  1. I can't take Fern seriously at all, he's so ridiculously over the top as an asshole that it loops back around and I can't hate him. Besides, people in-game hate him. What really pushes me off the edge with Kiki and Victoria is that nobody calls them out for the heinous stuff they pull. Cal might as well be the Hero of Reborn City for removing her. I also have no idea what Sigmund's deal is. Is he legit insane and thinks he still has legal authority despite joining up with Team Meteor? Or are the laws of Reborn City just that godawful? Saphira stopped Charlotte and Noel from beating
  2. Taka is easily best boy, he tries his best. Cain is also alright, I love how he thoroughly kills the ridiculous melodrama in every scene he's in. Radomus also lives the absolute dream. How about the opposite? Kiki deserved everything she got, why she refused to help us save the children about to be zapped by an electric madman is beyond comprehension. Because it would 'dishonour' her school to hand over the strength HM to save lives? And Victoria too, for similar reasons. Before the city gets restored she continuously gets in our way to 'test' if we're good enough or some other dum
  3. https://www.youtube.com/embed/9lyKxKn_WsE This went through my mind at the ending sequence. Caz, are you a TES lore fan?
  4. Oh-oh my. Well, I can guarantee to anyone interested that this is going to be nice. Which one? The Hands or Treasure Isles?
  5. One of the ranger quests gives an item that'll help you manage your excess experience, just a tip.
  6. Depending on whether these megas will be given to players or not, Mega Delphox should mean that there should be at least another fake water and grass mega too. Might not be the best option if it's for players. I really want mega fox though
  7. Actually, if you're looking for this sort of feedback, will you be changing anything pre-episode 3? I might give a writeup on what I thought, too.
  8. Yeah, I did all of them. Hope that book does something nice. Exploring treasure isles sounds really nice. Personally, I love the remote islands adventure feel Desolation has, at least so far. Sevii islands was my favourite part of FRLG.
  9. It is, but no much more than say, a starter. It's hard for it to OHKO anything and easily gets OHKO'd in return.
  10. Oh hey, I didn't realise Gastly was available. It's not even that strong, I don't understand why the others seem allergic to having it in their games. Thanks, I love Gastly. I have a few new thoughts. You really should reconsider the credit system, the quests themselves, even in the episode that introduced them, get pretty repetitive and boring. I suggest making fewer, but longer and more detailed sidequests that give up more rewards instead of a few copypasted search for X quests, for example. Looking forward to whatever's coming next. I mean it when I say this is looking really good so fa
  11. Now I'm just hoping Shiv gets a new sprite too. He will, right?
  12. Come on, Slowking isn't even stronger than Slowbro.
  13. Sounds great. Also, a small request: King's Rock by next chapter so I can have Slowking please
  14. Might be an odd question, but do you intend to expand TM/HM compatibility? I really want to add a Yanmega to my team since it fits the climate of the region, but then I won't have a regular flyer.
  15. It's a horribly tedious puzzle, so I'll just post the locations here. Bookshelf, Room with Venam Notebook on desk, Melia's room Fossil case, top left room
  16. Can I just praise you for not dumping whatever seems cool into your work without thinking of how stupid it would look? Because lots of people fall into this trap, I'm glad you don't seem to be doing that.
  17. Just got to the end of the current content. The tone so far strikes a pretty good balance. What helps a lot right now is that unlike the other Reborn-likes popping up, you're exploring a tropical island instead of being shoved into yet another laggy dry city. So you have a pretty good adventure vibe that I liked the most, like I said before. While it's too early to say if I like the characters so far, I'm interested in them, so that's already pretty good. I don't want to punch anyone's face in yet (looking at you, Venam/Nim/Saki/Amber) which is a plus. The locations and settings bring everyt
  18. Thanks a lot, though I don't think I'll continue anytime soon. I didn't intend to spend a lot of time detailing how throwaway members of the team would be caught. I tried sticking to situations that would contribute the most to showing his personality. By glide, I mean like how snakes do on the ground, pretty sure Snivy can do it.
  19. You get too choose another starter after you're done with the jungle, so it doesn't matter very much. I like it this way, having both.
  20. Alright, so I've gotten to the end of current content. I like a lot of the tone you've set so far. More about adventuring and exploring instead of the current trend of... Reborn-likes throwing you into a shitty city and not letting you leave for a long time. A gameplay suggestion, the scientist in Redcliff asked me for a Bibarel right after I dumped mine for the Budew. Either make it more prominent that he's looking for a Bibarel earlier, maybe have a NPC in town mention it, or just make him ask for a different Pokemon. Very tedious grinding another Bidoof just because. While I was mucking ab
  21. Glad you appreciated it, You should check out MrBTongue's videos on youtube, he has a lot of good things to say about storytelling and worldbuilding in video games. In fact I highly recommend everyone trying to make a game here watch them. These two are particularly important since they concern suspension of disbelief and creating a consistent world.
  22. Thought I'd give some feedback, since you're looking for it.. I like the premise, I've always wanted a region full of islands. A starter quiz is also usually fun. For anyone interested: So far I'm only around the jungle, but one thing that really stood out was how padded out your writing is. To give you an example Connor: This tree is blocking our path, let's go check it out shall we? Read it out loud. It doesn't flow well, would someone who natively speak English say that? It would look better if maybe you did Connor: This tree is blocking our path. Connor: Let's go check it out, shall
