Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl

No thread for the gen 4 remakes? That's surprising. Anyway, what do you think of these games?

Now, I didn't play gen 4 back in the DS days, so this is a whole new experience for me. But I've been having a lot of fun with the game so far. And considering I'm about 20 hours into it and already have 6 gym badges, I think I have played enough to form an opinion on the game. I also love the fact that I don't have to teach the actual HM moves to a pokemon in order to use them.

I remember several people online complaining about the chibi artstyle of the game, but I personally think it fits Pokémon very well. No idea how it compares to the originals since I haven't played them.

Cooking poffins is a bit frustrating, but doable. I prefer Pokeblocks.

The only criticism I can make about this game so far... well, Sinnoh isn't that interesting of a region compared to others in the series, imo. The Grand Underground makes it much more interesting.
I just personally prefer Kanto, Johto and Hoenn.

What about you?
