Always nice knowing some people were more retarded than me, who got the Thunder Badge last in genwun because I couldn't figure out the gimmick on the first visit.
At least the region was non-linear enough that I could do all other gyms and come back later.

I believe anon is referencing the movie idiocracy there as it shows the decline of human intelligence

Because upgrading the pokegear so late in the game made no sense
This literally only happened because GF was too lazy to add the pokeflute. Gen 2 was a rushed mess

They adapted exactly for the reason like in the OP.
Puzzles and stuff like OP's post got too hard for children and they chose to make the simpler.
Wasn't a good decision but yeah, that's why.

Yup, this is it. If dumb kids get stuck, their core audience, won’t be buying more games. Business triumphs quality

I mean, it's not hard to figure out.
PokeFlute wakes Snorlax in first game.
PokeFlute on radio.
1 + 1 = 2

Pretty sure there's even an NPC that tells you to use the radio at some point.

The Wii and DS happened. Video games went from something people looked down on you for enjoying to being something enjoyed by the mainstream. Games had to become very simple to pander to the least common denominator.

This, but in FRLG. Why was it necessary to change what drink the guards drank? I didn't think it necessary to talk to a random NPC to progress.

Silver was my first game. And it wasn't as easy as RBY, you had to fiddle around with the PokeGear to get the flute to actually play once you actually get it.

Because held items is now a thing. They dont want people to trade a pokemon over holding the drink and access saffron right from the start.

This actually makes a lot of sense, but why not lock the guard accepting the drink behind a quest flag?

It took me at least a day to figure out how to leave New Bark. It took me a week to figure out how to enter and complete Morty's gym. I'm pretty sure it even took me at least an hour to figure out how to leave my house. Still, even I never got truly filtered.

You literally get the PokeFlute upgrade in Lavender Town, where it was in RBY.

>Because upgrading the pokegear so late in the game made no sense
People always complain that GSC Kanto has nothing to do, yet you're bitching about perhaps its only real storyline.
