>>51441703Same with Gen 1 ironically enough, anyone who defends the travesty of bugs, bad design, unfinished garbage, and ugly spritework that was Gen 1 is either a boomer looking back with rose-tinted glasses who hasn't touched them since they were a child or a zoomer pretending to be the aforementioned boomer to fit in.
Gen 5, as it's a soft reboot of the franchise that's aping as much from Gen 1 as it possibly can to try and recapture the magic lightning in a bottle that was pokemania (and failing spectacularly), inherets a lot of the same issues bar the bugginess and unfinished code, replacing them with a shitty "plot" and forced unskippable cutscenes as well as garbage new mechanics like rotation and triple battles.
