>>48474318>removed base customizationYeah, this was straight up lame. No reason for this, and it's not faithful.
>removed 3/4 of the contest minigamesI never cared about contests first of all. I think they did this partially because contests felt too long. There was dress up, dance, and the move portion, yeah? Dress up was cute. It could have been fun in 3D. The move portion was really strategic IIRC. They should have just made all three events quicker.
>forced exp shareAre they afraid little Jimmy is gonna accidentally turn it off and miss out on getting the same EXP little Johnny got? The games are clearly not dedicated to the hardcores anymore, but those that want a quick and easy experience. This is also a bad decision IMO.
>no post gameWe don't know what the post game will exactly be yet. Pal Park has some modification. During questions with playtesters who uploaded their footage to YouTube, the people orchestrating the event told one of the testers that while the games would be faithful to the original storylines, they would not answer if any additional elements would be added. Doesn't confirm anything, but it leaves open the possibility.
>no battle frontierYeah this is definitely gone. I know the excuse of "not a Platinum remake" is a meme, but there is some truth to it. Platinum wasn't directed by Masuda, and these games and the originals were. Should they have included Platinum elements? We actually know they did based on the layouts of some of the towns (Oreburgh, and I believe Jubilife IINM) and the presence of the Gracidea lady. To not include the content from Platinum that everyone cared about is also lame. If you want to give people a reason to still enjoy Platinum without making it obsolete in a way, then just include SOME of it.
>no distortion worldWe don't know this.
>no new formsProbably not, but PLA will. PLA is to me the real "remake" title, with a big twist, anyway. I think BDSP are just meant to give players a refresher.
