Fucking hell, this was rough.
Like Wagie said, Soulstones 1 & 2 are still worse, but the fact that it feels pretty close tells you all you need to know.
>What I liked
The portraits were a very nice touch to the game, even if they weren't really consistent at all, especially once you start getting past earlygame. I hope that they at the very least fix up the spotty placement in the next update.
Earlygame Mono/Dualtype pokemon accessibility is always a really good thing to have. Any Fangame/Romhck devs who claim to support monotypes should follow Empire's example and have at least 6 mons available before gym 1 (Fuck you, Detergant)
The music selection is generally really good, save for maybe ~3 songs. It's a much needed breath of fresh air after either constant Glitchxshitty or just unmemorable, really meh soundtracks most fangames have.
>The grey area
While I liked quite a bit of the Pokemon changes, there were a lot of really autistic/shit ones as well.
Tha same applies to all the autistic moves and effects as well. While I think they're an interesting part of Empire that makes it stand out from the other Rebornlikes, holy fuck, a lot of them are autistic as fuck.
I like that you can actally use the Sword Regalia in the last couple of chapters and get more info abot things, but the drawbacks for using them at the moment is way too fucking much. Be it retarded puzzles getting even more retarded just because, or basically locking you out of the mega ring unless you're a Royalefag.
