They...are...just...too...slow.....to....enjoy.....in.....2026....especially....when....they....weren't......that.....good....to....begin....with....to....justify....playing....over...something....like...ORAS...or....B2W2
Diamond and Pearl are. Platinum is fine. I used both to complete the dex and the difference is baffling.
>>59037229I still find Platinum agonizingly slow
>>59037226lvl100 blissey tho
>>59037226im...sorry...about...your...adhd....and....agp...faggot
>>59037239Not OP but I've always loved Gen 4 and replay it every now and then but it's objectively slow as shit and has NO right to be when BW/BW2 are on the same console and are significantly faster, you can't just pretend GF didn't fuck up and deflect with muh ADHD, you disingenuous retard
>>59037301to be fair diamond and pearl were the first pokemon games on the nintendo ds so i'd give them a pass on this one. hg/ss/bw/bw2 all came after. looks like they learned from their mistakes in gen 4
>>59037226>>59037233You have ADHD
>>59037226I'd rather play diamond at .25 speed then play dogshit ORAS
>>59037312hg/ss is slow as fuck as and copy/pasted the retarded level balance from gsc making it double slow if you want to raise anything, they didn't learn anything with that one
>>59037226This is a good thing. Platinum out of all the Pokemon games symbolizes the feel of a slow burn adventure the best. Going through the snowy landscape in route 216 / 217, traversing Coronet, Route 227 just to name a few things are the peak of Pokemon
>>59037226i like dppt but i feel like they are the biggest "retread" in the series, like phys-special split aside, they genuinely bring nothing to the table that isnt in rse. they feel like a rom hack of rse to me more than a game with truly its own identity. theyre still good games i think but i feel like theyre just the games that offer the least to the table if youve played other games in the series (which dppt was the last of the original games ive played) also i havent played any of the switch games so i might moreso think its one of them instead if i had played them, but from what i have played, its dppt
>>59037388Wrong. RSE removed so many features introduced in GSC. DPPt brought them back and added even more. RSE is the black sheep gen of the franchise and that's a fact not an opinion.
You're just dopamine addicted, please seek treatment.
>>59037519thats the thing though, dppt just feels like a collection of what the previous games already offered, i cant really think of anything of its own besides the region itself. im not saying its terrible, its just like, rse again but with some mechanics rse took out thrown back on
>>59037226It’s always funny when some aspie implies a Pokemon game is too slow or whatever, then you go on /r/nuzlocke or YouTube or some shinyfaggot’s page and see 10 playthroughs of it a day.
>>59037541It's very slow because I... need to read all the flavor text from every npc for the 100th time. And also I need to grind my ideal dream team to an equal level or I won't be playing as intended. It's very slow when you try and catch the correct nature of pokemon you see.
>>59037226ADHD
>>59037226>ORAS...or....B2W2the two worst sets of mainline games in the franchise (PLA isnt mainline)
