#this makes me wanna replay bw…. take a crack at a rewrite#BUT WHAT HE HAS TO SAY ABT N IS SO GOOD!!!!!!! CONSIDERING THE THEMES!!!#i focused on team plasma being hilariously unnuanced and blatant (yes ik thats the point#but they handle it pretty poorly when it comes to the actual messaging) and he takes it further with N#like its cathartic bc its thoughts ive had for a while abt a game i adore but have issues with#and theyre not like. hostile or anything#yknow how i say that isat and utdr and oneshot are art using games as a medium?#and while you can adapt them to a comic or book- they really work best as video games#bc the gameplay is crucial for telling the story and evoking the emotions of the player?#bw is like. an example of this not working. it wants to be a game with a great story but its unwilling to change the gameplay to assist that#theres some stuff like N’s team changing with the area#but the rivals’s teams dont really reflect their arcs and the game mostly plays like regular pokemon#and the story and gameplay butt heads and make the games feel messy as a result#again. i still absolutely adore bw its still my favorite gen by a longshot and i love them to pieces#this is all coming from a place of love. i can fix her#echoed voice#Youtube
