The worst part is that we love Pokémon and just want it to improve. But people just assume we’re haters or entitled just because we ask for a franchise that makes so much money to try harder. When the Let’s Go games are the best games to come out in about 5 years, that’s just depressing.
-
BDSP beating Metroid Dread in sales in the first few weeks is the most undeserved feat Pokemon has ever obtained
-
the fandom went from super excited for hoenn remakes, to super excited for sinnoh remakes.. to "please don't touch black and white"
-
We could have gotten Primal Dialga and Primal Palkia. RIP the possibilities
-
Im praying hard to never see an Unova remake at this point. Imagine a remake or "remaster" that is somehow worse than BDSP.... i shudders at the possibilities.
-
You wanna know how "faithful" these games are? They actually kept in glitches and oversights from the original DS games, such as the ability Sticky Hold having no effect in the overworld. Why they would deliberately have the remakes retain detrimental glitches from the originals? I wish I knew.
-
It’s almost astonishing how the developers have managed to fail at something that they had previously succeeded at. It’s the gaming equivalent of changing your answer on test when you were right the first time, or retaking a test and somehow doing worst the second time around.
-
Masuda: Let’s remake it faithfully! Masuda: Keep the forced XP share.
-
"Is having one button for traditional faithfulness more important than a logical convenient function?" - Gireum Red
-
People really need to understand that the people that validly criticize the game aren't saying they can't have fun with it. What confuses me is the fan's willingness to defend a product that could and should have been much more for the price it is.
-
The funny part is that in the manga, they actually had a plot line that involved the dex not having all the sinnoh pokemon. When Cyrus evolves magneton and nosepass into magnezone and probopass, when the protagonists couldn't defeat them because the dex gave no information about them. In the games, there's no reason for this restraint at all.
-
I don’t know why, but of all things, them removing Berries dance animation was the most egregious change- It’s like they removed a massive chunk from his character by doing that.
-
“Its a diamond and pearl remake, not a platinum one” 🤡 imagine having to justify buying this crap with that statement. In denial over the fact that a ds game is better than a switch game in 2021.
-
The world record speedrun for this game is under 20 minutes. Idk how they made a game more broken than the originals. Not so faithful >:(
-
Pearl was my first Pokémon game but I’ve gotten so used to Platinum that I don’t even remember things like the Pokétch having one button, the Galactic building in Eterna City being a normal apartment building, and the ghost gym being a math quiz.
-
Well if their is one positive BDSP is it making people appreciate ORAS more.
-
Tbh the saddest thing about this is that this game got awesome sales, it's basically the best selling Pokémon game on its first week after release. And that's just plain sad. We as a fandom haven't learned a thing. There's no reason for GF, ILCA and the Pokémon company to change or improve. Any type of game they release will immediately be best-selling, so why put any effort???
-
"Ahhh, it's the 25th anniversary of Pokemon. What's the best way to remind fans about how Gen 1 the greatest region? I know, how about Diamond and Pearl less effort faithful remake since the pokedex has 151."- Junichi Masuda
-
I owe ORAS a massive apology after this game
-
The fact that DP will never get a remake in style of the pass games honestly just hurts me.
