It’s not nostalgia. Old Pokemon was better.

I clean my ass with RSE cartridges after leaving a fat BW2 in my toilet.

I know some may not agree but Gen 4 was literally THE PEAK.

What the fuck are we gonna do? It’s never gonna be better. I don’t understand why.
>>
>>58326024
Black and White 2 was the last game they put their all into and because it didn't sell well they gave up making good games

>It’s not nostalgia. Old Pokemon was better.

at the time they said the old games sucked and the only people who like them grew up on them

BDSP is a 1 to 1 remake of D&P and everyone fucking hates it

every 6 or so years a new pokemon game enters the "best game ever" line first it was gen 3 then everyone glazing 4 then the gen 5 defenders now people are genuinely saying gen 6 was the best

yall gotta be retarded

>>58326024
They are better handheld games than current Pokémon are as console games.

I love that that video starts with that and then it's just the guy explaining how he grew up with the game he's using as an example and how many fond childhood memories he has of it, all the while the game he's referring to isn't even the definitive version of that gen, thus completely undermining his point and proving that it is, indeed, nostalgia

the old world was better, not only pokemon

You have no idea what you're talking about.

Old pokemon was so nortubel tier

>>58326024
Grid Map Design was the greatest loss of Pokemon from S/M onwards.

>lying about how much hate the old games received compared to the new ones
>ugly rushed and buggy unity ports of dp sold for 60 dollars are a spit in the face and are rightfully hated for obvious reasons
>literally no one says gen 6 is "best game ever"
you're the retarded one here

it's hated because of it's ass backwards dumb as fuck graphics in the overworld. it's basically a fucking port the way it looks. they took the cheapest and laziest route possible in making it like that instead of closer to SWSH.

That's literally not even a hot take?
It freaks me out though that were 6 when XY came out are 18 now and old enough to post here, like, literally never knew about the age when Pokemon was good.
People who came in late also WONT remember because they will never have the old games as their "daily driver" games so to speak, and only appreciate them through main campaign playthroughs / Nuzlockes, rather than as something you play every day and get the most out of the world / postgame content.

Everything has to get worse because people are literally just braindead and have no taste.
No, this isnt a "uh people buy it anyway" complaint, people literally go out of their way to constantly bitch and moan about aspects of the games that made them good until we get left with the games we have now, which for many people are EXACTLY what they want despite being utter slop.
>>
>>58326040
It got better with every new release though.
>>
>>58327934
This isnt even just about pokemon btw, every single game series I enjoy (and I play a LOT of games) gets shittier and shittier over time because people cant identify what made the older ones good and keep asking for all the little inconveniences or little sources of friction sanded off not realizing that they all incidentally came together as a whole to form the overall feel of the game and what made it good.

this is a post about Monster Hunter

You were right for a time :^)
>GS was better than RB (if you arent a nuzlocke retard)
>RS were the same as GS, E was better.
>DP were better than RS but worse than E, but PT and HGSS are the same or better than E
>BW is better than RS and FrLg but worse than DP, E, Pt, HGSS
>BW2 are better than DP but worse than E, Pt, HGSS,
>XY was worse than every game except maybe RB
>SM was worse than XY
>USUM are just SM again
>SwSh was same or better than SM but worse than XY
>SV is worse than everything again.
Its a bell curve thats very shakey looking at the top.

>>58327312
bw2 didn't sell bad
>>
>>58327967
It didnt but Gen 3-5 in general, despite being darlings for a lot of fans, underperformed massively relative to the rest of the franchise.
This has nothing to do with the quality of the games btw, its because Americans who bought pokemon games as a kid all started to enter high school or certain middle schools around that time where you couldnt like Pokemon anymore due to various social expectations , and then by the time XY, SM and Go came out everyone was getting into college age or adulthood where you can like and buy whatever you want, plus the MCU and Big Bang Theory "normalizing" nerd culture, so everyone felt it was acceptable to buy pokemon games again.
>>
oh look another whiggish slop thread
>>
>>58327962
>lolpinions posted as facts again
Every new Gen pair supersedes the previous pair kid. NO exceptions, even if you has a sad 3D took your spriteshit away and they changed how they developed games to lean into that, than return to spriteshit wank.

XY is better than BW, BW2, and DP

retarded ass thread
>>
>lolpinons stated as facts harder
Nothing beats the buggyness of early Gens kid. Fucking Gen 4 had a newly discovered bug not a month ago, for fuck's sake (the gift that keeps on giving). Kids today don't know what bugs pre-release SV had,because the egregious ones got patched and the rest came from emulation on non-native hardware (something that doesn't affect kids whose mummy buys them a games console to play the game on).

All wrong btw.
