![]() It’d be disingenuous for me to pretend that there are no meaningful changes. “Faithful” is being used more as a buzzword than having any actual meaning. Forced EXP Share? Little Platinum content? Basically just DP content plus like two new features that aren’t just mechanical changes with minimal effort graphics? I hate the constant excuse that it’s “faithful,” like that’s supposed to mean anything, or make up for the fact that this is basically less the kind of remake seen in HGSS and ORAS and more just a new version of base Diamond and Pearl being sold for sixty dollars on a modern console. Sword and Shield not having a dex was sucky, and I don’t feel like the actual game had anything to make up for this huge loss for the series, but at least it didn’t fuck with my childhood on the same level as it looks like BDSP is about to. I’m not going to claim i’m completely behind the changes done by the last few generations, but i’m not a GBA/DS-era purist either. I even preordered the double pack (ended up cancelling it though). I was looking forward to BDSP, that first trailer was not great but that second one gave me a bunch of hope, and then the trailers kept coming, and then the gameplay previews with influencers. God damn if the past month or so has just been the most disappointing and infuriating for me as a pokemon fan.
