>The pokemon are boring and have crappy designs>Way too many cutscenes. The introduction was way too long. Feels handholdy as fuck.>The animation and graphics are giving me a headache. Way too jerky and falls into this uncanny valley between 2D and 3D.>The villains seem to be continuing the trend of "haha Pixar silly humor" of Team Galactic
>>59109113But it has hype moments and aura
OP always makes 3 or 4 bw or xy box art threads every day huh
>>59109122Dude I started playing yesterday. Feels like a massive downgrade coming off Platinum.>>59109119Should I keep playing? I just beat the first gym. Apparently its gimmick was that they always choose the one that has a type advantage over my pokemon? But I got a pansear for free from some random NPC so I don't get the point. Does it get better from here on?
>>59109113t. illiterate
>>59109141It gets a lot better in my opinion. The first gym feels a bit slow but afterwards it only gets better.
>>59109141just skip to bw2, bw1 suck
>>59109113Neither do i. I first played them when they first released and even back then they basically looked the same as gen 4 graphics-wise and only introduced things that looked dumb or were annoying. The story was a huge part of this with all the pesudointellectual babbling about truth and ideals being slapped onto the black and white legendaries which made no sense and team plasma showing promise as something unique with the free the pokemon goal but only ending up being just be another Team Rocket bent on world domination in the end. The battle graphics were also terrible with all severe pixelation, copypasted and tweened gen 4 sprites and janky camera movements. The pokemon designs are also very half-baked and low effort - they seemed to be aiming for quantity over quality. Its obviously just a gapfiller gen while GF worked on XY so i dont know why its praised so much.
>>59109141black 2 is awesome, great game. Black 1, is kind of boring. Everyone who says they like gen 5 is referring to bw2 and not bw1
>>59109113>>59109151>>59109159Also the designs just suck. Look too baby-ish. I am usually not the type to dwell on this since I know pokemon is a kid's franchise, but this is just lame. I was a kid top once and I would have wanted hulking dragons and monsters, not whatever these are. I'm sure part of the appeal was watching the little pokemon you caught grow up into a badass beast.Keep in mind I haven't played any recent pokemon game and am getting back into the franchise after a long time and am going in a chronological order to do some catching up.
>>59109195>I was a kid top oncea what
>>59109244Kid too* once
Zoomer peak
>>59109162Nope, bw1 has a great story and actually feels like a proper world. The gameplay is improved a tiny bit but if someone hates bw1 they're not gonna like BW2 lol
>>59109195>hulking dragonsWere Haxorus, Druddigon and Zekrom not enough?
>kino animated 2d sprites>super battle subwayAll I care about desu.
>>59110454forgot the pic
>>59109162b2w2 are bw with slightly worse story and slightly better gameplay. the story and gameplay of gen 5 as a whole are both some of the worst in the pokemon series so youre polishing turds either way
>>59109113Astroturfed because of thishttps://youtu.be/LasrD6SZkZk
>>59109195yeah man real badass designs like bibarel and wormadam and sunflora and pelipper that's what's missing
>>59111175the single most kino image in all of pokemon
>>59111375it really is
>>59111175>Hilbert is officially a aura farmer
>>59110454>>kino animated 2d sprites
>>59109113>I just don't get the appealthere is very little, yes
