    If mentioning Bastion, Transistor should get mentioned too (same studio, 'similar' gameplay).

    I'd only recommend Transistor if you like Bastion, but aren't disappointed by it not being Bastion. I enjoy it well enough, but it's not the same.

     

    Also, I'm also throwing a vote in for Stardew. It's getting multiplayer eventually, so that might make it worth looking into.

    What about FF?

    If your talking about Final Fantasy, I found that Four was the most enjoyable one for me. Granted I never beat it because I triggered a point of no return we under-leveled. I did beat Seven, and had fun, but had a hard time enjoying it fully because of how over rated I feel it is. (Yes, its a good game, but nostalgia should only go so far.) Eight was kind of good, but I never understood how to junction properly. Ten had the best game play (more akin to a classical turn based RPG, instead of the wind up combat in most of the recent ones), but by God the English voice acting is terrible for the protagonist, that I lost the will to play it.

  3. Technically speaking, Bastion is a hack and slash RPG, so that might work. I kind of depends on how you define RPG. I'd also recommend; Terraira, Don't Starve, and Crypt of the Necordancer, though these are either survival or rogue like RPGs.

  4. I just had a possible idea for the team name, if you were willing to ditch the "Team" in front of it. Since these are people trying to put a king in power, you could call them "The Court" as in the king's court. (I've been thinking about the game Darkest Dungeon's expansion called The Crimson Court lately, if it weren't obvious.)

  5. What I like about this evil team:

    -The chess/card based themes

    -The potential for the villains to be in the right

    What I'm not so sure about:

    -The name "Royal" feels a little cheesy (Though Skull isn't much better)

    -Would there even be an Elite Four under a tyrannical king?

  6. Didn't they do that in Omnicron and Zeta? When you enter the "new" area you are forced to use a new team, but upon returning to the old area you get your old team back.

     

    Frankly I wold not be thrilled if at any point my team was removed from me. If I spent time training, breeding, and IV boosting my team, I'd better get to keep them all the way through.

  7. I had a hard time with the level cap when I first started playing, but found that as the game progressed, the level cap became a little more "fair" the further you went. Not to say it got easier of course.

     

    God help us when we have to take on the champion/final boss who has a full team of level one hundred Pokemon.

  8. The two most consistent things I do in a Pokemon Game, be it fan or official, are...

     

    -Give my Pokemon unique names, personalities, and backstories. This is just to add more spice to the game, and make battles a bit more intense.

    -Only use Pokeballs. Yes, that includes catching Beldum in Reborn. Unless the Pokeball looks cool and is supposed to be used on a specific Pokemon (i.e. Beast Balls) I always stick to the classic. Probably because that's what Ash did for the majority of the anime, which is where I got the inspiration to add the aforementioned personalities and backstories. Plus Ultra Balls look super ugly.

  9. Frankly, what I'm going to say goes against what some of the others have said, but of course its all just an opinion.

     

    Reborn is most definitely the more complete game, but sort of suffers from its cast. I found some of the characters to be either dull or annoying, and ended up having way to much time focused on them. (I'm looking at you Titania.) Reborn's world also feels a bit bigger, but sort of lacks the spark to it. I really don't care about what happens to some of the characters (Cain excluded) which hurts the plot. Gameplay wise, it's great and super difficult for a casual like me, which makes up for the story.

     

    Rejuvenation in my opinion has the superior plot. I'm actually very interested in finding out what the heck is happening, what the character's motivations are, and how your character deals with the messed up stuff that happens to them keeps me going. Plus, it has difficulty levels that let you choose how hard it is. Come on, that's freaking amazing. The help canter also makes me love it even more, as a side quest might end up leading to something much, much darker in the main quest too, while also reminding me of the help center in Paper Mario.

     

    If you want my advice, try both until the first gym. After that, make a choice on which one you want to play to its current completion, then go and play the other.

  10. Yeah... As far as designs go, I think this looks pretty lazy. Now I'm starting to wonder if all the "new" Pokemon they're going to be adding are going to be designed with such flair, or this was just the really bad one they leaked so they could get it out of the way.

     

    Though I was never hyped for the Ultra games, so this only furthers my uninterest in them.

  11. I mean, I have admittedly low standards when it comes to sprite work, but believe me when I say this is pretty good looking. The left hand looks a little scrunched to me, but other than that I think this looks pretty decent.
