I loved a lot about the games. +more optional areas (like the desert and the inside of the mountain) +Trials. The totem 'mons felt like actual boss fights, more so than gyms. +region. It felt more lifelike and oozes with personality. Not the boring snoozefest X/Y was. There were less cities, but each of them feel unique from each other rather than just changing the color of the house's roofs and call it day. +art style. Getting rid of the stupid chibi style and having a look that closer resembles the anime +getting rid of HM's, finally +Pokemon designs are much better, as opposed to the shitfests we got in B/W and X/Y -Festival Plaza. A huge step back from PSS - Too many unskippable cutscenes Overall though, these games brought the series back up after the tragedy that was X/Y. |
I'm with this guy. Not a huge fan of Gen 7 itself, but people crap all over the many things it got right. Why anyone would ever want HMs back, at least in the way they were implemented the first six gens, is beyond my comprehension. And the designs of the Pokemon are easily the most inspired and fitting to the region of any generation thus far, hands down. Most of the comMons may suck competitively, but at least they weren't B/W level cookie cutter designs.
