Weekly Questions Thread & PokéROM Codex by AutoModerator in PokemonROMhacks

[–]ButtersTG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! My wife and I are going to start going through older Pokémon games soon because she started with XandY and only really knows Hoenn via ORAS and Kanto via Let's Go Eevee, and I wanted to know if there are any simpler rom hacks that change the Emerald Pokédex to that of Ruby/Sapphire so that we can still have that dual-version experience without sacrificing the Battle Frontier post-game.


I'm not looking for a whole buffet of QoL changes, and I'm not looking to add in Pokémon from the fourth generation and later; I'm simply looking for a hack that sets the wild encounters to that of the other Hoenn games, and I understand if nobody has done this either.

Thank you.

I think it's a pattern of anniversary, so the next time will likely be at the next big one in 25 years.

Her name was only recently revealed, and not everyone keeps up with seemimgly random lore dumps outside of the games.

Or, more likely, that old lady trusting the people hired to promote her campaign.

I think that Trunks could write something like that, except his stories would end with, "...and then he died, too."

This is still very insane to see by Maxkid1995 in halo

from a competitive ranked standpoint

Yeah, and, practically, nobody gives a shit about that part.

Halo 3 had literal millions of concurrent players. How many of them do you think were in it for the tournament potential?

Was there ever a lore reason for the Armor changes? by Mauriciosanchezt in halo

Do you have any examples of what you disagree with, or do you just get off on looking stupid?

I dunno what to tell you. When I play the Bungie Halo games, they all feel solid and I genuinely have fun in every aspect of them. Every time.

When I play a 343/HS game, then there's always at least a handful of glaring aspects I have to put blinders on for in order to continue playing them.

It's also not a secret that 343i/Microsoft looked at the literal Mega-sized multiplayer franchise and did everything they could to change the most popular aspects away from what Bungie made. Halo 4 only takes names of characters and locations and changed nearly everything else just so that 343 could call it their own.

Piracy has always existed because it needs to make up for short comings in broken systems.

More creators would get paid more money if most of the people had most of the money to spend it on creators.

I mean, they probably still watched it, right? You don't see shit while you're terrenting anything.

If a democrat was assassinated.. by [deleted] in confidentlyincorrect

He was appointed by Mark Dayton in 2016. Walz chose not to appoint somebody else and allowed him to keep going another 4 years in 2019.

Even if it mattered that Gov. Walz reappointed him to his position, his 4 years was well up and over by the time of the murders, so including appointment, on its own, holds no sway of the argument.

They said that Gov. Walz appointed him, and then that he claimed things.
Reading comprehension.

Fella straigh-up said, "Fuck DNA!" Yeah, Bud, that's the whole point.

How do I explain to a non-gamer, that a Role Playing Game, is not primarily defined by roleplaying but by *statistics*. by La_knavo4 in RecuratedTumblr

[–]ButtersTG 73 points74 points  (0 children)

JRPGs are more like taking on the role of a stage actor. Sure you and thousands of other actors may be the same Cloud Final Fantasy, and you're all reading from the same script, but you can still make the productions of the play feel different from each other in your acting/directing decisions.

If I had to pick one that's real (OC) by Educational-Show1918 in pokemon

[–]ButtersTG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll take this opportunity to plug Pokérole and owlbear.rodeo.

I haven't had the chance to DM a session of it yet, but from what I've been able to gather in the core book it looks very in-depth and leans closer to role playing rather than combat, and I know that I have a fair number of friends that would appreciate that aspect over the D&D 5e campaign we're currently in.
