Paper Dragon Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I'm loving OR/AS but I am a little disappointed by how there's no character customization. Its not a big issue, but I was a little saddened by how I couldn't connect as much with my avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apotheosis Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Basically what has already been said. I don't care too much about restaurants but I do miss the cool option of character customization. Instead, it has gone back to giving you the face of a generic trainer of your choosing during multiplayer. The absolute biggest letdown was the no Battle Frontier. I was so excited for it but instead, was greeted by an absolute ripoff of the Battle Maison from X and Y. Even the trainer models of your opponents are from X and Y. Other than that, an absolutely great game, doing the original every bit of justice it deserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuxSpes Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I'm only really disapointed by the lack of customization and battle frontier. Otherwise, I think the games are great. They build on the things introduced in XY and add the Hoenn elements (which was is my favorite generations). The Delta Episode was great as well.

RJWalker Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) Lack of Groudon vs Kyogre. And Zinnia. She's legit one of the worst characters in Pokémon ever. Shows up out of no where and hijacks the plot to make it all about herself. Makes fools out of every character that is important and is generally unlikable.

CT075 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 lack of characterization and no restaurants like x and y.it's kind of shallow compared to actual XY restaurants, but the food court in mauville exists, doesn't it? as for me, I was so hype for battle frontier but then that didn't happen :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansem Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 they are staying true to source material. they will prolly release kappa emerald next year with the battle frontier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiki Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) - Garbage story, barely any script and laughably shallow - Lati forced down your throat in like 5 minutes out of nowhere - No customization - Ease - Lack of a lot of mega evolutions (like Milotic and Flygon) Edited November 27, 2014 by Chiki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ema Skye Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 It's. so. easy. Like I get that it's a game for kids but I'm able to beat this game in an afternoon and an evening without even trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Kamina Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) Lack of Mega Johto starters. Is Game Freak just gonna skip the the 2nd gen starters or what? Also not keeping character customization is really, really stupid. Edited November 27, 2014 by Monado Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florete Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I wish they had kept some of X/Y's features like appearance customization and centers and marts being combined. And then Battle Frontier. Yeeeeah, get on that, Game Freak. And Zinnia. She's legit one of the worst characters in Pokémon ever. Shows up out of no where and hijacks the plot to make it all about herself. Makes fools out of every character that is important and is generally unlikable.Hijacks what plot? The plot is over by that point. Her thing is just an add-on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZemZem Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 As much as I liked customization, it'd make no sense to change Brendan and May's characters. Just no BF disappointed me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elieson Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 The music disappointed me. Sure it felt like a throwback, but considering the intense energy felt in other games notable fights, the legendary music just felt so sluggish and blah. Also no battle frontier? Ill hold out for BetaEmerald Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadFighter Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Not even a nuzlocke without the EXP. share gives me trouble. I stick a starter in front of everything and win because of low level progression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roflolxp54 Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 My main caveats with ORAS are: -No Battle Frontier -The fact that many of the non-Hoenn legendary Pokemon are found by interacting with portals. That there just screams laziness to me and the portals themselves are rather cheesy. The fact that it also shows at the start of the battle (even with Pokemon whose locations do make sense like Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Thundurus, Tornadus and Landorus) just only adds to my point. I wasn't disappointed by the lack of character customization since I have never bought any customizations in X and Y. Also, customizations didn't exist in the original Ruby and Sapphire. I honestly laughed when I looked up on how pathetic Prof. Birch is in the post-story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emeraldfox Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I wonder why folks are still complaining about Pokemon being easy. Anywho~ Megas introduced in ORAS aren't compatible with XY, by that I mean I can't have Mega Diancie or Mega Salamence in my Y. Wallace exists Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Raven Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 The music disappointed me.

Ill hold out for BetaEmerald Yeah I thought the music was disappointing cause it sounds exactly the same but with better instruments.

shadowofchaos Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 As much as I liked customization, it'd make no sense to change Brendan and May's characters. It was simply a feature removed and that disappointed me. Even though it's the "next game", connection to the PSS and seeing X and Y man I almost typed MUs customizable player characters made me a little jealous. Also, still playing the game (and I never finished Ruby), so I haven't seen much that disappointed me yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 A few things so far. - No berry field - Boring gym designs again (the outside, mostly) - Juan isn't the eighth gym leader (seriously, screw Wallace, especially in his new design... Ew) - No Mega Johto starters like mentioned above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZemZem Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 There's an area on Route 123 that lets you plant tons of berries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djing Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I can't fly directly to my secret base. Especially annoying since mine requires Waterfall and the Acro Bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentacotus Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 No character customization and a few megas not present like Flygon, Claydol etc seem like missed opportunities. Other than that I got what I paid for and what I expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intrusion Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I felt that the character customization in X&Y was just right because of the whole beauty theme. And I think they wanted to stay faithful to the original games, while making it the more accessible Pokemon game at the same time. So maybe I'm the only one who thinks this, but I don't think it would have been a good idea to stick it in ORAS. As for disappointments... not much, I guess. Maybe it's because I'm still in love with it. My biggest complaint would be the lag, but that's something you can get used to pretty quick. I also don't like how May basically just stays at home once you get to the end. Does anyone know if you can do something to have rematches with her later?

Samias Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 - Juan isn't the eighth gym leader (seriously, screw Wallace, especially in his new design... Ew) Wallace still was the Champion in Emerald though... he would have been prominent in the game regardless. If anything he gets more exposure in that version of the game. I wish you could fly straight to Secret Bases, but on the other hand being able to fly to any route is still better than nothing. I miss the Pokemarts being in the Pokemon Center like it had been for several games considering they were willing to completely remodel Mauville City. Incompatible megas with XY is probably the biggest of all disappointments, though. Normally everything in one gen is more or less compatible so I wish they would patch XY with the data for ORAS megas. I still wish they would allow you to set repel-type items to your Y shortcut like many of the key items. Overall I have no problems with things like story in a Pokemon game. It's pretty much the same as it was all those years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
