    Digimon TCG is not only going as far as the show, but seems to be calling back to other Digimon properties as well. The Analog Youth Tamer card in this set is the playable character from the PS1 Digimon World game that was releases in 97 (two years before the original TV series), but they've even brought in the V-Tamer version of Taichi and the Cyber Sleuth characters.
    The franchise does a good job of trying something new while keeping some level of nostalgia with each new story. Even Frontier and Xros Wars, which aren't considered as good as other seasons, weren't necessarily bad either. (The TCG even still kept Frontier's gimmick by having Agnimon and Lobomon able to be evolved from Tamers, now only of they made a version of Masaru that was able to join the fight himself to keep up with Savers' gimmick...)

    The awesome thing about nostalgia for our generation is being able to really connect with our kids on the things we're into. My parents way back understood that I was into things like Digimon, but it wasn't something I could talk about with them. Nostalgia is a great tool to connect people across generations (although unfortunately we've seen it be a cash grab a lot over the years). I have been able to befriend and mentor (and therefore grow myself as an adult) younger friends over the years by connecting on these shared hobbies and that is a wonderful thing.

    I've heard a lot of good things about this game over the past year, other than some early supply issues. The cards look good! Nice, clean design and well-rendered artwork. Will have to check out your how-to-play video later. Regarding your question about nostalgia for today's children, for my son's generation (he's a teenager now) it's all about Roblox and Minecraft. I think TCGs need to appeal to all generations, since there are so many other forms of entertainment these days.

    I feel like digimon is doing exactly what you want card games to do. Each pack comes with 2 rares, which decreases the value of all rares, and Select few rares are over $20. If you want Max rarity of a card, then you get alternate arts, but those cards also come available in 50 cent form. The game is incredibly accessible, for instance if you want to buy a Box of this set, it's only about 50 bucks. You probably not going to get your money back, but you are going to have access to a whole lot of cards that are playable

    I've still got some of the old original Digimon cards lying around my apartment. I've had a first edition Myotismon card I bought at a small card shop sitting in my binder for at least 20 years now. I definitely feel the nostalgia watching this and seeing these old, classic designs coming back. I even just ordered a copy of the old Digimon Digital Card Battle for PS1 again to get to play a little - even if it's different from the paper card games.
    Love seeing this game going strong right now.

    Honestly my favorite purchase of the year. I got it a few months ago, and had so much fun opening it. I used to get a pack whenever I went to the warner bros. store, and I remember when they were closing the store, everything was like 75% off. So my mom just said "Grab what they have left, might as well." It was so exciting getting a lot of the rare cards back then, and I still have a lot of them (Though I wish they were in better condition and I thought about sleeves at the time.) But this set just made me remember opening packs with my brother, and we both got back into the game because of this. It's different now, but actually more fun. I'm hoping it catches on more, because I'd love to get more games in at local stores.

  • @tym6217
    @tym6217 2 роки тому +15

    Speaking of the "collectible" part of card games one of the epitomes of this back when I still played YuGiOh were ghost rares. The highest rarity cards in main series packs. I always said they were made purely for collectors. If you played a normal game with them they frankly just looked like a gross washed out silver splotch on the table. But I knew 1 person who had collected every ghost rare in the game and had binder pages full of them. And from a collector standpoint in a binder where you could hold them up to the light and turn the binder to get the full holographic 3d rainbow effect, those were some awesome looking binder pages. Certainly much nicer than when theyre just sitting on a table not catching the light or the angle right. As far as regular gameplay goes imo ultimate rares were the neatest looking foiling process not only in YuGiOh but in any card game I ever played.

    Digimon today, especially since Last Evolution Kizuna, is one of my top animated series of all time. I highly recommend everyone, even none Digimon fans check out that film. Just make sure you have a box of tissues ready.
    And thanks for highlighting such a good property on your channel, Professor. As someone who has been collecting these cards for the new game, I just want to let folks know how generous it is. For most sets, if you get 2 boxes, you'll have a full playset of all commons and uncommons and a good chunk of the rares and super rares. It is a very affordable game.

  • @twarnold14
    @twarnold14 2 роки тому +2

    The artwork for this set isn’t just in the old style. It *is* old art, either a Digimon’s official artwork or, in the case of the option cards, artwork used on a card from the original card game (hyper coliseum). So very little new art, but they know it hits those nostalgia buttons. And then they made the alt arts of the cards practically identical to frames of the original game! The Digimon TCG really has been embracing its past. Analog youth is the player character from the original Digimon World, but there are tons of references to that game in the other sets.

    A lot of the discussion about the artwork actually does happen with the LGS model for fantasy flight games. For Lord of the rings LCG for example each game piece came in the sets that they originally came in, which are constantly being reprinted. However they would release alternate artworks for the hero cards at each convention that happened throughout the year. So what happened was their were alternate artwork hero cards that became pricey in value, but they were essentially the same game pieces. It means that there is something to collect for those people who desire it, but those people are still playing the same game as everyone else.

The alternate art cards are absolutely gorgeous in this set and I couldn't have asked for more.

      Besides that just my LGS making trades, there are still some overpriced cards due to how difficult some stuff is to find such as certain promos but they at least avoided some of the problems bandais other game dragon ball super tends to run into where promos are just overly expensive right from release because they never arrived everywhere(except the diaboromon promos that we never got due to corona and most people only sell those tournament promo boosters sealed)

      @@sushiyumyumz5522 Current power creep is fine. the higher level digivolutions weren't strong enough to justify their cost. As for 4 turn game, you may want to tune your deck a bit. You can use blockers and options to prolong your losses longer.

    I just ordered a box yesterday. I found it at a super low of $47 on TCGplayer.
    Your "How to play" video got me into this and I love it. Grew up with the cartoons and the cards are a great collectable/game.

    A big thing for me was coming back to power rangers via the original source materials. I watched an anniversary season where each ranger could change into all the rangers before them. To come back and watch it and see all the suits I remembered as a kid made me feel something I hadn't felt in a while. It truly brought me back into that fandom. I even felt nostalgic for Japanese only teams. I felt that same feeling watching you open these packs.

    I love that Digimon has a TCG again. Even though I don't have anywhere nearby to play, it's a joy just to collect the cards because of the art on the cards. If local gamestores start carrying, I'll certainly be ready.

Since youtube became the TV of the 2010s generation the nostalgic ideas will be there not on tv or movies

    Literally just opened our own box of this set yesterday! Got into the game because of you Prof and it has been a lot of fun. I treat it much more like a board game than a tcg especially since it's card pool is nowhere near magics level. The game is a blast. I hope you go over the Starter decks! I think they are great for people who want to make a battle box and start playing asap :)

    • @56andru
      @56andru 2 роки тому

      @Fossil Punk Gaming yeah between my Modern deck, Legacy Deck, 5 Commander decks, and my two pokemon decks I wouldn't necessarily say price is an issue, but if certain staples are necessary. I was thinking about picking up the Veemon Startr deck and starting there. Do you know if you need to buy 3 to make a budget deck or does all come into one?

    • @56andru

    • @matheusaragao7640
      @matheusaragao7640 2 роки тому +1

      @@56andru What I like about Digimon's competitive scene is that most casual decks you build aren't really far off from competitive variants, and cards serve such a wide variety of functions, that even less expensive alternatives to other cards might find use in specific matchups or strategies. What I'm saying is there's a lot of creativity with what you can build. I personally think if you're aiming for competitive play, you should start with the Gallantmon starter deck. Digital Hazard (EX2) is releasing outside of Japan soon and it has a lot of support for the Growlmon/Gallantmon strategy. But the Veemon one can be great too, I'm just not as familiar with it personally.

    • @56andru
      @56andru 2 роки тому

      @Fossil Punk Gaming I am very much not a control player, I am sure you are familiar with magic the gathering as well, and my playstyle is more aggro like decks such as affinity before Mox Opal ban and Midrange/tempo decks. So I'll pick up Gallantmon!
