I never played the originals so this was a brand new experience for me and it was great! The update chibi graphics were funny and cute. The new mining area where you can spend HOURS farming rare items and statues for your base was a blast. I know some people didnt enjoy it as much bc it didnt change a whole lot from the base game but for someone whos never played Diamond and Pearl it was a great entry into that gen. Really no complaints. There was even a legendary section added where you can unlock parts to get certain legendaries that didnt exist in that game which is great for people who like to shiny farm or add to their nat dex if they were missing some.
Really the biggest problem with this game is the lack of effort put in. Sure, they made a brand new overworld, sure they brought back walking with your pokemon, SURE they updated the graphics. But as with most Nintendo brands, Pokemon, at least this game, fell victim to the "free DLC" curse. Released with the main game, some legendaries, and the Battle Tower. Not much to say here, they released multiple legendaries after the game launched. This game was pretty much nothing but nostalgia pandering and filler until they released Pokemon Legends Arceus.
