>>58303386Honestly it's biggest issue if any is the fact that it doesn't really do as much to expand on base Hoenn (not counting the postgame stuff like the Soaring areas), and it missed out on a lot of miscellaneous features that HGSS and XY had, plus the lack of certain Emerald features
Like really if they just had added like
>GBA Sounds>Battle Frontier (or at least had the Battle Tower and not a "haha its not in the game teehee" sign)>Following Pokemon>Trainer Customization>Game CornerA lot of people probably would have come off of it a lot happier. It's not even really that it NEEDED those fearures persay, but the loss of them coming from the previous game and previous remake definitely left a sour taste for a lot of people. A couple additional routes for the postgame content (Delta Episode and the returning Legendaries) would've definitely helped as well
>>58303576This is the real answer though, remakes kinda just fucking suck conceptually. The Legends games at the very least are completely different games so they at least warrant a return to the region, but realistically there's not really a good reason for Remakes at this point. At least with FRLG and HGSS it kinda made sense since there was no transfers from Gen 2 to 3 despite there being 1 to 2
