Quoted By:
Just finished Rescue Team's main story.
I was blown away by the first half. I didn't expect anything too serious given the target demographic, so I was shocked when it came to the point where the friendly town turned turned on you. They avoided using the word 'kill' but they weren't even subtle about the fact that that's what would happen once they hunted you down. The whole situation felt so much more tense and serious than I was expecting, and I really felt for the protagonists when the partner had a small breakdown over what would become of two of you as you ran out of places to run.
Then the writers shat out the back half of the plot with some nonsense about a meteor causing natural disasters and having your character disappear for 10 seconds. And how about when all the rescue teams banded together to take on Magma Cavern, but then rushed off ahead of you only to no-show and leave you to take on Groudon yourselves.
