So Dr. Psycho there has already been commented on a bunch, as has OFS' bad taste in comic book characters.

Techinically since Harley was made for Batman: TAS, she's technically a cartoon character, which is even worse

Ignoring all the what the actual gently caress going on here, wow Heather is insufferable. Like, I thought the idea was that her dad was borderline abusive and that we should feel sorry for her and poo poo, but she's basically just a big bully who acts like a five year old, and suddenly it's not so unreasonable that her dad was pissed off by her lovely disobedience. Hey rear end in a top hat, maybe he set a bunch of rules on you because your idea of 'friendship' is yelling at a timid girl until she agrees with your every whim.

Eh, her dad just turned out to be a terrorist and suicide bombed a city for losing a Pokemon battle. In a better narrative, you could cut her a lot of slack for acting lovely to everyone, because some people just aren't good at handling tragedy.
However, we're not reading a good story; we're reading the worst story we could find because our brains are wired wrong.

Also, new thread title is good, but I think it's a bit of a missed opportunity:

Goddamn that's a lot of words, thanks for cutting out most of the bullshit cause reading this dialogue is like applying sandpaper to your eyes. The fact that this hasn't changed since I've tried Reborn is very telling. Also completely not-Pokemon-like. By this time in the game even Sun&Moon are stomping down on the cutscenes and fluff and focus on the gameplay more cause stopping your momentum after every single badge is really not how you get someone invested in the game :v:

They also had the realization of more limitations does not equal fun, and thusly just let you go kinda hog with whatever for the most part, which is basically in the exact opposite direction this game went.

What I'm saying is gently caress this arbitrary level cap poo poo holy gently caress

EDIT: And so much "plot" you legitimately forget what you're supposed to ACTUALLY be doing.

Is anyone else having this problem where the game is literally deleting parts of itself randomly and refusing to start? This is now the sixth time I've had to start over in my attempts to record going through with no level caps and better pokemon. It's almost like my computer is rejecting the code as being too horrible.

"Most plans are critically flawed by their own logic. A failure at any step will ruin everything after it. That's just basic cause and effect. It's easy for a good plan to fall apart. Therefore, a plan that has no attachment to logic cannot be stopped."

It's trying to save you. Stop fighting, and accept that you should not, under any circumstance, subject yourself to this poo poo and your computer genuinely loves you and wants you to be happy, which you won't with Reborn. No one can be happy with Reborn. Reborn does not want you to be happy.

This game is horrible enough that I had a deluge of ideas for my own fangame. If I wanted to go dark and edgy, just having Ghost and Dark types act like their pokedex entries would do the trick, I don't need to stick unnecessary child torture and possibly sexual abuse in (Also this was literally a Criminal Minds episode). I even came up with a "good" way to represent a gun. It's a Poke Doll in battle, and a Repel in the field.

I'm sure it will go nowhere and my ideas file will languish in the folder with the files for my cat simulator, suburb manager, and hat-themed WWII puzzle platformer.
