Rayquaza is dope but aside from that Hoenn is really boring. I just never really like the areas and story beats but its fun when you turn your brain off.
I have nothing interesting to say for this game. I found it fun during a first playthrough many years ago. But I've played so many cool and fun games from then on and I have no idea how I ever found this remotely fun. The curse of being a child, I guess
It's not bad but after replaying it a bunch I did feel like it was missing something, not sure what exactly. The story is really solid and the ost is just awesome. But the platforming always felt like an afterthought weird enough.
Gameplay better than the first but the story wasn't that great. The multiple villains did more harm than good for the story, especially since may of them were just boring. Claude is a big weirdo, hearing his thoughts about Rena always bothered the hell out of me.
It had amazing animations and fun combat initiatives. Just wish it wasn't as long as it was and didn't have awful dialogue (at certain points) and fanservice.
I really don't know how to feel about this game. The dialogue is so bad, the villains suck so much, the battle system is so lame, and the enemies on the map are a pain. The ost is great though but everything else is not.
