Fun in a nostalgic sense but a terrible remake. I don't know much about game design but I heard modders describe the game as copying and pasting the original code into a 3D engine or something. I'm not sure that's how it works but the final product feels exactly like that. ILCA didn't even try. Legends: Arceus is the true gen 4 remake. With that being said, it felt like this game only existed to reacquaint players with Sinnoh lore, which is vital for Legends: Arceus.

I don't think they made a whole ass remake just for lore, I think they just wanted to please all fans of the series with one extremely faithful remake, so much so that it might just be considered a 3D port, and one which is so different that it completely reinvents the series formula.
