THIS IS IT. This is safely the first Pokémon game that I do NOT enjoy playing. The level design was unnecessary, the moves were inconsistent, and I was never a huge fan of R/S as opposed to Emerald.

Graphics: I NEVER liked R/S graphics, just because everything was incredibly pointed and unlifelike, so to speak. There was too much sharpness in it, whereas Emerald fixed up the graphics nicely.

I do like the sounds of R/S/E, so that's still high on this list.

Addictiveness: THIS is where the game crashed and burned for me. I found myself frustrated with the level design (too much sparse grass made training for the 5th gym a pain, not helped by the fact that the way the tiling was used made it more difficult to navigate than anything). I found the alternate paths and missions alright, but considering now that I'm stuck in the boundaries of space and time because I screwed up on Lugia, that is nearly inexcusable. For another matter: The starter Pokémon have GREAT movepools which only get better as time goes on. Why don't the others? This was something that could've been EASILY fixed and ruined the game for me.

Story: I was never a fan of R/S's story as compared to Emerald's: Lack of being involved in Aqua's/Magma's conflict wrecks the promise this game had (not that there was much to begin with). For what it is, though, it is decent, so it earns a passing grade in my book.

Depth: This goes equally low with Addictiveness for the same reasons above: I AM GLITCHED IN TIME AND SPACE. I refuse to restart the game, for I will only suffer endless torture for doing so. Really, this game lacks depth, due to the awful level design. I really don't like it.

Difficulty: MY GOD, THE DIFFICULTY. It's practically nonexistent. The Elite 4 has the same team they did in the original game, which was a MASSIVE letdown, further ruining the game for me. (I rebattled some trainers with the Match Call feature, and found one Youngster with a Missingno, then transferring to Lv. 100 Pokémon. That was a shocker.) Again, this game really crashed due to its lack of polish. If the creator decides to continue with this, go ahead. Redeem it. I'll play it.
