I also had this game at number 1 for the longest time but after critically reviewing it myself I dropped it to number 3 behind Platinum and B2/W2

[@JacobCruise]

@@CeoOfBettt yeahhh

[@CeoOfBettt]

@@JacobCruise everything you said is absolutely true, the atmosphere is incredible and the love and care that was put into HGSS really shows but the leveling is so bad that it sucks cause that’s really my only flaw in this game

[@nicholasnagassar1205]

I've been there since gen 1 Played every game Heart Gold / Soul Silver is definitely my number 1

[@Mew_York_Kitty]

Ayy I'm here for more nostalgia, thanks my brother - awesome to see more old Pokémon games being talked about. 🥳

[@DietCokeAE86]

I never understand why people have trouble with Whitney she easy asf

[@spyrospanag9091]

Yes it was peak, next question..

[@randomedgygamer2191]

It’s a very good game but it’s so high up there mostly due to nostalgia

[@seldomsane5278]

The low level wild pokemon can be a problem when grinding, although still my favorite.

[@geobro9919]

I think heartgold soulsilver is one of my fav pokemon games. Great video btw

[@lugus9261]

9:30 there's loads of new stuff in the aftergame, such as getting the gen 3 legendary pokemon

[@GramKraken]

Great video! I picked up my half finished COVID era save file again. I’ve also been wearing my Pokéwalker everyday recently after I fixed it up with new batteries

[@JacobCruise]

@@GramKraken thanks !

[@AceRonan]

Top 5 game in the franchise fs but I got platinum emerald b2w2 and legends arceus over it

[@robertlupa8273]

6:29 Doesn't Elm call you after you beat the Gym? Or am I confusing this with a call after the 8th badge? 'Cause in the latter's case he gives you a Master Ball.

[@JacobCruise]

U get the master ball from elm yeah. I think I just forgot to say that since it wasn’t that important to me

[@samnelson3852]

Good video bro

After playing most of the pkm games hgss is for me number 1 but im starting soon with bw so it might change

[@oL9fifa]

Im playing it right now and i dont really like it. Im on like the 5th gym and it feels like leveling is really slow and its a lot less guided than other games like black and platinum. No idea why i dont rly enjoy it. I also spent a lot of time leveling my croconaw now hes much higher than the others and sweeps everything, also other pokemon dont seem that good and feel weak.

[@lugus9261]

Yes, next question

[@DBasedAlex]

Lemme guess - it’s not (I know it’s not as good as anyone remembers)

[@guilhermecunha2969]

@@JacobCruise pls tell me this game is easier than black 2 I just finished it yesterday and holy sht Dark souls was easier than this game At the end game I was either 1 SHOOTING my enemies or getting one shooted

[@JacobCruise]

@@guilhermecunha2969 it’s lowkey hard but only if you don’t grind. HeartGold has terrible leveling

[@EbubechukwuChukwuma-oy7cr]

I think hgss is a good game 😊

[@JacobCruise]

@@EbubechukwuChukwuma-oy7cr it is!

[@goodraking730]

I’ve thought it has been overrated forever. Johto is a bad region, the level curve is brutal

[@ummidk757]

It’s my least favorite pokemon game of all time I hate johto in general so it’s not entirely the games fault
