    change the gym to a meteor hideout or his house and voila, no holes in the picture.

    Yeah, but there's the issue of who is occupying the Poison Leader position without Corey. I think the best way would be that he's still the gym leader, just he doesn't battle us in his gym or officially.

    No, Cain was never the Gym Leader in the story. (he was in the original online league, but that didn’t get into the game story). He was Corey’s reserve before he ran away and passed the reserve title to his sister, which she resents. Also, you are only the second person to challenge Aya, after Fern. If Cain was the actual Gym Leader before running away, instead of a presumed future leader, that would affect the perception of the Wasteland. I suppose it wouldn’t be a huge difference, but it still feels rather wrong to me. I think that having Corey be canonically a gym leader, but having an unofficial, non-gym battle with him would be the best way to revise the plot, as @nguyengiangoc and someone on the Discord suggested.

    You're right about wasteland's status. I could see Corey battling the player when ambushed by the cops, saying the same thing about going to the gym (so the police will follow him) and then skipping to the bridge scene

    Thanks! I redownloaded it a few days ago (the Ep. 0 version) and was having that bug. I'd also want to report another bug, albeit (i think) inocuous: each time the game has to show the backsprite of Piranha Carnivine, it shows this error message, mentioning the backsprite name present in the folder:

    Spoiler

    It can then be dismissed and the backsprite gets shown and everything without trouble. So I guess is more annoying than else.

    I really wonder how the Corey and Aya storylines will go, given that Marcello's post says that Corey and Kiki are retconned out of being Gym Leaders. I don't think it'll affect Kiki's story much, but Corey has a Gym and his storyline is that he's a respected community figure. In the timeline where you reveal his collaboration with [redacted], his daughter and the community reacts with surprise. I suppose he could be respected for something else, but I feel that the scene of his [redacted] wouldn't have the same impact if you hadn't spent time with him because of the Gym Battle. I think it would be better if he was still canonically a gym leader, but you just don't battle him before his [redacted]. The most consistent way to adapt the story would be if you go through the Gym puzzle as you do now, and he just tells you to follow him to the bridge instead of battling you, rather than after battling you as it goes now. Solves the issue of not getting a badge for a gym battle that you duly won, without seriously changing Corey's or Aya's stories. If Corey is retconned out of being a Gym Leader at all in the story, then they would have to either rework our introduction to Aya somehow, with her story being that of a new Gym Leader that took over after [redacted]. Aya could be retconned to no longer be a new Gym Leader, which would have knock-on effects on her self-confidence after her first battles with Fern and the player (the devs would have to rework her story regarding this). Otherwise, if Aya is still a brand-new Gym Leader when she is introduced in the redone story, then the devs would have to explain who came before her if not Corey. Couldn't be Cain as he ran away before the beginning of the game.

    Anyone care to respond to this? I would be honored to have Mr. Suggestion Box thrown at me!

    Aya's plot starts being about her relationship with Cain and how she's his replacement. There isn't really a lot of time between Crain's beginning (right when we have ours) and Corey's arc, from which we've got Aya as gym leader. So it's not a stretch that she's still new after taking over her brother's gym.

    I agree with OP that between the timer and the chasers, the puzzles are pretty annoying lol. I don't mind long puzzles to think (like the Carotos one) but having to think and move fast for a long time in a game whose battles are explicitly turn-based strategy gets old fast for me too. I don't mind a Quick-time event but I kinda liked that arc more before.

    I don't use Mac, but from what you're saying I get is symilar to Windows in that you have to merge the folders from the patch with the folders in the main folder from the game. So if you have a scripts file in the main folder and one in the patch, you have to replace the main folder one with the patch one, and the same with all the files and folders from the patch.

    uhhh I remember its Sp. Atk using Sp. Def (which makes sense given it's its best stat) but looks like either the description or the actual item got changed. Either way, according to the wiki, Defense stat boosts do not modify Special Attack, while Special Attack boosts still apply.

    I would compare Taka with someone involved in some sort of cult: is the cult doing bad things? Yes. Is the person whose entire family is in the cult doing, by proxy, those bad things? Yes. But, to what point can you blame them if that cult is the only thing he knows? It's like individually blaming each grunt who wouldn't share the same degree of control that Sirius and Solaris had over Team Meteor's decisions.

    For me the difference is that I do feel sorry for Fern, like one can see how all he does is because some twisted inferiority complex. He started the game like a school jerk and just went down from there. He probably joined Meteor because he already thought he was the bad guy. Like in the final act, when fighting for the Fate of the universe and the likes, Fern will probably be just a speck of dust to sweep before facing the actual challenges. And he knows it.
