  1. When Cass announced beta testing on the 17th she said there was a “month or two” left, so I wouldn’t expect release before mid-April.

    I wouldn't mind a full changelog once the game is fully released, though not sure how practical that would be without cutting too deep into spoiler territory. surprised you didn't axe the nature changer since mints are being implemented so my assumption is that mints are postgame i guess. kind of interested to see how the new short circuit and crystal cavern work exactly in terms how they cycle so that's cool. move relearner at your disposal in particular is hype. party quick swap mode am i reading that correctly? so i can swap pokemon directly from my party to pokemon in my pc from my party menu? would that also fully heal weakened pokemon from my party if i drop them in the pc and put them back in to my team? that seems like it would invalidate light shards and pokemon centers but i might be misinterpreting this. didn't realize resets can get even faster but i'm all for it. thanks to all the testers and dev team for streamlining gameplay and general qol for the rest of us, can't wait to not touch grass for the forseeable future. :)

    It says that it "burns consumable items" to access the PC remotely, so there would still be an incentive not to do it.

    can you think of any justifiable reasons why this might be the case?

    death? maybe at the tanzan cove raid?

     

    also, could you hold off the release, i'm on chapter 12 of rejuvenation and would like to finish it before e19

    just kidding i might finish before spring anyway and if i don't that's on me

    Five Protect/Destiny Bond Speed Boost Sharpedo holding Air Balloon each. Then 1v1 whatever she sends last.

     

    If someone wants to cheese, there is always a way. Even if I'm more curious about non-cheese strategies that the community will find.

    In Rejuvenation V13, you can't use cheese moves like Destiny Bond in designated "boss" fights. Perhaps that could be implemented here?

    I do hope that his gym battle is still gonna take place, because as far as I remember his battle is the only major one that takes place on the Corrosive / Corrosive Mist Field. My speculation is that his battle will be restyled into a Meteor boss battle at the gym, and the disgraceful uncovering will take place in the gym instead of next to the Pulse machine. The subsequent event can happen like in the original script.

    Yeah I saw someone on the Discord suggest to still have the battle, and just have it not as a gym battle. That would make a lot of sense

    Oh god I didn't want to click the bottom one because I knew exactly what it was gonna say, but I just had to see.

     

    Also I'm a little sad to hear that Corey and Kiki won't be gym leaders anymore (especially Corey since being a new leader is a big part of Aya's character, I can see how you can make it work for Kiki pretty well) but I'm sure you guys will make it all work nicely and make sense for the story.

    Following up on my other comment, I agree on Kiki, her role in the story as Sensei isn't really connected to her being a Gym Leader, they could even keep the battle with her as a requirement for the TM without it being a Gym battle. Samson's story isn't introduced until much later, and his vague background wouldn't really be affected by retconning him as having been part of Agate Circus from the beginning, instead of only having joined after Kiki's [spoiler]. As for Corey, story wise, I think it would take some more major changes to retcon him out of being a Gym Leader canonically. I think a much simpler and more consistent solution would be to have him still be a Gym Leader canonically, but have him refuse/not battle the player before [redacted]. Eliminating the battle with him would get rid of having to explain away not getting the badge without significantly affecting his or Aya's story otherwise. They could even keep the gym puzzle and sequence, and just have him ask you to follow him to the bridge when you get to him, without you battling him first.

    Did we change the earlygame story a bit for E19 so they are no longer Gym Leaders because we all decided we really didn't like the contrived excuses to not give you a badge? Also yes.

    I wonder how the storyline will be changed regarding this, e.g. Corey's [spoiler], Aya's introduction and Kiki.

    Adrienn is powerful. Xe doesn't always come to mind as one of the game's most difficult gym leaders,

    I actually found xem to be the 2nd hardest out of all of them when I played 3 years ago. After many dozens of failed attempts with my main team (didn't have a good counter to Fairy types), I caught the event Beldum at Lv1 and trained it up all the way to a Lv80 Metagross just so I could beat xem. My top 3 hardest gym leaders were Shelly/Adrienn/Charlotte or maybe Titania. Luna was the easiest because my strong Infernape was good against her (still took 3 attempts). I found the gauntlets at Fiore Mansion and the Glass Workstation to be the hardest battles overall.

    Regarding the time you went amiss and this whole "when will e19 be out?" thing? Don't you worry.

    Unlike many of those who are around here since the begining, i arrived pretty 'late' (i first played reborn at e15). But being honest? I've loved this game from the very first moment i played it, it really got into me. The story, the characters, the memes, the songs, all of it! So, i think i can speak in behalf of the community when i say: take your time. We'll be here to see the conclusion of it.

    Seconded.

    I found this game even later, 2 years ago shortly after e18 released, and it already feels like I've been waiting a long time lol.

    this was, in retrospect, a mistake.

    I dissent!

    Dear Ame, don't be so hard on yourself. You mention that working on this other project has refreshed you for the final stretch, and I consider that a very good thing. We want you at your best. Besides, it's not like no progress was made on Reborn during that time, as your loyal friends like Toothpastefairy and Marcello and your lover Cass have done much-needed work in optimization for speed, AI improvements, etc. This polishing of the engine is something that should have been done anyway, and now you get to finish the game with these improvements already in place for you to build upon.

    I also approve of the self-reflection and reorganization you have done to improve your general well-being. Remember the changes you made.

     

    Best Wishes,

    An Admirer
