Niall and Nephele

You awaken in front of a girl named Destiny, who claims to have found you unconscious in a nearby forest. Other than your own name, all of your memories seem to be lost. With no other options, you accompany Destiny to the Vanguard Academy, a school designed to transform novice Pokémon Trainers, into professionals with the goal of defending the region from threats known as Renegades, Pokémon Trainers who refuse to abide by the new laws set in place.

Game is very good aside from the fact that it lags so much everytime i run into grass. Need asap fix
Click to expand...
What kind of lag? does the game's fps drop (becomes slower visually) when you enter a wild battle, or do you blackscreen/load for a couple seconds longer than expected after the animation when you enter a wild battle. Or does it just occur when walking through tall grass (no wild encounter involved)

Hello, I'm sorry you've encountered this error. Please make sure you've correctly installed the latest 2.0.13 patch since I have fixed this error. To fix the player being disappeared, you can try going through certain doorways as I believe most of them are marked to remove transparency

I was excited to see a game that advertises a unique soundtrack, but it's just the same songs everyone else borrows from Reborn and Rejuv, mixed with some random Pokemon and Mystery Dungeon tracks.
Rather than being epic and unique, this seems like one of the most painfully generic soundtracks I've heard.

As for the game itself, well... at least that's a different story!
Click to expand...
well honestly the soundtrack was kinda thrown on its head a little while back because some people making youtube content on the game started getting copyright striked for some music in the game.

And to be fair rejuv and reborns has a lot of copy right free music choices, but a lot of those are just place holders for now.
