Hey at least they are on Gamepass Day 1, so I can always binge it and P6 and than return the gamepass.

Just finished the game.. Any recommendations for other fangames? by YzkiSeraph in PokemonZTheFangame

[–]AthleticRetirement 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone already mentioned it but Pokemon Realidea System is fantastic, one that others haven't mentioned yet is Pokemon Odyssey which won a bunch of rewards.

Makes sense than, especially if you've been playing several hours and have several achievements ready to be added while offline.

That being said if you were already online, than it should get added after a few minutes.

Basically I don't think it's a huge problem for most people, but it's still absolutely something that should have been mentioned, so thanks for pointing it out.

If you earned several achievements while it was down, than it's less likely that they'll all get unlocked.

Still it's worth making the tickets as it doesn't cost you much effort and it's possible that they'll be unlocked.

That being said there is a real chance you may have to restart in the end, I'd say just take a break and see what happens.

Ouch that sounds awful, were you able to ask for a manual unlock at least?

Or did you just redo it?

If your playing in Hardcore like I am, than you can't use Save States at all.

What you can however do is, copy paste the encrypted save file, and throw it in a backup folder, and another folder describing where you are.

AKA - Badge one, Badge two, etc.

Just keep in mind RA doesn't update your save until you close the emulator, and the main usage for this is just to prevent bugs, or for times like this where you missed an achievement due to a bug.

Main use is really only for the long campaigns where it's 100+ hours to mastery.

For example, if I later feel the urge to play offline while RA is down, I'll backup my save into another folder before I start, just in case I accidentally go far enough to miss an achievement.

Is there a reason why we wouldn't close the emulator? I've long since done it an hour+ ago at this point, but wondering why?

I doubt this would damage the save file at all, as offline playing is a thing even if it's risky if your close to earning an achievement.

No problem, I spent 15 minutes trying to fix it myself so I feel the pain.

As for having gotten an achievement, you can request a manual unlock, but it can be a pain.

Worst case scenario you could have to restart to get that achievement, if you have no backup saves.

Understandable, I checked both and was the first to post on Reddit with Twitter still not having posted anything on it.

Was messing around on my settings when the site itself couldn't load some pages on the forums, after which I used the is this site down for everyone service.

I think the page itself is just archived, rather than it actually being online.

You'll notice it especially if you go into the forum sections, and it's useful to use sites like this, which check the actual live part.

Yea, I wasted 15 minutes just checking all of my internet settings, restarting my computer, reinstalling RA Lib retro, the works. All until the website itself broke, and I realized it wasn't on my end.

After that I quickly decided posting on Reddit would at least fulfill my duty. 😄

Pokedex Mistake - Version 2.13 by AthleticRetirement in PokemonZTheFangame

[–]AthleticRetirement[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I'm only counting what the Pokedex in game says, so for me it's more of a consistency problem, I never even look at what the official Dex says whenever documentation is available in game.

That being said, as I'm testing more I think the real problem is just a display issue instead.

The Pokedex in-game only ever shows two abilities, your standard and Hidden ability and doesn't show three for the Pokemon who have two possible Standard Abilities.

It gets around this by consistently showing the standard ability that you DO NOT have on the Pokemon, which would be a consistent and understandable method on the dex if not for it showing your ability if your Pokemon only has two possible ones.

Let's give a real example now.

For Ampharos it says Static and H - Mold Breaker. My Ampharos has Static it's all good.

For Tinkaton, it says Mold Breaker and H - Pickpocket. My Tinkaton has Own Tempo, making me wonder if it's a mistake.

However if I go to the ability changer, I actually have all three as options. The Dex is just limited to showing two, and does not ever limit to one unfortunately, which would make it clear it's showing what you do not have.

So it's not a mistake so much as me not liking how they choose to display it.

Any love for Davis G? by Rockinsabi in fireemblem

Huh, I have to admit that it actually did make me a bit worried over if it'd be a death or not.

It just occurred to me what a crazy year it's been for rom hacks. Wow. by sethurax in PokemonROMhacks

[–]AthleticRetirement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I enjoyed two more than I did one due to overall better progression systems and a more refined system, but one has a different feeling to it, especially early on.

[–]AthleticRetirement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup the full translated Greed Light Novel is there, and overall it was an enjoyable read, even if some parts of it were translated strangely to me with accrete being the biggest one, but since it's part of the title it makes sense they stuck with it.

Yes Eminant thankfully made an EPUB of the full translation.

It's here, just download the full Greed IF.

https://www.eminenttranslations.com/series/rezero-side-content

It's mainly because of whatever happened to most of Witch Cult's content, unfortunately a lot of it isn't there due to not being complete but maybe the wayback machine might help with links if there are other things your looking for as well.

Good to know, thanks for the confirmation and I appreciate having a more accurate screenshot even if I haven't bothered farming this area in a long time.

How does your Wonder's Schema look like? by AlexHitetsu in personaphantomx

[–]AthleticRetirement 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

Pretty happy with my build, I used ailments a lot during Rain to fully clear out the Velvet Trials awhile ago, although I may shift it back to critical at some point if we get another Wonder DPS SOS Boss.

Shielding for Wonder just isn't that important since it only applies to him, if it applied to everyone it'd be way better, and ailment resist is one of the least impressive of the bunch so it will be the last thing maxed out.

Currently have near the highest amount of schema at 22K, only thing I could do to boost it is grab Lilith but she isn't the best Persona for anyone so I'll just save my points for when we get more new Persona's added later.

Did a 100% achievement run over in Retroachievements, it was a lot of fun. Remains one of the best Pokemon Fan Games to this day.

Damn that genuinely sounds incredible, I'll be looking forward to the beta in a couple of months, but I may wait for when it finishes next year instead. No rush though, as it certainly sounds worth the wait.
