And yet, this game has absolutely NONE of what you just complained about. The only possible 'grinding' this game has is when you do the poaching side quests that requests you submit specific mons. But then again, its an OPTIONAL quest, so its still not part of the 'grind.'
Dude, I haven't even played the game nor was it implied in any way. Was just commenting on the devs cringy remark. A turn based RPG game advertised as hard is usually an avoid (unless free ofc)

And I as the developer, had to face cringy remarks like your original comment for the past 6 months. I'm very thorny, but imagine being in my shoes lol. Spending countless hours balancing the game and reducing grind only to hear some rando who hasnt played the game think its a grindfest annoys me.

Either way, you can see it for yourself firsthand. I imagine you can prove it for yourself through actual experience and not surface level assessments.

Asha's hot spring event only happens if you have a high enough relationship. You have to talk to her in the beachside cafe after your meeting with Prof. Wormwood. Invite her on a date and she'll show up at the hot spring.
Welp oof, thought I had done all the events correctly and whatnot but I get no options to ask her on a date...guess I messed up something. :eek:

Let me guess, you handed the pervert in instead of asking asha for the nude pic? If you did, its the most common mistake a lot of people make. You're supposed to show the perv her pic, but refuse to give it to him.

Sometimes, the neutral path is the right path. Being 'good' isn't always the answer.

Gotta say, I don't see what everyone whining about the game being too hard is on about. I mean some of the fights can be annoying, but it's easy enough to cheese the AI and SINtax was nice enough to give us possibly the most broken starter ever

Well, after many many hours of talking to players either through here or in the discord server, I have determined that these players are in 1 out of 3 categories of people:

1. People who don't play pokemon, have no idea how to strategize, no exposure to any competitive pokemon builds.
2. People who only play mainstream Pokemon games, where they just pick super-effective moves and get a hernia if it doesn't OHKO.
3. People who didnt actually play the game and just complain for the sake of complaining because apparently I'm not the type of person to mince words and cover everything with a thicc layer of honey.

Take your pick, they fall somewhere in between. Also, good to hear that you're doing well.
