After replaying it recently, I now have the opinion that Platinum kind of fucking blows. And this is coming from someone that is nostalgic for gen 4. The Pokemon variety is fucking awful and many of the routes are boring. What happened?

The power of actually replaying the older games instead of simply claiming they’re good based on nothing but childhood memories. Congrats.

I still greatly prefer the smaller regional dexes. I honestly think emerald abs platinum have the ideal dexes for regions their size. The ecology is well presented, the three pokemon available are fairly well placed with design considerations.
The engine does feel a little slow, but I am not personally bothered. Pretty much everything else is on you.

Emerald’s dex is fine until you get to the last 1/3 of the game. Platinum’s dex is complete horse shit almost all the way through and the encounters become overly repetitive after the 2nd gym.

>Pretty much everything else is on you.
The shit map design, difficulty, and story objectively exist in the game.

The platinum dex is fine. I think the map design and difficulty are pretty good, especially compared to earlier games. I still think that hoenn and sinnoh have the best regions. It isn't objective, in this case.
I'm not trying to change your mind, I'm just sharing my own opinion.

The game actually makes sense and doesn't disregard the concept and logic of the region for the sake of balancing the availability of types or whatever.

This is one of the many Pokemon games I regret buying. Nothing different in the story besides the stupid distortion hallway, a new form for a legendary that wasn't tournament legal, and um, a scarf around your characters neck. Just the same diamond and pearl with some different Pokemon sprinkled in.

There are no polar bears or England in Pokemon. You still haven’t defined what “makes sense” means.

>>51711052
Mt. Coronet has 7 floors. Of those 7 floors , why do they all have virtually the same encounters? Of those 7 floors, why are there literally zero puzzles?Of those 7 floors, why does it require 5 HMs to fully navigate yet ALSO has at least 3 separate NPC roadblocks?

How shallow and lazily designed does an area need to be before you consider it poorly designed?

Congratulations, you now know that whatever you played in the past isn't fun anymore. I love gen 5 because challenge mode exists and has a good post game. And it fucking sucks to unlock said challenge mode.

That's why I don't get how GF keeps dropping the ball with every new installment. No your gen 6 friendly rivals and red Hitler aren't fun. Your gen 7 fanfic about family issues isn't fun. And whatever they thought Hop was doing isn't fun. Reminder that people play Pokemon because they want Pokemon. And GF decided to cut pokemon from the games. This is easily the most asinine decision I've seen in a very long time and people still bought the games like they were hot cakes.

This is the reason you will not have another title to have fun in. Why improve if you can destroy the games and still profit? We can go from pedantic complaints like N64 trees to absurd levels of complacency like legendary dog turning on itself in a cutscenes. Know that Giratina cutscene in NDS is better than most, if not all, things from the current gen. And yet, it is bad by today's standards. Captcha TVVPTR

What the fuck are you talking about, there’s practically a new Pokémon on every route? You must be excluding a bunch of Pokémon simply because you don’t wanna use them, which is fair enough but not the games fault. What makes a route interesting is wholly subjective so I won’t say you’re wrong there, but I definitely disagree.
