>>50010293>What exactly is the huge difference between "play" and "played" in this context?Play is present tense. Present tense means happening currently. Played is past tense. That means it happened in the past. You bringing up the past and nostalgia and childhood is therefore all irrelevant because I was talking about people who play them. As in play them nowadays.
>Someone who plays GSC as their first games as a kid is going to have a different experience than someone who plays other games firstYeah. That doesn't really mean anything though. Different does not mean bad.
>someone with more experience will naturally have a more defined opinion instead of a childish simplification like "They're fun".99/100 times on this board there is no point in explaining yourself.
>If you play them as a kid XY are "fun", DP are "fun", SwSh are "fun", but it's likely that you think at least 1 out of those 3 is badNever played SwSh on my own. I liked XY and DP when I played them. Played platinum recently and thought it was fun. I don't know what point this is supposed to make.
>so what makes your opinion matter more than a current child?In regards to pokemon? Nothing.
