After thinking about it, and opinions may vary, but ORAS itself isn't much of a problem, it's the region it's based on.
It's a huge fucking slog, it looks awful, and I can just feel the disgusting humidity in every part of it. It's an overall unpleasant region for me. That's why it sucks so much to play through.
The only good thing Emerald really has is the Battle Frontier, and it wasn't included in ORAS.
A valid complaint?
Definitely. But DexNav itself is a god-tier feature.
It basically "fixes" how dead regions can feel.
Sure, Gen 5 and XY came up with shaking grass, but Pokémon popping out, hearing a Pokémon's cry when speeding through a route, sneaking up on that Pokémon, it makes these otherwise boring ass routes feel ALIVE.
Having the bottom-screen show the Pokémon you've gotten, and silhouettes of ones you haven't is great for aspiring completionists as well. That part might be spoiled for people with a living dex though, which is why I'm hoping SM will have a significantly amount of new Pokémon, AND have this feature, it's literally the best shit since Day/Night in making the regions feel like actual places.
You can also see certain stats, held items, abilities and gender of a Pokémon you're sneaking up on, and they even have a good chance of having their hidden ability.
It also increases the shiny rate by a very good amount from my experience.
It does so many good things and very well, it makes ORAS worth buying for DexNav alone.
As much as I enjoyed BF, I find DexNav to be far superior as a feature, not that I wouldn't love both in the same game, but we all know GF is shit.
So why the fuck do people still shit on ORAS and wank RSE? People even have the gall to say RS are somehow better.
