  1. Dunno i think these segments of rejuv are kinda how  human's civilization advancement works.  

    Has more stuff to do  and QoL improves,  looks much fancier too,    but if you scrape the surface  you notice that certain aspects have become worse, while disguised as better (like food quality). By the way this doesn't extend to battles. I like the new ones much more than the previous ones. I can understand this is purely subjective though

     

    Speaking of advancement, when i was 7 i didn't have a favorite CD because i was still listening to cassette tapes >.<  (mostly Scorpions) . The 90's was some pretty interesting span of years where many new things slowly spread more. (i guess the first years after 2000 can also count into that.)

     

    By the way i do feel the v8+ content does work on some of the character's  development. At least more than currently (also introducing best girl).

  2. What a fucking madman.  You probably did some rough calcs before but ..   what  fucking madman.  Sending a dragon to kill a bulky ice type is one thing, but switching it on an incoming ice stab on top ... lmao.    So lucky Cold Truth is weaker than ice beam (has a 30% freeze chance tho).

    Also rip Soozey. This was the most unfair death in the whole series imo. Just makes you hate Veronica even more. 

     

    The Terribly Titled franchise now  started  havng ads in its content.  One of which will send you straight to the dentist.  World's really going to decline   I would still pirate buy that CD tho.

     

    Also leave it to Sean to make an already dramatic segment 10 times more dramatic.

    Remember how I said it feels like the dev thinks we're idiots? It's the use of being unnaturally specific so that players have no way of getting lost.

    After watching  most Poketubers playing reborn, I can see where is jan coming from.

    Like how the bloody heck would Melia know it was next door and not two doors down.

    If it was  3 Doors Down though i would know right away  🚪🚶‍♂️

     

    I like that the new team for Rorim B  is themed around him being a dancer. The rain nerfs the Volcarona so it isn't as overwhelming, so you only need to look out for  quiver dance boosts.

     

    Wow that was some huge  Melia-Ren analysis.  Admirable.  I never bothered to sit down and connect all that together on my own, so it was actually a favor being done to me.  So in the end are you concluding that Melia being the mary sue she was till this point was justified?

     

    By the way now that there is access to the rest of the map again are you going to dedicate a section  for  sidequesting/exploring?

  4. The episode where  Sean is gradually being fed a spoonful of rejection.

    Yes, magcargos got buffed in gen 7 to be decent,  now sporting 50>60 base HP and  80>90 base sp.atk,  so they can sweep better with shell smash.  Magcargo 6-0's  many fights in  Reborn including Noel.

     

    I changed Tapatalk's theme with a google chrome extension called "Stylsh".  Users share their custom made skins for  any kind of site in there, and others are able to use them.  I have dark themes for many sites from that, including facebook and mangastream.

    Google started to automatically disable it lately, but not very often, so i gotta  go to my extensions and manually enable it  sometimes, but its still worth it.

  5. Yeah generally the game encourages you to delay doing the  help quests until after you finish the story of the surrounding place.  Which is why i do just that, except if i really need a Help Quest reward to beat the next segment.

    I also find the part with Zetta pretty weak,  also  if we are the ones that fight him, what the fuck are the rest doing with their pokemon out ???    In my opinion the lava obstacle should be covering the cave entrance,  and it should have been implied that there are stalactites above which would make it too dangerous for a flying pokemon to try enter the cave like that...

     

    Team Anti-Assist is forced comedy...  and  as for the Conk fight,  i didn't really have problem with it tbh...  I don't remember what i did in previous runs, but in my grass mono  it was  raining and  i set up  Growths  with  Shiftry and Whimsicott and then spammed hurricanes...    I had more problem with the last double battle against  Team AA in the "unchecked" room of the  Help Center.

    Side note: Timburr learns Stone Edge by level up...  Those Timburrs had level up moves mander...

     

    Filthy covered me about the bridge scene.

    (...I really have to get my head out of the gutter. Please get that image out of my head)

    How can I do that when you inserted the image in my head too?

    Yknow a friend of mine  reached this segment with a bug mono and every day kept crying to me "this is boooooorinnnng"    and i was like  "it isn't that bad" .   He eventually hiatus'd  it before  even reaching Crawli's fight

  7. .... I really like the v10 fight more than v9.... it  feels different and fresh.  And i appreciated that.  Just because you happened to have a team that couldn't handle qwilfish though, it's understandable you'd want to go to the more favorable matchup of v9 since you had that convenience.

    V10 did increase the difficulty of the game in general a notch, which is one of its main selling points anyway so i actually support it. Also to be honest i didn't even know the difference between normal and intense (i have never tried normal)  sets when i was pushing you for intense.  It  seems the differences start to be more apparent from Angie and onwards.

    Aside from increasing difficulty though, it also solved grinding issues. You are pretty much ready to fight the next major fight by the time it comes, and  you even have the leisure to level up a new pokemon on the way. It is very healthy because that new pokemon could be a choice to help you with the next leader.  At this point, with this new system people who just want to remain with 6 pokemon for the whole playthrough are just stubborn because they are used to play like that in easier games.

    Also you have Walter.  Why are you afraid of doubles crawli that much? xd  Let the rocks slide  m' dude!  That's a nicely made fight. More creative than the  v9 one at least.

     

    That aside, you are probably the first criticizer that has even remotely  liked Braixen

    (I....I swear we were told that at some point in the game before Blacksteeple even. Well at least human souls played a key part in this or something. So yeah, you learned nothing)

    I'm pretty sure  Neved said it to Melia so  technically the player only learns it just now...  
    I think the game could work without showing stuff outside of the player's PoV  tbh

    So please when you write a story, don't think about killing people.

    Deaths  is one of the  things that spice up stories for me.  If a story has not deaths i find it a bit boring...

    (I tired with Loewe)

    Aw 😞  Is he falling so much off?  Just give it some time until he learns swords dance...

    Also this was a fun rant marathon  xD   good start of the day.

  9. Hello, i downloaded the pack and i find many of its features cool,   but the TMX mod makes the options when you select a pokemon a bit too crowded. maybe it would be better if only Fly and Flash are visible in the list, because the rest can be done by interacting with their intended targets anyway ..
    Alternatively, a "TMX" option could be included that you click it and then select the move you want to use...

  10. This ep had some rollercoasters.  nice.  

     

    Jackpotception?

     

    Also duno what's luckier,  getting that masterball,  or Rose  hitting  a minimized Muk 3 times in a row without missing,  and not hitting herself in confusion  all at once xD

     

    I usually didn't give so much gravity to the dialogues, but your locke makes me dislike Melia even more heh

     

    @Angelkitsune  You may want to  correct that they are Reborn e18 spoilers.  Maybe he doesnt mind rejuv spoilers but will mind reborn spoilers.

  11. If you went to the back room, you could have seen Melia relaxing in a bed xD   Would have probably "improved" your mood xD
    Poor Sean wants a pedicure too.

    That aside though Tesla is probably the closest thing to a likable character.

     

    Yep, i think I will download the PBS to add that option there in the Amber confrontation. 

     

    >MySpace...    That's a relic, man lol

     

  12. "Huh?" A mildly taken off-guard horace reacted. "Eh, sure, I guess. Though I hope someone else will be willing to help. Interrogation works better with two people. "

    Horace would go back to the meeting room and ask "I think i'm going to go and see if the Rockets have been prepared for interrogation. Anyone would like to help me milk information out of them?"
