Story and Plot
Dark Rifts have been appearing within the Ombrix Region for decades; however, in recent years they've begun to increase in size and magnitude. Dark Rifts radiate a strange substance known as Dark Energy. When Dark Energy settles it crystallizes. It can also enter into living things causing mutations and creating changes in their behavior. The Ombrix Council (The 8 Gym Leaders) is now working with the organization known as the SC to try and contain this Energy before it gets any worse. Professor Ficus is one of the lead researchers on Dark Energy and is setting up positions for internships! Will you help him get to the bottom of this mystery?

I love the game it looks good and amazing! ❤
What things contains in this version 4.5 of the game?
Thanks! I'm glad you like it! 4.5 overhauled the entire beginning on the game from New Grove Town where you pick your starter all the way to the Ombrix Everglades where you fight the second boss Fakemon. All the Fakemon received new textures, there's now 6 starters instead of 3, tons of new puzzles, crafting, and a TON more!

Planned Future Changes for the Next Update!


All difficulties will be tweaked. Casual Style will be renamed to "Normal" Style and will play a lot more similarly to a normal Pokemon experience. "Moderate" Style will be adjusted to be the middle ground between "Normal" and "Challenging". "Challenging" will remain fairly unchanged in difficulty; however, Terrmodren and Saturn will be getting a buff.

There will be a new Difficulty added called "Nightmare" which will be extremely painful. It will also give even more rewards than "Challenging" Style.

"Challenge" Style was supposed to be "challenging, but fair. This difficulty was designed to prevent the Players Party from being One Shot by Opponents and to prevent the Player from One Shotting the Opponent. This style also heavily requires knowledge of Dark Rifts Systems and typing.

"Normal" Style (Previously Casual) will no longer lower opponent levels as heavily and will rely less on Dark Rifts new core Systems. Example: All Pokemart Prices have been brought back to Normal Pokemon Pokemart prices. The Capture Rate will be Normalized to Pokemon standards as well (Possibly even increased).

"Nightmare" Style will be the new Hardest Style in the game. It's very similar to Challenge mode; however, all opponents are possibly 1 level even higher than in Challenge mode. This Style will not try to prevent your Pokemon from being One Shot and will punish bad type match ups. Non-Supereffective attack damage will be reduced by 25%.

==============================================

GENERAL CHANGES:

EXP Changes:
Exp gains across All Difficulties has been increased by a substantial amount. This isn't like a small 2% increase. All exp increases were adjusted per difficulty because of the Level Differences. Grinding is NOT difficulty and Dark Rift was Never Designed to be a game where Grinding is the focus for these Difficulties.

LEVEL Caps:
To compensate for the increase in exp gains All Gyms will have a Level Cap before you beat them. Starting with a Soft Cap (Cuts exp in half) then a Hard Cap (where exp stops) this is to prevent Players from Over Leveling, but to help Players level up their other Pokemon fast so they may take them on their Journey. This has been put in place to Stop Grinding, but keep Dark Rift balanced.

New MODIFIERS:
-Poke Death: When fainted Pokemon cannot be revived; however can be revived for a price.
-Match Game: Non-Supereffective attacks are reduced by 25% for the Player.
-Possibly more modifiers to come

WILD Encounters:
-Route 100 and 100 (East) have had a bump in level as they were useless on Challenge mode when caught.
-All Routes will have less Grass and Reduced Encounter Rates to prevent annoying encounters.
-New Fakemon introduced into 4.5 Routes to improve on encounter diversity.

=================================================

Extra Notes:

-We want Dark Rift to be able to be a fun and enjoyable experience for all players! Dark Rift and all of these changes to Dark Rift are far from perfect, but we're doing are best and we've been listing to all the feedback so far! If there's more feedback you'd like to give, feel free to hit us up in the Dark Rift Discord Chat!
Dark Rift Discord!

-Some of these changes listed above are subject to change; However, we will put the Final Massive List of Patch Notes on the Wiki once they're Official and in the game!

-These are Only SOME of the Changes planned.



-Stay tuned for more info on the Next Update 4.75 (It's called 4.75 as a Quarter increase to the 5th Update)

Alright 4.76 is out! 4.76 is just a patch to address some of the bugs in the current version, nothing too special. The next update will most likely be the big 5.0 which will be sometime next year!

Download: Dark Rift 4.76 Link
