There were two anons I think rummaging through the leaked builds of XY and they found out the map was originally far bigger and incorporated south Kalos as we all know, one of them even got it on video to prove it.
Also regarding the alien shit, I don't think it was proven or disproven really, but some of the unused XY songs like the Flare encounter theme have a very alien sounding tone to them, so it's possible at least the idea of XY being alien based had some merit, at least early in production.

If you count Kalos route 1, you must also count Unova’s bridges. That’s +5 for BW and +6 for BW2. Also, Unova has routes not named Route, like Undella Bay and ROUTE to Reversal mountain, so Unova has way more routes no matter which game. Also, more total locations no matter which games

So every game ever is unfinished because they initially planned something and then later decided not to do it. Good to know, sagefag.

It actually is, sagefag.

>>56635486
Most games have a point where they decide what is and isn't going to be in the game and then refine it, that's why they make design documents . We see this clearly with basically every prototype Pokemon game, the map and a lot of the Pokemon and other character designs are more or less finished, with tweaks afterwards to actually finish it. Yeah, you get things like Gen 1 cutting 90 Pokemon, but that's a bit rare and we know they were cut and the games are super scuffed in general. The only Pokemon game that doesn't fit this mold is Gen 2, which more or less completely restarted development with Masuda as a more major part of the leadership. To put it into perspective, every single other Pokemon game we know of was an alternative version of what we got in the final. Kalos is the only region that is significantly lesser because of a removal. Granted, it's mostly post-game, but still.

>RS: Nothing too significant

I think they made the correct choice if they had to cut something, but the point still stands.

>Most games have a point where they decide what is and isn't going to be in the game and then refine it,
Yes, which is what happened with XY. They decided to refine the game to fewer towns and routes instead of padding it with post-credits shit. What about this is difficult for you to understand?

Here's your "GS beta Sinnoh" bro.
That is a hugely misleading statement since the Japan map was nothing but token locations represented and all of Kanto WAS ONLY THE SIZE OF SAFFRON CITY. It barely had anything to do with the maps of the actual regions.
It really isn't comparable to how they made a draft of Kalos' map that's identical to the final game and then cut out all the planned southern towns and routes.

Trying to compare an unfinished map to a completely different concept that was scrapped entirely entirely is just stupid.
The topography and route layout is nearly identical to the parts featured in XY itself. Even the southern half is disconnected from the northern half.

Why? Because it makes the game you like look bad?

You know, looking at all maps together, it seems more like Southern Kalos was intended to be postgame content since it can only be accessed from the Pal Park town.
Had they put off SM for a couple of years, a third Kalos game would have likely added it.

You mean like how they replaced the non-existent maps in Kalos with actual maps? All you’re doing is making Johto look even worse than Kalos because at least Kalos didn’t cut literal near-complete routes.

No, they replaced them with NOTHING! All the existing cities were already panned AS IS with the exact same layout, but the cut ones were cut and your copium doesn't change that. Johto doesn't look worse because they REPLACED the extra locations with MORE than they removed, which is the entire Kanto region. Meanwhile, Kalos just couldn't do their region to its fullest as was planned and added nothing to compensate for scrapping a third of the region.
>>
>>56638147
>No, they replaced them with NOTHING
No, because nothing existed to begin with.

>>56638228

That region eventually got expanded into a full game. Southern Kalos will remain forever unfinished.

And they changed the plan to have less locations and shift the game’s content. Unlike Johto which cut literal finished maps. What are you having trouble understanding, sagefag?

>>56638538
It’s not “unfinished” if they were never going to put it into the game.
>>
>>56638570
>And they changed the plan to have less locations and shift the game’s content
meaning they offered less than what they planned to offer
>cut literal finished maps
and replaced them with MORE maps than what they cut, which ended up being an entire region's worth and more content in total anyway. So they offered even more than what they planned on offering. I think (You) need to start understand what actually happened, boogeymanfag.

Exactly. They planned to make them part of the game, but they didn't finish the game. They planned to make those locations, but they didn't.

No, they made less than they planned with XY. With the Johto games, they offered more than they had planned, unlike XY. Why is this such a mindfuck for you to even address directly? The maps being made or not doesn't change that XY offered less than it intended while Johto offered more than intended. This makes XY unfinished. Sorry your years of agenda-fagging on /vp/ didn't have ROI.
>>
>>56638675
>Until they planned on not putting it into the game
Right so it was planned, then scrapped because they chose not to finish what they wanted to finish at some point. Thanks for realizing XY is unfinished.

Except that was finished, and deemed to be replaced with EVEN MORE, so it isn't rushed nor unfinished. Please brush up on your definitions.

If Johto wasn't finished then it got finished by HGSS which did restore the cut Kanto locations like seafoam islands, viridian forest, and cerulean cave

So what retard? That's the criticism. They should have made more cities. They should have made the game not as fucking barren and empty as it is. Now that there is clear evidence they intended to do this but scrapped the idea, it should be clear to anyone that XY was shat out to fit a launch window and keep international customers happy with a timely release, like every subsequent gen with unparalleled levels of disappointment.

No, they made more than they planned with XY, since they went from not having maps to having maps. Unlike Johto which cut maps which were already finished.

they finished the game by actually making the maps. Then, they spent even more dev time making those locations into a whole new region instead. Total effort is huge, as well as total locations offered. Nothing like Shitlos.
>they made more than they planned with XY
Source? Because that screenshot of their plans with XY has more than the final product. This is unlike Johto, whose final product has more maps than the supposed plan. That's what "they made more than they planned" actually means, retard.

I'm crashing out on this leak bullshit. Original leaker (3rd world country retard) gave PLZA and Gaia to everyone in a private Discord. I just left it. Pic related. Here's all I got to see:

PLZA is only 20ish hours long. It's functionally the exact same game as PLA except in one location. It's roughly 2x the size of Obsidian Fieldlands. Pokemon are somehow still scarce. Music is good. It doesn't seem very fun. Starters are just the Kalos starters. Only new megas are Zygarde, Zeraora, the 3 Kalos starters, a third Charizard mega, Mew, Xerneas and Yveltal. It's set a year before X and Y. Most of the game aside from the PLA structure is collecting Zygarde cores. Zygarde has two new forms: 25% (ox) and 75% (bird).

Gaia is Switch 2. It's not on both Switches. Gamefreak were just testing if Switch 1 could run it in case Switch 2 got delayed to Christmas 2025. 112 new Pokemon according to the Pokedex slots. Not open world. Not sure what the region is based on, it's all very generic, a lot of placeholder shit. Two giant birds for legendaries. They look kind of Aztec-ish. The Pikaclone comes in multiple dual-types (Electric/any other type) seemingly at random. No names yet. All just shit like Mouse1, etc.

PLZA should be leaked by Thursday morning. AFAIK, someone else is uploading it right now. They were holding out for ransom but Nintendo basically told them to fuck off.

XY has essentially content than what it should have had, evident by the leaked image showing they planned to make more content but never made it.

They clearly had intentions on revisiting Kalos in some form and probably went overboard on cutting content to justify a Version Z
>>
>>56641815
No, the name Johto was made pretty late in the dev cycle. But this is a moot point that changes nothing honestly.

The actual difference between these cases is that the Johto games went from being planned as a large Japan region, got mapped out, then after having finished that, redone as actually being two regions. It was finished twice, with the original never being sold.
However, XY was initially planned to have a certain amount of locations, but they could never even finish all of those to begin with, so they sold the locations they were able to make as is and that's it.
>>
>>56641813
>Yes it was, the name was decided very early
No it wasn’t, the maps weren’t decided very early.
> XY has essentially content than what it should have had
Alright sagie, go on and compare the content in the maps in the beta with south kalos to the content in the maps in the final game and show us that the beta has more content. If you can’t do this then you’re full of shit.
>clearly not since no other pokemon game is as unfinished
GSC is even more unfinished, according to your logic.

The game not matching your fanfic of what you think the game should have done isn't the same thing as the game being unfinished.

Why do you completely miss the words of others? It's quite clear they would have given Kalos mons Megas if they had time and resources and finished the game. Just look at how Galar mons got Gmaxes.
>anime isn't relevant
Yes it is. In this case, it's proof they had Gen 6 forms planned for Kalos mons that never shipped in Kalos games That means that Kalos is unfinished compared to their intent to make them. Decalore has no proof that it was meant for the Unova games.

It's not evidence of anything. Otherwise any game that has a lot of detail is unfinished according to your dumbfuck logic.

Why do you keep resorting to this argument, sagefag? It has nothing to do with the amount of content in the postgame and it just makes you look desperate.

Yeah it's pretty damning. I get that the farther along Pokemon goes the more crushed it gets under its own weight. But X and Y might just be the first Pokemon games I regret paying full price for. They threw away too much.
>>
>>56642344
It typically is hard to admit things that are false, yes.

If the game had no trainer customization, no berry farming, no pokeradar, no new ribbons, no multiple fishing rods or fish chaining, didn’t drastically improve breeding, didn’t even use triple and rotation battles in the battle maison, gave all the pokemon only a single animation, had a useless bottom screen, and didn’t include super training and amie, -then- I would agree the game is half assed.

The simple argument is “here’s a literal blueprint of how many locations they wanted to include, but they didn’t get around to including all of them, therefore the game is not finished”. You have not actually disproved this because it’s impossible. It’s sound logic.
>show us the content
It wasn’t made but it was planned. These are two different words anon. The image is undeniable proof that they planned more locations but didn’t make them. Are you arguing they planned on making locations with nothing in them?
>mockup
Of a map of the region proving they planned on making more locations than they did, yes.
>since it’s not in the game
But they finished it since they made the map for the demo. They just did not sell it that way and demo’d it instead
>nope
Yep, maison’s easier
>amount of content
You said enjoyable and quality content though.
> they didn't finish their intended Johto region
They did though because they made it. They didn’t finish their intended Kalos region because they did not make it.
> compressing the content to just the northern part of Kalos instead
Except you have no proof for this. The south routes AREN’T in the game we got and there is no indication the South’s content got pushed to the North. We do know everything in final GSC and the demo though, and we know for sure exactly what they removed and exactly what it was replaced with, which is more.
No part was unfinished because everything was made and ready to go whether you’re looking at all the final content or all the content that’s in the demo.
>>
>>56644196
>It wasn’t made but it was planned. These are two different words anon. The image is undeniable proof that they planned more locations but didn’t make them. Are you arguing they planned on making locations with nothing in them?
NTA, but I think this is a pretty flawed perception of how game dev works in general.
Things get cut all the time. And yes, while this was the original plan, and there was going to be "something" there, it doesn't mean that something was yet decided on.
I'm not saying XY wasn't rushed out, because it absolutely was, but this is really making more out the map than it actually is.

And replaced it with a region. Kalos just never finished being made in the first place.

That they didn’t finish Kalos maps? Sure thing!
> you made the claim
Which is easily verified online with public data. You refusing to read makes you stupid. I provided proof by telling g you where to look.
>show something not in the game
Impossible. But what is possible is to deduce that something is missing. Reiterating that it’s missing doesn’t prove that wrong, retard.
>intentionally not making an argument
I made the argument already, supported by public data open to everyone on Bulbapedia. I’m not spoonfeeding you the specific lines within articles or specific files. If you want to stick your head in the sand, it isn’t my job to pull you out.

Just wait for the actual design docs that will be released soon.
>>
>>56644271
I absolutely agree things get cut all the time, but often they at least get reworked or something compensated for their removal. And it’s rarely something this huge relative to the region. It’s a pretty easy assumption to make that 3D was just too much for them to do on their first go, but there are many possible explanations.
As for if it was decided on at some stage, no one will probably ever know the exact timeline of events, but it seems pretty damn certain it was at some point, and pretty damn certain it wasn’t in particularly early stages either, given how the rest of the map has not been tweaked a pixel. This wasn’t just some concept art like the Unova one overlayed with IRL NYC. This was something much later on.
>>
>>56644450
So you don’t have one, got it.

>>56644490
I’m still waiting for you to show the content in the maps that were apparently removed, sagefag. You can’t say “TH-THEY DIDNT COMPENSATE FOR IT” when you don’t know what was in the maps. But you will deflect again because you are a disingenuous retard.

Holy shit no one said that they created the content and then removed it. All people are saying is that more was planned and they didn’t make it.

You’re such a fucking retard you can’t even grasp the concept of content being moved to different places in the game. Incredible. Aren’t you the one constantly bitching about pacing and poorly defending BW2’s lack of Battle Frontier because they split up the content? How do you lack this much self awareness, sagefag?
>>
>>56644668
True. Platinum is rushed and unfinished because Arceus is fully functional in the data.
>>
>>56644715
>You don’t have an argument.
I stated my argument quite clearly and you failed to adequately address it. Here, try again:
The simple argument is “here’s a literal blueprint of how many locations they wanted to include, but they didn’t get around to including all of them, therefore the game is not finished”. You have not actually disproved this because it’s impossible. It’s sound logic.
>content being moved
Again, you have no actual evidence of this. It’d be one thing if Kalos cities are more content dense than usual to explain this, but they aren’t. There’s no way several cities worth of things to do is spread among them. And then there’s the fact that the routes stay the same, perma cutting those.
>pacing
Good or bad pacing doesn’t change the map. Or just affects how far apart gyms are in time
>Battle Frontier
This literally only adds one location to the map, just like PWT did. Again, make me believe they moved nine fucking towns worth of content and then I will believe you. There is no evidence of this.
>>
>>56644740
Potentially, but it’s also possible higher ups deemed it unworthy to make it to be official, which we have interview proof of. Meanwhile, Latias got into ORAS anyway, meaning they rushed and couldn’t deliver it in XY.

>I stated my argument quite clearly

>THEY MADE BLUEPRINT OF THING BUT THEN DIDN'T DO IT
Congrats, you figured it out, sagefag. Every game in existence is unfinished.

>Again, you have no actual evidence of this
Just like you have no actual evidence of there being less content.

>Good or bad pacing doesn’t change the map
Ah, so you're just a complete retard who doesn't understand how pacing even works but screeches about pacing to sound smart. Good to know.

>This literally only adds one location to the map
And yet you screech about how BW2 has equivalent content because they split the content up over multiple maps. Therefore it stands to reason that the reverse can also be true. You're shooting yourself in the foot thanks to your own desperate arguments, sagie.

>>56644853

>every game inexistence
I ask again, show me another pokemon game that had a plan for this much yet never made it.
>no evidence for less content
locations, incluing routes, are content. They removed these, along with whatever was in them, which is content.
>you don't understand how pacing works.
How don't I? I provided the definition while asking you for yours since you're such an expert and you failed to produce one. Starting to think your whole slew of argument is "no lol" to everything.
>BW2 has equivalent content because they split the content up over multiple maps
In that case, it's a demonstrable fact that WE SEE the exact locations that were distributed because WE SEE just as many facilities in Unova as in the BF, with no change to the map like I said. When you say "the reverse can be true", half of the novelty of those cut locations are the locations themselves being cut and gone and unfinished. And we don't actually see content in the rest of the game that is from the South of the region. The cities aren't denser than they should be or anything like that. Again, it’d be one thing if Kalos cities are more content dense than usual to explain this, but they aren’t. There’s no way several cities worth of things to do is spread among them. And then there’s the fact that the routes stay the same, perma cutting those.

A mockup of a map isn't content.

Because you're so fucking retarded that you somehow think level design in games don't determine pacing.

>In that case, it's a demonstrable fact that WE SEE the exact locations that were distributed because WE SEE
Cool! Show the content you can SEE in the maps in the beta and compare it to the content you can SEE in XY to prove to us there really is less content, sagefag.

WHEN did I fucking say this?
>show the content you can see
ten cities/towns and nine routes worth of content were cut and not replaced in XY by anything. You defended this by saying whatever is in the cities was relocated to other cities, which has no evidence because the final cities don't exactly have more content than usual. Therefore, whatever would have been in those cities is almost certainly NOT in the rest of the game and were never made, therefore unfinished.

Okay, let me ask. What is in these south cities?
Surely it's not all post-game, right? So there should be some amount of Gyms there, which would explain why after the second Gym, just about every town has a Gym, because they had to cram them into the remaining towns.

but this was actually made, unlike their plan to make Southern Kalos that they didn't finish the region of.
>it's way worse to cut some routes and cities and replace them with a second region....compared to cutting a chunk of a single region and not replacing it with shit
>Glad we agree
That XY specifically had massive plans but didn't finish them? Yeah, we agree. Still waiting on anything to this scale from other regions.
>Good or bad pacing doesn't change the map
Yes, I agree with myself. What does that have to do with you accusing me of saying "level design in games don't determine pacing" ?
>Show us the content in those maps
You're asking the wrong question, retardbro. The fact that there ISN'T any content in those maps shows that the game is unfinished. They didn't make the content they panned on making. It's a simple proposition, which is “here’s a literal blueprint of how many locations they wanted to include, but they didn’t get around to including all of them, therefore the game is not finished”. You have not actually disproved this because it’s impossible. It’s sound logic.
The locations themselves count as content, but the content that would have been in them, whatever they were to turn out to be, clearly aren't in the rest of the region since we don't see anything packed into existing cities from them. So the content was unfinished then.

>Map description for Kiloude City, the only post-game exclusive area and only area in Southern Kalos in the game, says "This city, popular with Pokémon Trainers, is a typical example of southern Kalosian life."
I think it's safe to assume it was probably the post-game that Kalos is notably lacking. Just based on my observations of GF's overall game design philosophies.
>>56645863
It's weird that XY lists every sub-area of Lumiose City, but BW doesn't have the also named maps of Castelia. It's also odd that XY has Baa de Mer Ranch despite it not having a name-plate but alright whatever it showed up in the Anime. This isn't even getting into the padding on every single area list like the region itself, "Hometown", "Player's House", and of course who can forget the place that isn't even in the fucking region "Faraway place". But just adding the 6 separate areas of Castelia makes it 83, or removing every sub area of Lumiose makes it 76, which is incredibly funny to me that in both cases XY has one less area.
>>
>>56636915
Ever wondered why Kiloude City (the southernmost city) felt out of place? Why the train you board to get there only exists to get you there?
It turns out that it used to be gateway to the rest of southern Kalos. This is what the postgame was originally going to be
>>
>>56645919
>What is in these south cities?
Anyone who claims to know for sure is lying. Sure, it might most likely be postgame given the layout and access through Kiloude, but that is not for sure. Your gym logic sounds decent, but it doesn't work imo because you'd have to trek ALL the way back to the League. Unless, of course, they move the league, which now that I think about it feels weird being right next to you house.

Just name a SINGLE location that isn't on the list and its INSTANTLy discredited as omitting them, making your image evidence. But no, you can't. You know you can't. There aren't locations off that list.

I think it's pretty neat that the League is accessible early on. Gen 1 did it that way too, more or less.
But I don't think it's an issue that you access them through Kiloude. You get the pass after Hall of Fame, sure, but you get it in Lumiose City, which you of course access again for the 5th Gym in the current iteration.
Could easily be that you get the pass earlier on and went on this separate path.

But they are finished in the demo. They just replaced it with a whole region instead.
>What does me saying level design in games doesn't determine pacing

>>56646684
>No I'm not.
Yes you are. You're asking for the content. My argument is that they didn't make the content but planned to. That's the whole criticism of it being unfinished. You seem to be unable to comprehend this.
>you don't even know what the content is
It wasn't made, which is the criticism. This makes the game unfinished since they planned on making content in these locations as well as making the locations themselves, but didn't.
>actually listing the locations is "disingenuous shzitposts"
How? Because I didn't count Kalos's E4 rooms separately but not for Unova like Bulbapedia chose to? I ask AGAIN: name a location not on the list. If you fail to do this in your next post, that "disingenuous shitpost" is officially the real list since you can't say how it's even wrong. You'd also be a bulbepedo bootlicker

Ah, as prophesied in >>56646604 I, Chrono Trigger fag, have returned to actually agree with Yawnfag on this point. Gen 2's second revision, after Masuda took over after the long break, is somewhat rushed. This is notably seen in a few unfinished Pokemon sprites and some weird balancing and Pokemon choices. However, Masuda's vision of the game after said reset (it's functionally a completely different game than Tajiri's Pokemon 2) is more or less properly represented in it. Notably, the only major map change I'm aware of in any other Pokemon prototype is Gen 1 losing a single unconnected town, even if it is structurally quite different the overall map shape is quite similar. XY's an interesting case of Pokemon's many rushed games as it's the only one that had a significant plan changed since they cut like 40 Pokemon from Gen 1, and that game's development was just complete fucking hell where they had no idea what they were doing. If we got any SM leaks I imagine similar problems to XY would show themselves given the development hell it seems to have went through (two Kalos reserve titles not releasing in a gap year, island trials being made during debugging phase, weird stuff like Ash-Greninja and Zygarde forms being in SM), but we don't so as it stands XY is the only Pokemon game to be rushed in this exact specific way. Notably, the leaks also show BW's development went shockingly smoothly, it's actually kind of impressive given how GF have been before and since.
>>
>>56647042
What part of GSC was unfinished? They actually fully made what they intended to make, then decided to REPLACE it with all of Kanto instead so it would fit because that'd be better than all of Jpana but condensed. They finished making it, and THEN did even more work. With kalos, they had a certain plan and didn't even finish that the first time. Every time you compare these you prove just how demented you are. Not all games are created equal.
>>
>>56647063

I'd apply it to anything. If a movie has a script but is randomly cuts 4/5 of the way, it's unfinished because the script was never acted out. If a burger has ingredients on the menu but I receive it missing some of them, it's unfinished. How is this case any different?

>>56647067
>Notably, the leaks also show BW's development went shockingly smoothly, it's actually kind of impressive given how GF have been before and since.
BW/2 was the last 2D game they made, on familiar hardware. It's clear that the transition to full 3D did not go very well.

No? XY removed an entire segment from their planned map. BW did not. This isn't like some dev only camera controls for debugging purposes, it's an intentional huge change in the scope of the game. You don't just change things like that on a whim, as I mentioned earlier that's why you have design documents usually.

>>56647213
>By having more content than RS/DPPt/BW's postgame.
More =/= quality. I'd call Gen 4's Battle Tower Multis with another player low quality because they're fucking miserable to actually play because of how slow it is. Similarly, Gen 6's Battle Maison is low quality because the AI in almost every format is so exploitable it becomes an actual problem. But if we're just talking quantity, all the games you listed have infinite content, as does XY, so that's not really true in a technical sense.
>>56647269
Can you list me a few JRPGs that have significantly less areas than planned? Off the top of my head it's usually only a few maps, Chrono Trigger had maybe one area cut and Xenoblade 1 had one large area cut as well. I'd also like to note that when it comes to early 3D games that shit happens way more often to large portions of the game like the XY example, Wind Waker was notoriously rushed and had tons of dungeons that they didn't even get to design leaving the game unfinished with a massive fetch quest, so if we expand to that category of games then XY matches that sort of mold. At least XY's removal was likely "only" the post-game which preserves the main game's momentum.
>>
>>56647241
>Where is it in the final game?
The question is wrong. it not being in the final game doesn't make it unfinished content. it makes it cut content.
>So you don't know if the content wasn't replaced
I know it was intended to be made and was never made, making the game unfinished. Why is this concept so hard for you to get?
>spam your list
How have I spammed it? I just posted it and you started coping by accusing it of being fake and leaving stuff out, while you can't name anything I left out. Funny how that works.

Thanks for not addressing the crux, which is that XY planned something but never made it, making it unfinished. I actually support my claims with reasons, unlike you.
>>56647250
>The other parts of the beta disproves this
That's not how it works. If it was planned at some point, it was planned at some point. They planned to make Kalos bigger but didn't do it. In other words, they didn't finish making Kalos.
>>56647266

Well yeah, Kalos's locations were never about quality to begin with, but they could have included more and didn't because the game is grossly unfinished. OP's image is proof of this.
>>
>>56647390
I'm not sagefag, what the fuck are you talking about? My argument has always been, as seen in my first notable post >>56635701 that specifically removing what is likely XY's post-game maps has removed variety from the game. Instead of DP's main campaign, infinite battle content, and extra post game maps, we go back to RS's main campaign and infinite battle content, which hasn't been the standard since FRLG released, and furthermore SM also features a similar format to games outside RS/XY. That really leaves the modern Pokemon games, which instead charge you 30 bucks for that sort of thing, which leaves XY in a very specifically odd place. I will say XY includes a little post-game story which is fairly common in Pokemon games after Platinum, but that's way less development intensive and unfortunately less enjoyable than visiting a new map. After all, if visiting a new map wasn't an enjoyable thing every single map in the game would be a featureless rectangle, which is unfortunately basically what Battle Tower clones are at the end of the day.

Cut content and unfinished content are very different anon. Cut content was made and then removed for some reason. Unfinished content was planned content that was never actually made.

>he’s just repeating himself now

>>
>>56647565
Exactly, despite XY having more locations than BW as seen in >>56645863 BW has way more quality locations. The worst numbered route in the BW, 5, is way better than the worst numbered route in XY, 1. And the worst cave in BW, Wellspring Cave, is way better than the worst cave in XY, Chamber of Emptiness. Hell, Castelia's weird pixelation issue is way less of a problem than Lumiose having severe camera issues and a game breaking bug at launch. It's a real shame XY didn't have more maps to attempt to bridge the quality gap, as post-game maps tend to be designed differently because of how the developers view it and they tend to be more mechanically interesting.

XY removed gems, dream world, musicals, seasons, Entralink, join Avenue, buying berries, PWT, pokestar, and more while NOT replacing them. Therefore, XY has less/is shittier. BW removed but added many things, so you can’t say it has less content without arguing some content is better than other, which I’ll listen to.
Also, some of your are flat out false anon. For ribbons, sure Unova didn't add NEW ones, but we're talking about which has more content. Unova kept 80 ribbons from previous games, while XY ribbon-cut them down to 46. For berry farming, the Gen 5 berry system is much better. As for routes, there are routes that aren't named routes. If Kalos Route 1 counts, then I can criticize Kalos for "removing" the five bridges Unova had. BW does have more total locations so this is a shitty criticism. BW's bottom screen was also more useful than you chose to use, which isn't really anyone else's fault. Triple and Rotations were also more relevant in BW than XY. The poke radar is such a tiny fucking thing that BW has many of on that same small scale anyway.
It's funny how you pretend it has more content when you can't actually show how (opting to just say "it's bad" with no accuracy), while I did my first sentence.
