2021

holy mackaroni i started playing this when i got very very ill with covid and it made the experience even better trying to play this with a 104 fever in a complete and utter haze, it started to bleed into my dreams too. i tried to map this out by myself without using a guide and ended up writing 84 pages of notes. this is for release 0.9 that I am marking that I "completed" it, even with the amount of exploration I did, I am sure I missed areas because there is just so much to see! i typically don't like mario 64 but the amount of work and atmosphere the creators put in is incredible - huge fan of your work (the game and otherwise) and just cant speak highly enough about this

this game is like colosseum but worse which i didnt think was possible

100%ed the living dex and took me about 2 full years, 100%ed xd, colosseum, and had to use sapphire, leafgreen and fire red as well -- didn't catch mythicals obviously but everything else was done without cheats - as a kid i always thought people who preferred gen 3 were odd and i still have a weird perception of it but after putting in as many hours as i have i do appreciate how these games are polished in an oddly unpolished way, like e reader implementation and stuff like that idk i cant put it into words, a solid game for sure but I do think it's crazy that you have to play 5 games and own a minimum of 3 consoles to get everything in these games but oddly thats part of the charm for me

100%ed -- i actually don't like this as much as I did when I was younger, like it's good but not the best imo. also some of this game is unplayable unless you have the correct ds to use because of how the microphone works on 3ds xl which is interesting, for that reason not as good as the original imo.

as much as i like the dd64, there is no reason to play this version over the gamecube release. encountered a lot of bugs with the villager AI which made it not really viable to 100% complete like I usually like to. Play the gamecube one in full, fiddle around with this one if you really like the gamecube version, but beating the dd64 version is ill advised by ME!!!!!!!!

about 700 hrs on this - 100%ed stickers and trophies -- i was so obsessed with this as a kid that i had a countdown in my school calendar.. in hindsight it really is as clunky as people say :( i will always love this game for introducing me to mother 3 though

100%ed - really chill and fun game to play while watching youtube or a tv series - found 3 shinies, golem, pidgeotto, rattata
