Just for the theme? The entire game was beautiful and delicious
Mystery Dungeon is the longest running spin-off in this series by quite a bit now right? Talent stays winning
Yeah they become really hard in some spots.
These games can be tough af in the later dungeons, especially post-game, if I recall correctly
Interesting to see performance complaints. Could this be another one that originated as a 3DS project?
Post game is a nightmare and there's a few dungeons in the story that'll test ya patience
Watch I get skitty after talking with you gonna play the demo tonight
Originally they were just Ai. Probably didn't change that
Or you run out of Pp halfway thru cuz you wanted to fight everything on every floor
ah, that's a shame. I like playing such games with my SO, and while I don't mind playing them by myself other single player games are much higher on my list.
thanks for the response.
Now I'm recalling my childhood where I spent the entire night at a friend's trying to get through this one 90+ floor dungeon I think with Mew in it. He was playing the newly released Pokemon Gale of Darkness at the time.
He got through a decent chunk of the game, while I was still stuck in that dungeon... 😃
You know it

To put it into perspective, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon has been ongoing longer now, than the mainline series had been by the time the first PMD first came out.
Rescue Team was pretty tough to me as a certain earlygame boss defeated me, and then later on another boss did the same, but that was my first time playing a game like this as a kid so I'm not sure how others felt about certain bosses. Overall, I recall it being challenging but fair enough. Seeing as this game has some additions, maybe this remake will be more balanced.
Postgame is where Rescue Team had some brutal dungeons, however.
This demo's getting me all nostalgic.
It kinda bothers me that moving into your partners space pushes it forwards instead of swapping places.

Played through the demo so here are some quick thoughts:
- Perfectly recaptures the charm of the original, I felt like I was 10 years old again while playing.
- Loved that they kept the questions the exact same, I'm pretty sure I got the same Pokemon I did 1years ago (Mudkip)
- Not a fan of the 'pushing' system from Super Mystery Dungeon as I find it more cumbersome than useful and a great way of accidentally wasting Hunger.
- Feels like they went a bit overboard on making the starters good. Mudkip starting with Water Gun, Mud Bomb and Mud Slap is bad enough but Pikachu is straight broken, it's dealing out 40 damage when the Pokemon only have 12HP
- Seems like they're a bit more generous with the items as well, you can get a lot of Tiny Reviver Seeds in the early dungeons
- Friend Zones have been renamed to something I can't quite remember but I really hope they haven't redesigned the system, collecting Pokemon and then visiting them in their habitats was one of my favourite parts of the originals.
You can still swap places with your partner by holding B and moving in the direction your partner is in. It was handy in Super for Monster Houses since a common problem is swapping places just to escape into a hallway and your partner was getting beaten up as a result, but even I forget that I'm pushing and waste hunger as a result.
I know what dungeon you're talking about, and you remember correctly about it. 99 floor dungeons are such an endurance run.
Story is the main reason these games have been appreciated over the years.
This one also seems to have more story events than the original as well.
These games might make you love dungeon crawlers. Rescuing lost Pokémon is a really endearing concept, and the password stamp rescue system was revolutionary at the time.
If you wanted story in a pokemon game with some effort this would be ya best bet. It ain't top tier stuff but it's pretty good for Pokémon
It's 5 versions of the Rescue Team in 1, per /r/mysterydungeon
I can never live it up.
Opening and closing the game repeatedly is frustrating, and I say this from someone who have played Red and Blue Rescue Team.
Put it this way, there's multiple 100 floor dungeons that reset your level to 1 every time you go into it, you're not allowed to bring any items in with you, and you have to enter alone without any partners.
Yeah, they get pretty challenging.
Story is meh like every pokemon game. Gameplay is exactly what is shown in the footage nothing special.
I tend to enjoy them tho.
A bunch of comments made observations suggesting it's 5 versions mixed into 1. Reasons given below:
- You have Gen 3 Pokemon in the game. This is exclusive to Explorers of Darkness, Time, and Sky:
- You have Shiny Pokemon confirmed in the demo, exclusive to the Japanese Mystery Dungeon WiiWare titles:
- And you have Red/Blue Rescue Team, GBA and DS platforms, each of which are exclusive to their respective platforms. (Blue is more superior because of the extra 2 buttons, X and Y buttons.)
- Art may be argued to be a mix of Gates to Infinity / Super Mystery Dungeon, so that's 2 titles.
Folks also noticed that the game has 18 story points on the save files now, whereas the original only had 12. Either they've reworked where the game notes progress on the save screen, or they've added new post-game content.
I'm going to guess that we're getting more post-game content.

OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, I'm trembling in delight!
Most likely. I'm willing to bet at least part of the new expanded post game will include a dungeon or two to unlock the power of mega evolution.
It's been 9 pages, and no one mentioned the game itself is handled by Spike Chunsoft!
There's no way they are going to make the game less appealing. Their music soundtrack will be very nice to listen to.
Also... Jukebox / Album Room from Explorers of Sky.... One can hope.
Alsoooo, it's 14 years of Pokemon isekai.

I like this auto mode. The optimal A attack thing might make me really sloppy, although I keep defaulting to it. I know it doesn't matter that much early on, although I almost wiped against a Voltorb that drained half my HP. LOL
Really dig the art style. Music is pleasant although nothing amazing yet. Good so far, but just not sure if it's $60 good.

Oh, is that how you do it now? Last game I played was Explorers and swapping places was still the default action there.
