>>53970802Enjoyed the other games in the series so the difficulty wasn't a problem for me. Early game is definitely toned way down. I think most anons in here might even be able to get past the first few gyms. Last 3 gyms are definitely more on par with reborn, which was refreshing. Optional bosses gave me a hard time too, which is great. Perfect balance of hard and easy, without being frustratingly hard or boringly easy.
Maps are nice, but they aren't yours. I don't like it, but I know why you stole them. If I had to pick between a six gym demo with stolen maps or a one gym cancelled project with unique maps then I'd probably do the same thing as you.
Flaws I think you should work on:
Some buggy move routes.
Change all the music in the game to Pokemon music (what the fuck am I listening to?)
Too many words for a Pokemon story.
You don't get to pick your starter until gym 5+ but that should be the first thing you do in a Pokemon game, obviously.
