Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire

Being satisfied with what we are seeing as a lesser amount or lower quality of content, yes that is an accurate case of 'lower expectations'.

I'm just not seeing this whole view of the game being this great gift we have to be thankful for and never criticize as valid, which is clearly contrary to you two.  It is a product that I am critically evaluating.  I'm sorry, but that is how it is and you'll have to deal with it because just ranting about how much we don't appreciate it therefore are complaining is irrelevant to the mindset that generates the complaints in the first place.

@Jon: Hahaha! I agree! A lot of games I play now don't match the difficulty level they used to be, but I reckon my age has something to do with it as well. Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D proves the exact opposite, though... Jesus, Mirror Mode is bloody hard... XD

It's funny 'cause I've never played Ruby/Saphire before, just Emerald. I must say, the lack of both teams in the originals does bother me because I enjoyed taking them both down so much! Then again, they can't just make a single remake of Emerald. They've got the Delta Episode to cover that...

I did like the fact that HG/SS incorporated Crystal elements into its storyline too. That made me very happy. ^^

Pretty much this. I still enjoyed ORAS, but there is room more improvement, and I'm leaving it as that.

I mean sheesh guys it's a fine remake and all, sure, they took out some content that was admittedly very disappointing, and sure, it's easier.  Sure, it's got a few things wrong with it, we all know that.  Let's just sit back and enjoy the amazing 3D, and being able to trade/battle instantly almost anywhere you go!

Oh yeah and Jon, age's got nothing to do with it.  I play Emerald nonstop and it's way slightly harder than these ones

I do have to say that the losing animation of Maxie is the best thing ever and I love how they  ever so slightly gave some more depth to characters with the battle animations.

I decided to see if my unevolved Pokemon (Treecko, Kirlia, Vulpix) around level 60 could do anything against the Elite Four, with only 2 that were EV trained. Yahhhh it wasn't so bad. I forgot to stock up on sodas, but still! It's definitely easier. I didn't go to Pacifidlog yet or visited any islands to leave stuff for post game.

I liked the little dialogue though. The "fire the laser" one in Team Aqua's base was pretty hilarious.

I sincerely hope for the latter.
