Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl- 2 Hours In

Did the first two hours of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl show promise? Or is it somehow a more troubled remake that the GTA Trilogy definitive edition?  Okay it's definitely not that bad, but is it a game worth buying? It? They? Should I refer to them as singular or plural? They're basically the same, right? Wrong? I don't know anymore.
