Maybe, although there's a number of story and map changes I'd make to be more in line with Emerald or improve on it. The unfortunate problem is the map loading bullshit, that just automatically makes it feel worse. You could argue something similar about Gen 4 slowness with HGSS, but it's really only noticeable with the HP drain. Compare that to ORAS having to load a new map what feels like every route. I dunno if it would reach HGSS levels, but it would definitely be closer, and easily better than FRLG and the fucking weird decisions made there. As it stands I'm not sure how to feel about it, aside from saying it's the best Gen 6 game and maybe the second best 3DS era game, not like either is saying much.
