First off, I love the game, thank you guys for all the work you put in..BUT there's some serious BS in the new release let me start.
I have beaten the game like 1231321 times so yeah, with that out of the way lets get it crackin. Play the game from the beginning and you'll see what I'm talking about.
1. YOU CANT SET UP ON ANYONE, THEY WILL CRIT YOUR ASS TO OBLIVION. What the hell is this ? Yo I get it if they get the ocassinal crit but this is just pure BS not everyone uses Blaziken as a starter, if you cant balance him out properly remove him ffs, It just puts the game down as a whole.
An example, I go in with alakazam, I use 1 calm mind, the foe crits me, I die, I reset cause of the RTG nature and the bosses being hard as fuck, go back in, use calm mind again, 1st hit fine, I recover, 2nd hit CRIT, I survive with 2 hp, I use a potion, go back in, A 3RD CRIT ? da fuck ? and this shit happens all the fucking time.
2. Let me get this straight, 50 lv+ I go against a Garchomp THAT I HIT WITH OUTRAGE and it was not supper effective, hit him with surf STILL NOTHING, hes draco meteor ignores his debufs and destroyes everything, apart from that, back to the crit thing, all of the highter level foes CRIT the fuck out of you, and when garchomp crits you you're pretty much done. Give me a dragon ffs, or some decent pokes, to get a mudkip, a MUDKIP ! I have to wait till level 1321213 ? really ? pure chease.
3. I love the field effects, I love how the game plays but this RTG bullshit is over the top and brings the game down, some of the changes are straight out bad, like replacing mudkip with squirtle, I dont know what you guys have in store for the rest of the episodes, but as is now, it brings the game down.
Dont get me wrong, its awesome to play, the new AI, is cool as hell, I suggest these things to be rebalanced.
4.th to evolve my magneton I have to be level 120000 ? really ? again ? why ? this makes no sense what was wrong with the old way of getting the key? why push it even more till the end ?
5TH. The chess puzzle, I love it as a concept, but fuck me did you went over the top, thank god for walkthrougs, cause I played chess once in my life.
I am not gonna learn how to be a chess master cause of one puzzle. This is more of a nitcpick though but throwing it out there. This is the only puzzle I have an issue with.
Its changes like this, that really bring the game down as a whole, I dont care about HARDCORE POKEMON PLAYERS, I just want to chill, sit back and enjoy, I would not be posting this, if it was not a problem, I've beat so many chease hacks, and all the games, but that still does not change the fact, the game is full of chease as is.
You can push trough and beat it, but all fun is lost. I maybe shit at the game, true, I suggest when all the work is done, if have the motivation, to do it, introduce a diff setting.
I tried not to be to negative, but I would like to give you guys some feedback, thanks again, all your work is awesome, I hope you revert some of this BS.
CONCLUSION.
The game is still awesome, the ideas, the puzzles( not the chess one), the freedom you have. You guys rock for doing this, and desirve all the praise you get, I am coding a fighting game for some time now, and I know how in a closed enveiorment you can put stuff in that when you look at them a week later, you think to yourself what the hell was I thinking. Keep on rocking Ame, the testers and all people involved, and a big thank you again.
