All the hate comes from Emulatorfags doesn't it?

No, it's ugly and lazy and gets mogged by Gale Of Darkness, Stadium or even Let's Go!.

>>733656397
it looks great compared to the originals
>>
I played the real version. It's just really annoying in a lot of ways. I hate the chibi overworld sprites, I hate the shit where pokemon randomly survive hits and recover from statuses, I hate the way free movement works when the game is still tile based, the underground is stupid, I hate that they didn't add the cross gen evos to the standard sinnoh dex, and I hate the way they handled following pokemon. They scale them down. So even large pokemon like Dialga look stupid when they're the same size as your chibi character. Never did anything with contests and I'm not even sure if they were fully in this game.

The actual battles looked really nice though, and the E4 was actually hard as fuck. They all had fully competitive teams.

It looks worse than ORAS and those games looked like shit.

How do you manage to make the graphics worse than a GBA game?

because they tried to make it TOO similar. "faithful remake" as they claimed, but they didn't even bother basing them off platinum.

Nope
>development done by a third party indie company with no past experience, coupled pressure from the deadlines given by Gamefreak, resulting in an unfinished game that even had the music in midi at worst quality than even the originals weeks before release (datamined) aswell as having some facilities "under construction" even on release, such as the Wonder Trading Station. needs a Day 1 patch just to access the postgame and proper OST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-XL8rjobbM
>awful graphics inferior to a Wii game
>used the original game's source code, including the core overworld gameplay and its bugs/glitches
>new UI glitches led to cloning pokémon aswell as in some cases softlocking the game
>Affection mechanic (pic related), made the game easier than even Let's Go! versions by merging it with the happiness mechanic, even with the rematch levels up to lvl88 the Affection stomps the difficulty down to trivial
>despite the Affection being implemented in the remake, you can't get Sylveon with it as it isn't in the BDSP national dex (which was its original purpose when it got firstly implemented on XY)
>no Battle Frontier, plus the Battler Tower's Multi Battle option has been removed
>Stark Mountain doesn't have the lava aesthetic from Platinum
>Underground got expanded with Underground wild areas but secret bases got reduced into placing statues just to increase spawn rates of certain types
>the level scaling in the Underground wild areas is so atrocious that you could either powerlevel in the underground until your next gym leader aswell as catch fully evolved pokémon (i.e.: Gastrodon) before beating Gardenia
>Pokémon Contests got reduced to just doing the 2nd phase of the original (known as just the dancing contest from Gen5)
>GTS got replaced by a Wonder Trading Station (WTS), forcing you to use HOME instead
>full priced game with no "benefits" the previous remakes had (no new character designs, dex past gen4, no new story, no new map, etc)

Everyone who shits on these remakes just uses the art style as an argument, when underneath it is literally Gen 4 unchanged. So you fags just hate Gen 4.
>>
I own it and have played it through twice and done most content. I enjoy it, but everything I enjoy about it is purely because of the original games.

It's both disappointing compared to the previous remakes in the series, and bad in its own right. With FRLG, HGSS and ORAS, it really felt like they were attempting to make the ultimate versions of those games. With the exception of the Battle Frontier missing in ORAS, the prior remakes were full modernizations with most major content included + new story and features, using the modern mechanics.

BDSP conversely is an extremely faithful remake, and thus offers little of any value over the original game besides being available on newer platforms. The few things it does change actively work against it - modernizations like the Exp-share being forced on aren't considered for, making it literally impossible to avoid overleveling. Puzzles can be broken because you can move diagonally when you couldn't originally etc.

On top of all that, it is remaking specifically Diamond/Pearl and NOT Platinum, which might have actually been more compelling because Platinum has significant more content and a strong post-game with the Frontier. And then finally it just looks... cheap. ILCA doesn't have the artistic vision. It's not the chibiness that's the issue either, it's that everything looks... plastic. The visuals are just overly clean and flat and not in a way that does service to the original assets. "Sauceless" might be a good way to put it.

There's no reason to play this over the original unless you absolutely want a classic Pokemon gameplay experience on Switch (but FRLG will offer that after the end of this week).
>>
>>733656058
The hate comes from not being platinum unironically. It's fine.
>>
>>733656058
Looks like shit and remakes diamond/pearl instead of platinum so they can sell two versions of it
Doesn't even really improve on anything
What's the point

>>733657805
They look about the same as they have every game since 2013
The battles still look bad as well. I don't know why they still haven't made them less static. Even just moving the camera around would do a lot.

I'm just a salty Sinnoh fan. I wanted a remake of Sinnoh in the way they used to do them. I thought we would get them in gen 8 style... instead we get outsourced 1 to 1 remakes of the worst versions of Sinnoh. Its insulting.

Considering the fact that emulatorfags are the only ones that will be able to experience the only non shit version of that game, I'd say that you are really fucking wrong
Only mentally ill cultists defend BDSP, everyone else is shitting on it. Even poketubers have moved on from defending that game because there's new product shill

Anyway, national dex + battle frontier soon fellow piratefags

>when underneath it is literally Gen 4 unchanged.
This is a nonsense statement. You can't remake a game in an entirely different visual style and say "it's unchanged".

DP are mixed sprite based and 3D, and the 3D is minimal complexity to match the sprites. BDSP only half replicates this, replicating the low complexity parts where necessary (map layouts and geometry) to retain 1:1 gameplay and world design, but then makes the Pokemon, characters etc. higher complexity models while still retaining the chibi style of the humans but NOT the Pokemon. Even before you get into the specifics of colour use and lighting, it's clear there is no cohesive vision with BDSP. It's a visually cheap attempt to replicate what DP looked like but with no actual considerations for what doing that looks like in HD.

It's not Gen 4 "unchanged". It's Gen 4 remade in full 3D with assets that don't replicate the originals scaling or colour use consistently.

Gen 4 is literally the peak of the series. Platinum and HGSS are objectively the best pokemon games. It was all slowly downhill from there

They are never doing remakes ever again.

HGSS > BDSP > LGPE > ORAS > FRLG

it could have been much worse, look at DQ7... people are overeating. And hold Gen 4 in general to absurdly high standards when these games were mid at best and the remake showcases that.

>>733659876
As someone who has played it twice, that's absolute dogshit.

BDSP is actively easier than every other game in the franchise for 90% of its content because they took the original levels of the DP Pokemon but forced Exp-share on, meaning you factually are, at all times, over the games actual intended level curve.

The only battles they changed to accomodate this were the Elite Four, who are tuned to be semi-difficult at that point after the game had previously gotten easier and easier as it went on.

I remember these. Nintendo released it broken on cart with missing ending and music.
They later patched that in. So now its impossible for a person that buys it new to know if its a reprint full version or a broken version.
>>
>>733656058
I understand why people don't like it but it's definitely overhated when it's just a very by-the-numbers remake. It's strictly better than the original DP in a lot of ways, and being able to catch every single pre-Gen V Pokemon between the two games is a pretty strong selling point.

>all the remake content is just half assedly slapped on; grindy boring digging minigame to get past legendaries, Platinum and other region mons just slapped in big square rooms with a cookie cutter theme to it, make rematches radical red slop, and thats it.
I dont even know why they labelled these games as remakes with the adjective + games title. It shouldve just been Diamond and Pearl 'Switch Remaster'. Thankfully PLA came out pretty decent.
