>>57346940The abundance of cutscenes really annoyed me the first time and things like being unable to traverse between islands with Surf.
The story itself is my favorite among all the poke games though, it just should have been conveyed with fewer cutscenes (most of which were trivial and kind of unrelated to the main story)
The vibe/atmosphere of Alola is great though, particularly with the banger of a soundtrack. I also love the Battle Tree.
