>>48039761Firstly, I said it's what I think. I specifically mentioned you might value different elements.
>I can't customize my characterFirstly, you can. Secondly, that isn't what I play Pokemon for. In fact, that really only started in Gen 4 I believe? Maybe Gen 3, I didn't play with others much back then. Still, you're probably referring to XY and the games that came after.
>the game is railroaded as fuckThat's most Pokemon games, the exceptions tend to be slightly unbalanced (off the top of my head, midgame Kanto can be a slog if you do all the "optional" routes, and the GSCHGSS experience would be improved by somebody blocking you from visiting Mahogany).
>the story is boring and intrusiveUnderstandable, most Pokemon games are like that, but Gen 5 is kind of notorious for having a cutscene in practially every area. Even if BW uses some of them well, it can be a bit tiresome.
>the animations and graphics are badSuper subjective, but I do like the PS1/N64 graphics in general so maybe I'm just old. The DS just fits that a lot.
>the main game isn't challenging like usumI addressed this, it's not challenging, but it's not easy either, you get me? Pokemon is Kirby to me, you know?
>the post-game isn't challenging as emerald or platinum battle frontierYes, but does it have slightly worse Battle Sims? Again, it's more broad in what it does. If it had some more minigame stuff, like Pokathelon, yeah it woulds be better.
>and the breeding, EV training, and multiplayer features aren't as good as newer games.No, but most of it is better or on par with the previous games. But yeah, later games do get a little better with QoL.
>I'm honestly not sure what I'm supposed to like about it.Again I'll ask, what do you like about Pokemon, or video games in general? What do you want? Because it sounds like you want Skyrim, from what you've been posting about Todd.
