>>47389853I can barely remember anything about Kalos, it's a very poorly paced game and when I was done there was basically nothing to do, like it was RS levels of barely anything. I'd rather play Chrono Trigger or Kirby, those are games that are breezy to replay and also have a lot of things to do after you beat the game.
>>47390283>DP's online was dead for years before DNS servers>DP is miserable to replay because it's busted on an engine level, ignoring map or encounter design>USUM has the worst of both worlds, the Battle Agency is fun but hampered by the online requirementsGranted, on the latter I'm not sure how local factors into it. As another example, the only thing XY has going for it is PSS, at least ORAS's most key features work with StreetPass as well. Similarly, both basegame SS and the DLC really only have variants of Raids as the enjoyable content, and LAN mode will allow you to play with other people over the internet long after the servers shut down. Online isn't a permanent solution yet, so focus should be put on making everything that is permanent as good as possible. Another question to bother asking is, why replay a game if there's other games that are better to replay, or you could play a game you haven't played before? You could say they're intentionally hampering replayability to sell the next new game, but I wouldn't.
