      I personally never really played any Digimon game ( I guess except for Digimon rumble Arena 2, basically a smash bros version, which was really fun) but most of them looked rather boring to me. But I really enjoyed the TV series of them. I would guess that's from where most the Digimon enjoyers come from, not from the games.

    As a fan of both pokemon and digimon they are very different in my opinion. Id say give digimon survive a chance. Its an amazing game but mostly a visual novel. It doesn’t require any prior knowledge of digimon and is an incredible story. Though my advise is if you do play it avoid any spoilers. Its a one of a kind experience

      I think the biggest problem is the games are clearly designed for a predominantly japanese playerbase, so they tend to lean in to the grindiness and weird jrpg plots.

      Is the opposite of pokemon fandom in that sense.

    Cyber Sleuth is a good game, particularly on the switch where you can cheese XP by leaving your system on. The only complaint I had about it was some very spotty localization. The Golden path through the story is fine but any side road you travel, and you have to travel on a lot of them, get very "all your base are belong to us" very fast.

    • @TheTriad001
      @TheTriad001 2 місяці тому +7

      To be fair the reason for that was because Cyber Sleuth was never meant to come to the states. It was originally Japan only until a massive petition came out.
      Bandai Namco saw how big it was and said alright and released a, admittedly very rushed english version.
      But because it sold so well in the states that it's "sequel" had an actual localization budget behind it.

      I think a lot why we put up with this kind of shit a kids, is that (if you were lucky, like me) we just had soooo much time to kill, and it didn't matter that much if the game wasted a lot of it with grinding or pointless fetch quests. I played a lot of Runescape, WoW, early Pokemon games, etc growing up, but I wouldn't consider touching those as an adult with a full time job - my free time is more valuable than that now. I still occasionally play Pokemon Showdown, though, because I can just do the actually fun parts for me: build teams, then fight strangers with them!

    Jaiden, if you haven't been completely put off of Digimon, I would suggest watching a season of the show, any season will give you the base concept well enough, though there is story so you may be lost if you start later, although Digimon Tamers is my favorite series. Either way, watching some of the show should give you a base concept of digimon as a whole so you're not going into a game completely blind.

    I Love this game, I've played it at least 2 times legitimately. I totally understand this assessment thought, I feel like I have a pretty good sense of direction, never use repels in pokemon, and do side quests all the time in games that have them, but that isn't for everybody and this game can be seriously bogged down by those factors for someone who doesn't like that sort of thing.

    Digimon World is a chill game. It is an accurate representation of the Digimon concept. Everything you do in the game does advance your progress. A mon dying is a part of it. The cycle of raising a mon effectively is the main gameplay loop. Then there's exploration that results in getting things that make raising a mon much easier. I would recommend going in blind, but having a guide ready if you ever feel a little stuck or confused. In general the game gives you a lot of info if you talk to everyone in the city. The slow upgrading of the city is also really rewarding. Raising mons may feel like a bit of a grind, but you get into a comforting daily routine.

I remember really enjoying playing through both Dawn and Dusk-I played Dusk with an Action Replay when I was a kid, and then I played through Dawn without any hacking just a couple of years ago-so I was really surprised that someone who seems so much more experienced with gaming than me would have such a bad reaction to it...

    Recently played again dawn and took me 30 hrs to finish main story, to be honest I spent some time looking for some of my fav digimon Dorumon and Gaomon. So the grind was basically a the start just to get 100% data of armadillomon and goburimon. But have to say, totally worth it. Starting the adventure with your favorite partners make the experience way more satisfying. Also the game is actually very easy to break XD. Just keep creating digimon and DNA evolve your mains to those just created to improve their stats. You can easily get a rookie way stronger than a champion or even ultimate/perfect.
    I know that the game NEVER explains anything but as long as you can discover the mechanics and some secret tips, the game is quite easy.

    I really like Cybersleuth, Hacker's Memory because it scratches the specific itch I have, though it probably isn't the best representation of the series "vibe". Finding a game for that in this franchise is really difficult for some reason. That said the old Data Squad game for the ps2 did a good job of making your digimon feel like characters while giving them lots of room for digivolutions so...maybe Data Squad? Maybe? I don't know, I enjoyed it anyway.

      Well the one she is playing is a part of the Digimon story series a long chain of loosely connected games. Typically connected by character cameos or the plots of Yggdrasil/king drasil and are all rpg style games. The World games are traditionally an open world breeder game closer to a console tamagotchi. Then you have rumble games which are the fighting game of the franchise. Then you got survive the first visual novel. Trouble is these games are not like Pokémon and usually can’t be beaten without grinding and planned and raising for certain evolution paths. You will have maxed out Digimon by the end.

      I would honestly say to a pokemon fan that Dusk and Dawn are the most pokemon like of the games.
      Definitely pick up and put down type games, similar to how pokemon could end up being a grind fest before exp share was a thing.
      However, I'd reccomend the Switch bundle of Cyber Sleuth and Hackers Memory. I'd bought the latter on ps4 because it looked like a 3d Dusk (and was on sale). But the pick up and put down part makes it more palatable than, say, a full blown video game (if saying that even makes sense, they're not a six hour session, more a, couple of hours before work the next day, kinda pace.)
      Cyber sleuth takes the DS game and makes a lot of it better. Sure it can get repetitive, but at least it's far less frustrating. Hackers Memory gives new side quest mechanics too.
      I watched most of the first run on TV, quite a lot of the second, and some of tamers. Had the clip on digivice with renamon on it in high-school, it went off a few times at almost the worse times haha.
      But like, I honestly prefer the games after playing them. I think the translation of the anime was aimed at younger kids and the age demographic never went up.

    It was really funny to hear a Pokemon player point out the weird design choices of Digimon games. 🤭
    It is a shame though that you didn’t pick Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth and its spin-off, because aside from long story moments, the games are really good and have bone of the problems in World Dawn.
    Digimon Rumble Arena 2 on the PS2 is also a fun platform brawler, though albeit not a standard Digimon game and more of a gimmick genre, but what a blast to play. I still play it today.
    One of the things I liked about Digimon through was the variety in their games. They always had something different or unique about them.
    Whereas, Pokemon always had a few spin-off games from different genres, I never gave them much time because the main series was so long to play with lots and lots of hours. Even Pokemon Go just never did it for me.
    Thats the problem with having one good formula, any deviation seems like a waste of time - except Legends: Arceus of course which is 🤩.
    I should say that I am a Poke & Digimon fan.
    Digimon Cyber Sleuth for me began to feel like a mainline formula, and I’ve noticed that because of it, I’m struggling to play any digimon game (except Rumble Arena 2) other than the cyber sleuths.

She found it on the last day, after calling around several stores, and driving all over Florida to find it. That was the best birthday gift ever and I played it for MONTHS SOLID. I loved it. I loved the art style, I loved the story, even the little fetch quests. I got so good at memorizing the maps out of muscle memory.

    I feel the reason it was so difficult to find a game people unanimously liked is because Digimon has a record of changing up the formula with almost every new game. So you'll get people that love the tamagotchi like experience of Digimon World or those that like the traditional JRPG style of Cyber Sleuth. While some variety is nice in a franchise on occasion, the level Digimon has taken it to fans don't know what to expect so there are many folks with strong opinions on what makes a good Digimon game.

      That's why it's hard to get in on the fandom, it's hard to find a game as is but the learning curve is even greater. For example she didn't mention digiconvertion and digievolution. Which has many a branching paths. etc

      Street Fighter series kinda has a similar problem but to a lesser extent. 2 is a game balanced around extremely powerful tools that check each other (mostly), 3 is all about parry, 4 is dominated by setplay and option selects, 5 is mostly a frame trap game. They’re all 2D fighting games but all feel radically different

    Part of the problem, I think, is that a lot of Pokemon fans go into a Digimon game assuming it'll play more or less the same because of the franchise's stigma of being a "Pokémon clone." But Digimon games have never stuck to one single genre, and there's only really one game in the entire franchise that even came close to being a Pokémon copy (it's Digimon World 3, for those wondering).

      Yeah but I still love the franchise and I grew up on it and people who think that digimon is a pokemon copy are uneducated and just need to stop they are judging something they don't understand and refuse to learn also digimon fans should not hate on pokemon fans because they are uneducated because at one point they were also uneducated and should learn to let somethings go and should still like their franchise but should not look down upon others because they are uneducated but should see an opportunity to teach another about their culture and this goes for other things other than just fandoms so do not judge something because you does not know anything about it learn and accept that you just won't like somethings and do not judge others because they do like something else than you

      Also, Digimon started as a v-pet line anyway. Very different from megami tensei
