Pokemon Sage 2.0

Hey, Vsauce, Michael here

What sort of expertise do you particularly need currently?

It sounds like you've kind of got a too many cooks situation with dialogue, for example.

>>33135962
Can you map, sprite, make tiles, music, balance, or program?

>>33135962
it's more of a process problem than a quantity problem. I'm sure the project could use anyone who can do anything that isn't just "what if..."ing everything

>>33135962
Sound design would be especially helpful. We need people to make SFX and Pokémon Cries.

>>33135929
>>33135859

Was this never voted on?
I remember back when threads were still made on /vp/,
someone made some awesome sprites for the andante gym in water.
People put said sprites into maps too.

>>33135962
Spriters are always welcome

>>33135982
It was. The anon is mistaken. It's out in the water.

>>33135982
it was a giant shitshow and in the end the swimluminati changed the gym from being something a ferry took you out to to the weird cave entrance thing

nothing really to be done about it at this point unless there's a massive vocal outpouring against it in the feedback

>>33135991
muh inner tube

Just my opinion but isn't level 32 a bit to high evolution level for Mortasque?

>>33136013
I feel like a lot of the really early mons have evo levels that are too high.

Like, I get that the game is supposed to be long, but on the other hand, something like Bluffin evolves at 32 and something like Craliber evolves at 23, and you have to raise one of those up from, like, level 2.

>>33135962
Dialogue doesn't have too many cooks, it's just that our current system/infrastructure isn't very good. We're working on one infrastructure improvement now, but aside from agreeing that something ought to change, we haven't made much progress on the system aspect of it.

There's room for people doing pretty much anything except for plot and pokémon designs, which are done. Coding and overall bureaucracy also don't really need help, since we've got good people keeping those positions well filled, but if someone were really passionate about helping in those areas we could definitely find work to share.

Mapping is the slowest thing, and having some more people, especially people who are excited to get things done, would expedite the entire development process a lot. But it's also a lot of work, so yeah.

Mungo's right about sound, we've got good music but our FX aren't as well on point. Though it's not like we ever couldn't use more good music either.

Spriting and concept art are moving along well enough, but a lot of that is put on one guy, and he's great, but it would be good to take some of the weight off of him.

I don't know anything about stats or distros or the other gamplay type stuff, so someone else will have to weigh in on our staffing situation there.

That's everything off the top of my head.

So what size do you guys play on?
Small looks good but is well a bit too small.
medium i like best
large just make the sprite art look weird

Holy shit 2.0 is here. I never thought this day would come

>>33136120
medium a best

>>33136081
>the plot and pokemon designs are done
>they need help with everything else
Typical artfags

>>33136120
Large because my eyes are shit.

>>33136155
TBF for an RPG having the plot done means everything else can be planned around

>>33136120
Large for fullscreen

this game is alright but nothing special why is it taking so long to complete it

Love most of the sprites except pyroat and cubzero's backsprites, they look a bit... off

>>33136155
Well, there's people for every roll. It's not like we need an influx to get the thing done. But if people want to help, that's what the situation is in the different areas.

Games take a long time to make.
Have you seen the other pokemon fangames?
Most of them don't have a fully custom pokedex and those that have custom pokemon usually look pretty bad both design-wise and sprite-wise. Not too mention they are usually unbalanced as fuck

>>33136035
I have to agree with this. I want to keep some of these pokemon, but they evolve so late i cant justify raising them the whole way.

>>33136237
yeah, friendly reminder that Pokemon Uranium took NINE YEARS to get out and its spritework
and Pokemon designs looked like this:

>>33136400
Its '''''''''''''''pokémon''''''''''''''' designs

>>33136386
This shit is fucking awesome and all of you should listen to it

>>33136416
sure, okay

>>33136400
ewe, they should have taken more time to develop their spriting skills

>>33136386
This is great! For some reason, it kind of reminds me of Yoko Shinomura, or maybe Motoi Sakuraba, before every fucking song Sakuraba put out sounded the exact same.

>>33136400
and somehow it has better gameplay than sage

>>33136579
I have not played uranium
What exactly makes it's gameplay better?

I keep getting a my computer stopped an unrecognizable app from starting when trying to start the game. Is it safe to start it anyway?

>>33136620
Yeah. It's in the readme file. Some antiviruses hate sage for whatever reason.

>>33136579
>nuclear type

>>33136606
>>33136606
He's trolling. It's utter shit, based entirely on gimmicks.

>>33136606
better early game variety, doesn't have performance problems, doesn't fall for the "every gym leader needs to be an epic uphill fight" so it has a decent difficulty curve.

>>33136643
I disagree on the first part (early game was 90% that creepy chipmunk and the bugbear) and the second is straight up not true; Uranium runs even worse for me than Sage does (but not as bad as Reborn; fuck Reborn). Can't remember the gym leaders, though.

>>33136643
Gym leaders really aren't that hard honestly.
also i have not had any performance issues so far and my computer are a few years old.

>>33136656
there's a fighting type and a rock/steel type available before the first gym that uses normal types. that alone makes it better.

>>33136694
I mean there's three available mons that resist ice (four if you count thick fat capig) not counting the two starters that also resist ice. Two of those learn rock moves by level up, one of which learns it really early (Capig gets rollout at lv 7).
That's not even taking into account Fawning who is a fucking beast and learns double kick.
And then there's Pebblosa, the status god.

I mean unless you're really dedicated to doing a bird only run and love using Foliat and Harpee, you have a ton of options to use for Foster.

>decent difficulty curve
I feel like it's pretty fair provided you learn your lesson at Foster: you need a varied team and you cannot get through this game spamming A to win. This isn't smogon and it's not the casual garbage that has become the main games. The reason the gym leaders are ao hard is because you still haven't learned your lesson and the game punishes you for that. Crawglock is on Stella's team specifically to handle starters. It's why Magnitogre gets Bulldoze. You think you picked the easy mode starter and you can cheese the game right? You think Foliat players are fucking stupid right because why pick a grass type in the snow right? That doesnt make your journey any easier. You're going to earn your victory. It's funny, the Foliat users aren't bitching at all, but it's Kidling users who bitch the most.

Learn to use other pokemon for fucks sake. There are no shitmons in this game, only shit trainers. Git gud.

>>33137011
The Water starter is pretty much the most advantaged against the gym leaders, including the upcoming ones.

>>33137011
Basically this. I feel a lit of peiple get really lazy designing their teams and just add whatever. Then the game punishes them for it and they get mad at the game, rather than reflect on what they did wrong.

>>33137222
I feel like I'm looking for a different thing from a pokemon game than you are, since I don't think you should have to go out and design a team to take out the first or second gym leader.

That being said, I also don't think the gym leaders are all that bad - Stella could probably use a little toning down, but Foster's fine and you have enough options to deal with Cameron that he's kind of cake.

>>33137369
The fact that no one has used solacari against him to this point astonishes me considering it has gen5 permaweather

>>33136035
Yeah, I agree. And then while grinding, most mons will 2KO you no problem, which I find frustrating. I'd suggest letting wild pokemon give you a bit more exp per fight.

>>33137425
If your pokemon are getting 2ko then maybe your pokemon are shit and have shit ivs. Or maybe you shouldnt grind your mons against pokemon strong against it.

I tried clearing rain with tempest, but it doesn't appear to be working at the moment wooops. Didn't really have a problem even then.

>>33137425
>>33137443
His second point is somewhat valid, though. The use of Gen 5 level-dependant XP formula means you can easily run into the same problem as BW: if you want your team to be competently leveled (say, on par with other trainers, or a few levels higher), you will have to consistently grind against Pokémon that can be as many as five levels lower (Foster's Snome is level 16, your Rival's ace is level 15 - the wild Pokémon AFTER the first gym and even in the Rustling forest are level 11).

>>33137483
I guess you have to wait for it to run out of PP

>>33137519
I definitely left a comment to that effect when I submitted my survey. Several, actually. It gets even better when you're grinding level 17s for taking on Stella, or level 21-22's for Cameron.

>>33137521
it won't run out of PP, Copycatted moves don't have PP (since you can copy moves you don't even have). it's in a string of copying Copycat, it's not PP dependent

Ey, when I stand in this spot my Florabri's wing gets all fucked up, what gives devs?

>>33137545
It's unfortunate, but also somewhat inevitable. The overgrinding from BW is my single most hated thing in any Pokémon game. Such a shame they let it bleed into Sage.

(Oh, and just a note, SM fixes this with the new form of XP share, but I doubt it would make it to Sage)

>>33137565
I am truly in the 9th layer here.

>>33137537
oh you're in bad luck, copycat has some weird softlocking bugs right now, I'm afraid you have to restart from your last save, there's going to be a patch the next 1 or 2 days that'll fix this issue

>>33137569
There's probably a map seam there. RPG Maker lets you break large, lag inducing maps into smaller maps that then get combined during play. It would appear there's such a seam there.

>>33137570
I didnt mind grinding to be honest. My team at Stella were already in the 20s by the time I got there. Cowatti and Dreamdery are XP sluts and great to grind against.

Eh as long as you fight all the trainers and don't run from battle to often you should be at a decent level in my experience.

Leukoon needs an HP buff. It's bad. No reason why I should see it get OHKO'd by bite from a lvl 21 pomparunt when luke is 23 and has the defense that it does. Maybe take some points out of attack to compensate, but the HP needs to go up a bit.

For testing sake, to help with IVs and EVs too, I might recommend implementing a tool into the Pokegear maybe that can tell you your pokemons IVs and EVs? Call it Pokeancestry or something where you get a happiness drop (since you have to do blood testing or something) and send money over the pokegear and it shows you the IVs and EVs of your pokemon?

>>33138396
Because I honestly can't tell if I have a shit Leukoon or not and I have no idea how to calculate that stuff.

This was the team I beat Cameron with. Had to try four times and had two pokemon left alive at the end. I've been really frustrated with every gym battle. And grinding takes forever because the pokemon are much lower than your target. Is it just me?

>>33138409
You're the first Igaudium user I've seen complain, so take that to heart. I'm trying to get to Cameron now but it really looks like your team would naturally struggle with Stella and Foster. I wonder if people who use the birds are the ones struggling the most.

I didn't have any big problems honestly.
And I don't really grind, and always use the same amount of pokemon as my opponent for important trainers.

>>33138431
Idk, I just liked Koberus's design better/needed a fire type.

>>33138417
Foster and Stella actually weren't this bad. Both took two tries each, mostly just to learn their style of battle/type effectiveness. I thought Cameron would be the easiest, but I kept on getting hit by moves that could easily 2hko my mons combined with frequent flinching and frequent paralysis. I don't think that's a fault of mine, I don't know how I would work around that other than to just keep on trying until the RNG worked out in my favour, which is what I did.

i want to fuck a Kidling

>>33137369
Your trying to become a pokemon master, or whatever, trying to defeat the strongest trainers, the gym leaders, to earn your place as the top dog.
A pokemon master needs to learn how to design their team and how to defeat their opponents.
You can't just show up to a fight and expect to win because you're the main character, you have to earn your victory.

>>33137483
You should save after every new route, town, zone, whatever.
The game is stable but there will be errors that can cause you to lose progress.

>>33138423
My mons just couldn't take the hits (either 2hko or 1hko for most) and were hit with constant flinch and/or immobility due to paralysis.

>>33138466
Good man. Looking at your team, Bluffin and Aquilor are squishy and Leafish can't be much better either. Combine that with super effective against Koberus and I'm not surprised.

These mons are pretty fun to use in competitive. I wish the Showdown server was open more often, because these mons have some pretty cool quirks and gimmicks to work with, and weather wars is fun.

Just got to Legato. Still a little underleveled, so I'm putting Pyroat on the back burner, as they say. His nickname was originally supposed to be Buenos Aries, but then I realized I'd have to do puns for all the other capitals too and that seemed like a baaad idea - and besides, why goat through all that trouble just for some sheep laughs?

Are people scared of the word "install" or something?
I can't believe there are actually people who can get through 5 lines of dialogue with a fucking HD font slapped on a 256x192 game.
Not just in the thread, but in so many videos of people playing Sage demos they just mash past that notice without saying a word, like it's a god damn user registration form.

I honestly can't believe it bugs you this much

>>33140167

That wasn't meantto be inflammatory btw, I just really don't see it as having a dramatic effect on my playing experience. Like, if it were a serif font, I could see it being grating to the point of distraction, but the default's not awful.

>fire/rock
Is the fire starter better than it looks?

>>33140189
Yeah and if all the tiles were drawn by a 6 year old with a crayon it wouldn't have a dramatic effect on your playing experience either right?

>>33140380
Ah, gotcha. Thank for the quick reply.

>>33140198
It's a speedy sweeper. Is good as an offensive typing as opposed to a defensive one. It's super effective against the first two gyms, but we also put in some counter measures to make it more difficult to sweep with your starter. outside of Gyms, it steamrolls most of the game

>>33140431
Hey, quick question, who the fuck was the old spriter with the infamous jawgodon back sprite

>>33140358
We have so many different forms that people will probably confuse for shinies. We have Green and Blue Flowger, Doppoles with different caps, and Musburry as you mentioned.
I feel like there should be a mention of these forms in-game, so people don't freak out like this.

This guy walks up to your girl in the club and smacks her ass, what do you do?

Can I be real for a second?

This community is fucking atrocious right now. You're all acting like a bunch of whiny, entitled little babies.

A tiny team of people made an animated adventure for you to embark on. They made it for YOU, and they're going to wake up tomorrow morning and see that instead of enjoying it, this community of "fans" picked out the 3 or 4 things that weren't perfect and are using that to fucking riot.

Guess what? The game was never going to be perfect. It was never going to live up to your hype. It was never going to be everything you'd ever want in a movie.

What it WAS going to be was an impossibly epic adventure filled with action and hard shit. I just played it for an hour and a half and it was exactly that. What more do you want?

Is it simple? Sure. Is it repetitive? Maybe. Is the evolutions and the move sets questionable and the structure unclear? Sure, fine.

But holy shit what do these people OWE YOU?

How fucking entitled do you have to be to have the adventure of a lifetime inside a download and then say "yeah but…"

We should all be fucking weeping in our chairs right now at the sheer size and scale of the achievement. We should be showering the people behind this thing with the praise they deserve for pulling off one of the most inspiring game in recent memory.

Sage doesn't owe you a good time. Yet they gave you 10 HOURS worth.

If you have the fucking audacity to complain about it then you don't deserve it and you were never fans in the first place.

I grinded myself one last night before facing stella. The thing single-handedly broke through her team with hone claws and rock smash, so I'd say for a slower, bulkier bisharp is quite decent. I can't wait to abuse unaware bulk up + superpower.

The mon that is being a pain to grind my way to is oarwish. I've been carrying fortifry the whole game even though it does literally nothing of value for the team, and I'm starting to get worried oarwish might not be as good as I hope it will. Anyone got one of these yet?

Super not used to not using an emulator. Is there any way for controller support or changing the game players size?

Pretty sure there are programs that let you link gamepads to keyboard buttons.

Yes.
For some reason some descriptions go outside the box bounds. Shove it in the Bug Report survey
