No visible manmade structure should be locked off from exploring. It ruins the sense of adventure. This is just egregious.

Hmmm that seems very different. I don't see a place that's locked.

You can see the power plant but can't explore it.

You can see the right part of the mansion but you can’t explore it.

>>56106157
Show me where, because I can't see it. I can clearly see the power plant, though, and it's completely inaccessible.

Why are you trying to prove XY is an incomplete game like we didn't know already? Why dig up a dead, rotten horse that was buried 20 feet underground so you can beat it more? Make an SV thread instead

False equivalency. The power plant is clearly visible, but the extra room is not.

No it's not. You can't show me an image of the room.
>but the power plant is not
Yes it is. It's right there in OP's image.

It's almost like parrotfags are retards that think all games MUST be created equal when they aren't.

Both of these are true. You shouldn't add a non-functional door to your game. Either make it lead somewhere, or remove it. No, having a locked door doesn't add world building, it just makes players think they're missing something. If you absolutely must add a non-functional door, like as a facade of house that's not part of the playable area (like if the player is in a neighborhood) then you should at least put some sort of message or something on the door like "We don't know who lives here, better not bother them." or something to that effect, so they know it's not part of the play area.

I think in the case of route 13 its overall constructive to the point of the route. You start off the route with a rollerskate rail in the corner of your view that naturally guides you down to one of the doors that you can't access.

Because the direction of what you're supposed to do after isn't exactly obvious, it makes it harder for the player to find the correct place to go which is threatened by aggressive wild encounters that can't be countered with repels. In the case of Pokemon, there's no real threat from the weaker enemies and even if you were to faint, you just arrive back at a Pokemon center and can easily restart, but I understand the idea they were trying to go for.

I agree with >>56106333 that the reality of adding non-functional doors is something unsatisfying. Adding opportunities to collect the other passes for the doors once you have completed the Power Plant quest would feel great after having being barred out earlier. It's just important to understand the design choices that were made in the first place to properly critique. Praise the developer for experimenting with non-traditional route structures and going out of their way to create detailed 3D models to enhance the route design and Kalo's worldbuilding. Criticize the lack of eventual payoff, but don't misconstrue it to claim things like it's "Volcanion's home" when the game explicitly states otherwise.

Mr. Backlot fucks his Pokemon then releases the offspring for trainers to catch so he doesn’t have to raise them.
Why do you think his yard is always rotating with cute Babymons?

Paldea chads won. You can explore anything you see. A true adventure.

>>56108114
Stop lying to yourself.

>>56108131
It's true though. Show me a part of Paldea you cannot explore.

>>56108140
Any house.

>>56108149
Going into stranger's houses is not exploring.

UHHHHH THIS DOESN'T COUNT BECAUSE OLD GOOD

When Kalos opens up the border.

No, you showed a part of the building that's already accessible.

It's not part of Paldea anymore. You can still explore all of Paldea.
>>
>>56108114
Unironically one of the few good things it does.
The biggest problem with the way gen 9 is set-up is that all the towns are closely packed together. You rarely feel like you're out in the wilderness. The next game should have structured missions in the overworld so there's some limitation/sense of danger.
>>
>>56108314
You think? If anything, I felt like the cities were useless cause you couldn't do much there and they were just awkwardly placed in the middle of nowhere. Just a block of buildings standing in the wilderness. The only exception was Levincia, that was the only place that actually felt like a city. The one on the mountain where the ghost gym was is ok too.
>>
>>56108258
It isn’t accessible though.

Better tell the Real Life dev team.

>>56107309
Not even like that you can make Z-Moves appealing over Megas, holy kek
>>
>>56108402
Yes it is. You can go to both sides of the building.

Good thing real life isn't a game and games aren't real life.
