>even 20 years ago video game devs were fucking up the background art in games
the out of bounds tiles in FRLG are always the same trees regardless of the town, whereas in RBY each town is different depending on what's outside it, like pewter city has mountains and shit
>>

I was shocked how hideous the Firered remakes were when they first came out.
>>
>>733621471
Remake devs couldn't tell that Pewter was supposed to have mountains out of its bounds because they can't engage with abstraction at all.

frlg are my least favorite pokemon games. people complain about modern games being for babies, but frlg is THE baby pokemon game. not only that but they have the worst sprites of the gba era, and every single remix of a rby track is noticeably worse.

rocket base rby - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kiKM2f2j_o
rocket base frlg - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edL6I9cKZkI

kanto in gen 1 is supposed to be a fucked up corrupted place filled with scumbags and threats everywhere, but frlg sanitized it so hard that the tone is unrecognizable

Why did they remove the 4 grass tiles?

>>733622125
kek they made the puzzle easier?
>>
>>733621471
FRLG was their chance to make Kanto more grand by giving you extra places to explore, actually having Cinnabar Island take place on a volcano, tying Mewtwo into the plot, but no. We need muh faithful adaptation.
>>
Can you post some image examples of this? If true, then that's yet another example of what I thought to be a perfect remake being ruined in some way. No matter how good or popular a remake of a game is, there are eventually things I learn where the new devs missed the point.

I guess the lesson is to always play the original, huh?

The problem for me is that the GBA games have clean sprites, while the DS games all have that ugly 2.5D aesthetic that aged worse than milk.

go watch the anime/japanese movies and shit that came out around that time. Japan was full of crime and protests and shit in the 60s and 70s and that's when Satoshi and Sugimori etc were growing up. RBG is based on Satoshi's childhood and the rapid post WWII urbanization and industrialization of japan in that time period. So crime, pollution and shit being sketchy as fuck were part of the Gen 1 and to a lesser extent Gen 2 experience before pokemon filed all the edges off and made it a baby franchise for babies
>>
>>733621804
Fire Red actually made me feel sick when I played through it as a kid. I loved Emerald but the art style for Fire Red is just gross.
>>
Honestly I don't think FRLG are bad remakes by any means. Some stuff that was posted here like trees instead of rocks is lame and I'm not a big fan of some of the lack of cross-gen evos, but overall I think it's a pretty big improvement. I would pick it over the originals any day.
Of course none of this justifies this awful price tag.
>>
We have lived long enough for pokefags to not only be allowed to post on /v/ but pretend their baby game is less of a baby game than the other entries in the franchise designed for little children. I don't think I've seen a gayer thread on this board in all two decades of posting.
>>
I don't understand the point of FRLG when it doesn't even have the Phys/Spec split to differentiate it from its original game like HGSS. Might as well have just added color to the OG and you'd have had the same effect.
>>
>>733621471
Pokemon Red/Blue is one of the ugliest games ever made, what the fuck are you talking about, retard?
>>
>>733626259
the DS games artstyle holds up just fine, what are you talking about?
>>
>>733626038
They do? Not just for this game but also for an unfortunate percentage of the industry in general. What a medium
>>
>>733627084
It's the complete opposite for me. I can't stand how anything looks in R/S/E. The sprites and tile set fucking suck compared to FR/LG.
>>
>>733626038
If you really think that. I only need to point to helldivers 2 to show you how wrong you truly are about this mindset anon.
>>
>>733622125
The new track sounds much better though. Also they literally redid the sprites because they rushed the original pre gen 3 pokemon sprites in Ruby and Sapphire, hence why most were updated and looked mediocre the few time you come across them in the other games.
>>
>>733627964
It's both for me, they both look like shit. Crystal was the peak for mainline games.

>kanto in gen 1 is supposed to be a fucked up corrupted place filled with scumbags and threats everywhere
Not really. It's just supposed to be urban 90's japan. I do agree the original music is far superior than most of the remade tracks in FR/LG
>>
>>733627821
I didn't say artstyle, the visuals are ass. Cheap looking 3D in a functionally 2D environment looks like shit in almost every instance.
>>
>>733628201
I agree, G/S/C was peak. Both the sprites, enhanced by the GBC's palette, as well as the soundtrack.

>>
>>733621471
Visually I don’t mind FRLG, but I do agree that the music is really bad, same with HGSS. I think a definitive version of these games would be just the vanilla versions with a fan remix of the soundtracks (FRLG and HGSS).
>>
>>733627641

idk when they changed the movesets but gen 1 level up movesets are famous for being bad

>>
>>733628014
agree to disagree on the track, i think the remixed version misses the point of the original hard. the remake is going for this more unsettling alien sci-fi vibe with the song which doesn't really work for me or match the setting in my opinion. the original has this really oppressive thumping sound that sounds very industrial like you're actually in a high tech criminal base
>>
>>733621471
how do you look at the left and not think it looks fucking gay? you're a fucking retard if you don't see how fucking gay it is.

It looks like HG/SS, but with Red's sprite instead of Gold's.
