[Meta Thread] Pokerole Mystery Dungeon: Primal Shadows

Spoiler

So 3-4 votes to continue, 1-2 to fight the snek.  Sounds like we're continuing then.  Just need relevant reactions from Kee and Kogeki in the game thread.

Alright, now that I read this again, I'm a bit confused about this: Didn't @Spiritmon actually want to Fight the Big Snek? 'Cause I recall they were interested in doing so. I changed my vote on that assumption + No One's own vote to Fight the Snek, so I'd like this clarified before any dice or scene is enacted. If I'm right then the vote actually flops to 3 Fight Snek and 2 Not Fight Snek , which is an outcome I've always been in favor of.

If we do end up continuing, I reinterated my previous point to everyone - Playing it safe too much can screw over players that desire a challenge, and leaves me feeling more bitter about Platina's Primal Point gain (since it ended up going against what I wanted out of that Spar). It's a tendency I rather be moderated eventually , or at least open to more compromise rather than a large chuck of the group getting shy about a sudden spike of difficulty/riskiness and forcing me to go against my preferences or take an unreasonable risk of going solo.

My vote was to not fight the snake, and we go our path to fight Landorus.

I'd ask what changed your mind, since you were so gung ho about it like I was despite the reveal, but if you're certain, so be it.

Also, @Spiritmon, @PhantomUnderYourDesk, and Mika, since your decision to avoid the Big Snek was mostly couched in the information I revealed through my own actions at a steep price and that said avoidance has benefited you guys far more than me imo, I say you owe me a favor. Unintentionally or not you've screwed me over even harder than was intended by Dragonstrike by using that knowledge to deny a potentially awesome Fight (that we would've done without said knowledge) and made the consequences of my plan much more sucky.  To outline why, I fought Rhyperior for XP so I'd have enough to get the 4th Point of Instinct to unlock more of my Moveset for said Big Snek fight and Lando, so you turning averse has effectively negated half the reason I done so and compounded the point of Primal I gained.

Not to sound overly woke or dramatic, but you have ended up taking advantage of me in a lopsided manner mates, so I expect parity between us to be achieved in the future.

Okay. I can think of several IC reasons for Karen helping Platina, so I will make good on that favor.

@Dragonstrike, if I may ask: Out of curiosity, what would the reward range have been if we had taken on the G-Max Sandaconda?

Also, I'm going to be going on another trip Sept. 27th and should be back Oct. 9th. I might be able to check in on my phone, but will otherwise be afk for that period. Hopefully it won't be an issue with the current pacing of the game, but should it need to happen, feel free to auto Karen during that timeframe.
