  1. So i just finished the chapter so I figured I would give my thoughts/criticisms. I should also preface this by saying I like the game and have enjoyed playing it.

     

    -The largest gameplay issue is the low variation in types available, it feels like 80% of the pokemon are electric, while this may be intentional I am not fond of it thus far. Having more variation through ought the game with certain focuses is fine, but being limited this early is pretty annoying. 

     

    -The second issue I have is the writing in terms of the escalation of events and the use of killing characters. I feel like their have been a lot of characters with little development this combined with the very fast escalation of the plot itself into something on a macro level made me feel very removed. It felt out of left field and it didn't really bother me that anybody died because everything happened so quickly. That is one thing that I think Reborn has done well which is making deaths happen at the right time rather than just forcing them in. Killing a characters doesn't really up the stakes if the player doesn't know/like the character yet. 

     

    -The game feels buggy, as in you can randomly walk over walls or things that you should collide with. Randomly getting stuck in events or inside of walls, having to redo dialogue or getting stuck in dialogue loops. These issues have forced me to re-load earlier saves or go back if I don't save frequently. 

     

    - In terms of positives I have enjoyed the difficulty of the gym battle, but felt like the rest of the fights were a bit easy. I actually like the design of the maps although sometimes they feel a bit empty.

     

    - Also did this chapter have any event pokemon? Because I did not come across any despite me looking in most of the new areas. 

     

    If you need beta testers in the future to go through some of the kinks I may be able to help out.

     

    Edit: Didn't see this was discontinued best of luck in the future ^^

     

  2. Haven't seen this mentioned yet, but at the pokemon hospital you can schedule an appointment with Nurse Joy for 350k. Once you meet with her you can either choose to max an IV or get Pokerus. Not sure if you can do multiple at once , every time I tried only one of the effects would proc, despite her asking about three things. Thought this was a cool change with a high price, and a good addition to the game overall.  You can now Change Nature, Ability, and IV's which makes finding viable pokemon much easier.  

  3. So after an ungodly amount of soft resetting I have not been able to get a hidden ability starly from the credit machine. Is this just terrible RNG, or is this a glitch? Ability capsules can't get you HA in this and I have gotten a ton of Prankster Murkrow etc, so it isn't with all of the credit pokes. Just wondering if this is bad luck or intentional -.-

    No it's not.

    You're not even supposed to get that item yet... How did you get that?

     

     

    That shouldn't be included in the beta yet.

    So beta ends right after 2nd wormhole? Good to know, thanks. 

     

    Should I just rollback to before I battled her? Will my current situation mess up future patches?

     

    Edit: Also to note I actually have really enjoyed the game so far, the difficulty is on point. Story is a bit lacking in depth so far and characters aren't that memorable but it is still early. Keep it up and good luck in the future. I will post any other glitches I find here ^^

     

    Edit 2: Another glitch is that you can constantly re battle Cresselia in the first wormhole, and she gives 400 exp and 1k coins everytime I am assuming this isn't intentional.

    Accidental double post. Sorry 

    • So might as well put this post to use, I am stuck again right after the first gym in the second ultrawormhole.
    • I died at the regi's because I didn't heal after the boss fight, and once I blacked out and came back Sapphire went invisible and now when the fight starts, it just goes into a black screen.

    • I rolled back my save and redid the event without dying and it worked smoothly. But might be a bug fix you wanna look into anyway ^^
    • Stuck again right after Zoey Rival fight ( she had level 12 and under pokes) I am stuck in a loop running into her and cannot move. Not sure if this is where the current game ends or not.

    I just started the game and I feel like the Dratini for Sunkern trade is suppose to be a joke or something but has anyone actually been able to do it yet

    Not a joke you can get Sunkern outside of Jensons mansion in Perrenial/Malachite city.

    Also important to note the level caps are off on the trainer card.

     

    The first gym level cap is 25 and the second is 35 ( based off of the first gym text).

    k. I'll get right on that.

    The new download worked, and the event/cave doorway worked. I will try and finish the episode soon, thanks for the quick response. 

     

    Edit: One potentially minor problem is the new download when I unzipped didn't have an audio folder, I just moved the one from the old folder into this one and it worked. But you might wanna check that out ^^

     

    Edit 2: The graveyard event it still glitched i can go in the cave alone, but when i talk to the nerd about it her teleports me back into the wall and cannot get out.  When entering perennial city I get the park text with Zoey before Hunter speaks to me, and then once i spoke to Zoey again in the PC the text repeated.

    Edit: I also posted in your discord about a broken cliff I had found, not sure if you check that. 

  9. I am stuck in Fern cave, it seems like their is something blocking me from going through the cross path, and leaving through the original exit gets me stuck in a bunch of tree (Grunt is blocking the other exit).

    As Stated above my man, I recommend playing legend of the arena or Uranium(try to see if u can download uranium on pc again). You won't go wrong with LoftA in my opinion it's story/Plot rivials if not surpasses reborn and it's difficulity isn't to shabby either. Uranium was my first fan-game so, it's has a special place in my heart but, both it's challenges and plot are something you can really get into.

    I played Uranium, I am not a huge fan of fakemon and it wasn't that difficult. I am thinking about giving LoftA a shot, I have started it before but never went back to it after about an hour of gameplay. I have heard it is not difficult, which turned me off of it before trying but i might check it again. 

  11. The problem I have with a lot of fan games is them just being to easy to keep my interest. Reborn Hardcore was the perfect mix of difficulty and story imo, as it wasn't so hard that it hampered regular progression and let me enjoy Reborns story. What other fangames have a similar difficulty, and not absolute shit stories? (I definitely value battle difficulty over puzzle/story challenges but appreciate both)

     

    Games I have completed/put time into - Reborn, Rejuv, Insurgence, Desolation, and Apex ( I have tried a whole slew of other games that just felt to easy or the story had me lose interest)

     

    Are their "hardcore" versions of other fan games that give a better experience similar to Reborn? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
