Real talk? This game is fun as fuck. Just went back and played it again after like 6 years and it was definitely a lot more enjoyable than it used to be, and I had like 600 hours on it before. I can honestly say I think it's more enjoyable than Explorers. You guys feel me?

It really gives me no reason to play it since I have Explorers of Sky which is better in every single way

What? You actually liked the friend areas?

Never played mystery dungeon, but was intrigued by gates to infinity before it was released. Picked up Blue rescue team to see if the series was interesting. I think I only put about 4 hours or so on it before I stopped playing, shit was terrible. I think I just beat Gengar's gang in that forest or whatever. Anyway, am I missing something? I just don't get it with these MD games.

I loved buying the friend areas. Explorers definitely casualized the recruiting method.
Did you know that recruiting pokemon had higher chances in rescue team as a trade-off for the friend areas? Now I have to sit my ass down in a dungeon killing the pokemon I want over and over because they lowered all of the chance.

The other anon is correct, once you beat zapdos the story really picks up.

And before someone tries to counter my casualization statement, trading off higher recruitment ratings for no friend areas is not casualization.
It's like having to EV train a pokemon without the Power Items because the Power Items were too expensive and annoying to purchase.

That ol' argument again.
What else are you going to spend your Poke on? You don't really have to buy things from the Kecleon shops/Link shops since everything they sell are common in dungeons/quest rewards. Playing through Explorers of Time I had a shit ton of money just sitting in my bank collecting dust because they took Friend Zones away.

Is that seriously what you think of me? I was just saying the overall gameplay was a bit more enjoyable, it had nothing to do with the story at all.

But while we're on the subject of story, I feel Explorers has way too much fodder for dialogue, and in some cases it just has way too much dialogue.. That does actually involve the gameplay, and quite significantly at that.

Opinions are everywhere. It's either shit, or it's the best out of the series.

Haven't played it (yet), but from the demo I think that it's okay. My only gripe is the lack of content compared to Explorers, but from what people are saying, the story's a lot better.

It's not bad, But it's not amazing either. Some of the biggest complaints were the lack of Pokemon and a heavy focus on Gen 5 Pokemon, Only 5 Starters and no Quiz, Literal Handholding by giving you a fucking Legendary Pokemon for a Teammate early on, and no Hunger.
Though it has some pretty strong feels.

I bought this game the other day to be honest and I'm getting frustrated already. Everytime I do that survey I end up with Squirtle or Meowth. I want to be Pikachu damnit! Other than that I have high hopes for this game considering I've like every Pokemon spin off game I've played thus far.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who had an easier time with Dunsparce than Virizion in terms of partners

Honestly Virizion's stats and movepool really weren't outstanding and all of its moves were completely different from everyone else's, so she wasn't able to level up any of them

Anyone else feel that development of that game was rushed? I still enjoyed it but I feel if the game had a bit more developement time it could of absolutely been the best game of the mystery dungeon series.

Hopefully sales were good enough to not completely kill the series so the developers can try harder and spend a lot more time on gen 6th's mystery dungeon game.

Funny how people complained about the lack of surveys in gates to infinity when I'm sure most people just keep taking the surveys until they got their desired pokemon of choice.

It's a shame they took away the fun from being a thief by making Kecleon invincible in Gates to Infinity. Which means you can't go on the lengthy journey to recruit one of those fuckers.

I actually remember playing this seven years ago, though lately a couple of threads here led me to play Explorers of Sky. I tried in an emulator at first but ended up loving it, so I got myself a physical copy. I only finished the game three days ago but I absolutely loved it.

From what I remember though the story from Rescue Team took forever for me to care, and the music wasn't as memorable as Explorers. Is the gameplay any different? Explorers left me wanting more, but I recall having a mixed time with Rescue Team with things I enjoyed and disliked.

Having just come out from Explorers with more things that I enjoyed rather than dislike, is Rescue Team worth my time?

OP here, I wouldn't recommend it
The game has its perks but if you already have Explorers I would suggest going for Gates next instead
It's just that overall Rescue Team is more difficult, has less dialogue, and has Wish Cave, and those things definitely add to the enjoyment

Or you can just not use Virizion but I don't even think it's the fact that she's a legendary that's the problem - it's that she's level 20 when you get her when you and the partner (and emolga for that matter) is only 12 and Dunsparce a measly 6

Actually I picked it up again, and I would actually agree it wasn't a great idea on my part. Though really I am at the point in the game where I just arrive at Mt.Blaze, but this took me three soul sucking hours for it to be more entertaining and fun rather than frustrating. I think actually me dealing with those three hours was way to much I was burned out waiting I just stopped a while ago to give it a rest.

I'll agree the game is fun as can be, but it definitely could have paced itself better and done with a little bit more of variety. (For comparason the first five dungeons in Rescue Team all looked and sound the same, in contrast with Explorers different take on it.

I'll just end Rescue Team, and then move on to Gates Hoping a similar setup to Explorers.
