Out of curiosity, is Chapter 15 no longer considered the end of Act 2?

 

Ch15 isn't the end of Act 2, no! It would've been included on the title card of the chapter otherwise if it was.

Though back on the question of needing a new save, on a scale of 1-10 how recommended is doing a new playthrough required? Like maybe V15 will break your save or the very next large update with V14 whenever that comes around will break it? Cause if its highly likely that the next big one will damage things beyond recovery then that's a different story.

 

I'd say an 8 or 9, because honestly I've seen so many people run into problems that were caused by variable issues on old saves even after conversion that it's kind of unmanageable to fix all of them without breaking something else. A lot of the problems are user-end issues too, so sometimes we just straight up can't do anything about it at all—It really is very much recommended to do a new run if you don't want to run into problems in the future.

We don't know how much it's going to affect saves on future versions because it's not even completely sure what places will be affected by V14 and beyond, nor do we know all the cases of variables causing problems yet. It's entirely possible that some will just fly by us entirely until it's too late lmao

Can anyone tell me where to get a Linux version of the manual files? I started playing this on Linux but I can't use the Linux auto update files because they don't work

 

The link has been updated on the download page, please download that version instead!

With the big update, will we have to restart our playthroughs?

 

Not necessarily! You can choose to convert your old savefile to be compatible with the new update (for which an explanation will be provided upon the update's release), but it is highly recommended to start a new playthrough nonetheless due to the odds of sequence breaking simply being a lot lower + you'll be able to see all the new stuff added in older content!

To correct Zumi (sorry zumi), while it does happen while speed up is active, it is likely not using speed up does not avoid the issue. The main culprit is MKXP-Z being updated to Ruby 3.1 which had known issues for Reborn during E19 testing. Unfortunately downgrading is current broken and the MKXP-Z developer just started a month long vacation. So. We're in for a time.

 

ty actually LOL, i've amended the post to have this info now

I have a question about the bug that has a very low chance of crashing the game randomly. You said it only happens with speedup, then warn everyone to go ahead and save often but don't mention speedup again. I guess what I'm trying to ask is, is it 100% only whenever using speedup, or is that unknown?

 

It is always when using speedup, but it never happens only at one specific point or doing one specific thing, it can happen at any point something's loading in. We suspect there's some RAM usage problems with something that causes it to spike too hard and crash, but we've yet to really pinpoint what exactly it is. The only thing that causes a crash more commonly is using the PC, but that doesn't explain why the crashes in the other places happen, so it's not related to that directly, likely.

Will the 100 percent complentionist guide be updated as well with this new update

 

That's out of our control, sorry! That guide's not made by anyone from the devs, so you'll have to look at BIGJRA for that.

Kinda a silly question, but is there a good way to be notified on when the update drops? I've blanket muted the Discord server, but like is there a specific channel that I should unmute?

 

Best thing you can do is unmute the Rejuv updates channel (called #rejupdates on the discord), we post any important updates there including any posts about version releases. There's also a Rejuv Pings role you can pick up in the bots channel on the server!

Okay so important question as someone who JUST started the v13 stuff recently. (I play in chunks)

 

Is 13.5 going to have enough early game content overhauled to necessitate another replay-? (I mean I likely will anyway but still)

Terajuma's been redone pretty much entirely and GDC got a massive overhaul ad well, so you decide whether that's worth playing again!

So, is the paragon and renegade endings basically just good and bad, or is it more than just that?

 

Yes but also it is a bit more than just that. Both are technically canon as explained in a previous post, they just show a different "side" of the story! Also, both routes will have two endings depending on your choices made throughout the game.

Im a Bit confused. When you sag that Paragon and Renegade Route have been completed do you mean like you’ve finished the entirety of the Story for Rejuvenation or have you just finished the changes necessary to activate both the routes from what’s available up to V13? Does that also mean V14 goes all the way through the last couple gym Leaders to the E8 and Champion?

 

The routes being completed means that the content for the new routes for as far as the story goes in 13.5 is practically done bar a couple of small things. The last version to be released is slated to be V16 as of right now, so no, the remaining leaders and the E8/Champion will not be fought immediately in V14, as well as that the routes will be continued in future updates as well. We've still got a bit to go and gotta spread out content across updates!

Are you still going to show the results of the balance changes from the survey? Or are they a bit too much into spoiler territory?

 

There's already been some posts about it, but the full results will not be published yet as we've yet to see whether the difficulty has gone down as intended— maybe after that I'll do a comparison post. We do want to be transparent about changes made to pain points that were pointed out thanks to the survey, so a list of balance changes will most likely be included with the game's update release and with an explanation as of why.

The hands look odd on black characters

 

If you look at photos of the hands of ppl with dark skin, they actually do look like that! There's not as much pigment/melanin in the palms of your hand or the soles of your feet as they're exposed much less often to the sun than the rest of your body, and it's especially notable on those w/ darker skin color, hence why the palms are lighter. I wanted to include that accuracy in Rejuv's art as well!

Yep! We're planning to add the system to our game as well.

Gen 9 is mostly solid across the board, but the feesh is so feckin cute, so good pick.


But I am very interested with how you will introduce terastalization and paradox forms

 

yeah don't expect terastalizing to be in the game, i can tell you that much right now LOL

actual balancing nightmare and it's already hard enough to find a good spot for balancing with this game as is

Good. is alpha test has been start? has any way to join in 

 

Internal testing hasn't even started because as seen in the dev post a lot of things aren't quite complete yet, so no, Alpha isn't underway yet. Besides that, Alpha testing is with a closed circle of people we know, trust and know can sift out the worst of the bugs. Beta testing is done with a larger group of people, but is exclusive to the people from the Alpha testing group & Jan's Patrons starting from certain tiers (and a couple of extra people we can trust where applicable).

This post indicated 3 endings.

 

Was that changed ?

 

Nope, the amount hasn't been reduced; in fact there's four total! While there's only two routes you can take, both of the paths will have two different possible endings.

im gonna guess the plan for early legendaries in renegade route to just be 

lol youre evil and youre catching them for clear and kierean for the more morally ambigious ones while the good ones are sent to stop u etc

 

so how excatly will this route setting work

given u could always change the variable in rpgmaker and debug no?

unlesss its a completelydifferent beast

 

 

Adding to Jan's comment, in any normal situation you'd NOT be using debug to change these things, nor do we account for that. So really, you only have yourself to blame if you mess with the variables and end up breaking your own file and story progression because of it.

I strongly hope you'll reconsider 2), but I also strongly dislike this style of boss fight in a Pokemon game and admit to being skeptical that it'll be more fun than what was in v12 for those fights.

 

Can't please everyone, sorry! We may make some changes depending on how it feels in practice during testing, but there are just going to be some things that some people won't be as happy with while others will be more than pleased. We're doing our best to find a middle ground, but we understand that it's impossible to do something everyone likes. We're trying to head into the direction that we think is best in the long run.
