>>53798908Amateurishly developed in Unity.
Ported code and script from the DS games wholesale.
Doubled down on the chibi aesthetic by actively zooming in on models that should've been designed exclusively for a top-down fixed view.
Went out of its way to avoid improvements present in Platinum.
Went months without key online interactivity functionality like the Global Trade Station (or Global Wireless Station as I think it was renamed).
The game data is identical between both versions and controlled by modifying a single byte flag in the header.
Due to a big/little endian mistake with Spinda's pattern implementation, two Spinda with the same PID between BD/SP and previous games display different patterns, as a result they had to ban Spinda from Home and transporting between games, instead of performing some sort of hotfix to inverse the PID of the Spinda originating from BD/SP.
Removal of Super Contests with a braindead replacement that has less depth than the musicals from Black/White.
It's overall just a pretty poor repackaging of what could've been on or above the level of Platinum version before it.
The fact it was built using Unity makes it piss easy to mod, too.
