Same goes for exp

Though porn games and get gud don't generally mix well together, think of the sound of one hand fapping :HideThePain:

Being able to name our protagonist would be good.

Less trash mobs and more sexy girls, pokemon with tits but even if you evolve the starter she doesn't do anything. Bunny girl in cave and gym leader are the only ones worthwhile.

And yet, you ignored my previous answer where I revealed all the mechanics (which other players figured out on their own without my hand-holding). None of it are obtuse except to people who have next to no experience with Pokemon games. Artificial difficulty? In what way? By making enemy trainers much tougher, smarter and able to use items to be on the same ground as the player? If that is artificial difficulty, then we clearly have two very different views on what it means. Good day.
I more found disdain with the way you used "git gud". It was rather... Disgusting.
It doesn't reflect what I believe to be the truest sense of the term.


As for artificial difficulty... Believe it or not, most fair games do not place the enemy on the same level as the player.
The reason is simple; they are many, you are alone.
In a Pokemon-style game this becomes more pronounced battle after battle, as the resources you require to match them will inevitably rise as time goes on. You simply cannot sustain such without a constant stream of resources to counter that.
Furthermore, most folks that have played Pokemon only really used consumable items (aside from Pokeballs of course) in unexpected 'no other choice' cases that would otherwise lock them into a game over.

Actual challenges aside, such as Nuzlock or however it's spelled... People just wanna have a good time.
Again, a challenge is fine, but giving every NPC you face the ability to pump Pokemon with potions is a cheap, unfun deal.
If you've ever read any kind of DM's manual, you'd know just how badly received an enemy healing all the damage you've taken the time and effort to inflict can be. It's a massive taboo and generally feels unfair.

Furthermore, healing items such as potions and those revive crystals in Pokemon are notoriously broken. Even Pokemon's devs admit as much. Those items exist as a fall-back for more tame gamers.

If you insist on the enemy being so broken on the basis of "matching the player", you have entirely dropped the ball on the balance between player and NPC. Your idea is certainly a pain in the ass... And sadly, no matter your intent, if you don't carefully consider how you build the game from the base up and just slap such broken gimmicks onto NPCs, folks will call it out.


Because you can't really change the minds of the players when you yourself fundamentally do not understand why Pokemon had such items in the first place... Nor can you understand that the majority of players rarely used them, as again, they were more of a crutch left for actual kids.
Because Nintendo recognizes the potential for such a thing as selective difficulty through in-game item inclusion.

I will give this a try just because ppl rant about it being hard.
I love when a game gives you a challenge, please don't let people convince you make it easy.

I know you wanna be the cool kid and all, and i don't mind that.
But you clearly never played (any)kaizo (successfully)before, when you struggle here or when you honestly tell me that you run into pacing-problems when you literally get oddish's with that kind of moveset, houndours or even that completely broken starter. (And let's not talk about the clear path with good pacing from the different points of interst like the cave) And now let's forget that you tried to compare a highly user-time-competitive rom, with an experienced team behind it - with a literal 'passion-hentai-game' made by one person.

This game has no bad design. It's just that you have to think 'out of the usual rom-box'.
Everyone complainin' in this thread basically knows nothing about pokémon or, admittedly, just joined for the faps.
And, honestly, if you guys can't spend 5 more minutes on 'breaking your pace' for additional grind, using items, which a lot of you are, for some reason, heavily against..?? Or simply.. do it differently that usual.. In that case, well..

I've gotta break it to ya', you won't be havin fun anytime soon. This game has a clear, visible path ahead and i'm sure the developer will be loyal in following it. Much to my delight, honestly.

If everyone would be having problems, strugglin' .. I'd be more willing in taking a closer look into actual pathing and pacing.. But if it's just a few inexperienced edgelords and fapkings that are having problems and the others don't.. Well.
I kind of .. Get that certain impression, y'know?
(Just made some exaggerated implications to drive that home)

-
Don't wanna come off rude, i'm just trying to be honest.
This was the last time i quoted or replied to you tho, not here to argue, neither are you, i hope.

it is virtually impossible for me to tailor the difficulty of the game to suit everyone's needs. If I made it easier, people who like the challenge will complain.
That's what difficulty settings are for :p
Easy = Less damage taken, More damage dealt, and Exp x 1.5
Normal = Balanced
Hard = More damage taken, Less damage dealt, and Exp x 0.5

It's also why you could choose a starter as different ones catered to different fans

People will complain anyways as in porn games they expect porn not a slow grind with a starter who only has 1 attack move.

will you ad loli waifumon in the future or only big-breasted ones?
Also will patreons be abele to waifuifai pokemon that are not humanoid at the start? (cophigrigus into a Pharao girl for example)
Ill wish you the best of luck regardless but I would like to know.

No lolis. And yes to your second question.

Hey Dev do you think adding male pokemon would be something you would consider in the future? I get that it's a big ask considering the enormous amount of time and effort that would take but it would be good to know if it's on the table at all. Regardless the game's aesthetic and UI looks pretty authentic. I wish you the best of luck with your game.

Depends on what you mean. If you're asking about Yaoi content, the answer is no. But of you're asking whether there will be scenes involving male pokemon, then yes.

Yep, I'm done with this one. Lost all my starter money and items trying to avoid getting shit on by the first fight due to absolutely horrible rng and in turn lost all interest in the game. Had high hopes and those faded fast.
just put on leftovers i had no trouble with the first fight was over in 3 voices, once your starter evolves and gets a broken typing and grande jete/draining kiss + the leftovers it becomes easy

Would you (the dev) be offended if I posted an edited script file for the people that wants an easy life without wanting to put any effort into the game? :unsure:

There will be also need for non-human pokemon fan-patch, as otherwise they will not get love

This could be neat. I'll give it a try and say what I think afterwards. People complaining about difficulty is kinda promising tbh. :ROFLMAO:
edit: ah, Youngster Jason. I see. Guess I'll be doing as bit of grinding then.
