>Game is a middle finger to veteran fans and prequels what are some examples? Skyrim maybe in the gameplay department and the whole 200 years after oblivion thing but it does has enough cameos to oblivion and morrowind.
Also worth noticing how BW2 (and then the every game after) and TP were a love letters to old entries instead of middle fingers
Obvious one, Paper Mario Sticker Star, maybe super too Kanto lives rent free in your head, there were also champions from the other gens, also goes that for Alola, also hey remember this? >>>> fuck you fans >hey remember that whole present day setting that made the first two games stand out and unique? Here have this generic fsntasy setting never played it but never seen much discussion except for the horrible controls, how did it fucked up the story more than commando and temperatures? >hey did you want more cross evos for useless Pokemon, new unique designs, more than one region and lore about the old regions? >lol fuck you here have some espies of old Pokemon and a shitty line instead

>Calling a game that was released first a "prequel"
Fucking DIE
Ian Wright
I don't get the hate for Super. It had great story and character, and fun gameplay. Sure it wasn't a turn based RPG like the previous two games but I think it's much less aggregious of a change than sticker star or color splash.
Jayden Nguyen
Ah yes, everyone remembers the champions and not the Kanto Pokemon that get featured instead or LGPE.
Can't wait to see how they fuck up the DP remakes.
Leo Morales
mother 3 wasn't a generic fantasy setting you stupid fucking redditor. did you play past the first chapter? did you even play the game at all?
Ryder Jackson
WW, BW and Mother 3 are all sequels to their previous entries dude, specially WW and Mother 3 I enjoyed Super but keep in mind I never touched the originals then, the biggest sin is making partners those weird pixie things but I think it's the best Paper Mario
Jose Rivera
Hard agree on WW, but Black took Pokemon off life support for me after Pearl's virtually unplayable game speed nearly killed it for me, though Moon's handholding would go and kill it off for me anyways so fat lot of good that did.
Jackson Butler
Clearly they didn't. Even then there is nothing wrong with the setting in the 1st 3 chapters.
Christian Cook
>Kanto Pokemon like all the good games that don't throw good Pokemon variety out of the window because muh espies? >LGPE That's shit for far more reasons than it's "kanto again" Ironically BW started the handholding trend after dppt was "too hard" for zoomers, bye bya exploration, hello annoying event every time I step in a new town or want to explore
Justin Cooper
Everything that made Earthbound great though is still present. The themes, witty character dialogue, and an overall wacky setting that surprises you with genuine heartfelt moments. >muh setting Both games act as commentary on modern-day life. Mother 3 is just an extrapolation on it.
Kevin Watson
>mother 3 I don't see it. It's definitely a change in setting, but I don't see how it's a fuck you to fans at all. B/W definitely qualifies since damn near everyone hated a lot of the designs and particularly bad ones were highlighted and talked about to infinity and beyond MY MOM'S ICE CREAM CONE, but people gradually warmed up to it over the years. Wind Waker definitely fucking qualifies, even if I like it now. That trailer shown off had to have been during the beta stages, so grabbing it when I was a young lad and booting it up was like getting kicked in the balls. Now I appreciate the art style and mostly enjoy sailing. Fuck that Triforce quest, though.
I think that bias was due to the newer Pokemon not being as warmly accepted, but it was the best way to get you to actually bother interacting with the new generation. Nothing was cut out, you just had to beat it and then they'd start popping up. Didn't the sequel even have some older Pokemon before the postgame, in rustling grass? If only people knew how bad things would really get.
Henry Price
You're right, it isn't there, and it genuinely doesn't matter. If that's your only complaint with the game then I'm sorry, I question if you even enjoyed Earthbound to begin with since literally everything that made it special is present in Mother 3.
The decision to go further with the chapters theme and fully imitate imitate the torneko chapter from DQ4 in chapter 3 was an ... interesting choice. At least Enix had an excuse that they didnt know not being able to control any of your characters attacks in combat was cancer because they did it first, but I don't know why HAL would want to imitate that.
Christopher Butler
People will respond to this bait seriously for the next three hours
Alexander Peterson
youtu.be/SvE3yJv3fm0 This one. Granted there was a trailer next year that was more accurate to the finished game, but people had some damn high hopes and a lot had no idea how to react that next year. I was one of those people that was mad.
Jordan Miller
Most people are fine swoosh for the same reason RS (first dexit no one acknowledges) got scoot free, I'm not forced to use new garbage only
Would like to add that if you only hate swoosh because muh dexit you're a retard, the game is shit because it looks like a 3ds game and is shit overall not because it doesn't has stantler
Jayden Stewart
Imagine complaining about either, lmao. I always use new Pokes and the dex cut was bound to happen eventually. SS is shit but it's not a valid complaint against it.
You could get old Pokes like Mareep and Riolu in the ranch before the first badge in BW2.
Leo Nelson
Yes, BW2 had old pokemon and new pokemon integrated into maingame and postgame. And BW1 had quite a few older mons as well, its not like they just cut everything.
>dude if you hate SS because of dexcut you're dumb >its bad because of graphics Fucking retard. SS is bad because the gameplay itself is loaded with garbage, like shit routes, shit battles and shitty cutscenes that you have to mash through, and the most embarrassingly bare postgame since Crystal. Wait, less than Crystal since SS has zero optional areas.
Graphics fags being fucking morons as usual. That's like 10th down the line of SS's major problems.
