they played the game though, he got hands on preview and says Nintendo told him you could turn it off and on. But maybe the person from Nintendo who told him that was actually incorrect

they removed furniture decoration from secret bases an atrocity possibly worse than removing safari from the gen 1 remakes

"but thankfully i think, they said, u can turn that off or on"

so is it from his experience or from hearsay?

Rep might’ve confused EXP Share for Autosave. Serebii says he’s spoken to other people that attended the previews and they’re all saying EXP share is mandatory

• always on EXP share
• single use tm’s
• concerts neutered
• music uses midi and is barely remixed
• underground removes furniture
• always available pc
• no battle frontier and possibly no distortion world

Unless they pack the post game with a lot of content I think I’m just gonna replay Platinum instead. Can’t believe they s*** the bed this much with Sinnoh. Even Lets Go were a better pair of remakes.

Wait LGFR had the Safari zone lol. Unless you're talking about Lets go lol

Man I wouldn't even take GameXplain words for anything. They lost all credibility after what happened a 2-3 years ago.

Well Gen 1 really isn't that hard to out do on a remake.

??

You didn't hear about the mistreatment, poor ethical journalism, misinformation that was spread due to Andre forcing crunch on his employees, lack of pay, etc? They lost over half their subs from that debacle.

Bro why they did bring back single use TM's? S*** one of the better quality of life changes they made

Is that info official?

From what GameSpot showed. It seems to contradict and also how good the games will be for new and old players. They never mentioned the post game as the preview didn't go that far. It goes up to Amity Square in hearthome and that's it. EXP share is always on, I don't know where GameXplain got that info that it could be toggled on or off. In DPP the EXP Share may actually work well in this game. Diamond and Pearl has one of the toughest level curves from the 8th Gym to Cynthia. The highest level Pokemon in Volkner gym is 48 and Cynthia's highest leveled Pokemon is 66.
GameSpot also said every attack animation was remade from scratch and has their own unique animation. So no more Pokemon just hop up and down. He also said the treehouse rep said Hyper Beam is the most impressive attack animation in the game. Everyone said Contest were changed for the better and are a lot quicker than in the original games.

Concerts aren't in Gen 4. You're thinking about Gen 5 musicals. Gen 4 had super contests and they were extremely long and tidious in the original games. Everyone has said they're exactly like before just not as long. The tapping rhythm mini game is still there.

Also the always available PC is still there.

"According to Polygon, you can change the Pokémon in your party with Pokémon in storage at anytime"

All the QOL upgrades from Gen 5-8 are in this game lol.

They also said it'll be an opportunity to get more TMs so it's not like it's a one time use and gone forever like in the original. This gives me credence that the Battle Frontier may be back.

Honestly the always on EXP isn't really an issue. Gen 4 has one of the hardest level curves in the franchise next to Gen 2.

Yes, but they're making it so you can just get TMs easily. They're staying faithful to how the games was. Taking you back to 2007.

no holy s*** what??

Yeah they basically did a whole rebrand with new people and Andre. They fell off the face of the Earth after it was exposed what was going on over there. An entire staff just doesn't up and quit out of no where. Actually it happened last year lol. Also read the comments. Andre is a pretty toxic person who weaponize GX fans.

Ehhh I wouldn't refund based off that. If this is truely a faithful remake then we're still getting one of the hardest Pokemon games in the mainline. Cynthia alone requires that exp all feature lol.

Also nice to see they still spread misinformation lol

they got rid of the safari in lets go, it had none of the post game content from previous gen 1 remake fire red/leaf green, and exp share was always on in that game too, plus they changed how wild battles worked for the worse.

i’d say let’s go is way worse for now but I gotta play this. Im upset about the furniture s*** but they did a lot to the underground.

Uhhh so apparently the starters in legends will have Hisui forms for their evolutions.

Let's go isn't even a "remake" of Gen 1. It's a reimagining of Gen 1. The character in the game isn't Red. Let's go best features is the game design.

No battle frontier ruins it. Why would anyone choose to play this s*** over Platinum?

Another dud

It's not confirmed there's no battle Frontier. GameXplained didn't explain their information well at all. The preview doesn't go pass the 2nd gym and they wouldn't talk about post game content.

The EXP definitely an issue, the level curve made the elite 4 hard af and made the Cynthia fight more memorable. If they wanted these games to be faithful remakes they should’ve made it an item as an option at least.

TM’s being single use is a major down grade. Highly doubt the battle frontier is coming back given the lack of platinum stuff we’ve seen so far and that the frontier is not on the map at all, but if they do bring it back I’ll be super hyped.

Unfortunately yeah bro

I think they did it in order to make the remakes “faithful” to the original, but if that was the case then why tf did y’all make EXP share always on
