>>49063491This. People talk about them like the second coming of christ, they're not, and they're not perfect, but they are legitimately great. And they did go a long way in improving the originals despite popular belief
>Completely restored kanto to it's original glory and then some>Made many overly rare pokemon reasonably obtainable through the new areas>While it didn't completely fix the level curve it did raise the levels by a bit in a lot of areas in a way that makes a decent difference. Should've gone farther with it imo tho.Granted it didn't
>Fix the fucking unfinished rocket plot outside of an event exclusive battle>Really do enough to fix the level curve completely>Make the johto wild pokemon not laughably leveledI know that last one is controversial and I get what they were going for but there's nothing added to the game by leaving the levels so low. You can argue it makes it feel authentic but it just makes it even weirder that there's bug catchers with level 50+ pokemon in a forest with level 10 or lower pokemon, so it doesn't even work in that regard
