Not really. Puroboros were really hard to capture with the RNG bug, but every other stupidly hard to find creature(Tonberry, Master Tonberry, Valaha, Ghost, Wraith, etc) actually ended up with a really good RNG, so the total time of capture was way less than it ever was before. I platinumed the game on PS4 and it took me far less time to do full captures than in any other run I've ever had because of the RNG bug.



People expecting it to be easier now are in for a shock, unless Puroboros was the only thing they had left.



Mostly the RNG bug made it so you couldn't save scum equipment easily. If you reset and reloaded you'd get the exact same drop. The reality of it was that most people who just played the game would never notice a problem, yet a lot of people were scared off by the description of the bug more than what the bug actually meant (and there was a lot of misinformation to boot).
