The game we're playing is called Pokemon Soulstones, a game where you time travel, find items called...the Soulstones, and discover a major conspiracy. The game includes Gen 1-7 Pokemon, around 35 hours of content, and hundreds of 'regional forms' of...questionable quality. It does not feature gyms but rather a story about time travel n shiet.
It also has heavily stolen assets from Reborn and two separate tripfags gave up on it already. Third time's the charm?

>>55236976 Well overall it was a pretty great game, my only complaints were minor things like having to redo the entire dungeons when you lose to a story boss, alarmed being a bit annoying sometimes and evolving mons taking way too many heart scales
The main cast was pretty funny, there wasn't any character I hated seeing and in fangames that is a very rare plus
Gameplay was pretty fun, I have played some rougelites here and there and this was on the better end of them
Orevald !!uFy26nWSF72
Quoted By:
I do find it funny that this game of all things jokes about Alola getting rid of gyms and replacing them with trials, which are basically just discount gyms, meanwhile this game has 8 trainers with different type specializations that are "totally not gym leaders" which reward you with TMs and increase your level cap after beating them.

gotta say, by the time you're doing the Kyle mode in reminisciencia, the game does start feeling like it's dragging out what it has to offer and honestly the lack of the ability to go back to earlier dungeons just to farm some scales if you feel like your team sucks is also hurting

this actually is kind of a cute idea, don't think i've ever seen this before but yeah idk what the fuck is going on with this sea route and nor do i care, just looks to be more boring hallways tapering off into shitty deadends filled with annoying ass trainers christ man, both reborn and rejuvenation actually have decent water routes that work because there's a lot of islands and a lot to see and explore, why couldn't you steal the GOOD ideas from those games

i guess i can't really complain about the pacing of the bossfights if i'm just skipping over the shit level design

Libshits will never physically, spiritually or mentally recover from 2016 it seems, this game is already painfully tedious and dull, not to mention it's very clear the guy made it has pretty much no talent whatsoever and entirely built this game off of stolen assets, even the regional variants of this game are painfully similar to others I've seen in other fangames, the plot is also eerily similar to Empyrean at parts.
>>55237698 The pacing is still pretty shit, the game constantly just forces you to wander through massive routes or get through cave gauntlets with a fuckload of trainers and it has an autistically bloated encounter pool, which is so ridiculous that you have to constantly edit your PC's clock to catch the Pokemon you might want, then randomly here comes the boss fights outta nowhere, there's no buildup, intermissions, anything interesting, the game is just a tedious slog.

Whiteouts: 4
i didn't put any answer for the fairy type swanna on my team, and the different team shit caught me offguard when he pulled out a sun team
now here's an entirely different team?
not a horrible feature, but these fights aren't really so difficult that it feels like it makes much of a difference? unless the purpose is to get different fights on replays kek
>>55237721 eh i think you're being too harsh overall, by pacing i mean are the boss fights spaced appropriately which they are, and the boss fights have actually been telegraphed somewhat okay (at least it's not like ashen frost which tosses a kaizo fight out of nowhere without letting you fight some trainers beforehand for grinding)
don't get me wrong, game is still boring as fuck, but it's not horribly incompetent

>>55237746 from what i read on sh*tcord the game-z apparently struggles to play midi files, so the 'fix' of course is to download game.exe which runs worse or to just put up with the lack of music

I don't think I want to continue with this game, I hate dropping games midway through but I'm just horribly bored and stressed from work and this game like I've complained plenty already has a fuckload of issues, I wouldn't even mind it if there was any substance whatsoever, but there's none, I'll probably take a break and wait for when we reach the second one, hopefully it's better than this.

yeah you have to beat up every gang member and just try to avoid the non-gang people down here. another completely boring and shitty section, seems par for the course
also what are you doing here nigger, you're supposed to be raping my wife while i turn on jefre cantu-ledesma, not bleaching your skin

the gang leader i fought also used CHARIZARD

yep, sounds about right
>>55238833 doesn't help that every single 'story' involves going through some fucklong shitty route full of trainers with way too many mons so you get the next crumb of bullshit

>>55238979 isn't this game so well written?
>>55238982 you're a time police agent, you go back to the past because...reasons, you find out there's an evil society called the shadow council/watchers who want to use macguffins called soulstones to awaken the big evil bad guy, each soulstone is kept by a person called a soul keeper
you repeatedly fuck up and let the bad guys take the soulstones because everyone in the plot is a retard, you also find out the time police you're working for are kind of the same thing as the evil society except not really but regardless the time police are still evil, and once you fuck up and let the bad guys get a bunch of soulstones you decide to go beat up the evil society directly instead of trying to find all the soul keepers

I gave a quick peek at soulstones 2 to see how it turned out, it seems the dev behind these games learned fucking nothing and actually tripled down on his bullshit.>All of the Pokemon available are ugly as shit "regional variants", including the ones from Soulstones 1, which didn't get touched up at all despite desperately needing it >Political shit got even more blatant >An extremely schizophrenic time travel plot again >3 random new types get added, one ripped straight from Empyrean >Download page is on a shady site instead of relic castle for some reason >The MC and several npcs are niggers >Extremely long dialogue on basic npcs And I haven't even mentioned Dem*ce is involved in the game.......

it's funny that the lead dev apparently hates empire when 70% of that sounds 1:1 with empire, and what isn't sounds ripped from empyrean
and unlike this game, which, no matter how fucking awful it is, i can at least give credit that it IS a solo project and thus i can't expect that much, SS2 has a team on it
can't fucking wait
>>55239206 i think this game was developed over covid or something
it's like the developer forgot how people talk and interact when writing all of the dialogue

>>55239280 yeah i'm not really opposed to lifting sprites and tilesets because like...who the fuck cares...but when you lift entire maps it just makes me want to go replay those games rather than play yours
it's also funny that he stole a bunch of reborn maps, and the protags are the reborn MCs, but then he deemed to make most of his characters just FRLG sprites and also didn't seem to actually play reborn since he took none of the game's actual ideas
