- After 3000 years since the Next Order video, the next episode in the Digimon vide game series is finally here. Today I'm covering the Digimon game that brought the video game brand back to the west, Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth.

Cybersleuth was definitively a step in the right direction, it felt like I was playing Shin Megami Tensei, I mean cmon, the style, music and the somewhat dark story really felt good.
On that note, I'm also happy for the new TCG that came 2 years ago. There are so many fans out there, feels good man :)
Well alot of its style is very in line with digimon, digimon has actually always been a series that covers dark topics despite being for kids/teens.
It also helps this game á the Devil Survivor spin-offs have the same lead artist.
I just wish i could play digimon tcg online.. digimon tcg aint really a thing in germany
Yep gotta love its bgm. I even have them as an OST in my smartphone! .flac files at that!
Great video, i was always hoping cyber sleuth would push digimon games to be more popular since i always had hope for the franchise (more the games then the anime's) ether way i hope they release more game like this in future or a new digimon rumble arena type game
I do think it did actually make the games a bit more popular which is great to see. Ive heard mumblings of another story game in the future which im excited for. A new rumble arena would be sick too.
@@BobbyHopp oh it sure did yes, i just remember being so hyped for this back in the day and kept also hoping for a great fighting game to follow but who knows! cool that they are mumblings of a new story game though! :D
It was announced that a new digimon story game focusing on the Olympos 12 was in development a while ago but they did not give a release date or anything like that
I'm really looking forward to that game! the Olympus 12 getting their own game has been a long time coming.
@@BobbyHopp there's also something about them having another Cyber sleuth in development which I believe would be separate from the Olympus 12 game cuz that game was confirmed like twice already but during the digimon they weren't sure if they wanted to do another installment in that series unless the fans wanted it
I can't believe after all these years I finally remember that one digimon game where you fight with swords, I was a fan of digimon before I even realized!
Its Digimon World 4 for your own curiosity, Im not a big fan of it myself but if you like it thats all the power to you and I'm glad I helped you remember it lol.
I had no idea that it was fan outcry that got Cyber Sleuth translated. I grabbed it randomly one day on sale and really enjoyed it.
Great video!
I'm sure there were many factors at play of course but the fan outcry was certainly the thing that broke the dam on getting the series back in the west. Glad to hear you enjoyed it thanks for commenting!
@@BobbyHopp Being a digimon fan since I was a kid, I definitely saw a lot less games being made for the American audience. But it really seems like the nostalgia wave has finally hit digimon with its resurgence lately in the US. Hopefully we'll see more products and games in the future!
Survive is having a bumpy start but is still good and there's gonna be a new story game likely announced soon too so this series is gonna (hopefully) thrive
Digimon feels like shin megami tenseis little brother and i absolutely love it for that i havent played survive yet but i hear it has a darker tone and that gets me excited to play it. I belive much of digimons fans are older now and i dont think theyre really bringing in a lot of younger people so it makes sense
mainly the recent story games can feel similar to the smt series but digimon games bounce around through all kinds of styles so I wouldnt say to go into other digimon games expecting that. I am enjoying survive alot so far but even for that its part VN part strategy rpg and alot different.
@@BobbyHopp yeah, i first played digmon world 3 when i was like 10 and had no idea what was going on played a few games over the years just happy digimon is still going and were getting games. Youre right. Im not sure how it fairs overseas with children though but i think more serious darker tone story is the way to go. The gameplay is quite different, but the reasons i say that is how in some of the smt games demons are just digital data being brought into the human world. I enjoy both but smt is my favorite series so anything like that gets my interest
@@BobbyHopp
Even if they don't always play completely similarly the apparent similar themes and inspiration it takes from SMT is tangible even in the older titles though. Looking back on it, the initial treatment of Data, Virus, and Vaccine prior to the rock/paper/scissors mechanic as seen with the 3 factions in World 2 feels like a simplified nod towards Chaos, Neutral, and Order, and even the affinity system to acquire teammates through gifts in 2 might be inspired partly by the negotiation system too so they've always taken after SMT to some extent.
It's just the narrative is leaning more towards it now too, and outright adapting similar gameplay loops (Cyber and Hacker play similarly and have an inventory system similar to current SMT combat and team composition, which again I think 2 had somewhat as well, and Survive mixing in isometric grid combat often seen in stuff like FE but also the original Persona games and having what is essentially outright demon negotiation and morality systems like in SMT). Some designs of the digimon themselves feel like nods too, and Mamemon feels like the Jack Frost of the series, even more than Agumon but that's just a general mascot thing.
I do see what you mean though. The first World was straight up 3D tomagachi - the game, 2 was procedural dungeon crawling with 3 on 3 combat, the 3rd game was a traditional turn based 1 on 1 rpg with armor and accessory slots and everything, and 4 was an isometric semi-freeroam hack and slash with very minimal story. 4 games in the same named digimon series, none of which played the same. And that's not even counting the smash clone rumble arena games and other side things. Digimon is incredibly varied, sometimes to the appreciation of fans and newcomers and sometimes less so.
This game is so good to play...they did very well in this game. Simply because it took mechanics from other successful Digimons and put it in this one, and despite being a simple idea, for me, there is no better idea.
Cyber Sleuth was my introduction to Digimon, and playing a more plot-focused monster tamer for once was pretty refreshing. Interested to hear your take on Digimon Survive
I'm gonna try and get to survive by September and its gonna be likely pretty positive given that I want to counter act some of the bad press this game has gotten.
Interesting to hear your point about how this game serves as such a good entry and reintroduction of the Digimon series, especially compared to Next Order. I would have assumed the nostalgia factor to Next Order having the original Digimon World style of game (and a more distinct gameplay) would have been the better option, although I admittedly had never experienced or even heard of the Story games on DS until a couple years back, and your strong case here convinced me that Story truly was the best option for the Digimon popularity revival we see today.
Awesome video with great coverage of the topic and some real neat ideas on how you'd improve upon the formula. I have heard that a new Digimon Story game is being considered so hopefully they'll come to the same conclusion on how to improve it as you have here. Also real neat to hear a little bit on how original Vita version worked.
I actually asked why the first Cyber Sleuth was delisted and they said they didn't need to keep it up because Hackers Memory was out and the newer/ better game. Such BS
thats so stupid theyre different games??? Bandai Namco dosent treat this series well enough.
I previously finished the game and its sequel on PSV and switch, now I'm on my 3rd playthrough on steam. I gotta say, the sheer amount of mons that you can build into makes every playthrough a somewhat fresh experience, I have completely different teams for all of my playthroughs while keeping Kentaurosmon in all of them since hes my favorite :) Really wished that survive had more digimon variety, I played it recently for a week and got tired of the repetitive encounters. That game had a great story, but for a game that was in development for so incredibly long, the amount of digimons that can be raised is hilariously small. Survive was addictive the first time through, but for its high price, its replayability is just way too low compared to cybersleuth, especially after figuring out and experiencing all the routes. Now I'm just wishing that Bandai can make another one of these new digimon story games in the near future, especially seeing how it's received so well by Japanese as well as western fans
Digimon World 3 back in the day definitely kept digimon in the back of my mind, and cyber sleuth and hackers memory won me over
I played both Sleuth and hacker memory a while ago and I loved Hacker memory more but I throughly loved Sleuth. the story might be odd but I loved it. Nokia was probably my favourite when I saw her grow. I'm really glad that people supported to create this and it makes me really happy that everyone got this made. hope you have a great rest of the year, Bobby. thank you for the video
I actually like hackers more myself and that video is gonna be out soon too. Glad to hear you enjoyed the game and thank you for the support!
the story is not that odd its slice of life with digital creatures that impact humans daily lives like japanese yokai did :3
Cyber Sleuth was very fun, I ended up swapping to hard difficulty later on and was still stomping the game (including the sins) outside of one or two weird difficulty spikes. Despite this however I liked that it helped me develop favourite digimon in the series, I came across a lot I wasn't aware of that I ended up unexpectedly liking. Also I agree that WarGreymon is very broken, though as a former competitive Pokemon player it wasn't hard to adapt that knowledge to make new strategies with Cyber Sleuth's mechanics. Stat buffs are great
Congrats on not mentioning the word "Persona" once throughout this review. Its hard not to make the comparison seeing how much the shoe fits. Cyber Sleuth is an absolutely fantastic game that I adore but it does have a major flaw in having no skip button, so on repeat playthroughs you have to sit through everything and it can take forever to get past the beginning parts. Something that has put me off repeat playthroughs despite how much this very video in fact makes me want to go back and play the game, because its that good.
I genuinely love persona as a series but tbh outside of it being a jrpg theres not enough to warrant a comparison tbh. I also know people are tired of Persona comparisons as well.
It's honestly closer to the Shin Megami Tensei series proper than it is to persona as far as RPG mechanics go.
@@Yunglex313 Well, Soul Hackers has a similar setting and the first bad guy is a rock star too xD
maybe sleuth was the real soul hackers 2 all along....
He DID mention SMT,which is close enough,but most Bandai games are similar to each other. DMW2 was its own style but as with ANY jrpg,they had similar aspects for monster raising (and yes even personas/demons$ as that of Persona/SMT in terms of monster grinding & synthesis,opposed to Pokémon or Monster Rancher.
Cyber sleuth is the reason why I have been waiting for a new story game for ages, and there is one on the way that has been in development since 2017.
According to habu the story and world saga are the two main line of digimon games nowadays, survive (without mentioning all the problems it had with its development) was supposed to be a side project only to make time for that game. If I had to guess we'll probably be hearing news about it next year.
And just to mention, I know a lot of people expect a cyber sleuth 2, but habu has also confirmed that the next story title has nothing to do with the cyber sleuth universe. I loved both titles, but sometimes enough is enough.
Yeah I agree theyve done enough with sleuth and even if they did do a 2 itd likely be a new world/setting.
Personally I'd love to see another story game with a setting akin to digimon world 2/dusk and dawn where it's a pre-established world we start in already as a member.
I've even heard some rumors itll be the digimon Olympus 12 themed which would be sick.
@@BobbyHopp oh, about that, that's not a rumor, habu has revealed only a bit of information about the next story game, since he didn't want to talk much about future projects before the release of survive.
This is what we know about it thanks to him, the new story game will take place in a new universe, the focus of the story will revolve around Olympus XII and it will take place in the real world and the digital world, not the cyber space this time around.
Hey that sounds sick thank you for the info!
I'm personally looking for the next Story game to have all the rpg mechanics of cybersleuth but the plot of Survive. Plot being something similar to the adventure season (1st digimon season) where a group of kids fall into the digital world and end up adventure all across the world going through trials, tribulations, and building friendships.
I also hope that the next story game is open world-esque similar to Pokemon Legends Arceus. Also keeping all of the intricacies of cybersleuths RPG system (allowing a bunch of digimon, all the digimon from cybersleuth still available, and tons of evolution lines). On top of all that I hope for the game to have the same thought and care put into its translation that Survive did.
That would honestly be my dream game. I don't think I'd play anything else for a very long time. Currently in chapter 8 in hacker's memory. The games good don't get me wrong, but it is frustrating seeing how bad it was localized in terms of dialogue. I also really crave an experience in the digital world. Definitely the reason why I like survive so much.
In General I do think Bamco is very cheap when it comes to the Digimon Franchise. They skimp out on so many features and technology and treat Digimon like the step child of their franchises. Take the Vital Bracelet for example. The product is maybe worth $15 with the tech it has. It's clunky, it has a horrible strap, its just a cheaply made product. You can get smart watches for $50 that are years above in tech compared to the Vital Hero. The Vital Hero is like 65 bucks.
Good to know cuz the Bandai release schedule didn't show the Olympus game but another Cyber sleuth
For anyone that hasnt played these, play it, you will LOVE IT
Great video, love these games, the only other digimon game I played is the world one on ps4/ps5, hardly play it because not 100% sure how every gimmick works in it. I got the hackers one on PlayStation and got the switch hackers game which is great
if only they have an option to skip scenes. i would replay the hell out of this game
yeah its kinda weird it dosent, I dont mind because I only replay them once in awhile but hopefully future story games have the skip, the newest game survive does have one though which is nice.
Having gotten used to the Complete Edition on Switch, I forgot that WarGreymon was one of, if not the only, Mega with a piercing move in vanilla Cyber Sleuth.
If the spotlight on this series shines bright enough, we can finally get actual competition for pokemon, since, you know.
Cyber sleuth has a unique attack animation for literally every digimon, some of em full on cutscenes, along with a unique victory Anim. And up to 3 can walk beside you wich is their own Anim.
And in battle they even have unique knockdowns, with more interesting mechanics to boot
People have been begging for all these features for years, meanwhile digimon continues to add more each game
15:05 This... I got wiped by Dynasmon a couple times, he mopped the floor with my party and even after leveling I spent more time trying to land a hit between heals, a hit that would do a tiny fraction of his HP, then my LadyDevimon evolved to Lilithmon and... well, he and Leopardmon got one shot, my final party lineup was Sakuyamon, Mastemon and Lilithmon, Sakuyamon removes their buffs and buffs my team, Mastemon heals and does AoE, Lilithmon is an absolute steamroller, only had to use a few more members on the very final boss and because I was... unaware of one part of the fight and made it longer than it should have
If you play a PC version, there is a mod that released recently that give every digimon signature attack a piercing ability. So i think most mega digimon are good now :>
I love the "if everything is broken nothing will be" approach lol.
It also shows how its good to have these games come to steam so modders can help round some things out.
Is their skip button sama
Speaking of soundtrack, I noticed early on that you use some from Digimon World 3, specifically the one from the admin building that you start at and the Gondola station between the East and the South Sector.
There's also the town theme from Digimon World Next Order which itself is based on the town theme from the original Digimon world
Mastemon is my favourite, her main attack takes a solid 25% of all enemies current health, regardless of resistances and given she digivolves from ladydevimon and angewomon, you also have some decent aoe or single target attacks in light or dark, plus the healing abilities from angewomon including the ability to revive your allies.
My starter digimon was actually Palmon, who I raised over the course of the game into Rosemon Burst Mode.
Lol I had BeezlemonBM who also had a ignore DEf move and that shit was great xD. I love the cyber sleuth games and the Next order took me a while to get really into because the mechanics were hard but with the help of some guides I learned that in order to get the digimon stronger you had to do battles over gym trainning and it had to be done when they were rookies. The other evolutions had stat caps. The digimon cyber sleuth being removed from the psn was such a bummer for me and it solidify my reasoning to always try and get physical games over digital ones.
Definitely a good game and unique in it's gameplay.
when you said "by end game it felt like most my digimon xept one were useless" and then i was like "huh? 80 percent of my team was useful wym-"
"its cuz AP moves become basically mandatory by end game"
and i went "0oooooh, my whole team had AP"
yeah the experience varies alot based off team members, its currently in development but in hackers I had a much easier time because i had alot more pierce mons.
@@BobbyHopp yeah, in my case, i noticed it early on when i got durandamon from my starter that "uh, hes kinda underwhelming"
so i turned him into alphamon ouryuken,
and i basically did this to everything on my team that didnt have int pierce or def pierce except for the support mons,
also accel boost is cracked lol
(also cuz hard mode is basically impossible without max level stage 2 megas)
>when ulforce vdramon is best used as a support unit you KNOW something is wrong
Absolutely loved cyber sleuth and hackers memory, my favourate digi games since digimon world 2003, and loved hearing the lobby theme from digimon world 2003 at the start of the video
My only real complaint is Nokia gets both my favorite digimon and theyre evolutions..... And they did do little with her lol. Mc energy gone to waste 😂
I think it partially comes down to one of the problems I mention in the video where the game has alot of the cast do things/develop off screen and its like damn she got omnimon doing shit off screen and we dont even get to see it lol.
Platinum Sukamon, Platinum Numemon and EXP USB break the game. You’re welcome.
This game was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO good. I just had a blast raising my favorite guys and formed a team of 'da boyz' just to save the world and stuff. The Switch version had way more Digimon choices, but didn’t run as well as the PS4 version to me. I still enjoy both, and would likely go back to the PS4 one despite not having the complete edition on it, but either one is something I highly recommend.
Da Boyz were: MegaGargomon, ShineGreymon Burst Mode, Lotosmon, MetalEtemon, MetalSeadramon, Magnadramon, Gaiomon, Machinedramon, GranKuwagamon, MirageGaogamon Burst Mode, and WereGarurumon. (PS4, the team on my Switch hasn't finalized yet, but it is on the way, and going faster than with my PS4 version.)
Cannot wait to do Hacker's Memory afterwards.
Also, we have Kyoko as the Waifu.
I still hate the fact that Next Order is exclusive only to PS4, if only they would make it into the other platform like Cyber Sleuth...
I would love it if next order got a pc/switch port
I remeber signing the petition back in middle school and waiting for the game to come out a few years later. Banger game
I did not expect how good the soundtrack was for this game, "welcome to this wonderful place" (which plays when your character logs into eden) and "digital wars" (the random encounter theme" are fantastic examples.
Deputymon is my favorite digimon. Big flaw not having him in game.
deputy mon was too powerful for the vita and sadly could not be incorporated
I've only recently got a PS4 and have found both Cyber Sleuth games pretty easily and pretty cheap! But, since I'm having a spot of bother finding it, I found World Next Order on PSN and it's on offer, about £6-odd, so I went and got a top-up, jus to buy it! I've also been loving the new TCG (even if I didn't know they were even planning on making one, let alone that it had been released until I saw it been played at my local OTS store...), so, cuz I play a D-Brigade/Chaosdramon-themed build (that I like to call "Dramon-Brigade"), I picked Hagurumon, even though I don't run it cuz Toyagumon makes Mekanorimon dumb!
switch is the best version. both games linked, and all dlc, and preorder dlcs
Dudeeee that Digimon world 3 music hit me in the soullllll
dude the games music is so good for background music, I have even more in the next video
Prefer the VN of Survive and the pacifist options and befriending and prefer the system through dialogue like #UnderTale and want more of those and with well thought out psychology of the characters and to make them as emotionally and plausibly fullfiling and want them to guilt us out of immorality and brainrotting chronic button mashing, grinding and gen*cide and farming?
Digimon Survive just recently released and it had caught my interest, I'd never been into Digimon but the game looked pretty good to me but I definitely didn't want to pay that full price tag. I saw Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth complete edition on the Switch E-Shop on sale for like €10 so basically long story short I'm a die hard Digimon fan now. Honestly it was the main music theme that sold me immediately, couldn't resist buying the game after that but the gameplay itself was addictive!
There’s upsides and downsides to it depending on the person.
It’s a visual novel with some degree of gameplay, so depending upon how you feel about visual novels you’ll either love or hate it.
@@yuishishido8780 be honest now it is like 80% Visual novel and can't wait to play it later this year
Digimon was always a periphery series to me. I didn’t watch the anime regularly, since I was stuck mostly with reruns. I did have the movie on VHS and I enjoyed it greatly as a kid, but I didn’t go much deeper than that. Then I got this game and the evolution system was so much fun that I’m now looking for ways to watch the anime, and looking for the card game!
Something else I really appreciate about the Digimon Story games is that they remember that the Digimon is set in an infinite multiverse (DS and Dawn contain Cameos from Adventure and Data Squad) and this game contains references and/ or has you meeting characters in it's DLC (which I believe are automatically included in the Complete edition) from the V-1 Manga, Re:Digitize game, and has this game's MC (Aiba) actually dealing with the fallout from the Digimon World Dusk game, by providing support to that game's MC (Sayo). The references are crazy!
Yes this is a great point too! I love digimons willingness to do and be anything from series to series game to game, but then also still include cameos and things from other universes.
funnily enough this is also a small part of the coming Hackers Review too
Cyber Sleuth was actually the game that came with the confirmation that the Digimon Multiverse is infinite has an infinite number of universes,timelines,parallel worlds that branch infinitely through infinitely branching space-time one world for each possible possibility of wich we know from Mirei during ReDigitize that there are an endless number of and from the same game through the Memorial Stela, who are located through the Digital World and aim to collect all the information available through the flow of data around. This information is stored and used to construct calculations, literally endless possibilities of worlds through a "bottomless pit" of data where all of this is manifested each world being a different space-time that do not interact. Cyber Sleuth also severely upgraded the cosmology introducing ultradimensions and ultradimensional space like the World of the Eaters. The worlds of the same nature as the World of the Eaters are so beyond everything in the cosmology that they are no longer considered as higher dimensional but ultradimensional.They're higher dimensions that extend beyond an infinite number of worlds (multiverse/multiverses), which are more complex, beyond all concepts of time, beyond our understanding, our imagination, and even our ability to comprehend that we cannot and should not ever be able to access. Even Yggdrasil with omnipotent computing power can only detect but not interact with these worlds.The Eaters, who inhabitant one of these higher dimensions with "ultradimensional space", have no concept of limits,time and boundaries and they exist in all dimensions.Everything is below these higher worlds with "ultradimensional space". Every multiverse, every infinite dimension, every higher dimension (with higher dimensional space), everything. That's why it's called ultradimensional According to Suedō, the Eaters higher world (with the ultradimensional space) and all the Digimon cosmology up to it are only a small part of the Great Intent,the name that Suedo gives to the system of existence from which everything we have seen so far is only a "part".
I agree cause it got a re-release in an era where the jrpg crowd got more open up to other ones that aren't Pokémon or even Persona. Which got another game to add to the list, especially with Complete Edition being released on Steam and the Switch.
It also helps that the characters were interesting, the npcs and their text dialogue. Not to mention the Digimon themselves that had charm to their anime counterparts.
I also think enough time had past that a majority of people who wanted to disregard it as a pokemon clone had gained a few more brain cells too
Its really sad when WarGreymon's damage is 2-3x than a fusion or god level digimon. The balance of this game was just aweful. Not to mention the side moves were so poorly tuned even if a move had type advantage it was 9/10 times better to use a signature move. Still loved the "training" aspect of it
If it was between PC and Switch… I’d prefer the PC one personally. Switch had some odd changes… Like SistermonNoir being changed to SistermonBlue or something like that.
Like… Why?
So PC should be closest to what it should be.
I was lucky to get a physical copy of Cyber Sleuth though.
Hackers memory is a top contender for my favourite game though because the story.
You should review digimon survive
Im gonna try and get to that by September if I can!
ngl, if they continue stories with this format, and hell even improve on it for modern hardware, i would drop pokemon in a heartbeat
The world games definitely not my cup of tea but story games take what is good about pokemon and make it even better!
Next order had a great story but I hated the gameplay of ur digimon dieing. Cyber sleuth and hackers memory was epic. Survive is good tho. But cyber sleuth is the best right now.
I love next order but its definitely not for everyone and only crazy people like me.
PS1 Digimon games hit different
they do, just replayed digimon world 1 the past few weeks and despite some aging or clunk here and there it was still a great time.
record the entire game, mix in some digivolution clips from the various Digimon animes and you got one hell of a Digimon movie.
BOBBY YEAAAAAAAH LETS GOOO
Digimon world 2003 best game for me. Loved how you included the music from 2003 in your video.
I love digimon world 3 and honestly its ost is perfect for background music in videos.
@@BobbyHopp if cyber sleuth was more like 2003 it would have surpassed it but I think they didn’t want it to be too much like the Pokémon franchise.
I love these games and survive but I hate digimon world next order 😭 I’ve never muted a game’s sound or music before, I’m still trying to finish it tho, but I play once every few months.
Next Order is a game that isnt certainly for everyone, I love it alot but im also a weirdo
@@BobbyHopp i really enjoy it when I understand the game haha but I feel like half of the time I get Digimon I don’t want or idk what to do 🤣 I finally started building more things in the city tho, but I dislike the music and the digimon making sounds haha I feel anxious when I hear them.
Any recommendations so I can enjoy it more ? I’ve heard that the more advance you are in the story the digimon will die less and ask for food less idk something like that.
9:59 the pac is BAAAAAAAAAAACK!
This was my first Digimon Game after playing rumble in the ancient times. I def revisit to play the story again. I recommend it to anyone. 8/10
When I only had the vita I played this shit out of this game lol
Went through like 3 new game+ lmao
Then when I got the switch I finally got my hands on the complete edition and it was great :)
I recently started playing these games on the switch
I hope you enjoy them!
Awesome job on the vid man! Very very well done 😁
I need to make my youtube videos too. I'm just not smart enough to start it or know how to talk.
I want more Digimon rpg games. I'm already almost done with survive and I'm already suffering from withdrawals
Amazing video man
can u tell me the ost that u used in the beginning of this video and the hackers memory one too ? they are really cool and i tried searching in every digimon game and anime osts and couldn't find them :/
Hi amazing commenter,
both tracks are from digimon world 3
Magami Online Center
east and south station
sorry these old videos dont have ost labeled i try to do that for my more recent ones.
im glad you appreciated digimon world 3s soundtrack
Just watched your World Next Order and Cyber Sleuth videos and looking forward to what you do next. Any chance of you making a video on Survive after Hacker’s Memory? I’d be interested to hear your thoughts as a Digimon fan, even if you’re not someone into visual novels or tactical RPGS. (Admittedly, I’m not a fan of either but am heavily enjoying what Survive has to offer). Great video!
I'll be trying to get a survive video out in september actually, this audio was actually created last october which is why it lacks a survive mention but its coming!
I literally just started playing this game, lets gooooo
I ended the game and my Kerpymon (Evil) felt seriously so overpowered. Never left the main party cause he has an INT-piercing special move. Literally would almost one shot everyone.
yeah the pierce moves are just crazy strong
I think Cyber Sleuth really kicked everything off for Digimon to come back to the west and tbh also came out at the perfect time for people who were tired of Pokemon and wanted something much more mature. It's not even like a huge leap but oh my god does it do so many things better than a lot of the games similar to it
Switch has both games in a bundle together and is only 50 bucks. Goes on sale a lot too. In fact, a sale just ended where it was 15 bucks.
Yup, in the video I mention how the dual pack goes on sale every other month basically and even have a picture of the 15 dollar recent sale!
Cyber Sleugh is a step down from DUSK/DAWN in the DS. So no to that game. The passive system kills the game by making few digimon viable.
I really like dusk/dawn myself, I want to review them one day too
I bought it when it came out in PS4 the first time. When I finished it, I was very sad because I wanted more. To clarify, I wanted more because it was so damn good. It was my very first Digimon game I’ve ever played. Had and amazing time, and now I’ve bought the switch version so I can play hacker’s memory, with replaying cyber sleuth as a bonus.
hope you go on to enjoy hackers too,
also a new digimon story game should announced soon.
Minervamon is my favorite digimon. I don't care if she's a neutral element. She stomps in pvp for me, even for offline battles!
hey part of the fun of these games is having and using your favorites so im glad theyre good for you!
It’s not that bad of a game, I’m just playing custom robo right now but I’ll come back to it for sure
EDIT: I got the switch version, everything better on a handheld chilling in handheld mode or maybe on the crapper 🚽
ngl I gotta play custom robo one day but so many games to play rn
@@BobbyHopp I hear that, At least watch some tournaments on twitch or “custom robo videos “ YT if you get a chance
the fact that such an old game is still having tournaments is super sick
This is my favourite Digimon game
Mastemon is super op in CS she had an attack that halves health each hit, even on bosses. Like in other games usually you wouldnt be able to use those type of moves on bosses but like CS was like nope just half health bosses lol
ngl I never got mastemon but thats crazy
No idea, what are the Digimon Games features in this video aside Digimon World, 2 and 3. Can some name them or something.
I believe all the ones I showed where
digital monsters version s
digimon world 1, 3, 4
digimon world ds, dawn/dusk, lost evolution
digimon next order
digimon story cyber sleuth/hackers memory
might have missed one sorry kinda writing this comment quickly
Great video which made me go watch the Next Order one too which turned out to be very informative.
Since Hacker's Memory is in the works, I wonder if you plan to also cover the new Digimon Survive game too which is yet another deviation in style for the franchise. Personally, I thought it was a fine game with the gameplay portion having a lot of potential in becoming something really good and considering there's a Digimon Story game still in the works, it'll be cool to have a sequel.
Im sorry you had to watch the old Next Order video its so old and bad aaaaaaaaaa.
But thank you so much for watching and yeah Survive is actually in the works too, I recorded this audio last year and only got the will power to edit it recently which is why it lacks a survive notice.
@@BobbyHopp I assure you the Next Order video is not as bad as you’re judging it lol
Looking forward to both the Hacker’s Memory and Survive videos!
Take your time and stay healthy :)
sorry but as a creator I have to hate everything I've ever made lol. that being said hackers memory is actually already recorded in both footage and voice lines so I just need to get around to editing it so it should be out within the month hopefully!
Given I'm still so inexperienced with making videos and reviews I'm absolutely blown away to have reached over 10K views and over 300 likes??? I really feel like I don't deserve it and my videos need improving before I reach this much success but nonetheless thank you so much to everyone who watched, enjoyed, commented, liked it truly means the world to me.
I should also add the video editing process is underway for Hackers, itll probably be done before then but I'll try to have it out by next Friday since I know the YT algorithm likes consistent schedules so a Friday upload should hopefully help it.
The game is originally for psvita, not ps4. Also, it is perfectly recommendable to play at anything
I say in the video its originally a vita game, its actually how I played it the first time
I will add it's still playable and if its a persons only option its fine but if a person can play on PS4/SWITCH/STEAM all those versions are better overall in terms of performance.
Modern Pokemon < Cyber Sleuth Games
I have enjoyed the modern digimon games more than pokemon but I do dislike putting them against each other since the series can stand on their own.
I think the value of the dual pack cannot be understated. I played Cybersleuth three times so far, once on PS4 when I dropped it around the midway point because I wanted to use my favorites but they just didn't happen to have any piercing moves AND I played on Hard, a second time on PS4, this time on Normal and a more rational approach to my Digimon picks (I beat it on that run and pretty handily too) and then a third time on Hard on the dual pack, which applies HM's balance changes to both games. Some of the broken mons from the first game (UIForceVeedramon, among others) gets turned down a peg, while others get lifted up and enemies (on Hard) get balanced to a challenging but more natural feeling level. No more 20 turns in a row for a boss only for the next boss right after to get oneshot by your party.
Overall, I like the Cybersleuth series as a more inviting return of the franchise, but my favorites for the raising aspect still are the DS games, which, while a lot simpler in some aspects and a lot more obtuse in others, offer a better monster training experience. I play Cybersleuth for the story and the digimon just grow on the way, but I play Digimon World DS, Dusk and Dawn for the mons themselves as the story happens in a loose fashion on your own terms. Cybersleuth makes the whole evolution tree hopping a LOT more accessible by visualizing it ingame, but also cuts down its usefulness at the same time by making stats fixed instead of increased by evolving and devolving as well as making moves a LOT less divérse outside of support techniques. Most attacks are just elemental reskins and special moves are often way better, making the inheriting moves system kind of pointless for straight offense. The DS games would LOVE to have expansive evolution trees like this and they do, but only via DNA evolution, which without outside help never goes anywhere ingame on a regular playthrough.
Bro, you should try hard mode if you want a challenge, insanenely hard, the post game content especially is insanely hard
funilly enough Ive actually been thinking about doing a hard mode run where I also can only use scan digimon only and no digivolution.
@@BobbyHopp haha, good luck, i found hard mode very hard so i couldnt imagine doing it without digivolution but good luck if you can!
This is a game I've been wanting to try. Sounds super interesting and the video itself was great
thank you for the compliment I hope you enjoy the game if you do decide to try it!
Don't forget E: Support Skill that makes it so that you can't take damage, can't get affected by status changes and lasts until the next turn. Those counter skills hit like a truck and were vital for the super bosses
Yeah I think Jesmon has one of those skills if I remember correctly.
10:45 The Vita version of next order is actually way easier than the PS4 version, mainly because the stat requirements for digivolutions are lower and also because the enemies have lower stats
I remember when I was like 12 or 13 I found this game in Walmart and I was so shocked because I remember watching the digimon anime when I was a lot younger and I didn't realize it had games. I played and loved it. I didn't play hacker's memory until last year when I got them both on steam and it was just as good as the base game for me.
Or that it isnt entirely a kiddish game. In Hacker's Memory, there is a case that gets really dark...
Yeah, Hacker's Memory is definitely more dark in general compared to the 1st one and Hacker's Memory was overall a better experience imo, but both were amazing.
I didnt really go over much specific cases and story in the review and the next one since I want people to go in pretty fresh but Ryuji really does go "fuck them kids"
SPOILERS below!!! Although more vague details but still if you are gonna pick this game up it’s best to not read this!!!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt the latter half of the game lost focus in the story, especially in Arata’s case who was my favourite character. Also the ending did feel a little rushed in my opinion. Although with the ideas and topics it presents I can’t really imagine how to end the story any better since it explored the pros and cons of having a virtual world in society which can only really be left up to interpretation. I preferred the more Sleuth mystery style story and atmosphere at the beginning more than the typical cliche JRPG endgame story that became more prevalent towards the end. Apart from that I love this game, great combat and overall story, I actually got addicted to getting every Digimon in the field guide. It does make me wish there were more monster collector games available, especially since Yokai Watch 4 has not yet been localised (if it’s even going to be) sadly. Probably need another petition to show interest, unless it’s a different issue with bringing it over that I don’t know of.
Glad to actually see someone agrees with me about the story since I know alot of people really like the games plot. The second half is really held up by the games setting and the introduction of digimon into the real world which keeps up the interest despite the plot failing it certain ways.
Ngl Id sign a petition for Yokai Watch 4 in the west but ive also heard Level 5 is kinda falling apart at the seams in japan and I wonder if thats a contributing factor as well.
Good video bruh 😎
ive only ever played digimon once and that was the DS one with the black agumon(i dont remember the name of the game) and then i saw digimon survive come out and was kinda interested, and at the same time i saw the cybersleuth game on sale for 15 dollars on the switch so i bought and im glad i did currently enjoying the game so far aaahhh
I think this was a better choice given that sleuth/hackers are successors to the DS game, glad you're enjoying it!
I prefer this to next order because it reminds me of dw 3 with how the leveling works, plus it actually lists the digivolution requirements from the start so you don't have to play a guessing game.
I Love this game 🥺
Awesome video 🎉
I have to note that if you want an easy start on this game you can just raise an stingmon, it deals the piercing damage and you if you get bored with it you can make it into an imperialdramon
The only complaint i get from playing this game are no limitations on digimon form, but dont takes me wrong, it still fun and enjoyable, sometimes making Ultra level level digimon with non tweaking in stats and ABI will just giving you moderate power up digimon xD.
so after you get 200 ABI xD, you need tweaking the stats for sure and higher yield digimon in same level xD.
still in chapter 20 in the game, on sleuth one xD.
has postponed this game for longer time because i had to playing other games, well if i had time i will play it again on regular basis xD, or just stuck in some times playing in other game time xD
Hey no worries with taking your time, I am currently being bounced around digimon survive, monster hunter sunbreak and xenoblade 3 so I know your pain. I hope that when you do finish it you enjoy it though!
Digimon world OG is the best.
It's an absolute classic.
Loved every Digimon game and played all of them ... honestly the Digimon Survive was kind of disappointing.
I'm enjoying survive massively but it's a different kind of game so I understand if it wasnt your cup of tea.
@@BobbyHopp it's just too short lol ... I finished it in 7 hours after waiting for it for like 5 years
Was not ready for that opening theme!
Memories. Good times.
we love digimon world 3 in this house
@@BobbyHopp
This house and mine are best friends then.
No matter how much trauma everything past getting Digmon was, which was like 60% of the game (mostly travel time), the boot up and the initial log in are my fondest memories.
Didn't care much for either this or the sidequel, but that omnimon moment. Damn, that worked for me.
I love digimon, its amazing
very based and correct opinion
@@BobbyHopp i left it short and sweet lol was going to write why but i got lazy 🦥
Do hackers memory too! Good vid
thanks for the support! the hackers video is already out actually!
