god I wish they would make more ranger and mystery dungeon games

[@FrogHoarder]

As great as Ranger was, it was created to display the gimmick of the stylus. I would love a sequel, but I just can’t see it working out well

[@zephra1675]

Shadows of Almia was actually my first ever game (helped learning to read). I’ll admit though, even if stylus’s come back on a new device, the circle shaped damage on DS screens probably means there won’t be any more :/ My one DSlite still has faint circle marks on the screen though XD

[@rucksack_kh]

It would be better than what they're putting out now ngl

[@BJGvideos]

​@@FrogHoarderMobile. And not "a mobile game" with the worst of it, but a regular Ranger game, only it's on mobile.

[@vincenthaynes3603]

we haven't seen a new entry in either series since Super Mystery Dungeon in 2015

[@IosLocarth]

Honestly one of the neatest things from this game was the dungeons that would have static floors in between the random layout ones. It really helped make dungeons feel seperate from each other and i really wish theyd bring this bavk and expand upon it

[@Aeenjyl]

I agree completely.

[@alittlelostinthemoment6677]

Gates to Infinity was my first PMD-Game. I loved it dearly as a kid, even though I could never quite beat it. Is it stellar? No. But it holds a special place in my heart.

[@Aeenjyl]

Gates to Infinity was my first PMD Game too. I enjoyed every millisecond of it before I lost it and didn’t beat the game on it. Eventually, I bought another one and played the entire game from the beginning. I never expected the kind of impact it would have had on my heart for years to come.

[@thefreshestmango1106]

Its was my first PMD game as well. I got to the postgame and lost my game as I was doing the Meloetta. My team was Pikachu and a Tepig I let my brother name(THEMISS, Yes all caps). Man I miss that game.

[@j.corbygaming]

Gates to Infinity was my first Mystery Dungeon game, I liked it, but yea its not the best. Also Serperior is Superior. Keep it up man!

[@justalpha9138]

Serperior is my favorite Pokemon aside from Pikachu. :)

[@Aeenjyl]

As a coincidence, Snivy and Pikachu were the Pokémon I chose in Gates to Infinity. As a coincidence, I chose the exact same Player and Partner for Super Mystery Dungeon.

[@justalpha9138]

@@Aeenjyl Snivy and Pikachu... Pikachu is my favorite Pokemon, while Snivy has my favorite evolution branch and starter set of any Pokemon, with Serperior being my second favorite Pokemon (it would be number one if Pikachu doesn't exist). :)

[@Aeenjyl]

@@justalpha9138 Same here. 👍 Pikachu are my favorite cute Pokemon overall, while fully evolved Snivy are my favorite competitive Pokemon in both the main series and mystery dungeon series games. Choosing one of them as my player truly is a difficult decision.

[@justalpha9138]

@@Aeenjyl I go Snivy for the player, and then something else for the partner. I'm DX, I just rolled with the quiz results, but chose a Chikorita as my partner. Chikorita is SOOO good in that game

[@selenalulamoon1167]

This game had its flaws but this was the Era of gen 5 when gamefreak was trying to mix up the series formula. I'd say what they added for extra content succeeded. I adored the paradise system and the dungeon outer levels. But the one mission at a time really hampered it. The slow text speed was just annoying but not detrimental. The story was decent. Alittle darker than the first game but on par with sky. The twist of munna was neat. I think a big part of the hate is the gen 5 hate that was common at the time and since this was a spin off people didn't think to give it a second chance.

[@selenalulamoon1167]

If they remade this and removed the one mission at a time thing. Added more starters and upped the text speed but changed little else it'd be fantastic.

[@selenalulamoon1167]

It's the weakest of the series but what it got right it got really right.

[@tofuuwu7352]

Honestly, I tried to play it, but the dungeon gameplay. The dungeons look ugly too. The game is too slow and the mons are too static, their animations are horrible, etc.

[@ednorthon]

When the world needed him the most, he returned... 2 weeks later than expected but still

[@Aeenjyl]

it’s amazing to see his return

[@blazie42069]

I think this game definitely needs a remake Gates I think has arguably the best story in the series but it needs more postgame, difficulty and QOL and pokemon variety

[@frosted_glaceon5513]

I enjoy Gates. It has a lot of flaws but I mostly enjoyed it regardless. I love being able to play as your recruits and grinding through missions to get items. Not only is playing as other Pokemon quite fun, but it helps if you run out of items and the experience rolls over as well if you find yourself struggling in the story under leveled. Super didn't even give you the option to do more missions or go to other dungeons if you were stuck in the Story.

[@Aeenjyl]

I agree completely. Being able to grind through missions made the final boss much easier that I made to to Level 50 before I even fought the final boss of the main story.

[@wolfherojohnson2766]

I love Gates to Infinity. I don’t see why it gets so much hate, especially considering how well written the characters are. It’s also got plenty of nuance with its messages, like with Gurdurr’s message about it not mattering if you can’t do something as well as you could before. I feel like people only put it down because it both came after Sky and doesn’t allow you to take multiple missions in one go.

[@digifreak90]

I will say, given that the only way to obtain the building materials for the facilities is through missions, the inability to take multiple missions at once (in which this is the only game in the series where you can only take one mission at a time) is a fairly sizable downside as it adds a bunch of unnecessary grinding.

[@Kai-uj8tg]

speaking of messages, my main gripe with the game was that the text speed was so slow??

[@sweetwolfsteve5583]

There's a lot wrong with gti 1. Lack of starters/ diversity almost every Mon was from gen 5 2. The storyline and dialog was super super slow 3. You could only take one mission at a time 4. The boss was super easy 5. Post game qas locked behind a paywall

[@StarrNOM]

For me, I didn’t enjoy its presentation or gameplay that much. The overworld itself felt strangely muddy to me, even after you renovate the land, the dungeon designs were super forgettable, and the lack of a post game where you recruit bosses (my favorite part of a PMD game) really sucks. The limited roster of Pokémon in general really hampers the experience imo.

[@celestirr]

​As someone who played Rescue Team and Explorers... I can answer why my own hate with two words. Basic Attack. The way I learned to play the original games with item conservation and careful planning died horribly and paved the way for item and move spamming. It felt so utterly different in how the game functioned despite minimal but key things getting changed that I couldn't finish the game. The new changes getting pushed into the newer games like DX kept me from buying them as well.. which is.. very sad.

[@aidenshimmin5784]

The legend returns!

[@Aeenjyl]

The viewer returns!

[@dylandeleon2671]

Always great to watch these. Much appreciation in the time you put in to these

[@Aeenjyl]

Agreed in every way.

[@imSethy]

I’ve been playing this game off and on for two years and don’t want to spoil it so thank you for giving me the motivation to finish so I can watch the rest of this

[@SnehaR1309]

Absolutely love your videos! 🫶🏾

[@stepsz2232]

You’re great. This was my first Pokémon game. Even though I don’t play games much anymore, I think you’re really cool 💪

[@alan3998]

i'm also giving this game another chance and it's actually been pretty fun so far i don't know why i hated it to the degree that i did all those years ago

[@Aeenjyl]

I don’t know why either but it turned out to be a really good story

[@fatking428gameplay]

Bro made it to the great glacier without sephiroth stabbing in his party members

[@Narwhalcat]

Wow, I played the entirety of this game back in the day, but I cannot remember 95% of the things that happened. This was a nice reminder and a tiny stroll down memory lane

[@gghabes4643]

overall I think rescue team, and explorers are just the best PMD games, but gates to infinity is honestly one of my favorites. Something about it is just so nice idk what it is. It felt like a good story, some obvious plot twists but overall I quite liked it

[@alakazamlover4908]

the reason you can only take 1 mission at a time is because the bittercold wanted to draw in all our negative emotions to make itself stronger honestly the 1-mission at a time thing is probably the worst part about Gates to infinity, if they ever remake it for switch, they just need to remove that, there's no real reason for it

[@sweetwolfsteve5583]

Is that the case that's really stupid but if they do remake it thats not the only thing they need to fix in gti they need to fix the super slow pacing of the game and the lack of diversity

[@alakazamlover4908]

thats only my random guess for comedy, super mystery dungeon is fine because you can take mulitple quests and the diversity is fine to me, its gates to infinity is the worse mystery dungeon game mainly, to me, because of the '1 quest per day' gimmick which is never explained @@sweetwolfsteve5583

[@sweetwolfsteve5583]

​@@alakazamlover4908oh ok gotcha I replayed gti and immediately regretted it like 10 minutes in bc of how slow it was 😅😅

[@alakazamlover4908]

i have it on my replay list but i just cant get into it, you have to do like 3+ quests to progess the story, but only 1 a day? i feel like the real reason is because people werent ranking up a ton during the main-game, so the developers thought by slowing it down, you could rank up more? @@sweetwolfsteve5583

[@HexManiac536]

I loved gates to infinity even feeling it’s better than sky. I cared about the characters and even cried at the end where pikachu my partner says with you being back into his life it is truly paradise. ;w; I also love quagsire’s little crying sprite. The only reason gates to infinity gets hate is because how short it is but even despite that what little the game is is better than sky . To me at least

[@dracozeon_]

What phone/emulator do you use? I have the latest samsung and citra always crashes after a few minutes of gameplay

[@CompyRB]

I love these videos I hope you do one for red or blue rescue team

[@EnergyBurst2]

Funny, I too went Snivy and Pikachu, but I believe I chose them in the reverse way that you did.

[@SiebayPlays]

Gates was my first in the series, and while it is probably one of the weakest in the series, it doesn’t deserve as much hate as it gets.

[@Aeenjyl]

I completely agree with you there. Gates is truly an underrated masterpiece.

[@vampdougie]

Hes back

[@joshharding5065]

Criminal that blue/red rescue team hasn’t been done yet, it was the OG!

[@sparky6757]

25:03 ??? Gates to Infinity is the one and only game in the series that made me cry, and it did again when I revisited it a couple years ago. The others got me choked up, but that’s it. How could it possibly NOT be known for its storytelling?

[@Moma_spam2]

My first and favourite mistery dungeon game I'm sorry guys for loving it 😂😂❤️

[@itspikachutime5624]

I don’t remember this game too well but I remember being … disappointed. But maybe I’ll give it a replay, I also remember getting through it very fast … which was part of my disappointment >_> but maybe I’ll like it more now

[@Aeenjyl]

I recently replayed Gates to Infinity and would highly recommend it, as the story *more than* deserves a chance!

[@josephconover5270]

When I played this game I chose Axew and late game with Axew is STRONG. The one move that made it happen was Dual Chop and having it be upgraded so much. 2 strong hitting attacks makes it useful for single-targeted attacking. Also with having Dragon Rage early which helps a lot due to it being a fixed damage move meaning it can handle them well unless the enemy hits from a distance. Also, I at one point encountered the ONLY shiny in the game. It is a Legendary Boss and it is the only shiny that is stronger than the non-shiny version. Shiny Ho-Oh. Didn't win against it however.

[@renerivera9715]

Ah yeah I remember playing this game but not the full version the demo version

[@Aeenjyl]

I remember too

[@JunaidWolf3]

The game would have been great if they gave us more options of Pokémon to play as

[@Chowman741]

23:00 This boss fight take me 12 hours to beat due to me not having items or a way to win easily but on my winning attempt, I got Oneshotted by the frog THE FROG'S REVENGE. I had a revival seed but it did 999 dam :

[@sibusky7554]

i have never heard a single person that spoke english pronounce glacier like the second way

[@Thedragonlover95]

This game I find charming, and how it's story still holds a nice meaning. And it was mailed to me by a person I met a few years ago. And I still have it. It may not be of those of before and Super But it's good in its own way

Don’t know if you’ll see this, but your pronunciation of glacier was just fine! I actually say it the way you did originally :P

[@Radiogumdrop]

I played through all the PMD games a few years ago. GTI is definitely the weakest entry but I wouldn’t say it’s a bad game. The story is just as charming but the lack of QOL features for such a grindy game is frustrating! I wish you could do multiple requests per dungeon like the other games so you could more easily get materials

[@seeker4924]

I looooove Gates but I think I would like it more if the basic A attack was like Rescue Team and Explorers. That goes for Super and DX too

[@Aeenjyl]

I love Gates to Infinity as well!

[@callmezeldaonemoartime]

Gates to Infinity my beloved

[@montef368]

This game wasn’t the best, but it doesn’t deserve the sheer amount of hate it got. It’s got dunsparce as a major character with a really good arc. That alone gives it marks

[@Aeenjyl]

That ending was also one of the best endings, aside from Explorers being the darkest of them all.

[@Chowman741]

[@judgementbird2248]

I knew I wasn't the only one who despised the slow text speed, thank god for Citra letting me speed up just a little so that I can play at a semi normal speed while having actually decent text speed I honestly didn't like how pessimistic the start came off as, plus only one mission at a time is kinda lame, but other than that I thought it was an enjoyable play Also, honestly, I feel like a mix of a classic pokemon and a mystery dungeon game with freely going between worlds would be cool, like pokemon you catch in the other world turning into team members in the mystery dungeon world.

[@Singmen64]

I remember waiting so long for this game as a very big fan of the previous two titles. I've waited for 12pm to download it from the shop so i can play it right away. I was so hyped to play a new Mystery Dungeon only to be through in like 6-8 hours. It is very low on content in comparison. From the lack of starters and general lack of Pokemon variety, to the boring story until i saw that basically the whole postgame was locked behind a paywall... I felt so betrayed for my money and time. Before i was buying Super Mystery Dungeon i had to be sure this game has it's standard. It was finally great again. (Sky is still the best one so far.)

[@RizPlaysYTgaming]

Hated Gates to infinity so the reason I'm watching this is so I can see how it actually finishes
