    What do I gain from the game being linear?

      You play the game the way you're supposed to.

        But I can do that more with open world.

        enjoyment if you have to be told that you don't play or enjoy games

        >enjoyment
        Then why do I enjoy it less?

        The question you're supposed to ask is what do you gain from the game being nonlinear, because linear is the default in Pokemon.

            Do you even play Pokemon, moron? Badges have never precluded you from CATCHING Pokemon, save for story-mandated linear progression checkpoints.
            If I want to go to Glaseado Mountain and catch a Frigibax as soon as possible, I can.

          Yeah, you’re overleveled now. Stop talking.

            pokemon will always be piss baby shit, the only way to make it "difficult" is to put autistic limitations on yourself

            Oh no! I'm overleveled? In a Pokemon game? This is somehow open world's fault!

            Tighter game design for the most part. In an open world game the developers can’t account for all the tools/resources you could have at any given moment, since you could’ve gone anywhere.

              I’m not talking about a specific pokemon game, I’m just outlining the biggest weakness when it comes to open world game design.
              For example, in BoTW the player could complete shrines in whichever order they wanted to, so there’s no real escalation in complexity or difficulty for 99% of the games’ shrines. The vast majority of them take like 2 minutes to complete. In a more linear game there would be a more natural difficulty curve.

              Funny, since anti-togglegays like you (who actively want to be overleveled) want EXP Share forced onto everyone with zero choice to opt out, because they want to experience the game exactly how Gamefreak intended them to. A.K.A. The exact OPPOSITE of what an open-world does.

      a game with actual design that doesn't have the impression of being just one big randomly generated terrain with copy-pasted "points of interest" peppered meaninglessly across it

    Non linear, open world is the future of the series.
    There's things that should be improved on, like scaling trainers in accordance to your number of badges, but it's a step in the right direction.

    I love how open worlds filters npcs. They just can't wrap their heads around being able to go anywhere, they need to be given directilns, have clear objectives, like cattle.
    Open world truly is the savant's choice. Midwits love corridors because it's basically a movie where you have no actual input to give. It's embarassing.

    Sasuga. Can’t wait to see how pokegays justify their brand slavery in Gen 10. Those games are going to be a hilarious mess.
