Why did they put so many teasers in ORAS?

Seriously, why the fuck are there so many teasers and trolling in ORAS?

>there is no Battle Frontier, but there is a sign saying "the Battle Frontier Project has started!"

>there is an NPC next to the sign saying "the Battle Resort is STILL popular, but there are plans to make it a MORE SPECIAL facility called the Battle Frontier"

>the Game Corner is not present in ORAS, however, the Game Corner building is in the game, and is locked.

> there is no Match Call app to make and recieve calls in ORAS, but in the Delta Episode, Steven mentions that the app is currently in development.

> There is no riding Pokemon like in XY, but on the top floor of Mauville City there is a Rhyhorn model with a sign saying "the Ryhorn Rider is out of service" (meaning that if it was in service, you could ride it"

>there is no Berry Blending minigame in ORAS, but the Berry Blenders are still found in each Contest Hall, with NPCs telling you how in the past they had to use these old machines to make pokeblocks

Seriously, I really want to like ORAS. And I really try to, because the game has tons of great stuff. But why all the teasers? I would be willing to forgive and ignore all those absences, if the game itself didn´t outright remind me about them IN-GAME!!!

Like, seriously, does an NPC has to remind me that the Battle Frontier will be better than the Battle Resort? As if it wasn´t obvious enough to all of us? Why put more salt in the wound, for fucks sake?

I think all those absences could have been excusable (because the game does have a lot of new cool content) if said absences weren´t sadistically pointed out to us ingame.

Are the developers really that incompetent? Do they do it on purpose?

It's just references to the older games

They shouldn´t care to actually REMIND PLAYERS about content they chose to REMOVE, right?

It is just extra time they spent to add those references that serve for nothing, except for reminding players what should have been included in the game, but wasn´t, making players unnecessarily pissed off.

It just makes me sad...

It's an Easter egg for old players, nothing more.

>unnecessarily pissed off
No, like the other Anon said it's just your autism.
>>
>>32587736
Easter eggs are references to other regions.

An NOC telling you that the facility that was expected to be in ORAS (the Battle Frontier) is better and more special than the one they included instead of it (the Battle Resort) is not a reference. It is making fun of your own fans.

Having a closed Game Corner building is not a reference, it is making fun of the people that actually expected to see that Game Corner in the remake of a game that HAD IT.

An NOC telling you that Mauville City was reconstructed in the fashion of Lumiose City, now that is a reference. (a reference to Lumiose City in Kalos).

They're fun callbacks for those of us old enough to have played the originals.

Friendly reminder that ORAS are the best games in the franchise.
>>
It really depends of whether you see these references as simple easter eggs, or as trolling.

Personally, I find them unnecessary. If you don't went to include certain features in a remake, try not reminding your players about them ingame.
>>
>>32589708
>They're fun callbacks for those of us old enough to have played the originals
What's so fun about the developers putting ingame rem8nders of stuff from.the originals that didn't make it in the remake_

Wouldn't said fans that played the originals prefer.to have those missing features instead of empty references...?

>Friendly reminder that ORAS are the best games in the franchise.
I would agree, if the game didn't remind me of its flaws on purpose.
>>
>>32589708
>fun
what would be fun, is if we got the chance to play them. Imagine if they made some minigame for the Gamecorner, if they had a Battle Facility other than the Maison, if berry blending was somethin beyond a button because you can simply just max out all of your stats, and so on. That would be cool.
>>
>>32590406
>Wouldn't said fans that played the originals prefer.to have those missing features instead of empty references...?
If said fans want to play the original features they can play the originals. The remakes are for others who are too young or otherwise missed the original games to play the region without wanting to kill themselves due to all the missing features. That applies to every single remake.
>>
>>32590448
>Remakes are for people who didn't play the originals.
Debatable. FR/LG and HG/SS had both old and new Pokemon players in mind (Specifically HG/SS's GB sounds - which absolutely was not meant for first time johto players), because it's not just for younger kids to play - it's for the people who have played it to refresh on the region with new enhancements. If they didn't have older players in mind, then remaking a game isn't even necessary because who would care?

The game corner issue is more on UK laws part than game freak. Voltorb flip was nice but likely last minute. From then on its just simply easier to not have it in any gen 5 and beyond games and remakes.

Do not expect game corners in any future remakes ever.
>>
>>32590650
Strange thing is that I don't think the game corner is in the Japanese releases either. Could be wrong though.
>>
>>32590650
The thing I am criticizing is not the absence of the Game Corner in ORAS, but the presence of a locked GameCorner that unnecessarly reminds people of said removal.

My point is that if a remake removes certain features, said remake shouldn´t point those removals out on purpose.
>>
>>32590448
This... is actually not a bad argument. I still think all the reminders of missing content in ORAS are completely unnecessary, but at least they partially make some sense this way.
>>
>>32587601
You didn't even include my favorite.

>GF knows that fans want a Mega Flygon and they even worked on it but apparently couldn't come up with anything decent (confirmed in an interview)
>ORAS finally released
>Include a new major NPC (Aarune) whose ace Pokemon is Flygon
>Finally reach Platinum Rank in your secret base
>Aarune gives you a Mega Stone
>It's for Garchomp, the one Pokemon that cucks Flygon the most
>Aarune actually says "And I'll give you this fella, too! It doesn't do a thing for me and my loyal Flygon here..." as if he knew he and his bro got cucked hard

It was like a spit in the face for all Flygon fans out there. Thankfully I don't care that much about Flygon myself but I find that scene absolutely hilarious, as if GF did it on purpose while being fully aware of how Flygon is the underdog when compared to Garchomp so they decided to shit on it even more.
>>
>>32592738
>Aarune actually says "And I'll give you this fella, too! It doesn't do a thing for me and my loyal Flygon here..." as if he knew he and his bro got cucked hard
Wow, I didn´t even know he said this phrase (I haven´t reached Platinum rank myself). Yeah, that is kinda annoying too, but I wouldn´t say it counts as a trolling like the above things listed in OP.
>>
>>32587653
It´s not about OCD. It´s about how ORAS is full of signs saying "this was cancelled" or "still in development" or "closed", leaving a sour taste in the mouth of the players. It makes ORAS feel "unfinished" as a game.

That would have been great. Now I am even more mad at GameFreak.

Wait, is it what happened with HGSS and Voltorb Flip? I am quite curious. And I am not very familiar with Pokemon side games.

And if they did it for HG/SS, then why not for OR/AS?

Well, they did use Soaring on the back of Latios/Latias in OR/AS.

It was first used in one of the Pokemon Ranger games, which are not developed by Game Freak.
>>
>>32593361
Considering the Fly overworld animation in Gen 3, I would say the devs of Ranger would have no leg to stand on in any claim for soaring on the Lati
>>
>>32593316
Japan got the slots but then South Korean laws and increasing pressure with PAL ratings boards made it so their releases couldn't have it, with TPCi now in charge of localization after HGSS already hit Japan they didn't let any of the international releases be different from each other unlike the various Nintendo branches letting each area tackle their own problems, so they had to gut them for everyone, Game Freak had to replace it with something else for HGSS because there were already things tied to the Game Corner but everything afterwards is designed to not have a Game Corner period because TPCi won't let different regions have their own deals and Game Freak is stubborn about their slots

Fuck Germany and fuck GF. You're not telling me they couldn't put in some basic puzzle games or fake games based off of pokemon? Just always give a payout, that varies depending on your score. It's not gambling if you win at least something every time, even if it's just an Oran Berry
>>
>>32592738
They basically came out and said "we dont know how to design it so we just wont make it"

Nevermind the fact that it's the only gen 3 dragon without a mega, this is the same company that thought the genies were okay, and that M-Sharpedo was good enough a design.

>>32594060
I don´t think it is.

Emerald had a BF. If they didn´t want to add a BF in ORAS, the least they could do is not mention it in-game, I think.

Masuda publically says in an interview how they didn´t put a BF in ORAS because they believe it is something modern-day fans won´t appreciate, but yet they took the time to make a BF reference in the ORAS Battle Resort, and an NPC that says the BF will be more special and robust than the Resort.

You can´t honestly believe this makes sense.

Same with the Game Corner. It wasn´t enough that they couldn´t find a way to add it in ORAS, but they also had to remind us about its absence in- game?
>>
>>32594042
>all they had to do is make it so you win a prize regardless of the results.
If this is all they had to do, I suppose GameFreak are just stupid, then.

I canñt even think of a valid reason for not putting it in ORAS.
>>
>>32594154
That or just make the games free. Either way, it's not gambling. The slots in general barely qualified as gambling because of how high the odds are
>>
>>32594159
Then I don´t know why ORAS doesn´t have a Game Corner, if the solution was so easy.

And more importantly, why bother to add a fucking CLOSED Game Corner building in ORAS, instead of just pretending Mauville City never had a Game Corner in MegaHoenn?

Same. At least I can maybe believe they just think they are obsolete features if they just remove them, but teasing those things like they are nice features, but being too lazy to implement them... what is that supposed to communicate to the player? "Maybe we will try harder next remake!"?

Then why make references to games that they've never played?
And if that were the case why would the director at the Celadon Condominiums in HGSS talk about how they were explicitly trying to create something that brought back fond memories for the older fans while also being something more than just the original game?

ORAS didn't have any special Game Freak speech but I imagine it would've gone something like
>Fuck it we don't give a shit, you already bought the game, joke's on you.
I hope they never remake Sinnoh, because it would certainly adopt the ORAS mindset instead of the HGSS mindset.

Why? Wouldn't it be better if the best parts of games were included in all future games? I mean it might make the older games "obsolete" but isn't that actually a good game, if each new game is objectively better than the last?
>>
>>32594461
This so much.

The guy mext to.the Battle Frontier project conveys the feeling that we are missing out in a better Battle Facility (explicitly telling us it will be more special and robust than the Resort) .

The Game Corner owner is super sad about his business being closed, and explicitly says "people used to come and play games at my place like crazy. Sigh... times change. "
He explicitly talks about how they played games like crazy. Rsminding us that we won't be able to to that.

That actually sounds like itd be really neat way to get berries or some money in games where the only sources of money after awhile are the elite 4 and the 2 or 3 daily/weekly/monthly fights.

Hell several of the cities like Nimbasa already look Vegas-y to an extent. Just put in the pinball game or some sort of puzzle game there. They could of even brought back the berry blender and poffin cooking from gen 3 and 4 only instead they just give you stuff like Berry Juice and the regional status heal food.

To be fair the people who made Prism also supremely fucked up by advertising the hell out of their game before releasing it. They made a trailer on Youtube with more than a million views, Kotaku wrote articles about it (though that may have happened anyway), and beta tested the game on TPP.
Still feels bad that we never got the full, polished, complete version though. They were apparently planning a full Frontier and everything, but we only have the Tower and Arcade in the leaked version.

not a first. OP loves its daily baits, lies obvious misinfo non-stop but when people asked "tits" she always triggered (I think that's how trolls found it was a "she" when it started years ago).
