Kids dont know pokemon red at all
The new generation just buys black and white/x and y, beats the elite four and then considers the game "Finished"

Its a damn fucking shame. I had high hopes for my younger brothers to carry the torch on well as I grew up

But they're a fucking disgrace to pokemon

No, 25 hours is not enough time invested into a brand new pokemon game

1000 hours? Really? I made a complete living Pokedex in X/Y (719 Pokemon), beat the Battle Maison thing, got tons of 6IV'd Pokemon, made teams of battle-ready Pokemon, bought every outfit, fought online, and more in under 300 hours until I got bored. Red/Blue had way, way less to do in them. What on earth did you do?

Pokemon Red was as magical to my childhood as Vanilla WoW was for my teens. We were lucky to grow up with such good games.

Nothing wrong with that, honestly. Pokemon's main campaign is just long enough to justify the price.

>>253533807

I played Pokemon Blue back when it was new.

I've only been getting 50-70 hours out of Pokemon ever since gen 3. Playing the SP is pretty much all I do, maybe a Pokemon battle or two with a friend. I play them mostly because I like catching Pokemon I come across. I'm not at all competitive.

There was one time when I went full "that kid" mode with one of my friends involving Smash. This was back during the N64 days, and I started bullshitting him saying how the next game would have an item that turned your character metal (Like Metal Mario) and how there'd be a barrel item that you could throw and it would shoot you in a random direction (Like that one barrel in DK'S stage).

There were several other things I pulled out of my ass, but the distinct thing I remember was that by the time Melee came out, every single fucking thing came true.I didn't read it online or in a magazine, I was just lying like a cunt, but somehow it all came true.

It just sticks in my mind.

Around here we were at least. I remember my grandparents had dial-up as far in as like 2006 (though by then it was considered very obsolete). Melee is creeping up on 15 years.
>>
>>253534521

Back then you fucked around doing stuff, just kids exploring aimlessly.
I caught all 150 and trained about 8 to level 100 on blue and I probably put in about 1000 hours.
But I would tell stories with my games, I would treat them as my bros and go on adventures like they did on the show. That was the appeal of pokemon for me, and why every game after Sapphire has been disappointing.
I didn't look anything up, so you had to actually waste hours trying items on pokemon to see what made them evolve, and junk like that.
The new games have too much story for kids to make their own up, it's kind of sad.

We didn't get DSL till like 04 where I lived. I think through the early 00s the best you could get ISDN, and that was mostly if you were running an office out of your house. And if you think 05 was bad, my friend still had dial up till like 2010. There were many times when mid raid we'd call his house number just to disconnect him so he couldn't pick up shit.

1000 still sounds like a stretch without a lot of idle time, but I can buy that I guess. I remember it took me like 100 hours to beat Twilight Princess because I just loved how the game looked and would avoid the story to do my own thing. People mocked me, needless to say.

I probably did though. During sleepovers friends and I would start playing at 3pm and play for 12 hours, just having adventures and shit. That time builds up, also, being a poorfag I only had a few games, and I got Silver after everyone else.

I just can't picture 1000 hours. That's a fucking lot of time. For reference, I think it took me 40 hours to beat LeafGreen, which was my first pokemon experience ever. I had no idea what I was doing and I definitely wasted heaps of time doing things wrong as well. But I clocked it. I basically only put it down after I got sick of looking for Suicune well after I'd completed all of the story and leveled my 6 to the point where it got tedious.

It really was though. Back before the term "WoW-clone" became a common way to describe new mmos, WoW in Vanilla and BC was THE casualized EQ-clone that verteran MMO players hated, much in the sameway that Halo was the casual poster child amongst hardcore FPS fans. It was so bad on 4chan that you basically had to go to /b/ to even talk about it, WoW threads on /v/ before 06 would get shitposted to death. I don't like using the Nostalgia argument but it really applies here when Vanilla Wowfans seemingly forget how shitty and casualized the game was yet turn around and say the same shit about modern WoW. It's all relative.

>You're confusing polish with game design.
No I'm not. I'm talking specifically about streamlined dumbed down games, the kind of games that are "cinematic experiences" or filled with microtransactions and other nonsense.

u wot son

a friend of mine got into pokemon because it got it free, so he figured he'd give it a shot. the way he played it at first kinda confused me a bit
>"meet me at the cafe to trade?"
>"you know we can just trade anywhere, right?"
>"yeah, but let's meet at the cafe."

then we sat on the opposite side of a table and... well, traded. he also let me play with his pokemon in amie when he was busy, and thanked me for "keeping a good relationship with [his] pokemon."

he's not terribly into it and has a fairly large amount of things to do on his plate compared to me, so he traded eight of his favourite pokemon to my game and said i should play with them because he felt bad that they might be lonely. i figured, okay, whatever, i'll play with 'em in amie once or twice, i don't really do much with my own party members, after all.

i amie'd them for a while, then just decided randomly to go for a walk with the ones i had in my party.

so i did, just a beach walk, running around in the water, nothing too interesting.

decided to go shopping in one of the clothing boutiques; i mused that his meowstic would hide in the displays and jump out to scare people [naughty nature], and that vaporeon enjoyed it quite a bit because he had a good fashion sense [dat collar]

i then went on a bit of a hike through a cave with them, then swapped them out with other pokemon to explore lumiose, that giant-ass hub city in the middle [in which i'm /still/ finding things and got it not long after release] - we went to a restaurant and climbed the eiffel tower. i never would've really done it without him "guiding" me there. it was the most fun i've had with pokemon in a very long time.

maybe i unlocked a bit of my inner autism, maybe i unlocked a bit of my inner kid, but the thing is, it's still totally possible use your imagination; in fact, now there's even more stuff to do.

the game's not different it's the fact that you grew up and lost your childish wonder. that's it.

The problem that started to take hold in the 90s and is definitely a problem today is that there are so many choices. Back in the 60s or whatever you had 6 radio stations and 6 tv channels, probably like 60 different choices in either girl or boy toys, so if you wanted media everyone basically watched the same thing and had a collective experience. Now you have 3 billion websites, 700 cable channels, 50 radio channels, no one is watching anything remotely similar, sure there are the few big things that take hold but they die out so fast, because it is on to the new thing, there is no overall collective experience, maybe the 1 million people visiting a website get a small collective like oh man e3 is happening or whatever, but overall nothing will ever be as popular as it was 'back in the day' as long as everything becomes more and more diluted.

Yeah, the only games I had back then was Jungle Book on the SNES, Donkey Kong 1&2 on SNES, and Red.
I got Silver eventually, but wasn't as into it. Kanto seemed lifeless and I sperged out at all the problems so I finished after I beat Red on the mountain. I remember I found a level 7 fearow near Viridian City and I was convinced I'd fucked up the game somehow so I reset it.
Then I spent heaps of time with Sapphire too (probably 200 hours or thereabouts) because I loved the environment and making secret bases.
I've played every pokemon game since but I haven't even been bothered passing Black 2 or X. Makes me feel like a part of me has died.

This lasted for maybe three days. After that I only ever got to use it once again after pleading for a chance to look up some information for a game I was stuck on.
It wasn't until around 2005 I begged for him to let us get cable internet so I could play Runescape at home instead of at the library. It's hard to believe how widespread the internet has come in so little time.

the problem is that everyone tries to copy WoW instead of taking the best features of both WoW and EQ to make another monstrously awesome PVE MMO
