>>48338184Yeah, I think the graphics are pretty nice, and it has some cool stuff to help settle the player into the atmosphere like the general "Kyoto" feel, following Pokemon and the Pokeathlon, but as a game it is insultingly shallow, sometimes more so than FRLG.
>>48338340 brings up XY, which people (correctly) shit on for the forgettable gym leaders and unremarkable villainous team, but somehow Johto is a masterpiece of "soul" when it's guilty of the same. My main issue is how obvious the main flaws of GSC were and how reluctant they were to address them meaningfully.
