>>54370226The early game was dreadful and overly scripted and sequence heavy. Hated being forved to ise the monkey to beat the meme type matchup gym.
Especially in the gave that gives you 2 rivals with both the starters you dont pick.
Speaking of, having 2 rivals because it slowed the early game to a crawl because the game makes you sit through talking to and battling both of em so fucking much early on
Before even playing it, a lot of the decisions and choices made for it i was against from the start. I didnt like how there would be no new evos of old Pokemon that could really use em
I didn't like how my collection of items and TMs wouldnt be able to be transferred.
It was kinda like how Gen 3 was for Pokemaniafags I guess.
I played on anyway tho and the game gets better but then all the railroading gets on your nerves a lot.
I still wanted to be charitable because i like Pokemon and wanna be hyped for it.
I was at first surprised at how well i was able to play through the game in Japanese, and it sink in that the reason was because the region was a straight line.
I also, of course, fidnt like many of the designs, though i did scrounge together a team. A good handful of Gen 5 mons are my fave Pokemon period but the ones I dont like are much more plentiful.
Whimsicott, Galvantula and Chandelure are bros though.
Didnt like the starters and the overabundance of things like the flashy bridges that have no substance. Gen 5 felt pretty empty.
Getting interrupted by C-Gear was also annoying.
Game was easy. Music on low HP was annoying as hell, especially as a Whimsicott player since it turns on and off repeatedly when you heal out of red HP with LeechSeed and junk.
A lot of Gen 5 pokemon I feel i liked em more in Gen 6 because i feel their designs look better in 3D. I think the overly pixilated sprites made them look worse than they were as well.
Didnt like needing a second DS to transfer from Gen 4. Gen 3 to 4 just required the GBA slot.
