personally I like it mostly because its not just another 'MC does everything while rivals only show up to battle you and advance the story and then fuck off' like most Pokémon fangames are but I understand why a lot of people dont like it (if you dont like the characters then youre absolutely gonna hate Rejuvenation)
still sad they removed the Extreme difficulty mode because they dont know how to balance shit

A potentially good game bogged down by tranny nonsense, cartoonish levels of edginess, trash story and shitty balancing. Nevermind it was never going to be good.

It's a great game but you're on Vp. Just need to see the other replies. Most of them are just 'trannies bad' like one personally ruined their life.

Pokemon rejuvenation has a good story. Good graphics, nice forms and good characters.
But if you're not into story heavy games, then it's not for you.

Even this game's own subreddit, which is filled with bootlickers thinks the game's story and progression are shit.
I don't even know where to start with describing how deceptively awful this game is, it completely neglecting Pokemon as a whole, or the fact the game has essentially become a patreon scam, with the two main devs being a bitch with a jewish surname who goes on jihad's against anyone who so much as thinks of taking inspiration or copying a single asset from Rejuvenation, to the point she'll try to get them ousted from every single place in the internet, this is made even sillier considering this bitch is working on a project that is a literal massive ripoff, made from an IP she doesn't own, the other main dev is a literal thieving nigger who not only made Rejuvenation as a ripoff of Reborn, but doesn't have a single creative idea in his head, can't write worth shit and whom has been delaying finishing his game as much as possible for over 10 years to milk the dumb retards still stupid enough to shill his game on patreon for as much money as humanly possible. I remember back when the LP thread was still around, a tripfag compared this game's dev cycle to Yandere Simulator, and I can definitely see why.
This game has effort put into it, which is the saddest part, but fuck it's bad, in later chapters it becomes nothing but fucking cutscene hallways with no gameplay that would put even gen 7 to shame, chapter 15 can easily last over 7 hours, it has almost no gameplay, has the cringiest reddit/tumblr writing imaginable, it's a shitty ripoff of Danganronpa and said chapter literally adds nothing to the story whatsoever.

It’s so fucking good man

I understand why people have gripes with the game but I can’t help but still love it. The places, the characters, the atmosphere, the battles, all of it is so good. If I had to hate on one thing it’s that the music is kind of bad? Not the overworld music it’s kino, but the wild battle is lofi and it really doesn’t fit, it got to the point where I just replaced the music with some other fangame’s, aside from that I love it.

>>58283755
It has solid gameplay and looks very nice but it has an absolute horrid story and every recent decision and update made has been in favor of propping up said horrid story to the point where the gameplay has become substantially worse
Said story also has nothing to do with Pokemon even remotely and is extremely bloated and pointlessly long

You are better off playing Deltarune, Danganronpa, etc. whatever else the dev is heavily drawing upon as an influence as they are considerably better written and/or far more concise

V13 Intense was unforgiving but mostly reasonable since you were allowed to do pre-status shenanigans too (outside of Hazuki, who has NEGATIVE SPEED EVs, and Saki), the hard mode hacks for V13.5 are absolute cancer, full of Xen Mage bullshit, field changes don't work, and Splintered Stormshards doesn't work because they don't know how to make battles challenging without stat inflation.

>>58286585
Rejuv's story is shit but Full Moon (the game that stole assets from Reborn/Rejuv without credit) is somehow worse in all regards

>>58283755
Decent fangame if you don't focus too much on the story, Ruthless Pokemon are a better form of boss battle than the "lol just give it 5x the HP" in gen 9 but the game is desperately in need of having partner AI fixed. In V13 intense the enemies read your inputs, but you can't have the partners know what move you're using?

>>58287860
picrel is an actual sprite ingame, also Axis High was even more like Danganronpa in V-12 (aka Beta V12, aka the build of V12 that Jan had years ago and stopped working on around V7)

>>58288590
the issue is that you can't really just 'ignore' rejuv's story

there's way too much dialogue, way too many plot-focused segments where you're just entirely on rails and having to mash through dialogue that can take up to an hour if not even longer even if you're running at full speed, way too many long cutscenes before certain fights

you can feel neutral on the game's story (don't see how though, it's a colossal trainwreck) but it constantly shoves it in your face way too much

>>58288868
the entire community of difficulty fetishists that is slowly metastasizing seem to be able to completely ignore it easily enough

>>58291165
They don't ignore it, which is why the mass majority of difficulty autists play hacks with no story like Run and Bun or Radical Red because even they can't deal with the awful and omnipresent story in games like Reborn or Rejuvenation

>>58283755
Mid at best(and i'm being nice here) just like desolation, or reborn.
The story is awful (again, being extremely generous) and drags on for FAR too long and the difficulty trend is just getting boring and feel like a chore at this point.

it's not actually kris, one of the many things that were changed in the v13.5 rewrite were making the 7 protagonists, Flora, Florin, and Erin all have unique sprites in the Darclight Caves.

>>58292273
you've got it the wrong way around here my nigger, the majority of people playing run and bun are only doing it for clout because who the fuck actually wants to play a game where the concept of difficulty is synonymous with trying to play a fighting game with a controller held together with duct tape

actual nuzlockes (that don't have 999 rare candies hacked into the bag) are done for the love of the medium, shit's credibility went way downhill when that became commonplace

>>58283755
shit game desu. story was bad but still kept me interested until the retarded devs decided to add meta elements to it and the balancing is horrendous. the only upside is the visuals and the fact that i got to see this thing:
https://nuzlockeforums.com/forum/threads/1076/

>>58292332
no, i think i have it right. people play on the EXTREME difficulty modes or the SUPA HARD fan mods of reborn and rejuvenation, take videos of them beating EPIC bosses that are horribly designed but spam a dozen effects or have 50 abilities and teams full of megas, and then share them to show how 'based' they are on discord. it's still clout, just confined to a relatively tiny and much more mentally ill space. this is because no one outside of there wants to watch or play these long shitty story games on top of having to do all the calculator spreadsheet autism.

it's also why intense mode was removed from rejuvenation, because the dev didn't like the 'elitism', and all the people who engaged in that just fled to the shitty mods

it's good and challenging with a few cuties
later in the game the story seems to go a little insane though, I remember dropping before they released the good/evil routes
reborn was a bit better but the gay dude was a turn off
desolation was fun but no where near as fleshed out as both games
I wish they would drop all their assets so people that aren't fags can make some good essential games

reborn>rejuvenation>desolation

Fun fact, Jan aka Rejuvenation's dev already completed the newest version of Rejuvenation that was coming up, v14, and he's refusing to launch it yet despite drumming up hype surrounding it to force his shills on patreon to give him more money, this nigger gets payed nearly 2000$ a month from donations on goytreon and he sits on his ass without doing jack shit.

Desolation is way better than Rejuvenation and it's not even close even though the project suffered massively due to the main dev dropping out due to his life turning into a complete shitfest and due to him also having to put up with med school, which ate up all his time, the remaining devs took up the mantle with a few newcomers and they're trying to keep the project alive, but a lot of shit keeps going wrong for it.
Deso is also the only rebornlike as the old LP thread coined it, that not only doesn't have explicit faggot shit, but you also get to go on date with cute girls later in the game, you can even get a love confession from one of them.

It's been getting progress, just very slow progress due to the current devs largely lacking experience in areas and being undermanned.
We got a new waifu that I assume will be a Ghost type gym leader, a look into a few new areas and some really beautiful custom shinies for gen 9 Pokemon. The engine is also getting a massive upgrade due to moving to Reborn's current much more potent one.

>>58283755
it's terrible as a RPG and terrible as a visual novel, with none of those aspects being actually linked in practice so the awful hallway simulator gameplay makes reading the story content annoying at best, and the gameplay being made worse because of retarded story reasons sucks (don't forget possible softlocks in some story areas!)
a bad game with a good story can be worth playing if you're interested in the story, and a good game with a bad story can be enjoyed for the gameplay, but if both suck there's really no reason beyond morbid curiosity to play it
summarizing gameplay and story problems would not fit in the character limit but if you know any bad tropes for either there's a good chance you'll find it here
what redeeming qualities this does have are either bogged down by the entire rest of the game, or just decent ideas that deserved (way) better execution

>>58295634
don't forget all the useless shit added to pad out development time that doesn't fix any of the game's absurdly long list of problems or build upon any existing things that have potential in the first place
and if anything with clear problems does get revisited expect the cause to be pretty much ignored

>>58295657
Desolation is the best because it has the most coherent story. It's about Darkrai and his dream world nightmare shenanigans. Basically I think everything is connected back to Darkrai. Having Pokemon be important in a Pokemon game? What a novel idea! An idea that would probably give Jan a stroke. And, it has the most likeable characters.

>>58295765
That's the one thing I don't get about Jan's writing. It's written as a Pokemon fan game that wants to be anything but a Pokemon fan game. Jan instead apes a bunch of TV shows and anime his autistic ass watches and crams them into the plot to pad the story. Why the sweet fuck are the Pokemon playing second fiddle to the people? They are cast into irrelevancy while Jan's OC dollar general magical girls are more powerful and better than them.

>>58295765
True, desolation has the most potential, the fights don't feel unfair at the same time of being very rewarding cause they're the right difficulty where you dont need heaps of tries to figure them out and you can have thrilling close first battles with bosses, I also love the side quests cause they're not nearly as confusing as rejuvenation

>>58295765
Uhm ackshually rejuvenation's story does involve pokemon

As in, millenia ago some ancient civilization decided to fuck around with sould and that made Arceus angry so standard JRPG kill god offscreen hyperwar happened and the world got reset as a simulation where like a dozen or so souls got to continue existing in the new world and there's this communist computer god straight out of a Francis E. Dec rant that controls literally everything and the one person immune to it, the player character, has to deal with it anyways because this game is railroaded so hard that I question if I can really call it a trainwreck with how on-rails everything is. No really, that's the entirety of v13.5's new story content that matters.

Oh wait you can just replace Arceus with any deity figure and hey that reminds me of that time Jan openly said on his Tumblr that you could replace the Pokemon with any monster collecting series' mons and the story wouldn't need to be changed at all

>>58295820
Don't forget all the sidequests that you outright aren't going to find out about in a blind playthrough without backtracking or looking up a guide

The entire route split in Rejuvenation is handled like complete shit, Shadow Pokemon get completely ignored past a certain point and the story degenerates so badly that it's impossible for anyone to care about it, I don't like Reborn's story either, it's awful, but Reborn's gameplay is really good at least.
>>58295765
Desolation has Pokemon in general being the driving forces of quite a few plots, Desolation doesn't do as much as I wished it did with Pokemon, but the region feels like it's part of the Pokemon world, with little events and Pokemon doing things on their own, which I really appreciate.
You know a game has decent to good writing when it makes you really curious as to whatever's going on with quite a few characters, even the angsty yakuza psycho babe starts to develop a sense of respect for the player in spite of wanting to murder you, or maybe hatefuck you, it's kinda hard to say.

>>58295825
Not only that the god is one of Jan's multiple self inserts

>>58283755
It's an utter mess with some of the worst writing ever conceived. If you want a truly quality fangame, the you should be playing Pokemon Empire. It follows a TRUE mature story with the most realistic characters and themes you could imagine.

reborn's story is fine and its cast is serviceable, though its setting and gameplay are definitely its best aspects
comparing it to rejuv's is an insult
>route split
what, you don't like sitting through a hundred+ hour game again while making a ton of otherwise pointless dialog choices to get what's basically just an even harder game with no rewards (the devs advertise this btw) with 95% of the game being practically the same up until the last 5% where the only significant story changes are everyone hating you, mary sue becoming even more annoying, and the fact that the plot railroad will also involve you killing everyone for the evulz?
also said route split (either the fact it exists or the knowledge of how to unlock it) is not even implied at all ingame outside of maybe the vaguest of hints that are given halfway into the game (or possibly beyond the point where you can start trying to unlock said route) that you'll probably disregard anyways since you've come to accept how railroaded everything is by the time you reach them
also there's no password to skip to the route split in case you're interested in checking it out but don't want to replay most of the fucking game

I mean, you have TONS of those moments, but the ones I feel they hurt the game most are:

>The City Block
At some point in the game you are "locked" in a city until a certain point because ecoterrorists and Deus Ex Machinas. And this sucks because this is the moment the game gave you tons of sidequests, but you must get many items in that town.
Also, the blocking is broken, you can leave with Fly at any moment. So why are we forced into the city?

>The Time Travel chapter
Oh no! Melia is having a melty! We must stop her!
>Add some backstory, but mainly TONS of bad choices due to "my friends are complete retards"
>Kill a bug
>Return to present
>Everything is shit
>Go back to the past
>Let the story run properly
>Back to the future
>"Oh, hey MC, you were gone for 10 minutes. What happened?"
Everything that happens there turns to nothing. Is like the game wanted to retcon itself, and then it felt bad so it pulled another retcon to go back.

>Aelita's Nightmare
Hello mandatory softlock. I hope you have a prepared team for the hundreds of battles that will follow ahead. Oh, and you can't change it or train them, sorry.

>The Dangaropan rip off chapter
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

>The Paragon Route
>The ENTIRETY of Paragon Route


I only hope Rejuvenation ends, so modders cuts tons of the fluff, and maybe settle for a "sensible" canon. Because so far is "everybody needs to be angsty and broad. But above all else, they MUST take your agency from the story".
Yep, even the MC is side-lined. In his OWN story.

>>58295634
Just how much fucking resource (development time, filesize, loading time, money, opportunity cost, coding requirements, story retcons, design conflicts if you assume jan even cares about those, the list goes on) wasting crap does he even need all this time to throw in when the next steps after what's been the current plot cliffhanger for over 4 years (fun fact v13 released in august 2021 at the latest) are so obviously spelled out to players and in theory the developers
>paragon: go raid the xen base and destroy their superweapon to save the world because this is the good route
>renegade: go kill people and bring about the end of the world because this is the bad route
With like 18 or so devs you'd think they'd be able to resolve the main, several IRL years long cliffhangers in a reasonable amount of time, right?

>>58296105
Oh wait I think that's probably one of the answers for my rhetorical question beyond just spaghetti code, shitcode, and greed - the idea of players taking things into their own hands and fixing things they don't like is kryptonite to Jan. No wonder the story has been at a standstill for 4 years.

>Aelita's Nightmare
>Hello mandatory softlock. I hope you have a prepared team for the hundreds of battles that will follow ahead. Oh, and you can't change it or train them, sorry.
I think you mean point of no return (of which there's a lot) but there's definitely several cruel-tier softlocks (ones with no immediate indication that you got stuck; also refer to picrel) in the game if your team simply isn't strong enough and you didn't bring a backup outside of the save folder just in case or know how to activate debug mode to cheat your way through
But yeah the sections where you're not allowed to change your party until you beat them just go against the spirit of RPGs/pokemon games

>>58295835
i just got a crazy idea
what if shadow pokemon
were actually seen being used by the evil team that made them in a game that makes it a big plot point for the part between the first and second badges
and maybe some named characters could have former shadow pokemom too for good measure, because surely if some random shithole across a major ocean from the place snag machines were invented can have a snag machine then surely it'd make sense if more than one existed in the region and it'd make more sense than the only one being in the hands of some random teenager, and it'd also make sense if there was more than one person who knows how they work too, this game is set at least far enough in the future from the orre games for one of that region's villages to become a suburban area part of some big (by pokemon game standards) city, so surely the concepts behind how snag machines work would eventually get on the internet by then

but nah let's just have the journey to find the one person who knows how to fix the snag machine be interrupted by random ghost trees coming from some weird magic mansion thing inside a pocket dimension that somehow appeared inside a maintenance room in the sewers, which will conveniently be long enough for players to forget about shadow mons
and even after you finally meet the one character who can fix it, you don't encounter any new shadow pokemon to use your fixed snag machine on unless you backtrack to a location that you have no plot reasons to return to ever and are never notified of new content that you can backtrack for at all (like 94% of the game's backtracking side content)

they're just abandoned early version leftovers that never got expanded upon
>>58295836

The heavy texts wasn't a problem in itself I love reading, the poor quality was. And in addition to all the other problems of the game (like all routes being fucking mazes for some reason or the characters being so abundant yet unmemorable/uninteresting), it made me stop. If the story was even decent I would have tried to finish it to see how it ends, but sadly, it was far from being the case. (this applies to Reborn,Desolation and Rejuv).
It's a shame these games had such great idead on the side. Reborn for instance made exploration quite fun, the slow rebuilding of the main city as you progress in the story was also enjoyable.

i'd say rejuvenation's mapping is the best in the trilogy when it comes to gameplay/the process of actually getting from point a to point b but it definitely still has some maps that are annoying to traverse
not nearly as bad as some maps in reborn or half of fucking desolation, which i can only help will have its mapping problems fixed with those new hires that are hopefully fixing the maze hell

as for the characters well rejuv has a few characters that are relevant and well written and generally belong in a better game, a considerably higher amount of characters that are relevant but badly written/just plain annoying or cancer to be around, and a whole lot of irrelevant characters that get barely any screentime whether they need it or not, usually appearing in a handful of chapters only to disappear from the entire region until the plot remembers they exist. i'd say half of those could be interesting if written better or otherwise given a niche where they can be relevant to at least some plot arc or general area
after the first act (which has a lot of plotholes but still could be salvaged with relatively few changes) the plot's absurdly badly written with zero idea what it's trying to be at all and is probably a literal monkey on typewriter scenario, and as for rejuv's worldbuilding
lol, lmfao

>>58296785
Rejuvenation has a single one that you explore in the lategame, which was originally created as an escape ark after everything went to shit because of the ISO Standard JRPG Plot being used as a backstory
It also used to be outright broken in at least one version of v13

Does Reborn have good and evil choices?

>>58296828
not really outside of sidequests, but unlike rejuv your choices (plural) actually matter

it's so railroaded that the entire game is just you stuck in a really long train ride
any side content is basically just walking around inside the train, sure you can do it and it gives the illusion of being able to decide what to do, but ultimately it'll do nothing to change the route things take
also the train's engine is outdated, the track is poorly laid, any onboard refreshments are either crap or barely existent, and the train will grind to a halt randomly because fuck you

is the most egregious run-on sentence I’ve ever seen on this website and I’ve been here since 2011

it has like three major choices that are actually displayed as choices
- give cal the ruby ring or not (changes one fight in the postgame and changes the location of it)
- fight taka in the WTC or not (makes a significant change to several postgame quests, as well as the main story)
- if you didn't fight him in the WTC, you get the choice to let him follow you around in the desert (changes the tao sidequest significantly and removes the scene at the end of the dialga/palkia quest)

V12 (Old) was abandoned in LATE 2015.
Rejuv is absolutely plagued by rewrites and padding.

>how to make shadow pokemon a threat
>make all balls thrown at them have a 0.1x catch rate (like Ultra Beasts)
>later in the game add a new ball type that has a 5x catch modifier instead (also like Ultra Beasts)
>elaborate on this by saying that the snag machine that you have it a model that is only able to catch shadow pokemon but as a result is worse at functioning

>>58296105
did they add "actually because WE ARE INTERCEPTOR you can temporarily go back" to any of these or is that literally just a thing for the Tower of Theolia right now

He wants his paypigs to cough up as much money as possible before he releases this.

It's pretty ridiculous how, when you think about it, no one gets a solid win during the entirety of act 1 (outside of Crescent swooping in to save your ass).

>>58302719
Because even when you win you lose nothing you do matters because Jan said so.

this is obviously retarded
and also completely itrelevant because people will just save scum to offset the absurdly low catch rates of no reason
random chance is absolutely NOT a valid balancing factor in pokemon games

>>58302719
uh actually you do win battles with virtually no real stakes (gym and rival battles)
as for everything else in the entire game it's either "win the battle, lose anyways" or just having your victory stolen by someone who wasn't even actually in the fight
in opposition to the vast majority of games where the player character's actions and successes do matter more often than they don't, because those games actually recognize the concept of a main character

>Pokemon rejuvenation has a good story.
It takes a nosedive RIGHT after you beat Amber and they start introducing stuff like time travel. It could be good but the execution is just not there. It felt like I was watching a shitty TV show on the CW or something. Doesn't help that the characters make dumb choices just so the story can continue. A good example is when you fight Clear in the Axis Lab. There are like what, 5 or so characters with you? And they all quite LITERALLY do nothing the entire sequence.
The gameplay and graphics are what carry it though, yeah.
Also, Aelita is the best character. She's competent (doesn't need god powers and still kicks ass unlike a certain SOMEONE), likable and the one main character I actually cared about when she left. Also it's kinda funny that the writers clearly want you to like Melia more. When there's a setback the whole cast literally gives her a group hug (I think after Nim gets captured in Terajuma) meanwhile Aelita explains she was turned to stoneto Melia she's just like 'oh...okay' and the story moves on lmao. I hope they don't realize that people actually like her and start treating her like Melia

>>58291446
>awful and omnipresent story in games like Reborn or Rejuvenation
I liked Reborn's story though...

>>58304696
You WILL NOT attempt to hug the cute tomboy instead of the annoying dyke that gets you killed on three separate occasions

Also, is it just me, or were the sidequests the only good parts of the story in this game? They were self-contained, didn't overstay their welcome, and that was it. They were oddly the most memorable parts of the game for me. Like I remember the hidden library+castle zygara/ANA/goomink quests way more fondly than the main quest. The regi stuff in V13 was also quite good

>>58304696
It surprises me that the one we delete in the Renegade Route (Amber) is treated with sadness and emptiness.
I feel that if they do that with Aelita, many will go "Aelita-who?" and let being the bad guy.
Also, as a side note, is obvious you are the bad guy in that route, but Melia takes the spotlight trying to go "haha, I'm so smart" like Kyra.
But what people don't see is that Kyra wasn't that smart, because the more you analize the case, you can see he has himself left open thousands of times. The only reason he wasn't caught was because nobody connected the dots.

I feel at that point your character is aware enough (because this is the "OMG, le 4th wall, I'm a playa da hole thyme") to actually let Melia be retarded, and when the game goes into the big reveal, you fuck her too because fuck her, and delete everything.

>>58304745
Well, they let you meet guys you only met once, like Rorrim B.
You go, have a short adventure, enjoy yourself, and maybe talk a bit with them. After that they say goodbye, you say goodbye, and have a nice new trinket.
A positive experience. Something that Jan won't let you have.

>>58304745
>>58305294
Alright hear me out
What if we had stuff like this, but with main story characters

>>58305380
While I'd normally support this, NO.
Many already take waaaaay more than they should, and pretend they had some form of "character growth".
If the game treats me as a side charavter, fine, I'll stay with the side characters. They are more fun than the main ones.

>>58305785
by that i mean not melia or her forgettable girlfriend

thoughts on Pokemon Ecchi Rejuvenation?

>>58304696
Aelita has to suffer because she's nice to the MC and doesn't want to eat Melia

>>58306284
Good for a laugh, but don't expect lewds. You'll end up as blueballed like playing the OG game.
