      Tho main issue when it comes to be a Unity game is that it's not easy to implement custom models.
      Even the current process of model importing is still tedious and messy.
      Plus another issue of the game is gonna have updates time to time, causing some of the mods to not work on the latest.

      Since all these guys care about is money they would probably make so much more if the games were actually good. its sad to see that people still say platinum is the better version. You would think a remake of a game made fucking 15 years ago would at least improve upon it so you can confidently say "yeah this is better you should buy it" but no.
      HGSS got it right and improved upon GSC so much:
      Pokemon got better movesets
      physical special split making alot of pokemon actually useable.
      A way to get the kanto starters, legendary birds, and mewtwo which were not in originals as well as gen 3 legends
      implemented the suicune story from crystal
      pokemon followed you as the same pace as you walked
      BDSP
      Removed infinite use TM's, a staple since gen 5
      removed a bunch moves which could be used by pokemon
      most gen 4 evos locked behind post game
      alot of pokemon were removed
      pokemon following is not as well done
      launched as a buggy mess with missing features like the opening and the credits
      didnt even have a gts at launch in the remake of the gen that introduced it
      tedious way to get only gen 1-4 legendaries that feels like it was added in last second
      They didnt even make the Tm's into TR's which would actually make sense since they can break while regular Tm's don't anymore.
      people bring up the argument that BDSP is not a platinum remake but HGSS is supposed to be a gold and silver remake and yet it has elements from crystal? Its almost as if the name of the game doesn't matter.

    It's amazing how many people can turn garbage into a masterpiece meanwhile a company that makes billions of dollars from this series can't implement simple mechanics or improve upon their original concept
    It's clear that not a lot of effort was put into this remake and they were probably more focused on Legends Arceus
    But even that's not true because Legends Arceus seems like a tech demo for the upcoming gen 9 game
    Which is a shame because it just goes to show you how greedy they can be when they focus more on literally anything else except on the quality or even the story building, I mean why is the story so complex now?

      The only person at GF who worked on BDSP was Masuda, who was overseeing the project. All the devs who actually care and try to make the games good, were busy with Legends Arceus and SV, and they had about a year to develop both.
      It's not that Game Freak doesn't work hard. They're literally not given the time to finish their games. You try being put on a yearly release schedule for fully 3D HD games and see what you can turn out in terms of quality.
      Compare the release schedule of the last 2 generations of pokemon to the development time of Tears of the Kingdom, which was already being built off of the same game engine and the entire BotW map, *and* had a dev team over 4 times the size of GF number of employees, and it STILL took about 5 years to come out.

      that being said, there was clear lack of effort put on part by the development team to make this function appealing. In contrast to the originals where time was taken out to jam pack as many notable features onto cartridges and systems that were way weaker. It's the amount of effort relative to the generation and the system. It's not even close, they could have been miles better. In that regard, these games are awful and Yellow does indeed have superior function when it came to walking Pokemon.

    EDIT: Why do so many people wanna argue what the worst Pokemon game is that is not the point of the video 💀 BDSP is a rushed buggy pile of trash made by an outsourced company with no Pokemon dev experience that keeps so many of the worst parts of gen 4 and leaves out so much of the good stuff, worst Pokemon mainline game easily and is a slap in the face cash grab for anyone that's a fan of Sinnoh. Legends Arceus is a better gen 4 remake than BDSP

    • @brainsteroids8043
      @brainsteroids8043 2 ปีที่แล้ว +37

      I agree that BDSP are the worst remakes compared to the others, and I'll defend your opinion if you hate them, but they are absolutely not *THE WORST.* They're still *absolutely superior* to SWSH and USUM. The creative growth stunting of the remakes are mainly the fault of Junichi Masuda. The main issues with the game is the lack of lore expansion, no new forms for the legends, the lack of difficulty, and the enforced exp share issue. The national dex issues still suck, but they're way better than those in SWSH. Besides those faults, I appreciate ILCA's work. Yes, they've worked on other games, but this is the first game they've ever actually made. And when your first game gets rushed, of course it's going to be shitty, to some extent.
      The artstyle could have been better, but it's polished, and the charm is growing on me. The remaking of the many Iconic gen 4 features did feel good. The OST is orchestrated wonderfully. (And my personal favorite feature is the return of following pokemon in the overworld, without having to pay for a pathetically mundane dlc pack.) Diamond and Pearl were big games, and it took a lot to remake them.
      Yes, the game is still shitty, and was released unfinished. But is it the worst? HELL NO

  • @cyberdrache8416
    @cyberdrache8416 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    In my opinion BDSP are the worst remakes of all time. Here are some reasons why:
    1. Faithfulness: Unlike other remakes, this game literally copy & pastes 90% of the game from diamond/pearl. Diamond/Pearl are games from 2006. You cannot copy almost everything from a game that more than 10 years old. (Remember this is a remake not a remaster!). Almost everything: All dialogs, the storyline, the art style, the national dex, old pokemon encounters and even the Poketch were copy & pasted to this game. Pokemon games have been improved in the past years and had many quality of life changes like 3D art style, overworld Pokemon encounters and reusable TMs. None of these changes were
    adapted to the game which is just sad. This game is too faithful and faithful sounds more like a excuse for lazyness.
    2. Not-Platinum-Based: So they copy & pasted 90% from the old Sinnoh game but not based on Platinum? Diamond & Pearl had several weaknesses and Platinum fixed many of them and included many Quality of Life changes. Here are some Platinum improvements over Diamond/Pearl: It extends the storyline with additional content, new dialogs, new characters like Charon and a new map Distortion world (loved it). The rival was a bit too weak in Diamond/Pearl which was fixed in Plat. The Poketch has 2 Buttons. It has the battle frontier. And finally: the Sinnoh dex which was baaad in Dia/Pearl was fixed (too less fire pokemon, many sinnoh mons were post-game restricted and gym leaders used off-Type pokemon). ALL of these great changes where NOT included in BDSP. That makes BDSP a worse Sinnoh remake than Platinum which was released in 2008.
    3. EXP-Share & Friendship-System: One of the most hated features is the EXP-Share system which often leads to WAY more exp than in the past games. In my opinion, the EXP-Share is not too bad. BUT diamond/pearl were not designed to be played with the new EXP-Share system. So if you include an EXP-Share system, you have to increase all levels of the pokemon (from opponent). But they didnt which makes the difficulty of this game too easy.Basically, my whole team was too oveleveled. And the friendship-system is the worst luck-based system i ever saw. A feature that increases the Critical hit-chance,removes paralysis, lets me dodge 100% accurate moves and even lets me survive moves with 1HP. WTF did you smoke gamefreak? And the worst is that, you cannot make any of these optional. Because of that many players who love to do a nuzzlock in Sinnoh, prefer the old DS games.
    3. No Innovation: This game not only copy & pastes the majority of its content, it adds nothing new to the game. Lets review some good remakes: HeartGold/SoulSilver (HG/SS) were Gen 2 remakes and included some storyline from Crystal and added many new stuff like the pokeathlon, battle frontier (from sinnoh), gen 1 map/storyline, a complete national dex and pokewalker. HG/SS were not copy & pasted, but actually remake the game and add good new stuff. Also Alpha ruby&omega saphire (ORAS) have new changes like new art-style , new designs for Team magma/aqua, new Mega-forms, new Primal forms, changes to dialogs and storyline and complete national dex. BDSP on the other hand does not provide any kind of major change in the game which makes this game really boring. It does have a new Underground which has overworld pokemon, but that is nothing special for 2022 and the ramanas park was neat but nothing too exciting.
    4. Underground/Super-Contest: The old underground allowed to create your own living room with furnitures and set traps to troll friends online. Both were removed for a statue system which is really boring. Collecting statues and the effects of the statues are really disapointing. The Super-Contest used to be a fun-mode where you had many different options and varities and had to have good reflexes to do
    the correct moves at the correct time. Now all you have to do is Press A at the correct time and use 1 attack. That makes this mode so boring and disapointing. I mean, was it really that hard to let the player press like 4 different buttons instead of just A??
    5. Art-Style: Many of us expected a modern review of Sinnoh in a 3D human like Art-style. But they decided to go for the Chibi-Art-Style. Everyone has different tastes but in my opinion the Chibi-Art-Style ruins many serious moments of the story line of this game, especially vs team galactic. It feels like all the emotions of the characters were removed. The reason why it was used in Diamond/Pearl was because of the limited hardware. In my opinion the Chibi-Art-Style waas the wrong decision and does suit a switch game at all.
    6. Only Gen 4: BDSP has a national dex which includes the pokemon from Gen 1-4 which is basically the same as Diamond/Pearl. As a player who would have loved to see at least some Pokemon from Gen 5-8 in Sinnoh, i am very disapointed. At least some Pokemon post Gen4, or some new forms or at least Sylveon. Not even mega-forms were included in this game. The fact that 95% of the megas are from Gen1-4 and the underground being the perfect place to grind the mega-stones, makes this decision even more disapointing.
    7. PVP: On of the worst things in this game is everything arround PVP. The worst disrespect a main series pokemon game can get, is when GameFreak calls that all the competitive tournaments will not take place in BDSP. Unlike Sword/Shield, you have no option to search for PVP matches which makes it way harder to find battles. But the worst thing is the grind for a PvP team: TMs are not reusable (WHY?!). For some important TMs like Earthquake, you have to grind for 80BP (WTF). Also you cannot catch pokemon with hidden abilities except those from poke radar. To get the hidden ability you have to grind for the ability patch for 200BP (WTF). By putting important PVP items behind such ridiculously high grind walls, it makes creating a PVP team disgusting.
    8. Events: The events were also copy & pasted from Diamond/Pearl. Same Shaymin event, same Darkrai event. And other events are only accesible if you bought other main series pokemon game. And finally some garbage "events" which include some useless statues. Meanwhile, the 3 year old SW/SH getting better and innovative events like new PVP cups/tournaments and some legendary shinies. In my opinion the events in BDSP are disapointing.
    9. Bugs/Glitches: Holy Moly! This game had so many bugs and glitches! You dont even need hacks, when the game itself has to many glitches. Many of them where completely broken. Many Pokemon clone glitches and item dupe glitches ruined the game. You could even get infinity money, create your own shinies (WTF), make your pokemon 6IV and let any Pokemon learn any move. I used to be in a discord for trading in BDSP and because of the glitches, the trade market was only about getting shiny 6IVs etc.
    Not to forget to mention the soft locks which made you restart the whole game. Usually every games has a few bugs. But this had too many and too many game breaking glitches.
    10. Controls: The controls of this game feel weird and uncomfortable. Characters move in a grid which looks so weird during the storyline. The pokemon who follow me often block me in a bad way. The underground has many inivisible walls which make moving in some rooms horrible. And finally the control with the cycle are horrible. It feels so uncomfortable moving with the cycle, i sometimes even prefer walking.
    11. Price: The fact that this game costs 60$ at release which copy & pasted the majority of a 40$ DS game from 2006 is just a joke. No words.
    12. Conclusion: It feels like GameFreak didnt want to do a Sinnoh remake but wanted to milk some money by releasing the highly demanded Sinnoh remake. The fact that, they hired a 3rd party company who never developed a major game, only supports this theory. Not forget to mention that, BDSP had a giant day one patch which was essential to enjoy the game. The fact that they released Legends Arceus also supports the theory, that they didnt care at all for this remake. The worst thing is that, it was soo easy to make them great games. All they had to do was like making a game based on-Platinum, include megas and increase the levels of all trainers or make EXP-share/friendship optional. Because of the release of Legends Arceus, the hiring of ILCA, the amount of glitches, the boring events, the exclusion of VGC, the 0 Innovation in this game and the fact that the majority of the game is copy & paste of a 2006 game (Dia/Pearl) which is worse than a 2008 Game (Platinum), makes this game the worst remake of all time in my opinion.

    Honestly BDSP was very amazing. But I will agree that ILCA was forced to rush out an unfinished game by TPC/GF/Nintendo. However, as of 1.3.0 it is honestly really a good game finally (excluding them patching out all of the fun bugs now). Really the only thing that would make this set better would be sigma platinum with the actually platinum event stuff, removing true size, and allowing easy enable/disable of the exp share and affection features. Also, SwSh was 100% the absolute worst main series game. It was an unfinished and boring story barely long enough to be called main series. They then sold you the rest of the game for another $30 and honestly even then the game was very incomplete. It's clear that with Gen 8 they were just seeing how far they could push the limits of players by their greed to skim everything they could from people. BDSP at least gives you all the content upfront and does it decently well.
