>>54272175>Couldn't understand any of the hate the game was gettingTo put it in perspective, this game was the first "third version" since BW2.
BW2 were the first enhanced versions to feature two titles instead of just one and, to warrant being two versions, they made them sequels.
At the time, there wasn't a single person who didn't think USUM were going to be sequels. That revelation started the hate. Then when (I think it was Masuda) stated that the game would have "ultra changes," revealed a new map with large sections covered by clouds, showed a brand new city in promotional art; all of those things being essentially bullshit made people despise the games. Felt like they got duped by playing SM.
