the irony is I did play ruby when it came out and was furious at the complete lack of postgame after the elite 4 as my previous games were gold and crystal. I remember that moment of realization, anger, and disappointment to this very day. I remember wandering around aimlessly looking for the trigger to go back to johto or kanto or to the next plot point. nothing. and then I didn't touch another pokemon game until my mid 20s.

I had a gamecube and not a ps2 or xbox, loved it. your post is just abhorrent and I'm letting you know. but if you're going to bring up stats gamecube sold pretty poorly compared to competitors and other nintento consoles.

epically owned because not a single person back then paid attention to things like "frames per second". these are people that grew up playing 16 bit games and a fully 3D game at 15fps looked incredible to them. I remember the first time I saw a demo of wind waker at a store I thought the future was here. you're projecting anachronistic criticisms onto the past.

zoomers being obsessed with graphics and performance ruined video games. so much development resources are required to make games pretty and run well that the average game is a soulless husk with very little content meant to sell on looks alone. they bitch endlessly about games too even when they are pretty and run well due to the lack of content they demanded in redirecting development resources into performance and graphics. people that grew up playing fucking yellow version do not care at all that there are frame skips in SV, and were not discussing FPS when comparing PS2 and gamecube with their friends, and if they did they'd get blank stares.

Would you rather have Gold and Silver's battery problem where if it dies it just wipes out your entire save game? at least in gen 3 it just fucks you over slightly with clock based events not working and you can still replace the battery without losing your entire save game.

I remember being mad at how there was nothing but Battle Tower but didn't get too pissed because I didn't play Gen 2 and only played Gen 1. Kek I think I would have actually been mad if I'd played Gen 2 honestly, but never read this perspective before to realise it. I was pissed with Emerald though, since that shit didn't have anything to do for Post Game either. In the end I loved FRLG so much more in Gen 3 since the remakes were a brand new thing and seeing Bill after beating Blaine blew my mind kek. Being a dumb kid made it extremely annoying to figure out how to trade with RS though.

Same. I was absolutely convinced there was a way to get the SS Tidal to go back to Johto. Or if I only I could find the right room somewhere in Hoenn, I could unlock the time machine and trade up my bros.

Fans who weren't around in those days have no recollection that the Gen2-3 transition was every bit as hated and railed against as SwSh's dexit

I was never bothered by being cut off from Kanto or Johto to be honest. Hoenn had a crapton of optional and hidden areas to find and side content to keep me busy, it never felt like I needed to take a boat to go some place to fight another 8 gym leaders to have something to do.
