>>50046368> They are good but not a complete "play this over the originals" like HGSS areHGSS are not definitive improvements, there are too many gameplay changes to call them faithful remakes, not only compared to Gold/Silver but obviously Crystal as well.
> Changes made to game corner> More significant overhaul to available TMs like the elemental punches in GodenRod> Lack of Crystal Day Care Egg> Stupid OC characters added like LyraGranted FRLG has sevii islands inclusion which is completely optional additional side content and the relocation of Moltres.
> I think the most offending part is the GBA sound chip butchered the soundtrack and they could have tried harder in the overworld graphics.In the soundtrack department HGSS definitely shits the bed on a few iconic tracks, over-remixing that's very hit or miss. Despite the GBA limitations FRLG had solid tracks.
> The postgame content is the best part, but the "___ mon can't evolve till post game due to it being from johto" is so retarded of a feature they never brought it back in later gamesI actually didn't realize this was a feature. But it's not the worst thing in the world. It just seems convoluted compared to just leaving sevii islands for post game exclusively. By the time you are able to get to them you're hours away from end game anyway, so.
