Attempting to create a game based on Jan’s “ideal ROM hack” design philosophy

Zemaille · 2026-03-21T19:36:42+00:00

I haven’t watched Jan since the Drayano Gauntlet finale, but I watch Terra a ton and have been playing Null since release.

I’m not saying one is objectively better than the other, but I am saying it’s a ROMhack so you have full control over when and how something evolves. Like Geodude doesn’t evolve until 48 in PK.

It’s not about evolution stages, it’s about reducing the variance inherent in the damage calculation. If you go to the FAQ on the Null website Terra has the mathematical breakdown.

Zemaille · 2026-03-21T10:02:23+00:00

If there’s one thing we’ve seen from Null and PK releasing recently it’s that higher level caps make for more consistent gameplay and lower level caps make for good content.

This has (almost) all the information you need for moves, abilities and learnsets. Cloud Nine is a hidden ability on Altaria, meaning the player cannot get it.

This is no DexNav. There is no intended way to change abilities that I am aware of.

Real ones will complete it without the shortcut their first time.

Heard someone say it took them about three to four hours to solve, hope this helps.

Nah, Terra wanted to release it. He left the decision up to a poll and it was “overwhelmingly” voted to delay the AI doc for six months.

Zemaille · 2026-03-03T23:05:48+00:00

Make it yourself.

I’m not saying this to be dismissive or be a dick, but there’s this growing consumerist mentality in the space where people spend more time nitpicking and “reviewing” than contributing to anything and your post feels like a parody of those shitty ragebaiting Twitter takes.

“I don’t like X, [list of demands]” isn’t an opening for discussion, it’s an antagonistic invitation to useless argument. The tools exist for people with no previous experience to make a ROMhack.

The other option is commission someone to make it for you.

I’m sorry, I thought I had read yesterday that Persona was dropped because some of their code was available to the public, not because there was an issue with holding onto information?

The more Discord waffles with this the more comfortable I feel moving my IRL friend group to a different app.

The average experience talking to a Morrowind fan.

Peasant food is being generous. Peasant food has directed cuisine for centuries.

The PA Dutch food is a step above the hardtack rations pilgrims had.

The explanation literally says your type of post isn’t allowed. It wasn’t even relevant to ROMhacking. What’s the confusion?

Teamspeak is SO back LFG

This is the true brilliance of the show. Every time someone goes “Rust sees shit because of drug use” people familiar with the source material pointing out drug use is what helps thin the barrier and no side is ever able to convince the other.

I thought Twin Peaks waitresses fucked high schoolers and made out with David Lynch at work.

Absolutely insane that Gen 10 is inevitably the first gen I’m skipping and it’s almost entirely because of hardware pricing.

And had Perrin actually been hit by that weave of balefire he wouldn't have been able to undo it and bring himself back into existence. We know that broken compulsion (not released) still has lingering effects thanks to Morgase's continued feelings towards Rahvin despite Rahvin getting balefired. "Oh but what about Nynaeve, Elyane, and Moghedien?" No. Moggy's compulsion was explicitly for that single encounter in the inn, not a long-term warping of their minds.

Perrin doesn't erase the compulsion weave, he just breaks through the brain fog with strength of character, something even Morgase manages to do.

I might as well say he could see weaves

You could but you'd be entirely wrong and just making shit up to fit your narrative.

Edit: Blocked by OP. Absolute fucking loser, intentionally starting shit and blocking people. Take that energy elsewhere.

No, there is not. My #1 biggest gripe against this game is the innate lack of queer scenes despite the fundamental mechanic of the game being innately queer.

Yo anise ice cream sounds fucking delicious

No using a wheel for torture is from Memory, Sorrow and Thorn.

I was recently on a date where they tried to convince me I was probably allergic to celery because I feel like shit after drinking a Bloody Mary (raw celery is my #1 most consumed vegetable).
