  • You get One (1) (I) progress bar.


    Amethyst

    fine.

    i concede.

    you've worn me down--

    twisted my arm clean off--

    both of them in fact!

    i'm typing this with my toes.

    the white flag is raised,

    having been tirelessly goaded into it by the demands of an uncaring populace, night after night spent in fearful agony, whimpering in hidden corners that are yet unequal to the task set before them of simply shielding me from the slings and arrows of the greater internet community,* i accept i have no choice but to lament

    simply having no other choice, i deign to give you.... one progress bar.

     

    * none of this has happened or is even remotely true, everyone has been by and large supportive of my decision to yeet the progress bars, and i greatly appreciate y'all for that. i feel much better overall with them gone

     

    and feeling that way, this may be a mistake.

    if this ends up stressing me out, i will yeet this too.

    but we'll give it a try, because i accidentally started counting and, well-- the years start counting and they don't stop counting. 

     

    the progress bar is how many legendaries are accounted for

    as of posting-- 32/65

    almost halfway.

     

    why 65?

    76 mons are not asked for by the pokedex quest in E18.

    11 of them are ultra beasts and-- say it with me now-- ultra beasts don't get rights. 

    gen 8 is not real, and cannot hurt me.

    that leaves 65 genuine legends i have to include.

    for my sanity, and frankly, the sanity of everyone else, we have downsized from original expectations-- not every legendary is getting a full quest. but the significant majority are.

    in cases where they don't get a full quest, only the earliest of them are a walk-in-and-start-chuckin'-pokeballs type of deal. there will be more on what else is entailed instead in a future post.

     

    so e19 will be released when we hit 65 ?????!??!

    no,
    no
    look at me
    stop that.
    stop that right now, you goddamn son of a beautiful person (probably)

    i appreciate your hypothetical passion but the answer is no

    a big, honkin' neon red no
    the kind of no that your mom gives you after she talks to my mom and asks if you can come over

    the kind of no that you wish you could get after hearing nothing from the last ten jobs you applied to

    the kind of no that means no and you respect it without making a scene 

    nope.

     

    there are going to be things i want to do after the legend quests-- other things i need to do.

    possibly a lot of them, idk-- i'm not looking that far ahead because if i think about it i will take 2d8 psychic damage

    but what this whole legendary quest/progress bar thing is is the most significant obstacle before E19 can be finished or released.

    when the bar is full, that does not mean E19 is finished-- it means it can be finished. 

    until then, all bets are off.

    i'm biting down and just trying to make it through one week at a time. 

    thanks for sticking with it, loves.

    When i started reading this i was "WTF? who's the a-hole talking shit to Ame?" But then ive read it was a joke and got me relieved lol.

     

    Ame, you know we are your greatests supporters and we are here for you and will wait as long as needed to. I prefer to wait another 2 more years to get a game with the same level of excellency we have these past few years than a half baked shit.

    For those reading, please do not harass Ame or any of the other devs if the bar gets full and e19 is still not in alpha/beta testing. This won't apply to most people since most people are quite respectful but there's always that one person that doesn't show respect (don't be that person).

    Yes, sadly, there is always one Fern.

    Thank you for the post. But now I am sad. 

    Not because of just one bar or that E19 isn't out.

    But because of what you wrote about the job applications and I relate to that at an astronomical level.


    And now Im sad.

    Hey, don't sweat it everyone is struggling and being a dev is a hell of a job. So we will be sitting like good lads and gals and comrades making merry while we wait. 

    Also I'm leaving this song here so you can get 1d12 bardic inspiration dice

    It's one progress bar more than I expected! And take your time - as much as I love Reborn, there are other games out there. And not rushing it just means the finished product is likely to be better, right? We can wait - and I can't tell you what to do, but you should probably ignore the complainers.

    In all sincerity, waiting is something I can put up with. Maybe Ame doesn't see them, but there are people who care more of how she feels than when the game will be out and what it will look like. It's called "altruism". I too wish that people could pay more attention on what I became during periods of invisibility instead of worrying about what I'm supposed to work on when I'm not here. This is the reason why I've decided to keep a low profile since July 2020 with my written run for example. Yet, for some reason, something keeps binding me to this community. The reality is, I wouldn’t have become the man I am now if I didn't join Reborn's forum four years ago and focused my attention on this atypical game made by Ame and her team. All this to say, don't give up. True supporters exist, you're not alone in your ordeal!

    Well after reading the whole post, I can relate a bit myself within the whole situation with all honesty, as I was once used to be more... obsessed with being popular, that I screwed up big time last year. And I did a lot pressure to the devs of my favourites without realizing it and I got in trouble for it😓

     

    I'm still a bit of delusional with things I like and try my best to see the difference between reality and other stuff. Keeping my limits and a kinda low profile helped me to develop myself to a more honest person. Yes, I'm still regretting for my mistakes and I can't take them back now, but I'm doing my best for it📝📑📑

     

    And as a creator of a Au project, I can emphasising how you recieve pressure and how it's affecting those, how doing those things we love and like. You still feel pressured and want to continue with your work..

     

     

    So yeah, please to all of the people out here, let Ame and the other developers (be it for an another fan game) take their time to put their effort into them. Don't pressure them and don't think to annoy them, before you'll get blocked or even worse.

     

    Trust me, you don't want this, so please be patient and nice to them, okay?🙏🏼

    For me, just reading these blog posts from you and Cass is more interesting than any progress bars or completion percentages.

    The game will be released when it is ready. The post was hilarious.

    I understand about the legend quests too. It will be really hard to have 65 quests for all mons. So I don't care if some of them are like just there.

    Whatever you decide to do, know that we will always support you.

    Does it mean that the 9 remaining UBs won't be in the game, or that they just won't get their specific quests?

    Good things happen to people with patience. Or

    Bad things happen to people who do bad things against people with patience.

     

    Everybody should be patient. Trust me, it can get you a long way and is always worth it. Rushing things jeopardizes many things, too.

    Good luck. Kolay gelsin. Wish you patience. But not too much. I don't think you need to be told this, but I think it might be worth saying it anyways: nothing is ever going to be perfect. Don't keep adding stuff to a) make it perfect or as near as possible - never gonna end, and/or b) to procrastinate the dread of having Reborn end - whether this is due to the uncertainty of what Game Freak/Nintendo might do to the game, or due to the uncertainty of not knowing what you're gonna do with the bit of your life where Reborn used to be (and your new game won't fill it. It will be a different thing. It will create and occupy its own space, not Reborn's) or something else.

     

    It's been a long time - half a life nearly. It ain't gonna be easy. You know that. But it's gonna have to end at some point. Don't drag it out more than needed, cause it's gonna drag you down. Don't do that to yourself. I don't want you to do that to yourself. You've already given us something great, and beyond what anyone could have asked for. And if we're not happy with the end result, well, then, fuck us. But we already love the game. We already love you. The end of the game aint gonna change that, even if we part ways afterwards.

     

    And when the time for the character of "Reborn" in the story of your life has come to an end, as they say, let your darlings die.

    Wait... 65? I'm still a tad confused on the "official" legendary Pokemon and what technically counts as them. Is there a list specifically of what 65 is referred to here?

    I assume that it means legendary + mythical Pokémon.

     

    I might be a bit late but:

    Gen 1 : Birds + Mewtwo + Mew = 5

    Gen 2 : Beasts + Lugia + Ho-oh + Celebi = 6

    Gen 3 : Titans + Eons + Weather + Jirachi + Deoxys = 10

    Gen 4 : Lake Guardians + Creation trio + Cresselia + Darkrai + Shaymin + Manaphy + Heatran + Regigigas + Arceus = 13

    Gen 5 : Swords of Justice + Forces of Nature + Tao + Meloetta + Genesect + Victini = 13

    Gen 6 : Aura + Diancie + Hoopa + Volcanion = 6

    Total before gen 7 : 53

     

    Gen 7 is a mess because legendaries can evolve but we have :

     - Guardian deities, Necrozma, Magearna, Marshadow, Zeraora : 8

     - Cosmog evolves into Cosmoem, which evolves into either Solgaleo or Lunala : 4

     - Sometimes Type:Null and Silvally are considered legendaries, but they are already in the game so I guess they don't count.

     - Sometimes Meltan and Melmetal are considered gen 7, sometimes gen 8. I think they are officially gen 7 now, but since they can't be played in Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon, I don't expect them in Reborn.


    Note: Phione should also count as legendary but is already in the game.

    but it's just the scripts!

    i never know what's worth mentioning.

    anyway we might redo the battle system.
