ORAS was only 2nd to HGSS tbh.

This is true.

HGSS>ORAS>FRLG



Anyway, we all know the eventual DP remakes will obliterate them.

What the hell do you people think is a good post-game then? Sitting on your ass and EV training and going through battle facilities all day? Jesus Christ.

>Entire new region

You could take five steps in any given direction and you'd hit the boundaries of the Sevii Islands. They didn't even bother implementing some features like the Lost Cavern, and couldn't be bothered to fill out most of the islands beyond plopping down some patches of grass. Sevii Islands were weak.

I liked Emerald's Battle Frontier, and Delta Episode is good from what I hear (I couldn't get be assed to get to the first gym and play it for myself, I got bored). G/S's is obviously good, but Pokemon in general doesn't do anything much in the way of a post-game.

GameFreak better pull out all the stops for the DP remakes. There's NO excuses

[Lexiel]

Delta Episode was an added insult to the injury that was the entire game, I forced myself to finish that trash. I regret every second I spent on it.

And I agree, DP remakes will destroy everything

Then you can't criticize ORAS for it's "lack," as some say, of a post-game. Just keep that in mind!

RSE/ORAS is the best game... at least after HGSS.

I cannot find a copy of HGSS anywhere tho I need them to put it in the eShop or at least have it remade again for 3DS (which would slay so much)

As far as post-game, nothing touches the remakes!

Even just in general ORAS and HGSS are my 4 faves

I never said ORAS lacked a post-game!

I'm going to take my time and enjoy Gen 7 and try not to call out too many negatives and remain positive. I don't want to become bitter at everything Pokemon does 'wrong' and just accept it for what it is

Yeah, some people really do look to hard for flaws (nobody in particular in this thread).

[DripDrip]

ORAS didn't even include their only post game, the BF in it

It was a lazy attempt to cash in some money from GF. HG/SS was everything from Gen II but made better, while ORAS felt empty and despite its few things, nothing really felt improved, unlike the improvements made from G/S to HGSS.

ORAS was cute but it was boring and lifeless.

Everything was improved but the lack of the Battle Frontier and the difficulty, calling it "lifeless" is seriously just plain wrong

Honestly, this is what I have been doing (despite shading Gen V earlier this week in this thread).

It makes Pokemon enjoyable (because I do both EV training / IV breeding and collecting Pokemon). The former being so easily accessible and far more easier to achieve in a day as opposed to months of breeding in pre-Gen 6 mechanics.

The fact that the only thing they had to show for it was Mega Evolutions during its promotion says it all

It was just a slap stick copy with some improved graphics. An HD collection from PS3 to PS4

So we're just going to entirely ignore the many adjusted layers and elements to the story, the greater prevalence of Steven and the obtaining of Latias/Latios on Southern Island early, the complete overhaul of Mauville and Sea Mauville, etc. etc.?

I don't accept the idea that ORAS is any less an improvement than the last two sets of remakes were.

While I do participate in the shading and dragging, you guys do seem very passionate. More so when it comes to gen V, but idk I might be wrong.

I've enjoyed all the gens 100%. And I love things from each and every one. I wouldn't really make them different and really had fun in every single one.
