Hey you guys might have good opinions on this - what is the best, least edgy but still somewhat adult fan game? I’m playing Xenoverse right now, and while I like it I hate the overworld sprites and music. Was thinking of playing Rejuvenation or Redalia System next. If all else fails I’m just gonna play Sea Glass.

Also forgot my Peridot review>The good The game's presentation is pretty neat and I do enjoy how comfy and connected the region feels. The progression is fairly unorthodox since you can do things in different orders but it's handled pretty well, the game heavily incentivizes exploration which is something I enjoy and the optional areas are typically pretty interesting and engaging, I especially love the lost world island and whole primeval and secretive vibe it has going for it, I hate how many fangames outright refuse to just put fossils as normal encounters via some creative means, and Peridot addresses that concern pretty well, the changes to existing Pokemon are pretty interesting, many moves and types were buffed in very good ways, many weaker or mediocre Pokemon stand out due to widened movepools, slightly higher stats or a cool niche, this is all despite the severe limitations of pre-physical/special split which severely hampers a lot of types. The gym leader designs and their ocupations mixing in with their gyms and their mechanics are really neat and I really enjoy it, even the last gym which has the dreadful mechanic of limited steps before you faint, something that Empyrean has made me utterly fucking despise is handled incredibly well in a non frustrating manner. The twist with the champion, the elite 4 designs and some of the very charming dialogue you can get by visiting the MC's mom, professor Maple and I think Emily at some points are really endearing and I very much appreciate them. There's a lot of effort put into this hack that I really can't help but appreciate a lot, the use of the betamons is something I also really appreciate but as I said quite a few times throughout my playthrough, I do think many of them aren't necessarily bad but they really don't stand out or do enough to be worth using sadly.>The middle grounds Like I just said, the betamons feel bleh, many of them just lack that quick that they need-
FormerlyAshime !vRZhOalgQo
>Third Mulcharmy revealed It's so over, yugibros. I found the cum farm.
Orevald !!uFy26nWSF72
and the beta evos are not well conveyed, many of them are not bad but I couldn't figure out necessarily how to get quite a few of them, though I feel this adds to the old charms of Pokemon of figuring stuff out by yourself. The lack of an evil team or a higher goal in the plot isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially how exploration heavy the game is, but it does kinda suck that the big plot of the thieves and the religious nuts just turned out to be a big nothing despite their seemingly big motives.>The stuff I didn't really like X items, they're dumb, the game is pretty well handled and I do understand why some features weren't touched, since they could break saves and the sort but gen 2 has some really obnoxious mechanics like the heavily limited item bag and very small PC space, something that makes focusing on catching mons pretty annoying. My final issue to some extent would be the puzzles, they're fairly esoteric, some are intuitive, but some are fairly obtuse and annoying, namely the over abundance of Strength puzzles, especially later into the game, I wanted to get Entei but having to do an extensive puzzle that late down the line for a legendary that gets outclassed by Charizard and many other Fire Pokemon (I'm assuming Entei didn't get major buffs though I may be wrong) sucks, I believe that's about it with my issues.>Final verdict The game is very solid and I definitely consider replaying it at some point or just doing the postgame stuff, it's just a good time and it makes me miss the old days of Pokemon a fair bit, I know numbers are arbitrary but I'd definitely give it a solid 8/10 and highly recommend the game if people are into older gens.

You need to do the 'sidequest' (it's not optional, you'll understand why soon) for the winter clothes, iirc. I don't think you actually have to wear them but you need them in the backpack or the MC will whine he needs to do more stuff in the city if you try to head up this route

Anyway "Dude WEED Lmao" but in like lowercase because it's supposed to be *subtle* is dead after like 15 turns of his gloom stalling by cycling sleep powders. Time to go...chase after moltres I guess? Biggest complaint with a few of these is they pull the trigger on legendary plots too quickly, usually.

>>56710183 I do agree with you that 'boss gimmicks' can be oppressive and annoying, but I wouldn't say universally so
What matters is how feasible it is to properly counterplay against the gimmicks without radically changing your team. I think Reborn offers a lot more flexibility than you give it credit for, especially since how in that game you can destroy fields, change them to your liking, use them against the bosses, so on. The bug gym in particular can have her forest burnt down or, with a little bit of grinding, can just be beaten down with sheer power since her pokemon are pretty weak. It's definitely very far from perfect though kek (FUCK gl*tch and underw*ter in particular)
Anyway, every gym boss in Unbound has their own separate gimmick, that cannot be removed unlike in Reborn, so just warning you now. Some are less oppressive and annoying than others (the 3rd, 4th and 6th gyms all have the worst gimmicks in the game, 6th is probably not too bad on lower difficulties though). Also, if you struggled with Shelly in Reborn, I very much recommend keeping the difficulty at 'Difficult' and nowhere near Expert

>>56710389 Nothing about Shelly's design is particularly well thought out, particularly given that she had built in counterplay to her "intended" counter and can also reassert her field at will. Or at least she could last time I played, and the methods to disrupt it were all highly limited, fairly weak, or she had glaringly huge punishes for meaning that attempting to do so outside of a starter that could do it was practically a trap option to bring. Which is the main issue with Reborn, Amethyst kept fucking Absolute Virtue'ing every encounter by patching out as many "unintended" solutions are possible. Combined with being an absolute fucking nightmare of a grindfest [hey you know how level grinding sucks? What if we introduced *negative leveling* as a mechanic because I'm sure that won't just invite an entirely new dimension of fuckery in game design from that point onward. All because we didn't want you to outlevel the bosses.]
Definition of fake difficulty right there. Yeah, it's doable, a lot of the time it's even still easy outside of one or two particularly freakish magic mixes, especially early on when you're starved for options and the developer can far more tightly control your ability to toolbox around a problem, but even after that point, Reborn isn't any fucking fun to play unless you're playing antagonistically and trying to break it's design intent as badly as possible by doing lunatic shit or abusing foreknowledge of what's coming to prepare insane one off counters 5~+ hours in advance.

You have a few ways to set sun (Castform and Cherrim, off the top of my head) to turn the field into a rainbow field if it's raining which completely fucks over her field advantage entirely.
You can use bug type moves against her as bug doesn't resist itself, and water types obviously do strong against her if rain is up, and you can use things like the seeds to give yourself a free shield.
None of her Pokemon are properly EV trained and all have terrible IVs, while doing the sticker sidequest chains allow you to get EV training items (which are buffed) where even a little bit of time spent gives you a huge stat advantage over her.
I do get your frustration, and there are terribly designed fights in Reborn, but there's definitely plenty of ways around the Shelly fight to make it not miserable
