Isn't that a pretty common opinion though?
Not outright hate, no. Mediocre, sure. Personally I think GS and RSE were about the same, until HG/SS came out and realized all the potential GS didn't fulfill.
I've seen a lot of people blame RSE for putting them off Pokemon but I think that's more due to people just having grown up by the time it came out? Some of the people who were kids when GS came out would have just started middle/high school when RS came out, for example.
