I played the original GSC the year they were released. You emulated it a decade later and think Gen 4 is anything but the worse Gen.
>b-but I'm saying HGSS is good!they're weighed down by DPPt. Gen 5 stands tall, and it stands strong.
>>53976388I pick both. I'm not a sheep who fell for the 'Gen 5 is bad because, well, j-just because!' meme
>>53976393this was an issue in the originals. It was an attempt at a branching path, as opposed to railroading the player, using more strategic roadblocks and HMs to put the player on a specific path. I don't think it makes the games bad, but I acknowledge they make the later half of the game too easy.
I haven't played SwSh, or PLA, or SV. So I don't know if Game Freak managed to make 'open world' work. I don't know why faggots keep asking for it, like its a good idea.
