[Spoilers] E16 Status Discussion


Amethyst

Recommended Posts

The thing is, considering it coldly, than the meteors can't possibly reunite all the keys during the next episode (it's true, we would have to go and pay a visit to Tania off in the desert, and that's highly unlikely right now). Then... how will they manage to destroy the city?

EDIT: double ninja'd

That's so... terrible. I didn't knew you liked pokémons that way Ame :T

btw rip jan

Team Meteor will probably have some kind of epic plan to bring everybody that has one of the keys to the same place.

It will probably involve Lin and lots of explosions.

We might battle Titania for the bracelet on the future, if Team Meteor doesn't steal it first.

vinny i like your idea for the plan sounds like they will kidnaped someone to bring everybody in one plase

I think that if they don't kidnap Amaria again (sigh), Tania is stubborn enough to stay at the desert whatever it happens to the world.

Hardy is still family, I suppose. If we don't get Aya back, Hardy might give in and try to go after her himself and bam, #Kidnapped.

And then that might convince Titania (Not immediately) to show up.

And she probably would show up, just to kick Team Meteor ass. And maybe get Hardy back.

But am I the kind of dork who takes her laptop to a convention to work on a game instead of socializing?

You bet I am.

Jan's also entering the fray now so he'll be helping out with animations, along with Inuki I think, so hopefully we can pick up the pace here a bit soon.

Socializing? What is this sorcery you speak of?

And hopefully Jan and Inuki won't lose too much of their sanity working on these.

What ever sanity Jan has was lost to the project known as Rejuvenation.

I think she'd get Florinia, Julia or the player to help considering she knows what they want...

Though I have a feeling after travelling to Reborn to fight Meteor and shenigans, we will probably also go to Calcenon, beat PULSE, maybe enter Labradorra......which means Saphira!

Labradorra seems a bit much, as Reborn City is going to be touched up thanks to Adrienn's efforts.

That is pretty much why I think Adrienn is next. Xe is the only gym leader that doesn't required a new area to be mapped (except for Amaria but she has a bit much going on at the moment).

There's no need for a separate release. In fact as cleanly as I have them organized it would be entirely practical to put up an animation patch where people can just download them and put them into the game in the meantime.

I -was- planning on staggering the animations through the next several episodes. But honestly, as long as this is taking, I'm sort of close to saying 'dont expect E16 for literally ever' and then spending the next X months making -all- move animations to be released with E16 instead of just the redone existing ones. It'll be the same amount of time in development in the end, so I don't see much of a reason to not just get it out of the way, aside from the fact that it'll mean an awkwardly long gap between E15 and 16. But then, I already said E16 will take forever, so what's another spoonful of eternity on top of the previous life sentence?

I'm not decided either way. Those are just my thoughts right now. I'm interested in what others think as well.

For now, Brick Break.

Marco can't hog the stage all the time. Say hi to Dan's Manectric. ...Let's not question what I've done to his Pokemon without his consent.

This week will be slow for me for personal reasons. Aside from my cousin moving in with us and starting school, I'm heading to Nan Desu Kan this weekend so I won't be able to work so much.

But am I the kind of dork who takes her laptop to a convention to work on a game instead of socializing?

I'd like to weigh in on this!

Personally, I wouldn't mind (heck, I'd prefer it) if you decided to finish all of the animations in one go.

However, it's important to be mindful of the development time. If you spend too much time without an update to show for it, a good chunk of players begin to lose interest and wander away from the game, possibly never to return.

...Although I guess you're not making any money from the players in this case, which theoretically gives you less of an inclination to care about how bored a portion of the fanbase becomes. Besides, the loyalists and forumgoers will always stick by your side, and the eventual update won't fail to bring in new players.

I don't think time should matter too much. I mean most games pretty much wait until the final release to put out a game. That's usually a year or two of development time (sometimes more). Just look at Xenoblade X. That game took them 4 years to make (though I'd say more). I know some people won't have the patience like you say, but many, many people are patient. I'd rather say for someone to slow down and take their time then to rush something.

This is a fangame though, amidst a seas of many many fangames. Unlike Xenoblade X, a lot of players will simply forget about it if it takes too long and play rejuvenation or Resurgence or something instead. DeHype is real, and really bad.

But the fanbase on this game is that big that it won't lose too many people plus I think Rejuv has references to Reborn within the game I think. Nickaboo is also coming back in a few months so if he decides to continue his LP of Reborn then then that will draw new players in as well as keeping older ones interested.

Going to quickly dive into the "Where Are We Going Next?" line of thought before I most likely vanish for eons again. Obviously, we're going back to a...well frankly, a reborn Reborn City. I don't think it'll be all sunshine and rainbows, but it'll be nicer and you know...less horribly mangled by cracks in the ground. Thus, logically, the next big area we'll probably go is ALSO somewhere in Reborn City, or very close by. Logical answers: The desert(which I can't for the life of me remember the name of), or somewhere in the Devon Corp. We have 5 Gyms left at this point: Amaria, Titania, Saphira, Hardy, and Adrienn. Most likely victims leaders to show up next are definitely Adrienn and Titania. Amethyst has time and again said that Episode 16 is going to take a metric ton of time to finish, so I'm guessing this is finally the episode we beat up two Gym Leaders.

Alternatively this is also an episode where we have like 30 new sidequests, magikarp is available again, and the world comes to an end as we know it.

It's been a long while since I've lasted played the game, so forgive me if this is already included, but once the animations are added, will there be a "turn off / on move animations" setting in the options menu?

(That is, if their isn't one already.)

In fact, I believe that Ame stated that, regarding to the main plot itself, this episode would even be lighter than 15. So I'm afraid that only 1 leader by now.

Yeah, I think E17 will give us two but given the remapping of the city and the animations we'll only fight one this time.

Perhaps it will just be Adrienn this round, then as we're returning to the city, it makes a bit more sense for us to go to Labradorra and Ametrine for Amaria and Saphira, then probably back track to Agate. Or the other way around. Then the desert, then the E4, champion. Before the E4, Meteor dies. sth like that.

ye?

Pretty much. I wish we can battle whatever is putting people in Agate to sleep soon.

My theory for this, slightly updated from what it was during the summer:

E16: Adrienn, exploring Reborn city, taking out PULSE Earthquake (Dugtrio?) underneath Devon

E17: Titania then Amaria, exploring desert and getting access to Agate

E18: Liberating Agate City, Hardy

E19: Liberating Calcenon City, Saphira, then the end game.
