Not That Good dman2life
At first, this seemed like it was going to be an amazing game. It stated a few known glitches, and looked complete. I started the game and it had it's own unique title and customized message before the game began. I was excited to play this new hack! I could already tell it was going to be good. And it did start out good. I was a studious character who looked like a Professor's Aid. I liked that. The story seemed interesting too, at first. Guy runs away from girl, she gets another dude, years later he freaks out and wants to time travel to fix it.
It's a bit of a plot hole, as he should have known she was married and pregnant. After all, they live in the same town. It's pretty obvious. Then, he beats Dialga, time travels and gets rescued by her husband in the past, and everything works out exactly as it did before. He's lonely, she's married with a kid baking in her oven. You don't get the girl. It's sad, and unfulfilling. Did he just give up and relive another X number of years watching the girl he loved get shagged by another guy? Dialga even said himself that he intervened and made her not love him. Why didn't he fight it? The game then gives a little hint about a cave that needed to be guarded, except, there is no cave. The girl asks you to help raise her kid with her husband, which is really weird. And then nothing else. The game ends. It seems like it should continue but it doesn't. It just hints at the kid and the cave, with no follow through. I was pretty bummed out at that. It advertises the explore the region, but it's just one town and 3 routes. Nothing else. Lame.
The sound is generic. It also glitches at the very beginning, but fixes itself afterwards. Other than that, there is no extra stuff in it, and it's the same as the old game. The game itself is not hard at all. A simple pokeball can catch every Pokemon in the game with enough luck, including a rapidash, a Persian, a pidgeoto and a Farrow. There was also a bulbasaur, but no squirtle or charmander. There are some bug and grass types, a few fire pokemon, and a psyduck to catch as well. Also a geodude and Abra and a Machop. Nothing else, as far as I can tell. A pretty big
selection for such a small area, but with only that area in the game, well... You catch my drift. Such limitations severely lowers the playability of the game. I don't want to replay it at all.
And there are glitches. EVERYWHERE. Seriously, it was horrifying. Don't teleport with an Abra, or you'll end up in Purgatory. Don't faint all your pokemon,or you'll seriously just die. Don't use the PC in the Pokemon Center. In fact, never use the pokemon center. Ever. Get the item from your PC in your house and use that instead. The item's description is glitched too. Sprites glitch a lot too, I noticed. You keep changing a lot. Also, after beating Dialga, if you choose to walk home yourself, I was forced to fight him again immediately after going back in time, with my weak pokemon and he was level 100. Somehow, I managed to flee. A miracle, I know. So yea, avoid the Pokemon Center at all costs, and let the game take you home instead, or else it glitches horribly.
Overall, because of all of that, the game rates a 2. It was a good effort, but there's not enough content, it doesn't deliver on the promise it gives, and there are so many glitches that it shouldn't have past testing. Seriously, please just get rid of that pokemon center for the love of Arceus!
