Why do gen 3 babies hate these games so much they are literally perfect remakes excluding the battle frontier.
>>
>>724275241
And the worse gym teams, and the worse game balance and the ugly graphics and the forced megas and the free legendary and the longer cutscenes
>>
>>724275430
>forced megas
>free legendary
nobody forced you to use them tard
>worse game balance
nigga shut up.

>>724275241
i liked the dexnav and flying in real-time with latios/latias
i did not like that the game is generally much easier than previous pokemon games already were, the free latios/latias halfway through the game, leaders don't use megas, for some reason they didn't include a bunch of changes from emerald, and the missing battle frontier
overall had fun but idk if i'd replay them
>>
These games are as old as RS&E were when they got remade.
>>
>>724275241
>excluding the battle frontier
Even you admit they're flawed.
>>
>>724276228
damn, i still remember the hype around this game like it was yesterday
i remember staying up late watching werster play the games. back then i didn't have a 3DS so i could only vicariously enjoy them through watching streams
>>
>perfect remakes
>excluding THE ONE THING that people wanted that would've made these truly perfect

It's not everyday that you see a remake that goes out of its way to have EVEN LESS CONTENT than the original games.
No, floating portals in the sky leading to glorified hallways containing a legendary isn't "content".
>>
>>724276573
The campaign is better because it has far more Pokemon, the gen 3 dex sucked.
>>
>>724276396
I do too. I probably put 1000 hours into RSE when I was a kid, so I was obsessive about news for the remakes. I probably watched each trailer at least 10 times or more. I had the whole OST saved onto my ipad. I downloaded them one by one off of youtube

>>724275241
Reverting emerald changes is an odd decision
As is adding other gen 6-isms like free handouts constantly
>>
>>724275241
They have a lot of replayability with 721 Pokemon coded into the game to make lots of different teams (transfer in eggs/pokemon not usually available at the start)

gen 7 has all pokemon too but the story is harder to get through than oras

no thanks...
>>
>>724275241
why do people who played emerald and then got a taste of the new DS battle facilities hate a game that added only Megas to their game. Man I couldn't imagine. If we ignore the lack of battle frontier yeah you're right OP everyone who enjoyed gen 3 should be constantly sucking this game off 24/7

They’re worse games no reason to play either

Not just the Battle Frontier. ALL of Emerald and that's the problem.

what happened to this artist?

Gen 3 was already bad so it getting bad remakes just makes sense
>>
>>724275241
hideous graphics with horrible colors, art direction and chibi characters. insane handholding including free heals, teleporting to the next objective, free legends, etc. absolutely RETARDED post game with the most hated character in the series where even Japan agrees and had her stabbed on the manga. multiverse garbage, lame mega evos, a retarded UwU plotline with May, no Emerald content that natters, copy pasted maison from XY.

i like the part midway through the tutorial when you get a mega latias

They have fairies which makes them inferior to the originals by default.

We have two regions so we need to spread out the level curve a little bit. Never mind that everything in the second region is lower levelled than the elite four.

This is why. Some autistic spergs really really loved the idea of the frontier which they rarely ever played in.
OR/AS were remakes on par with or even better than HG/SS.
I have some gripes with it, like the new Brendan and May designs being inferior, and no gym leader rematches, but they're minor complaints.

That's.... a pretty good question. It originally used Flamethrower which was stronger and all Fire moves were special. Then it switched to Fire Fang which uses its weaker stat and has a lower base power? My first guess would be that it's to balance Meganium but it also uses Air Slash so it can't be that. I never noticed this difference before, huh.

Lance's team has more aura

>>724275241
Original game I had to track down Latios as it roamed across the map, and trap it in a battle to prevent it fleeing. This was a challenging and a memorable experience.

in the remake, Steven shows up half way through the game and literally hands you Latios for free along with a mega stone. Also this mon is completely overpowered and trivializes the game. Utter bullshit.

The online was a massive downgrade from XY.

It was retarded and a waste of time. You're not nostalgic, you're upset that newfags aren't getting "filtered" by a children's game. Shut the fuck up your incomprehensible retard.

Yeah because Pokemon is known for being difficult.
Do everyone a favor and re-read your posts before you send it.
>Argh! This children's game gave me something strong! I literally have no self-control, the ENTIRE GAME is fucking RUINED!
I know only the mentally handicapped still play these games so you'll continue to repeat this nonsense but I wish you'd shut up.

It had ONE good song. Say what you want about ORAS, but the flight to space was great.

The race-swapped Aqua redhead was a major L. All the other race-swaps, meh. Lesser characters.
