  1. Bennett is portrayed as just young and misguided, that's the main picture I got of him at least after his introduction. However, during the rescue of Luna and Iolia Valley sections of the game, we see that he is conceited, obsessive and prone to violence once he doesn't get what he wants. Bennett isn't stupid, so I believe he knows that Elias is in cahoots with Team Meteor, but he(Bennett) is still willing to associate himself with a man who's in league with a terrorist organization responsible for countless deaths and the destruction of a city, just for the sake of his ambition. That's actually the reason why I don't like him. So far he's just as much of an a**hole as Fern, less abrasive of course, but he is willing to become the lackey of a criminal just to achieve his goal and obtain the respect he thinks he deserves, whilst being unaware that if he fulfills his ambitions by those means, he will be shunned even more. When thinking of redemption, I wish for him to look at himself, see what's wrong and then, set off on his own to solve those things the right way, instead of the impending moral spanking he will get from Serra. To put it simply, the only way by which Bennett can redeem himself in my eyes, is growing a pair, freeing himself from his crush, mom and El, giving the finger to those who think that he and his tastes are weird and grow as a person, while nursing his qualities and without losing his identity. I've read that a few people here believe that Fern will turn on meteor as a means of redeeming himself, but I feel that it would be much better if it was Bennett to do that. After realizing the error of his ways, he could screw one of their plans himself or aid the player in doing so. It would be even more awesome if he chooses to keep his actions a secret, because it would show that he now seeks something more important than recognition and flattery.
  2. Thanks again everyone! Indeed a very strange vid. I'm not into this J-Rock/Pop stuff but hey, thanks for the answer.
  3. Good evening. Well, this is kinda new to me so if this is not the best place to ask this forgive me. From what've I read so far, this update is somewhat short story wise but new sidequests were added and some earlier areas were revamped. So what do you guys think? Do the earlier new content make it worth a restart? Or should I continue from my current save, finish V8 and then have a second go? And also, was there any rework done on dialogue and story sections? (no need for spoilers, just yes or no). Thanks in advance. EDIT: Thanks Swampellow, I'll download it now. And sorry, turns out the V8 discussion thread was in my face and I should have posted this question there. Apologies.
  4. Hello good folks of reborn! Well, first look at that wolf! Yeah, that one. Then click in the name above it, if you'd like. The text that will appear under the "About me" sentence is, quite predictably, a small summary about myself, which for the sake of not being repetitive, I won't place here. Instead I would like to use this topic to say what is not present on said summary. I've been checking the forums on an almost daily basis since January I guess, because that's when I finished playing Pokemon Reborn for the first time, which by the way, was recommended to me by a friend. Needless to say, that when I finished this game I was amazed. After I beat Ciel and the message stating the conclusion of Ep. 15 appeared, I felt anxious and eager. Then I thought "Well let's keep track of it on the forums". However, I am not a very sociable person and thus, my lurking routine started. After months reading old topics and following the updates on the progress of Ep. 16, I came to understand that the wait wouldn't be short. Eventually Rejuvenation appeared, and with it, a pleasant surprise. The game that I thought would just be Reborn 2: The Mission was actually it's own thing, and was very good at being it's own thing. I had one more thing to look forward to. After a shorter wait, Rejuvenation's version 8 is out, but surprise: for a while, it will only be available to forum members. Upon discovering this, I said to myself: "I can wait a little longer. I don't have anything to say or to contribute, so I don't think I should register just to download a game. That's disrespectful." I didn't know how long it would be until I could download V8, but I was relaxed. Then I figured something important. There was something I could, and should've said sooner to Amethyst, Jan, and their respective development teams: Thanks for your time and effort. Those words may sound cheesy at first, but not when you stop to see things more seriously. These people spend their free time, and sometimes even time they don't have, working on their games. I read somewhere here that Amethyst had problems with her hands but kept working on Reborn, only slowing down when it was too critical to continue. I guess they enjoy the creative process, otherwise these games wouldn't exist but probably there are other things they enjoy doing, other ways to spend their time but a good share of it is spent in their games, regardless. And what they gain from all of this? Maybe many things but money isn't one of them. I enjoy their intelectual property for free, something that is created at the expense of their time, so I won't allow a personality trait of mine to prevent me from doing the decent, polite thing to do. So as my introduction on the Reborn Forums, I leave a humble but heartfelt thank you to Amethyst, Jan and their teams, for all the fun hours you graced me with. You guys are very much appreciated. I'm not one for words, but I look forward to participate in any discussions, as long as I feel comfortable with the subjects. Thanks for the attention of whoever read this. Peace
