I prefer the classic style where you actually enter battle and it's separate from the overworld. That's what makes it feel like Pokemon.
You can prefer whatever you want but you said the new way is less immersive. That's nonsense. Seemlessly entering battle on the overworld is a lot more immersive than warping to the battle dimension in the turned based games. If pokemon were a real thing, it would look much more like PLA than the main games.
I'm also not sure why it matters if they get rid of the nostalgia. You still have like 8 generations of pokemon games to play if you want nostalgia.
I'm further in now (8/10 stars, main team in mid 60s, still haven't started the story in region 2) and the game is a lot of fun. I didn't realize just how important backstriking to initiate battle was but it lets you snipe just 1 pokemon in a distortion instead of having to fight 3-4 at a time. It also helps even the odds against alphas so you don't just automatically have your first pokemon wiped. I went back to the first area to do something real quick and 6 hours later I'm still there, just sidetracked by one thing after another cause theres always something to do and always something new you didn't find before. I also think I've caught more pokemon total than in all the previous games combined. It's a good game.
