Also forgot to say congrats for beating the Glass gauntlet! It was what I warned you about a long while back, but i'm glad you powered through!

Thank you. You may also gratulate me for beating the entire game

Lucky you, Nguyen! I mainly used my waterchampions as tanks.

How do you do, fellow kids?

In the latest part of my walkthrough, I mainly talked about the character Amaria and her arc and role in Pokemon Reborn. Since I have and had a personal connection to the topics covered here, I found her arc to be my favorite one in the game, or rather the most thought-provoking one. There were some thoughts I had to write down regarding the hate(?) for her in the fandom, but since I don't think too many will read them in the context of my walkthrough, I'd like to share them here, even though I'm extremely biased in these kind of topics and opening up a topic for such a sensible matter could easily lead to a fine shitstorm. I'm still eager to try, lets discuss!

So here's what I wrote and think about Amaria, Titania and the topics presented in E18: (Spoilers, obviously)

Spoiler

Amaria isn't evil -

The art of understanding

Depression and suicidal thoughts are a dark, dark place. Nobody, and really nobody who is seriously affected by this is a remarkably pleasant person. The fact that those affected not only suffer from their inner emptiness and senselessness, but also repel everything and everyone with fatal finality, is almost a part of the clinical picture, because it is usually extremely difficult for outsiders to cope with this behavior or to put themselves into the person's shoes. I know that myself, because I also had and have to deal with close friends who are in this very dark place.

But it is perhaps more important to mention, and here I am getting a little personal, very unusual, that I was also in this dark place and almost wouldn't have left it. Maybe I never really did. But hey, I'm alive and well, which is the reason you had to endure this walkthrough for months now. What I want to say is that I think I can claim to be able to understand characters like Amaria. Her attachment and complete projection towards Titania almost resembles my behavior towards a friend at that time. My views on it are so biased that I don't really want to say too much about it, but I have to.

As I understood before and especially through my research after this arc, Amaria is hated as a toxic, terrible and selfish character that pulls Titania down with her. I totally get this thinking. I can really understand this opinion which, to an extend, corresponds to the facts, whether we are talking about Amaria or a real person. But it's just part of the truth and what worries me is that I'm not entirely sure if Amethyst as the author was aware of that. But I strongly believe she was.

This exuberant hate and the labeling of Amaria as toxic once again shows for me personally how much incomprehension, ignorance and lack of education still exists for sufferings such as severe depression, suicidal thoughts, loneliness and dependency. For someone like me, it is a self-righteous, unreflective and limited swarm attitude, one which you can see on platforms such as Reddit or online forums, when, for example, Forever Alones meet 'Normies' and the latter start giving advice. I shudder at the thought. But we’re moving too far from the subject. Simply dismissing Amaria as a toxic psycho-bitch says more about you than about her. Because, luckily! - apparently it is not possible for you to imagine yourself in someone’s shoes who has only felt emptiness and sadness all his life, has no human closeness and simply has no desire to live. I wish you that it stays that way - nobody should be there. But don't judge those who are.

Naturally, Amaria is almost psychotically dependent and clinging to Titania. Naturally, Titania suffers from it unspeakably and I think it's good that she was able to escape it in the course of the game. This is a terrible situation for both characters, as well as for real people in this context. But can you seriously condemn Amaria for not wanting to lose the only person she has, the sole reason for her existence? I mean, really? I'm not saying that it makes her more likeable or that Titania has to suffer for Amaria's sake. I'm just saying I fully understand how this character feels.

It is perfectly normal that Amaria or chronic depressed people are PERMANENTly insecure and afraid that the few people in their lives will let them down, Amethyst has captured this very well. It is also normal, I say that from experience, that they constantly "test" them to confirm their loyalty. These are reasons why depressed people sooner or later push everything and everyone away from them, and they can - not - stop it.

If this seems all toxic and self-centered to you, please try to seriously introduce yourself to a thought for a minute. You grow up and aren’t able to happy about anything. Not about sweets, not about games, not about nice weather. You just lack the ability to be happy, which seems to be so very normal to everyone else around you. You never had any friends and of course no romantic partner until the age of 30 and afterwards, have not kissed anyone yet, feel completely decoupled from the world and society. And then there is this one person who gets through to you and who means something to you and who is there for you and who endures your awfulness and does not give up on you.

Of course you make them your whole world like a drowning person clinging to a piece of wood. Is it healthy for Titania or Amaria? Is it fair? No, but that's how it fucking works.

Yes, locking myself up to drown under water is highly toxic, psychopathic and unforgivable. But from my EXTREMELY biased perspective, I say that I understood her conflict and still don't judge Amaria for it. She is desperately looking for someone to blame for the fact that the only person she cares about is about to break away, and in her suicidal depression she doesn't think it could be herself.

Yes, Amaria is psychotic and you can deeply condemn her behavior. Her suffering does not justify her actions. But in my opinion and experience with depression, she never acts with a clear mind in this matter, she is broken lonely, desperately addicted to love and paranoid to lose literally the only thing in the world that prevents her from jumping out of a window.

Jeez, I don't judge the girl any more than any real person who acts on it. I just feel so sorry for her. Honest, sincere pity. And that's exactly how I feel for Titania too, who, on behalf of many real people, has the role of the 'anchor' and ultimately escapes this unhealthy relationship. Do I give her that? Hell yes. If another person overloads and destroys you with needs and expectations, leave her behind. Does it still hurt my soul for Amaria? Fuck yes. I impulsively hate and condemn the fictional character Titania for letting Amaria down, playing in the arms of her biggest and only fear and probably effectively sentencing her to death, but I also know that this is just my irrational brain. No one is to blame in such a relationship. Nobody wins. Everyone loses. There really is no good and evil here, and certainly no one to judge.

After all this is said, I would like to emphasize again how much I always appreciate it when a medium addresses this difficult and still very hesitantly treated topic in pop culture, as Amethyst did here. Amaria's and Titania's dialogues are written so well and understandably that I am absolutely certain that Amethyst has had her own experience in the matter and or has done extremely good research. This was all taken from reality on point. High praise, and even if it hurt it was my favorite arc in the game. And let’s also note the fact that Amaria reflected on her behavior before her gym fight. She is aware of all she does. There is just nothing she can do about it. What would there be?

I hope she didn't kill herself and we'll see her again in E19. I would really hope so. Otherwise I already know who, at the end of Pokemon Reborn, is no longer my very favorite character.

And that too says a lot about me, I know.

Again, I know how subjective my standpoint is, but so is every other who condemns her. I don't know if its approtiate to go into complex topics like depression, suicide and toxic relationships in the forum of a pokemon fangame too deep, but hey, sincere there already have been several discussions regarding her character here and the game inspires it, why not debate about it?

I'm interested what you think about my thoughts. Thanks for your time!

And maybe exactly these emotions are the logic behind this

soooo.... not worth it.

So I think my next part will take a bit longer since I didnt know the last thing I wanted to include in it was the actual big story climax. That some stuff to take in.

All fun and no work here!

April 19, 2020

I DID IT

After hours of frustrating attempts and one destroyed computer mouse I beat this fucking battle. The rest of the game will be a piece of cotton candy compared to that! Now I can write my next little review.

I love my team. Theyre failbobs, and shitheads, and useless freaks, but damn they're bringing me through this miserably balanced game...!!

HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT, AMETHYST? HUH?! WHAT DO YOOU SAY NOW, CASS?! NOT SO SASS ANYMORE, AM I RIGHT?

THE

VERY

BEST

Here's one tip that you might want to know!

After the second battle, any fainted Pokemon aren't restored, but any ones that are still conscious are fully healed, as if a Full Restore was used on your whole team.

That aside, the gauntlet is incredibly difficult, and is probably one of the hardest fights in Reborn.

uh.... thanks. I wont even start to wonder about the logic behind it. Amethyst will know.

I think its safe to say its the hardest by far so far for me, considering the cirstumstances and that all three battles are decently hard, with the first being the hardest one (Luckily, would be even worse losing againd and again at the third one)

thanks for your words!

X Items are broken and can really make "impossible battle" quite easy.

Ive read that many times now but I dont really buy it. I dont really trust the value of an item rising ONE value of a pokemon which will die with one or two attacks, I usually prefer attacking to get through with it. see, the main problem all of my mon had with battles in this game, ESPECIALLY the late game, is that theyre all, without exception, fucking slow. Even my Rapidash, which was ALMOST first in the first half of the game is slower than every single enemy mon by now. In consequence, many of my mon get one-hitted or almost by most enemies all the time. Its really kill or be killed. Thank you though for the advice.

For reference, recordings of the first two battles:

Luna(??)

I was so proud on myself because I rreally thought I did not bad with strategizing, using field effects, first trying Luna and stuff, but the not healing and my lack of potions really broke my neck at the third fight. You can see I was depressed before, but maybe I can pull this off eventually....

Nevermind, cant upload a video longer than ten minutes, so I have only the recording of the second battle right now.... ah, whatever.....

April 19, 2020

Im now at the final of the glass factory and I never felt that destroyed in Reborn before. In 40 minutes i battled through the two boss battles with all I had only to be greeted by a third one without a team healing and no potions left. I fought through half of it but then Ijust got overwhelmed because I had to heal my dead mon.

I really dont know how to commend on that. I mean, I could understand it if my team would get curted the third time too. But this is just... I dont know... there really are no words to that anymore. Obviously you all love the balancing of this game so that battle is a piece of art too and its just me being too bad. I dont think I will ever get through that battle actually, but maybe if stack myself with cotton candy x99 and ultra portion x99 and toxic my way through every single battle....

Right now I feel a bit like crying because all of that is so incredible frustrating and the knowledge that nobody thinks anything is wrong with such a Triple-bossbattle without healings in between makes it all the more devastating.

I hate this game so much as I love it. Right now much more. Reborn truly has the worst balancinbg I ever perceived in any videogame.

Talk about strategizing. Ill see how I strategize my way through these 30 enemy pokemon in a row................

Part 8: A Nation Reborn

https://gedankenbloggade-yoraiko.blogspot.com/2020/04/pokemon-fangame-pokemon-reborn_18.html

I'm gonna fight 'em all
An eighteen nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip me off
Taking their time right behind my back

And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forfeit
Back and forth through my team
Behind a cheesy strat'
And the teardrops coming from my eyes
Say dont you fuckin' stop

Don't want to hear about it
Every single one's got a puzzle to solve
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of Reborn to the hounds of Lin

And if I catch her coming back my way
I'm gonna throw it at you
And that ain't what you want to read
But that's what I'll do
And the feeling coming from my guts
Say fucking pull through

I'm going to Amaria
Far from this fornever aftermore
I'm gonna drown the gym
Make the blood drip out of every ball
And I'm bleeding, and I'm losing, and I'm raging

Right before the lords more like ladys
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will lose no more

And the voices coming from my head
Say freakin' stop to roar

April 18, 2020

Thanks.

Im at climbing the ice mountain qith hardy right now and Im up in the corner with the cave and dont know how to process. I thought about melting the ice with my firestorm or flame charge in battle but it didn't do anything. How di I get into the cave?

E: nvm, found the path towards hardy...

April 17, 2020

Thanks. One more question:

I'm at the point where I fight Amaria. But I want to do all the possible optional stuff I can at this point beforehand so Im prepared as possible. I found an E18-sidequest-guide here, but most of them aren't avaiable to me yet and the guide isnt complete either.

Does someone know which sidequest-stuff, aside from the founding, is the most imprtant I can do right now, or which helps in preparing for Amaria?

April 17, 2020

I dont think theres a better place to ask, so: Can anyone tell me what the reward for hatching starters for the grand hall lady is? I dont think I will do that quest but just for interest, what would I get for all the work?

I also have some speculations about Heather's field.

I think Saphira will use dragons.

hi i'm cass. i also make this game.

Hi cass, you free this evening? You know, we could... go hunt some shinies... fuck up a meteor base... lose some double battles together... watch the sunset from beryl bridge.... eat some cotton candy... no shared bill, though, everyone pays his own. Hope you understand.

Quote

so, first, since i elected not to include this earlier, the game is not deliberately intended to be tedious beyond to extent to which, like, it's an rpg and this is kind of how they go. i'm certainly on the watch for ways to ease the tedium, but there are also often reasons why it exists/stays etc.

Personally I dont agree to this degree with substance over playability, but thats just me and now I can at least partly understand where this comes from. Still looking forward to E19, though.

Quote

yeah bud i dunno about that one.

this post? this is criticism. it's coherent, composed, well-stated. this is something i can appreciate.

the "reviews" are, at best, an irreverent liveblog. they read like the first post. to someone who has no context and does not get the humor, it reads like the start of this thread. i would expect a reasonable reaction to the 6th instance of such a liveblog to be something along the lines of "really? another? why?"

so if we assume that

This dialogue we have right now is just that, a dialogue. It works differently than a walkthrough in which I dont have a conversation partner, especially one who can explain me like you why that is that and this is like that. I know these reports are no coherent reviews standing on their own, theyre not supposed to - I will write a full review when Im done, naturally. They're a walkthrough and mainly a collection of my thoughts, at best rewritten for better readability now and then. There are indeed people who enjoy them, although of course I know articles are never as effective as a Lets Play, so maybe I will try that stuff out someday too. Maybe with Rejuvenation. Not so likely though. Writing is more my part.

Quote

could you not?

Quote

it literally doesn't matter because your points do not make it through. ame won't read your blogs. i've reached a point where i no longer have the patience to, either.

I'm afraid this is a request I can't fulfill. Mainly because, well, I'm almost fucking done. Can't stop now, can I?

No but my actual point here is, I dont really care for Ame or any other developer reading my stuff, as harsh as it sounds, I'm already happy when someone who played and plays the same game reads it and can connect to some thoughts. The criticism is there, just as the good points, if the developers read it or not. More importantly even is that I didn't make myself clear in my last post, so I correct that mistake: I dont write them mainly for you, I write them for me. These thought-sheets are honest and really useful when it will be time to write a complete review, I like that they help me to look back on my reborn-experience and writing is just my form of self-expression, in which form it ever may be. Writing about this games gives me the feeling I dont only waste my time playing a videogame but also producing something out of it. It may be outright shit I produce, but hey, it something, right? Without this Walkthrough I would have definitely stopped playing Reborn with the first Arceus. But it motivated me to keep going and that really is all that matters, right? Its fun to me.

Is it worth putting all this work into something twice translation) for a walkthrough barely anyone wants to read? No. Did I still do it? Yes. That's just the kind of person I am.

Still free this evening, cass. Just sayin'.

Quote

big peeve of mine? lag. holy shit, the lag in this game is so bad.

Yeah right. Personally stuff like this is something that doesn't bother me because it is clearly not intended. I'm more annoyed by the things I think are intended and which I see as flaws.

Quote

things would probably be way different if your blogs read like your last post. i would certainly welcome that.

I got you covered, improvement is all part of the proccess and I'm always trying to live up to that, so of course I will try to keep my remaining parts more in an argumentative style. That's one of the reasons all my parts are cut in two halfs though, the text and the PRO/CONTRA/NEUTRAL lists. The latter are just plain thoughts I write down all the time while playing. Cant really do much about them except take out the swearing. God do I swear much into my word document all the time. Yes, I've got issues. Maybe. BUT Y'ALL DO TOO!!!!

April 12, 2020

Hey dear friend, thanks for your response! Appreciate it. No sarcasm here.

Quote

it is probably worth mentioning that the hole in the back of her arena will take you out to where the healing station is in train town. this allows you to save some backtracking.

Yeah, thats a blessing. Didnt help with reshiram but hey, appreciate it before Titania.

Quote

my sarcasm detector senses a bit of salt here.

Does it?

Quote

i believe this comes from a bit of a misunderstanding about the game. reborn is supposed to be hard. there is a level of difficulty that the canon games are (especially more recently) sorely lacking and it is that gap that reborn seeks to fill.

there are, of course, a number of differences that this causes from a gameplay perspective, the primary of which is that you will have to play more strategically and adapt to the different battles. there are a lot of ways to do this- ev training, nature changing, rotation-based teams that swap from a pool of pokemon to best fight specific opponents. there are ways around obstacles.

but we've already had this talk before. and, indeed, my impression of you is mostly that you're here to make noise. so this is, perhaps, not specifically for your benefit, but also for those who dropped in because of the racket.

...i would add in quotes from your post, but god is it noisy. we'll just do a list.

the first comment i'd make is that this is not the first time someone has been turned off by the difficulty- there are absolutely other players who stick around for the story and don't particularly like the tough fights. that's valid! this is why lite mode is in development- we want it to be more accessible to those players while still presenting a challenge ~~which is going to be a tough needle to thread.~~

you probably remember me saying this, too.

See, I absolutely agree with you about the official games being a joke since... Y and X in my opinion, BW2 was the last official game I really enjoyed. But there is some gray area which this game ignores at times, and at times doesn't. The problem is, the difficulty of the battles wasn't the problem here at all and wasn't the point of my - slightly irrational angered - post up there. I already beat the reshiram with a bit of playing around, its okay, and in retrospektive most of the battles in reborn never were the actual problem. No, what brought me to the silly ragewall up there is the thing which I think is, besides the horrendous puzzle-design (Devon corp), the actual mainproblem of reborn, namingly the frustrating lack of comfort, either due to Ame wanting this game to be as rough as possible or just her missing it, which can happen. This is something that can be easily fixed, if needed. This critique is a point I can back up with arguments and not with blind rage like I tend to do when I struggle with some of the incredibly-hard-balanced battles(AmariaTitaniaHouse).

There is no problem with Reshiram, the problem lays in the fact that you could, unlike me, be unlucky enough to not have a team with you which can beat it. So you let yourself get beaten to get teleported back and walk all the way up there again once, IF the next team is the correct one. If not, you walk up there again and again, and that is not even considering you might not have enough cures with you in which case you would need to get back to heal your team before Reshiram or even buy new potions.

It was similar with Luna's gym - there was no PC in front of her so if it weren't for the fact that she was relatively doable and my team was just right, I would have been forced to walk all the way back to a pokecenter everytime I would edit my team. Why?

In devon corp, before facing ZEL, there is no PC or more than one healing. I had to walk back through all of Ame's puzzles again and again and again and again in order to find the right team and strategy. If I messed up the eletronic plates and got hit more than one or two times, I was forced to instantly go back because I couldn't afford to waste my few potions left before ZEL.

All of that and more situations all over the game could have been prevented by simply not pestering your players with pointless walking and placing a PC in front of tight fights. I really dont understand how this lack of comfort adds to the experience IF it is intended - having to walk long ways multiple times before you can confront an enemy is neither fun nor does it make reborn more difficult, it just makes it more tedious and that is such a shame. Much of my frustration for some of thouse mind-boggling hard battles only came from the circumstances surrounding them, time-consuming walking and puzzling.

Saying "Just save in front of those opponents" (Which I do) is not a valid argument - you can't design your game with the expectation of your player breaking the world's laws by using a meta-element(The saving function) and thereby canceling the system you have created. Your design-flaw is still there, even with the option to negate it to some extend. And that doesn't help with different teams of course. Just place a PC in front of those battles and we're all good, Ame. PLEASE. This game doesn't need this kind of playtime-stretching.

Quote

now, part of this... i'll politely refer to it as a "run-on sentence" is that you were frequently told to "git gud". while this statement, for aforementioned reasons, is, perhaps, true, this is not really an acceptable response to people looking for help. neither is telling someone to find the best flavor of cheese for the situation. some people don't like cheese.

I actually got good. I came into this game as an official game-plerp, never played online, and was wrecked by every small challenge. And now, 90 hours later, I'm on a whole other level and use the strategic possibilities of the pokemon-system at least to some extend. That's awesome, so I got good. Just not as good as some of you folks, and that's okay, because I'm not capable and not willing to dive into the Reborn-challenge as deep as some of you do. But I STILL want to enjoy the game (And I DO enjoy it most of the time by now) without an easy mode. Just a bit of comfort would help. Oh, and maybe one or two puzzles less, but thats just me.

Quote

so, instead, how about this: why are you here?

criticism is acceptable, but we both know that's not what this is.

if you are simply here to make noise, you will be asked to leave. if you wish to keep banging your head on a game you are clearly not enjoying, that is your own prerogative. do not scream at the rest of us while you do so.

First, to answer your questioon: Obviously, and countless times stated, because I enjoy this game, and it is too good to not share my thoughts about it. While my last few posts were received mainly with "Stop complaining, get better"-responses, there still are and always were great reactions which motivate me to keep going and which surprised me when I started this playthrough.

The question 'why are you still here' is of the same kind as the infamous 'If you don't like it, dont watch it!"-phrase, which makes no sense. But I DO want to watch it and I DO like it, just not everything about it and I want it to be better so I can like it even more!

I agree that this post up there wasn't criticism - well it was, but it can't be taken serious as a ragepost and that's really all it is. I blame 90 hours of reborn cracking me a bit.

My reviews, though? They are criticism. They may be highly subjective, polemic and insolent at times, but I really try to get my points across there and I explain every single thing with examples I talk about. I listen everything I like and LOVE (Which is more and more) just like the things which dribe me crazy. The first list tends to be overseen, or at least few people comment about them. The negative feedback, though, as it is natural, stands out and makes some of you angry with me, which I can understand. That just doesn't negate the fact that probably some of my points aren't wrong and that my problems with Reborn, perhaps, aren't all completely on me.

And that is really all I want to be understood. This game is great, but it is far from perfect. Nobody should pretend it is.

One last thing: I stated it multiple times, but "making noise", trolling a small pokemonfangame-community, getting a bit of negative attention really isn't worth 100 hours of game time, countless hours of collecting my thoughts on reviews which I hope can be entertaining or even helpful in the best case, and translating them in a few more hours so you guys can even read them as my site is really small and I mainly write them for you. It really isn't worth that. So you can be rest assured that that isn't my goal.

When I beat Titania(Arceus bless my ways) I will write my next little sheet and then I think it wont be so far to me finishing Episode 18. I wont give up now, no matter how many downvotes I get over there on reddit, it doesnt matter because I really wanted to beat this game and I enjoy the world and story enough to make up for the things which crush me inside and outside.

An easy mode is surely a great idea in any case to extend your reach and get a lot of players in the boat who just want to enjoy the storytelling-aspects of Reborn which Ame really nails. Most of the time. Lets not talk about that fetchquest again. Its okay. MY PTSD is coming back. Have to go. Thanks for reading my waaaay to long post, I hope I could make myself understandable.

Nice holidays!

Spoilers for Past-Desert-content!

Hey, fellow Reborn-kids!

I just wanted to express another moment of appreciation for this truly fantastic and well thought-out game. You really can see the love and time Ame has put into the gameplay at so many places.

Like, for example, isn't it absolutely fantastic in terms of enjoyment how you, after you meet the Ultra-Reshiram up in Titania's castle which of course one-hittes every single OxygenWaste of your miserable level-cap-trained team which brough you past the last ten badges, get thrown out back to the traincity and are thereby forced to walk all the way again through the trains , the grasslands, the castle and the tower back to reshiram just to get your worthless player-ass thrown out again simply because of the fact Ame decided with a sadistic against placing a PC and a healing-machine in front of the castle, which would have been way too obvious ands casual and I mean if you want something like that you can go f*ck yourself and your stinky casual-attitude and play sword and shield, right? I mean, have you considered just getting gud at the game? I bet THAT would solve things, why didn't you think of that sooner, silly? Genius! Haha! That's certainly not what we're here for, no, this forced way you have to walk again and again and again if you have to switch out your mon or lose and didn't save adds so much in terms of complexity, difficulty and most importantly fun and satisfaction when you have overcome the gimmick-legendary which has numerous boosts against you so the poor thing doesn't feel overwhelmed, by using strategizing and one of the countless ways this marvelous game gives you to overthrow your opponents... uhm... wait, no thats not right, of couse you beat Reshiram by using a cheesy and dirty trick you have googled before, but that's the point of this complex and climatic fight, probably seconds before you get your head smashed in by Lin, Titania, ZEL, the doctor, Arceus, God, a wild pikachu, some bug catcher and justmonika, but THATS THE POINT OF THIS GAME, like, right????

Let's all take another moment, but hopefully not the last, to appreciate our grandmaster Ame, the one, true queen of the iron throne and the eighteen kingdoms, who understands in every detail what a challenging and fresh experience for a pokemon game always should be like!

Aaaaahh, I LOVE THIS WONDERFUL GAME SO MUCH!! I LOVE ALL OF YOU!!! <3333

April 11, 2020

My game just crashed right in the middle of the fight against taka and I forgot to save after my twenty minute fight with adrienn.

why

April 10, 2020

Dont know, probably not. Right now I did my first try with zel and got every single mon one-hitted by his alakazam haha. Considering this was my best team and Im trapped in devon this will be a great fun in the days to come again...
