>>48696269being a breath of fresh air makes it better than SwSh and BDSP. Even if it fails to live up to my hopes, my expectations are rock bottom. I want mainline titles to shift in this direction, best parts of gen5 were seasons and hidden grottos and the utilization of 3d assets and camera angles, best part of gen3 was diving and secret bases, best part of gen2 was day/night and revisiting Kanto, best part of gen4 was adding 3d elements to the overworld the mud and fog and the location based evolutions, best part of gen6 was megas and soaring in ORAS and the pokenav and the rework of mirage islands, best part of gen7 was regional variants and moving away from grid/tile based overworlds, best part of gen 8 was raids and the wild area and ditching third versions for dlc and camping. I am speaking strictly about aspects that add to the feeling of exploring and adventuring through a world with your bros and discovering cool shit in it. Sadly the feeling of the adventure in these games becoming more grand has been waning in exchange for rail roading players. I want to explore the world of Pokemon and see cool stuff, I don't want it to feel like a fucking amusement park with a set course.
