POKÉMON SUPER MYSTERY DUNGEON

[Altissimo]

How are levels? Do you have to grind to keep up?

[Zeila]

All this talk about the game is making me so hyped! I won't be able to get it for another week though :/

From what I heard around on GameFAQs, there aren't many opportunities to grind (which is another reason why the story is shorter than let's say PMD2 because there is less goofing off time)

[K-NiGhT]

yeah there is like zero grinding time. It's super easy to get underleveled. It makes the last part of the game extremely difficult.

Speaking of which, I just hit Chapter 22 and man this story does not let up one bit! It's such a crazy ride from the second half on. For those of you who are still pre-Chapter 10, hold out! It's about to get better real soon!

I JUST BEAT THE GAME AND I WAS NOT PREPARED

THE TEARS ARE SO REAL

Oh, god...

I forgot about the release date and didn't pre-order it, so now it's coming on Tuesday. I'll get to play it over Thanksgiving break.

For some reason I still haven't ever played Red/Blue and GTI. Maybe I should. I know most of the story of Red/Blue and a good portion of GTI, but maybe I'll try them regardless.

Less grinding time? As in, less forced grinding time, or less grinding time completely? Because in Explorers, after the first few story missions, you could grind as long as you wanted before moving on with the story (the only exception that comes to mind is Spacial Rift, but you could store everything in the Kangaskhan Rock and keep grinding and dying).

Both.

Tbh I haven't had time to play much because I'm with family all the time this week, but even now when I'm still only in Chapter 6, I'm absolutely in love with the story. This will probably end up being my favorite Pokémon Mystery Dungeon game.

It's really, really solid. The story is great.

[Latios212]

This game... I'm crying tears of joy. Even after just a few chapters, this game is surpassing my expectations in every way possible...

[K-NiGhT]

I'm moving to a second playthrough because I want to experience this story again RIGHT NOW.

I'm moving to a second playthrough because I want to experience this story again RIGHT NOW.

Imma play through a second time too once I'm done.  This is GREAT.
Also the reason there's less grinding time is because you can only do so many missions until the story starts back up again, and once the story starts you can't go anywhere else but to the story location.  I think I did maybe 20 expeditions in all.  Probably less.

Guess who just translated Travier's ripped soundtrack into each of the PSMD songs via PSMD jukebox and then put it in order and is uploading it to a dropbox folder to share?

I documented my sleep-deprived and drunk escapades through chapters one and two on a skype chat.
And that's all I've done.
