Have you tried to get a beldum i have a metagross on standby as well as a good few other mons but i try to go for as much type diversity as possible meaning if i want to use metagross i have to box the mawile u see in my signature but that dont happen anymore unless im really annoyed by some trainers, tho u could argue against that entirely as the sylveon also in my signature is part of my main team as well, tho those 2 are forever on my teams no matter what for personal reasons and anyone who has finished v11 will know why edit: the only 2 out of that team i ever really rotate out anymore are swampert and golurk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Damn. The one time I could sign up for betas and it's closed. Oh well. I think it's fortunate leaks haven't happened to the degree they could have until this point because that stuff can go south fast. Part of me wants to volunteer to make the Rejuv synopsis just to make sassy protag 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enderowl Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I hope this time, this version doesn't have that glitch were it had the SpriteResizer error, because that was annoying and it made me wait until Version Patch 11.3 to let me play the game.

If it were me, I'd go Bravely Default writing full passages to read for a mix of reading and amusement. It might just be generic short passages. I would say 8-10k word length is a good estimate as you don't want to be too thorough but not top unclear for people who don't touch this for months.

Dave9 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I hate to ask, but are alpha and beta part of V12 or potential sidegames like where love lies? After all, Jan said it himself (I vaguely remember that if where love lies was successful then he might consider making other games like that) Edit: The reason for the sudden questions is that I wasn't on this topic when alpha and beta became a part of development Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myrrh Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Alpha Test: a trial of machinery, software, or other products carried out by a developer before a product is made available for beta testing. Beta Test: a trial of machinery, software, or other products, in the final stages of its development, carried out by a party unconnected with its development. Essentially, both acts of testings are used to ascertain any problems that may exist in a given product. In this case, they are being used to discover any issues that may be present within the script within the games. Such as events working as intended in that they transition correctly, don't crash the game, or lead to any unintended circumstances. Examples would be the Rift Garbodor bug where it has the player walk into the wall rather than confront Garbodor again, having the map become unresponsive after losing a battle, and the Pokeflute event. They can range from a simple syntax error to forgetting a couple lines of code. So really, they catch the most obvious bugs so that the product comes out in a state that is most put together. Think of it like peer reviewing someone's paper to check to see that it functions well as a paper. (These testings can also help touch up the dialogue for this as well.)

Rising Emperor Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Dave9@ I recommend you look up Acedy, who is making a side story similar to Where love lies, called The Dearest Memories. It's a five chapter game detailing the events of Meila's life from her adoption to her leaving with spaceia and Tiempa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT is pretty behind though. It's the ridiculous amount of time travel that confounds me - especially since there's a lot of time between the version releases and a whole bunch of characters. 5 hours ago, kenzie said: I'm going to be restarting my save and using Infernape as a starter on normal difficulty once V12 comes out. What should I do with my team? Ignore by V10 team below, just base ideas Using an Infernape in my current run right now. I don't have an official six Pokemon team - but some I've found to be extremely useful: Sawsbuck, Crobat, Vivillion. Lanturn is great as we have access to slow Volt Switch.

Fallen Savior Morgan Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) 10 minutes ago, eternal.irony said: Where do you get the Beldum you have to collect card key shards (might wanna look up how to get them) then you go to the secret shore hidden tube with a tree sticking out (look for a guide) and enter the shards then you have to capture the shadow beldum. But there is a catch to purifying it, u need to have 4 pokemon that are weak to the same type the pokemon are (ex: ghost,dragon) also put them in the purify chamber, 4 ghosts or 4 dragons, you have to be very far in the story to access all of the card key shards Edited June 26, 2019 by Harsh Bhakta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the ridiculous amount of time travel that confounds me - especially since there's a lot of time between the version releases and a whole bunch of characters. Can't speak for Derog but I'm trying to get it done slowly in this busy time (I'm at the last Eli and Sharon fight right now) but my inability to not go on a rant slows progress down. I blame General Saki on that (that's your only tease from me). After this year things will probably speed up as I finish up schooling (that and a job drain time). As for time travel, I probably will complain and explain it a lot. It's not time travel but The Longest Journey (it's a game made in the 90s) is a great example to demonstrate how to handle characters across two different times. I also don't follow Rejuv closely enough to really produce a guide or a plot explanation because some stuff happens on a different branch and important bits of info gets lost into the void of explanations. I can't even tell you the name of the girl whose apartment we're crashing in kind of bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magus543 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Let's avoid anymore DOUBLE LEFTOVER Florges. I still go to therapy for it. Speaking off, why is it when a trainer is our battle partner, they are utterly incompetent and are at best, meat shields for us to set up, but when we fight them SUDDENLY they become a challenge and usually have unfair advantages and better AI. Compare and contrast fighting with Erin against the Rift Regi, to Challenger Erin. It's also like Shelly from Reborn. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melia especially was disastrous in the battle vs Geara and Zetta. She either got oneshotted or would use the worst move possible.
