 minutes and forcing you into 15 minutes of cutsceneArguable, but it's telling one of the characters that talks the most has a faster text sped. I do want to time the cutscenes in BW compared to something like DP though. Maybe I should watch some Werser speedruns to get a real comparison. Maybe see how bad DP's other slowdowns are too.
>tons of cut features: vs seeker, contests, following pokemonIt focused more on the core gameplay, which is arguably a benefit, but they had the sprites lying around for Dream World stuff, so I dunno why they didn't make the 150-ish they needed to implement following Pokemon. Maybe it was an engine problem, who knows. VS seeker being missing is also baffling, and I agree it's a problem. I'd trade musicals (or even contests) for the VS seeker any day.
>made mythicals hand outs instead of letting you catch them aside from victiniBlame DP for being such a mess you could just clip out of bounds and catch them regardless. They at least included little events with some of them, which is nice to have at least.
>horrible mon designs with over half of them being pastiches of gen 1 monsThat's subjective, but it's not an uncommon opinion.
>limited the pokemon you could use in the main game to 150 which is something frlg rightfully gets raked over the coals for but when bw it was daring and braveOkay, you're retarded. Do you not understand why it's a problem when FRLG doesn't let you evolve a Pokemon that has no problem evolving under other circumstances, but is stopped for no reason? Is Gen 1 bad because it only has 151 Pokemon? Is DP bad because it only has 151 Pokemon? No, DP is bad for completely different reasons.
