I could not agree with you more about Pokemon OP, valid points across the board.

For me, it's gotta be Zelda. Every main entry since/including GameCube has been utter shit. It's not nostalgia, the older games were just vastly better. Compare Majora's Mask to watered down babyshit like Twilight Princess or Skyward Sword, it's fucking sad how hard they dropped the ball. The latest game isn't any better. Deep as a puddle and as wide as the ocean. Shitty story, shitty dungeons, no fucking soul.

Speaking of Open World and Dark Souls, something I've been wanting to comment on for a while

Dear Dark Souls faggots:

No, the level design is not good because all the hallways connect to each other. This isn't even new or unique. MOST games do this by default. They make a map, everything connects in a sensible way. The only game I've EVER known to not do this is Dark Souls 2, and I don't even know how they fucked up that badly.

Love,
Someone who pays attention.

>>384589917
a game with actual level design is mindblowing to braindead nugamers who have only played open world and procedeurally generated garbage that has no real level design.

Yeah, fuck people that enjoy things
Us 90s kids, amirite?

>>384589917
This isn't true at all, and you're literally making shit up. People don't praise Dark Souls' level design because it's just connected, but it's connected in a believable way with shortcuts that aren't blindingly obvious. Most games do NOT have such well designed worlds.

>>384590381
>How to spot the butthurt millennial 101.

>>384590464
>People don't praise Dark Souls' level design because it's just connected

>but it's connected in a believable way with shortcuts that aren't blindingly obvious.
Literally how is that different from having a connected map, exactly?

All of the arguments in the picture look like they're from some assblasted retard with rose-tinted glasses
>dude cucks degeneracy and SJW LMAO
You cherry-picked a bunch of shit for each side. For example, there are plenty of retarded looking Pokemon from each generation. Have you forgotten that Poliwrath is just an angry Poliwhirl? Or that Muk is just a big Grimer with a wider face? There are also well-designed ones from each generation, too.

>>384590535
because most other "open world" games with connected maps just have a big plot of land with a bunch of shit on top of it, not a bunch of levels designed individually and then still connected in a way that makes sense and lends itself well to gameplay

Why don't you go ahead and name me a couple of other games that have a similarly well-designed world then? Because I can't think of any, so I'd like to try them if they do exist.

>>384585884
People call it dark souls like. So it was funny.

>jerking yourself off about how buttmad you are about games
>call others buttmad

>>384591468
Final Fantasy 12 I haven't played so I'll give you benefit of the doubt. Brandish and Wizardry do have well designed worlds, but it is objectively much easier to make interconnected levels in two dimensions than three. Kingdom hearts is nowhere near as well designed. Not a single Mario game has an open world like Dark Souls does, you're out of your mind. And every Zelda game is exactly the "big plot of land with stuff on top of it" i was talking about. Even the dungeons are basically just a series of rooms connected in a straight line. I'm going to assume maybe you just didn't understand the task at hand when i said "similarly well-designed world", because almost none of the games you mentioned have similar worlds.

>>384591468
Protip: presenting a weak argument and then saying "inb4 moving goalposts" for when the person inevitably rebuts your weak argument doesn't make your examples valid

>>384591751
Zelda actually does meet your criteria, but you're dismissing it for "reasons" that aren't actually true, and completely ignoring dungeon design with in the games and only speaking of overworld.

>>384591863
Explain why they aren't valid or are weak? The other person I'm talking to didn't really do a good job other than "That's totally not what I'm talking about dude". They fit the criteria of having connected halls that aren't unrealistic and even include shortcuts. In fact, Skyward Sword in specific does this incredibly well.

>>384591751
>Even the dungeons are basically just a series of rooms connected in a straight line

None. I had good taste. Also just because I had a game didn't mean I thought it was good. Played through many bad games because it was all I had.

This I'll agree with, btu I saw this coming when A Link Between Worlds came out

>>384592202
It's true. Every 3D zelda game's dungeon is just a bunch of rooms connected in incredibly plain ways, straight forward or back.
