      it's not nostalgia, it's just a preference for actual encounter design rather than "press A to win until the gym requires you to catch a water type" and a story which isn't an excuse which the developers themselves don't give a single frick about

        Dude come on the story is just “dark Pokemon” which every fricking game at that time was doing with a nonsensical surprise villain and the gameplay is only hard if you are unfamiliar with Pokemon just like mainline games. But unlike mainline games it doesn’t benefit from the fun of building your own team and map design is basically tiny areas crammed with shitmon trainers

        Coliseum sucks so fricking hard. The battles are so painfully slow, slowest animations in any fricking rpg ever made, horribly ugly graphics, and the story is ass like all pokemon games.

        Coliseum might be worse than the modern games.

              All the Pokemon game are pretty linear. Colosseum was very linear, yes. That doesn't necessarily mean it was worse off for it. The game was more story driven than past entries. I'm not saying it was better than the classics, but compared to today's games? I'd rather replay Colosseum than anything on the 3DS or Switch.

                The reasons to have a linear a game are 1. story or 2. difficulty. Colosseum has neither. The story is as dogshit as any non-gen 7 game and the difficulty is the same "click A with the same pokemon the entire game to win" garbage

                that's true, more shadow moves too. they're forgettable but at least have more flavor than 'kill myself rush'.

                Both games have something good going over the other, neither are perfect, but I'd still rather play through Colosseum.

            So it's the Sonic Mania of Pokemon? Ironic, since Mania took fans to make a good game, while Seniority wasn't fans to make a good Pokemon game, or maybe it's because they are fans of RPGs in general.

                There are no random wild encounters. Every trainer you beat is a trainer you never have to fight again, and there aren't a ridiculous amount of trainers. The long animations and unintelligent and inefficient turn execution(that still plagues the series to this day) just make it feel that way
                >wouldn't be anywhere near as annoying if the battles weren't so numerous, which is a fault of the game at large.
                It's bad that there's battling? I don't get your point. I might be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure there are less fodder fights than there are in the newer games.

                Honestly, pokemon is several decades late on putting in an intelligent turn execution system. Status effects should apply and make themselves known as the pokemon is hit and their HP bar is going down, same with everything else that needs to be told to the player.
                And frick everything that's done one-at-a-time, that shit should be grouped up. There's a sandstorm? Hit all vulnerable pokemon at the same time, don't tell me
                >a got buffeted by the sandstorm!
                >b got buffeted by the sandstorm!

                Pokemon and horsefrickery are two different things.
                Grown men can have grown up on pokemon, but only the gaygiest of men grew up on my little fricking pony.
                Pokemon has beautiful women like Jesse and Sabrina, my little pony has nothing but sparklegay horses.
                Pokemon is a JRPG with a hyper autistic competitive scene, my little pony is nothing but a cartoon and merch line.
                Pokemon is at its heart a shounen adventure, which appeals to a more masculine nature, while my little pony is nothing but a troony circlejerk about feelings and gender identities.

                It's certainly childish to be a grown man and make pokemon the core of your identity, but simply liking pokemon while being a grown man is nowhere near the same as liking a glorified trans groomer cartoon

            turning off animations doesn't fix the problems in the webm. There's a fundamental problem with how gamefreak executes turns: they all revolve around a constant barrage of notifications that have to be mashed through.
            Even if turning off animations actually turned them all off, you'd still have to sit through constant pauses as Gamefreak's shit engine tries to process a burn and tells you steelix took damage from the burn.

                The animations in colosseum weren't poor. It's not the animation's fault, it's the game's horrible turn execution that's flawed.
                The fact there's still a problem even in spite of animations being turned off shows Gamefreak is doing something horribly wrong. There are easy middle grounds to keep both appearance(soul) and function intact that Gamefreak is too incompetent or unwilling to reach.

                No worse than gamefreak.

                You can't even turn animations off in colosseum and it sucks ass. Autists complain about the animations not being good enough in 3D pokemon games, but tbh the actual problem is just not being able to turn them off. Its at its worst in the gamecube games when it's double battles only and you need to sit through four animations a turn.

                Bad animations and not being able to skip animations are two different problems.
                If the animations suck then that's a problem of quality.
                If you're autistic enough to only play pokemon for its raw gameplay, then yes you'd want to turn off animations to speed through your easy child's game.

                But there's a third problem you're overlooking: the fundamental battle engine being slow as shit, even in absence of animations. It takes longer to get through everything than it should, both performance wise and communication wise to the player.

      For what is worth, it doesn't feel as lazy as some GF games, in fact, it doesn't feel lazy at all. But sometimes a good effort doesn't translate to a good product.

      i mean, shit, its not even that good when compared to RPGs up and down the river, but the mere fact it respects your ability to do basic thinking as a human being and asks you to at least strategize a little bit puts it far above a lot of other pokemon games
      one of the main examples that comes to mind is the lab portion where each encounter has some variant on rain dance+thunder teams, and predicts some of the more common counters to the strat and asks you to overcome it

      Was pokemon X D better

      i personally disliked XD more than Colo because they threw so many basic b***h encounters at you, threw so many shadow mons at you, it became tiresome really quick
      it felt as if they saw colosseum keeps you slightly underleveled for most of the game, and became absolutely fricking terrified of not having the player be overleveled and thus just spammed weenie battles at you
      the first hour or two alone was just a slog of spamming A over and over and over, they somehow made the lab, a cool thing in the last game, one of the worst experiences

      no, its only positive point is the purification chamber. adding more shadow pokemon ruined it more than anything. the game is fine until the shadow pokemon factory where they start spamming them and the game grinds into a tedious slog.

    The composer is still thinking about the game in somewhat recent time at first (4 years ago uploaded this). Don't think we'll ever get a remaster sadly, but it's a pretty good game.
    Pokemon is pretty simplistic for an RPG, but doubles really is the patrician format. A lot of the trainers in the game had some semblance of a strategy, even if it's kinda basic for competitive Pokemon.

    On a side note, The Under's theme FRICKS

    My favorite part of Colosseum was walking down empty hallways while being bombarded by Trainers with literally nothing but shitmons, leaving you underleveled for the final battle unless you grinded on Mt. Battle which was slow.

    Colosseum was fricking garbage and I'm tired of you Black folk thinking it's somehow the best thing to happen to the series.
    The game is absolutely short as frick and that's not even before you take out the endless padding.
    The absolute entirety of the game is
    >talk to npc
    >tells you to talk to other npc
    >walk down long hallway 'dungeon'
    >bombarded every two seconds with trainer battles
    >they literally all have nothing but shitmons that are easy to defeat and yield extremely low EXP
    >do this a few times
    >get to the end
    >suddenly the final boss has a decent team at a decent level
    >either luck out or grind

    The fact that the game starts your Pokemon out at level 25/26 and gives you a fricking legendary at the start too shows how poorly planned out and balanced it is.

    Colosseum had the potential to be thee GOAT pokemon title but was held back by Gamefreak and Nintendo in general.
    A more standard RPG pokemon catering to older audiences is exactly what the series needed. No homosexual ass 10 year old kid fighting gym trainers and catching wild pokemon 11 games in a row.
    Colosseum just didn't have to budget to be amazing. XD was plain dogshit as a followup. I thought with the Switch Nintendo might try another Colosseum-like game now they're not limited to shitty handheld hardware but nope, Gamefreak is okay to spam the same and tired shit over and over because the majority of Nintendo fans are soulless bugs.

    Colo was a bit janky with how tedious shadow purification was, but it was just nice to have something DIFFERENT to mix up the pokemon formula. I appreciate the fact that the entire game was double battles, making it something you actually needed to build strategies/movesets around. Rather than doubles being a rare occasion like in the mainline games, where there's no point bothering with doubles strategies. I also liked how the game was actually relatively difficult for a pokemon game. And the music was kino.

    >Is sorta cheaply made, all Kanto and Johto mons use the stadium models and they clash a lot with the newer ones
    >3D models for humans are lifeless and souless, you rarely see them zoomed in for this reason
    >Not that many interesting locations, very few of them too
    >World design is interesting but they don't really do a lot with it, can't even ride the badass bike you have
    >Does not have minigames and other cool distractions like STADIUM 1 and 2, menus are also very stale in comparison
    >If you finish the game you can trade with GBA, cool, but since there are no wild pokémon, you can't really give away trash for something good to transfer them between games, the only way to raise your pokémon count is to import a Nincada and evolve it, had like 25 shedinjas because of this.

    That being said, it had a very good OST and probably one of the most kino fights in the series:

        The closest to this I can think of is a mainline composer who'd been composing for multiple mainline games. He referenced a pokemon mystery dungeon song in one of his latest compositions, and mysteriously was demoted to gruntwork afterwards and hasn't composed a song since.

        But our marketing team told upper management that gimmicks boost sales, regardless of how cheaply they're implemented. They also said that if we introduce a new gimmick every gen, we won't have to work harder on making the game actually good because the consumers will be too busy ogling the new gimmick to notice how crusty our game is!

      Sticking with good ones you got in the first half is generally better, considering EVs, getting ahead of the level curve, and the effort needed to purify new ones. But there are a handful in the late-game that are fully evolved and come high level enough to consider.
