Not trashing on Jan or whatever and I know that rewrites have certainly made characters more likeable and made the game more enticing than what I saw it was looking at older versions of the game but I feel like a couple parts of the game needs a rewrite for some parts and that includes some characters, the story in some places, and the plot in some places. One of my bigger problems with Rejuvenation is that sometimes the game makes it so defeating your opponent just doesn't have any significant impact. Like with the shadow Mewtwo near the beginning of the game, I like the fight, it's neat and all if you defeat the Mewtwo, but afterwards it's like it doesn't even matter. Would have made more sense if Keta/Kenneth told the player to go on ahead with Aelita whether or not the player won or lost and then fought Madelis's team with either the shadow Mewtwo if it won, or her Pokemon team she has if it lost against the player and either way he dies because Madelis beats him then kills him but at the very least it makes it feel like I as the player had made a difference instead of just "Ha ha! I have max revives!"
Anyway next point is Blacksteeple Castle. Everyone in that castle is an idiot. Simple solution that I see? Just make the stay longer but just have it skip a week instead of a day passing. Neved trusting Emma/Melia after a day is bullshit especially considering he never saw her face. Make him ask her if she wants to join week two or whatever then week 3 right before Madame X arrives and before the player escapes have him tell Melia everything because at that point he'd trust her enough instead of being a complete moron telling her everything day 3 she's there and has only been suspicious with how she's asking him everything and for some reason Neved giving an answer anyway even though he said she was lower than a guard in the first place her reminding him of his daughter doesn't justify jack shit. Also no one cares that the MP's mother dies, only that Melia zapped Madame X. Most of the characters tell the MP that they're sorry my mother died like once then it's over and never mentioned again. And the apologies aren't even good ones. Anyway that's all for now. P.S. I love this game, just wish stuff like Blacksteeple could be improved.
