>>21197877My Sm4sh pre-order came in the mail and I got sidetracked by that, but I'm back.
Chikorita tells me how we have been officially recognized and gives me my "Rookie Badge," which I guess is how they're spreading badges, as promotions.
I go to the guild, led by a Gardevoir, and i'm told to investigate some boulders blocking a path as my next mission.
One thing I notice is that the custom spritework in this game actually isn't that bad so far for the most part, and Jagold takes logic into account with things like the clock being a sundial, and the merchant only having Berries. I feel like more effort was put into this hack so far than the last. The problem is the writing so far has been just terrible, worse than the last.
Especially the attempted banter between my two teammates. It always consists of
>Chikorita doing something annoying like singing>Torchic tells her to shut up>Chikorita goes "I'm just doing [x].">Torchic calls her annoying>Chikorita continues doing the annoying thing>occasionally Mmmmchu says "Sheesh" in responseSo yeah, going through the next dungeon.
