He's so ridiculous it turns back around to being cool, not to mention it's a weird design even for Digimon standards.

You didn't say anything that could be refuted? Stop dodging the question.

Gundramon is a stupid ridiculous design, but that's what makes it so great, bad Pokemon designs are just kinda bad, there's nothing to them.

Digimon has actual game mechanics, unlike Pokemon

havent been since original ruby, the only monster taming games worth a damn if you arent 7 years old is DQ monsters

Consider context. People are pissed off about Pokemon and are looking for alternatives, digimon was the first thing that popped into people's heads, and all of a sudden digimon announces a remake of what some consider the best digimon game on switch. (It's not, that would be the World 1 gameplay line)

A quick google search would provide you the answer to that.
But to save you the effort, no, they are not.

>So do Battle Tree and multiplayer modes in pokemon.
lol

serious question, why are you shilling a franchise that has been shit since x&y ? especially with how gamefreak likes to shit on its fans on a daily basis
no memes or shitpost answer please

Battle tree and multiplayer are optional challenges at the end.
Pokemon main stories are always piss easy, with no way to ramp up the challenge, besides self imposed challenges.

its called ascension, classic mechanic in videogames since inception

I actually like how the silence status effect in digimon turns you into a 2D sprite

Which of the PSP games should I emulate? No I don't own a Vita or PS3/PS4

>people ITT are legitimately arguing that Pokemon's PvE is at all deep or challenging

Holy fuck.

You literally can't refute a word I said. Sit down, shut up. You're owned, beeyotch

nah, here's how it works
you fight digimons, get battle data from the fights and eventually you can make your own digimons after gathering enough data
these digimons will have a pretty low level cap so you gotta devolve them at first which will increase their level caps, then you level them and can eventually make them digivolve if you fullfilled certain conditions (like having X stat at a certain level, enough friendship with the digimon, etc) and digivolving also increases your level cap
so you basically gotta grind and constantly devolve and evolve your mons to make them stronger, oh and every digimon has multiple evolution paths of course

i should have expected you to just answer with memes, boring
oh well

>NOOOOOOOO DEEJEEMON NO HAZ THEM SO THEY IZ GIMMIX
no, they're gimmicks because they're gimmicks. dynamax is a shitty lazy replacement for megas and z-moves. raids are a transparent attempt to pander to the pokemon go zoomers. neither of them add any real substance to the game.

are there options to turn off the attack effects? That's the only way I could remotely stomach Pokemon's endless chore of endless boring battles.

"Haha I was only pretending to be retarded"

then get one, fuck off.

yes actually, i did that for when i wanted to autism grind

I think when we get the ports i'll play Cyber Sleuth on normal, to get a grasp on the mechanics, and then i'll try to play through Hacker's Memory on hard,
i also heard HM has a more balanced hard mode with less bullshit involved.

cyber sleuth is more like smt than pokemon of course its far better

>Multiple evolution paths
Try all of them if you can navigate yourself around the evolution tree

Shut up, faggot. I'm the only one being even remotely intellectual.

If they'd release something half decent on 3ds on steam I'd gladly play it. Unfortunately I can't torrent roms and shit because my ISP on campus blocks those and vpns.

Cyber Sleuth and it's sequel are coming as a bundle to PC and Switch in October.
I assume PC means Steam, atleast i hope EGS doesn't care enough about Digimon to try and buy it.

You are fucking lying, but teens are still kids.

user I know I’m SUPPOSED to explore the island to find more denizens to raise my tamer level so I can keep stats on death but right now I have to re raise my digimon from scratch every X days and grind bits for healing items.

Well let’s see you do not offer an argument or counterargument and prosed to insult as a first measure when someone responds your question whit nothing but what you want to hear, to me seems like the one who need to grow up its you.

what? why?

>user I know I’m SUPPOSED to explore
Then do it and stop bitching. I only raised my digimon for around 3 in-game days. That's like literally 10 fucking minutes. If you got a champion pokemon, then just go out and explore you fucking inbred.

Also, your problem was you were raising the same digimon over and over again. It's a mathematician game. If you keep raising your HP to 1000 and your attack to 140, in every single digimon you raise. Of course you will get the same fucking evolution. Because 1000HP+140ATK = X Evolution, while minus 1000HP+140DEF = Y evolution.

You're in a loop wasting your time because you're a dumbass, nothing else. You should finish that game in 5-8 hours tops.

>grinding for healing items
>not just buying them in the local shop
>he doesn't sell meat
Why do videogames attract the dumbest people?

Nice projection, hit a never?
I was raised with Star Wars, my parents are avid star wars fans.
I grew up out of Star Wars and into Warhammer 40k, its the better universe.
Just like I grew out of Mario games.

user, Cyber Sleuth was REALLY rough. I really wanted to like it, but I had to more or less force myself to finish over a year period of playing it on and off.

What sucks is it had potential to be decent with a proper sequel and better budget, but Hacker's Memory was literally just the first game copy and pasted with a new story and no major improvements.

See boy now that is a response it wasn’t so hard was it? For your information I did use the Warhammer example because I did that as well, and since pokemon has shit the bed so hard in this last game while digimon has been doing better and better at a steady pace I may switch sides there as well, but my point was to show you how no matter how bad things get most people will hope for the better. Hope is a prelude for disaster most of the time tho…

Grow up.

Pokémon was never good. Dropped that franchise in gen 3.

Why'd it take you 3 gens user?

Cuz they were adding content in gen 2, and then completely scrapped it in gen 3. Dropped it and never went back.

I also dropped Digimon when they went the DS route with shitty pokemon-like games. Fuck pokemon.

You don't talk shit about Muricamon

Pokemon had a cleaner and far more organized evolution structure than digimon and had a hand at making videogames what they are today, digimon main gimmick had to be scraped entirely, also better design’s when it came to the humans who live in said world (which is the only saving grace remaining). Also not try so hard to grow out of thing just because that is the line of thought that gave us all of these Disney shitty remake’s for “grown-ups”

Gundramon is based, fuck you nigger.

cyber sleuth wildly outsold bamco's expectations in the west when it was a sony exclusive. meanwhile, nothing sells well on nintendo platforms except for bing bing wahoo, zelda and pokemon.

Because Digimon are digital monsters while pocket monsters. If I can have a real monster in my pocket instead of a data one then that's cooler.

Oh my god this thing may have enougth DAKKA!

I have a cell phone in my pocket and the entire world is connected by the internet so Digimon are more realistic

Also digimon have giant boobs

Realism is the opiate of the masses.

whats the name of that dark Lilimon? plesae tell me is not actually dark Lilimon

is Porygon a Digimon? it's a Digital Monster

Digifag here, what is wrong with this one? He's one of the only SM Pokemon I thought looked great.

I got into Pokémon the same way I got into Digimon. Anime on TV, couldn't give less of a rat ass about the art design of each franchise. It was all about recreating the anime in videogame form.

Digimon did it perfectly on their first console game, so did Pokémon in their first handheld game.
Digimon went weird on their second game, still like it. Pokémon improved the formula of their first game, and it was all good and dandy.
Digimon's third game went more into a final fantasy game with digimon, didn't like it, never even finished that game, but it had the best minigame ever made, a card game inside the game, shit was absolute fun, loved digimon to death. On the other hand, Pokémon's third game went backwards and was all around a shit game, finished it and never went back to pokemon.

Dropped both franchises at that point. The "cleaner designs" "organized evolution" and whatever else you're memeing me about here, don't mean jack shit to me. It's all about whether I can immerse myself as Ash Ketchump or Tai Kamiya into a world of wonders.
Nowadays, I just try games if they look well animated and have good soundtrack, don't really ask for more.

It's a Digital Pocket Monster. A Dipomon.

Literally just a cartoon horse with a lame as fuck name

Tldr

Ok, but what's wrong with being a cartoon horse? Not everything needs to be some zany twist design. It's simple but pleasing to look at, I also like its color palette.

Good, I was blogposting in an attempt to end my conversation with you, it worked. Grow up.

Only if you think every monster in every game needs to look like a Pokemon
Pokemon are specifically designed to look more naturalistic and animal-like compared to normal JRPG monsters which are inspired by D&D or mythological beings. Digimon doesn't do that because that's not what Digimon is about.
You may as well say SMT has shit monster designs compared to Pokemon. They're going for completely different things.

Looks like I missed Dynamaxfag getting BTFOd

The World series is kind of like Tomogatchi if you're old enough to have had one of those, you attend to your Digimon's needs and train it, and its stats determine what it evolves into, but it eventually dies and you start again with increased stats.
It's very different from Pokemon or other RPGs, you have limited control over your Digimon, it's much more focused on the raising aspect.

The Cyber Sleuth series plays like a traditional turn based JRPG. It has the same elements as World in that your stats determine what your Digimon evolve into, but there's also a "catching" mechanic like Pokemon and you have a party/collection instead of just one monster. It's also more story focused

Based on this information you should either get Digimon World Re:Digitize which is a remake of the first World game, or Cyber Sleuth which is the first in the Digimon Story series and is about to get a PC port.

>Don't they realize that Digimon exists?
Does it, though? Also why can't people play both? Were you born retarded?

But why would you still play Pokemon games aside from Showdown?

Include Meicrackmon and the humanoid furry ones like Renamon

Best digimon games? Gonna be getting the cybersleuth collection on the switch but I dont know what else to play

1, nothing else.

Yeah i think Gatomon would be a little much, cause then i'd need Pyiomon and whoever else aswell, but i guess i should atleast include Renamon.

if you like monster raising with limited lifespans before they are getting reborn, I would recommend Digimon World: next order
there is also the Digimon Adventure PSP RPG game, I think it's also fantranslated

Digimon World
And the PS1 card games

I never understood the mass appeal of Pokemon, the anime was always garbage and the games are incredibly boring.
But it seems the consistency of Pokemon games and the appeal of collecting shit is quite appealing.

Why wouldn't you? If you enjoyed them before you're not going to stop enjoying them because of whatever mess of an argument you're trying to cobble together in your head.

>I don't understand the appeal
It's literally in the god damn name
>Pokémon: GOTTA CATCH THEM ALL

Nintendo has always made collect games
Mario, Zelda, and Pokémon all focus on collect shit.

I dunno. Soulless animations, PS2 graphics in CURRENT YEAR, and a cut roster for $60 would make me stop enjoying them.

I never felt like there was a strong theme around digimon. In pokemon you have some baseline: These pokemon are out there in the wild and you catch them, grow with them, and battle them. There can be a lot of the same pokemon but that's okay since they're animals and it's expected that they'd look roughly the same. In digimon it's just that there's... a digital world, I guess, where these programs (?) just kind of hang out and do their job (?). You can evolve them into these different forms but they all are very unique in and of themselves, but the digimon isn't actually unique. It's just one instance of a digimon. So there could be fifty lilithmon's in a room.

Not to mention that there's a million different ways up or down to digivolve and the choices a digimon has when evolving don't seem to have any real bearing on what they are originally. I think to the shows then there's this really nice Agumon > Greymon > MetalGreymon etc. line, with some offshoots that made sense. But then you go into the games and Agumon can digivolve into Meramon, that fire guy, who you can also get from Candlemon, Impmon, and Solarmon. So who was the Agumon you knew? What about when they turn into Meramon. How is that Meramon different from a completely different Meramon that came from an Impmon? The digivolution paths up and down seems really arbitrary and it kills the concept in my head.

It's that fucking donald trump?

Because people can play and enjoy more than one franchise?

Even so, Digimon's quality is too inconsistent. Literally half the games are absolute trash.

It comes kinda out of nowhere, you have a boxer crab, and then it suddenly turns into a yeti.
Plus you're likely to catch it early into the game and won't get the mediocre evolution until right before the elite 4.

half of it's the goofy-ass face, the other half is the disappointment of a boxing coconut crab turning into a retard with lanky, misshapen arms.

It's the only nintendo franchise that never really tried to innovate on every new iteration. Even Mario Party had tons of new crap in every game.

wow that thread hit a nerve, pokefags in full cope mode

Up until recently it was a PlayStation Exclusive.

And before you say anything about Vita piracy, it wasn't until last year all 3.61+ firmwares were hackable.

Cool, thank you. I will look into it.

Ah, I see you're more of a fan of picture books. Let me boil the thoughts down for the lizard hindbrain you operate on: Digimon designs are incredibly individualized despite there being multiple copies of, and multiple ways to get to, any one digimon. This means that their actual personality is arbitrary. Even worse is that this doesn't apply to ALL digimon. It's just a tossup whether you get an individualized Digimon or a more animal-like generic template digimon.

This. The design feels like a high school edgelord made it

Because it was locked behind Sony's grubby hands. Now it's coming to Switch and PC I am going to play the HELL out of the modern Digimon games. I am so excited.

>Digimon designs are incredibly individualized

What is this meme I swear digimon uses the "metal animal" or "knight" motif for a million digimon. Or titty monstermon. Most are super forgettable.

>the design
what are you even talking about?

I disagree. I think Digimon has the much stronger premise, with every element of it linking back to the fact that they are digital.

Digimon are monsters made of data inside a computer. They serve functions on the internet and are composed of data from different programs: some are from virus scanning programs, some are from military software, some are from RPGs and other games games, etc. Everything about them links back to the fact that they exist as digital creatures, while also maintaining a primitive animalistic theme.

Their evolutions are triggered when they download enough data and get uploaded to the Digivolution Matrix to be reconfigured. Digimon grow more mechanical or magical as they get stronger as they are reconfigured into new, more combat-oriented forms. Your Agumon turns into a Meramon because it has more fire data to work with when it's being recompiled; it's finding what "template" it fits best into. While it had its origins in the franchise's roots as a V-pet, it fits into the world the series is setting up.

That's by choice.
Digimon has always been about bonding through growth with your Digimon partner. That Digimon can become ANYTHING! A waifu, a gundam, a giant robot dinosaur, etc. It's up to you and they way you grow with your partner that shapes who you both become. And that individuality is expressed through the Digimon designs.
In Pokemon it's super likely for you and a friend to both level a Charmander to level 36 and get Charizard. And that's fine, because Pokemon is about teams and your unique collection of monsters.
In Digimon at least in the Vpet and early PS1 days before guides came out it was highly unlikely for you and a friend to raise a Digimon the same exact way, so you were likely to end up with two entirely different Digimon. How different they end up from each other is a big draw and a big part of Digimon as a concept.

What's even better is the cowboy reminds me a lot of DMC5 Dante, with the hat. So it's Dante, Bayonetta and their pet gun. I love those three, they're amazing.

As opposed to pokemon where it's all of them

>people replying seriously to this dumbass that doesn't even understand the premise of Digimon the moment it was conceived
It's clear as fuck he is underage and low IQ, like most pokemon fans. Don't bother arguing with him.

That's more interesting. What determines the digivolution path? Like with Agumon to Meramon, what is 'fire' in this context. Like a firewall? Is an Agumon that mostly destroys Virus Digimon more likely to become Meramon, or is it 100% their choice?

As shit as Pokemon is right now, Digimon is even worse. CS and Next Order were just as mediocre, if not worse, than XY/ORAS/SM. Both franchises have been on the same downward trajectory since about 2007 where they both peaked.

Basically what I'm saying is, give me DQM on the Switch.

Not sure why you're trying to argue with me

name of that game please

>You can evolve them into these different forms but they all are very unique in and of themselves, but the digimon isn't actually unique. It's just one instance of a digimon. So there could be fifty lilithmon's in a room.

That's actually interesting though. Your Digimon can be an instance of one of the Royal Knights or Demon Lords, but also you know you raised them from an egg. Does my Lilithmon know the things the real Lilithmon would know?

I actually like this conceptually but in practice most digimon games I’ve played have not actually had very many end evolutions for the premise to hold up and too many times an ultimate digimon has a cool look it can’t carry into a mega form in any way.

The main meat of Digimon is the anime anyway.
Games wise, I'd only recommend World 1 and the offsprings like it.

It depends on the monsters personality, how its treated and environment.

Attached: 1404987405415.webm (704x480, 2.94M)

In practice most digimon games are made by incompetent hacks.
We are in good hands now.

The 90s were great for digimon fans.
The 00s were terrible.
The 10s were good again.

That shitty coo coo never got a name nor did he ever appear in the games, fuck whoever hated that digimon so much they erased his existence, he looked cool. Wonder what his MEGA would look like.

In the games it'a based on stats; in some of them you have experience based on what types of digimon you defeat, like Pokemon EVs.

In universe it's supposed to be due to the circumstances they undergo in the Matrix. Mamemon for instance has evolved through millions of years in a nuclear wasteland; for you, it's still your bro that you just saw a minute ago, but its data was run through millions of years of simulations in order to extrapolate what it should become. The lore for Metal Greymon says he is a Greymon who was not capable of surviving in battle without cybernetic life support systems. Even though that didn't happen to YOUR Greymon, it's what happened within the Matrix simulation.

Its Parrotmon

Who is the nigger of digimon?

Your personal issues are not infamous or widely known. You're a dumb fuck, too stupid to understand a game or read the manual.

I finished that game before I could even read proper English, which isn't my native language. You have no fucking excuse, you're just fucking stupid and you're trying to deflect the discussion from it because you're scared, weak, and pathetic.

Game was piss easy.

Bullshit, there were daily HM threads until it got released.

Chimaerimon. I don’t know why but I love the abomination theme.

When I was a kid I thought I was so clever for thinking that line up, only for it to be made canon and like every other kid online coming up with the same one. I guess everybody thought of it because it's one of the few digimon that has as clear of an evolution line as the Digimon from the show.

Some Digimon are cool having a related family and a natural progression (Greymon, Seadramon, Tyrannomon, Kuwagamon, Kabuterimon, etc.) but some designs are just so unique they'd never happen if the artists had to worry about making similar forms to go alongside it.

It's all about the party synergies and team building. There are hundreds of monsters with unique skills and abilities, and the game's built around exploiting them with various combinations. It skimps on graphics because it's made by one guy and he puts all his time into the mechanics.

Marketing.

Nintendo was a mega powerhouse in the early 90s, a literal end-game boss company that bullied everyone around them. They built the Gameboy and made a handheld revolution.

Meanwhile, Tamagotchi, where Digimon came from, were legit a couple of dudes working on these garbage devices.

I'm glad Digimon blew up the way it did, because it could have easily died when Pokemon came out and killed their sole way to get income. Just be happy Digimon exists because its a miracle of its own.

As far as the bio goes, Skulgreymon's a monster. It has no flesh, so it can't feel pain. No matter how much you damage it, it'll keep fighting until it dies. Its brain can't comprehend anything except killing everything it sees. You can't just beat it into submission, you have to destroy it completely. In that regard, it has an advantage over Metalgreymon, which can at least feel pain. It's also bigger than Metalgreymon.

Still, it's a mindless, raging berserker, while Metalgreymon is intelligent.

Digimon and Pokemon are nearly opposites in terms of execution.
Pokemon committed to a formula so hard it kind of pigeonholed itself. Sure spinoffs have their fans but core Pokemon games will always be RPGs about competing in a Pokemon League while fighting gangs on the side.
Digimon played fast and loose with its IP, trying a bit of everything. It can be a training sim, a JRPG, a fighting game, an couch co-op hack-n-slash, etc. Even story-wise it can do just about anything so long as Digimon and friends are involved somehow.

>I really wish Digimon could have gotten just as popular as Pokemon.
im glad it isn't, have you seen the latest thing happening to pokemon? the game has becoming more mediocre and lazy, people policing over skin tones and acting puritans for sexualizing the underage trainers. being the underdog has pushed them to put effort into making digimon games fun and look so good. also the community is more stronger because there is actual love for the game and lore. is good digimon isn't in the spotlight because everything they release is what continues to bring hope on their fans and appreciate every work done into it

It's sort of intimidating to start Digimon with a baseline of 0. Way back in the day, I chose and grew up on Pokemon and ignored Digimon for the most part. I'm very interested in the Cybersleuth games though but I've stopped myself from getting them because I don't think I'd know where to start from.

Are they beginner friendly? I actually like the monster designs and the artist for the games is also great coming from the Devil Survivor games which I also loved.

The farm is still there, though the post game is totally different.
The girl from Dusk does make a cameo, but no anime characters.

desu it kinda feels like the devs of these Digimon Story games care more about the digimon brand than the actual owners of the digimon brand. they are the only ones doing anything really interesting with the digimon lore / universe and the gameplay's not weighed down by a bunch of gimmicks or meters

But you did increase their Ability, which increases the amount their stats CAN be raised.
Stick them in the farm now and set them on a stat course.

I like how the buck is passed to the Pokemon to thanklessly beat the shit out of each other to solve human problems. That totally solves the moral conundrum.

Why does every goddamn bit of official Digimon art 1990s res?

Alright thanks user.

To explain it simply, the more you digivolve/digivolve your Digimon, the higher their ABI gets. The higher their ABI is, the higher level your Digimon can get to, and more stats they can gain when training in the farm. Some Digimon require a specific ABI to be digivolved into.

honestly in a game like this hard mode is basically masochism, it just demands more grinding and sticking to broken moves above all else

Because people are into different things you silly goose
i like a lot of different games my favourite being summon nightsword craft games on gba

Attached: 1478027130669.png (737x404, 24K)

You can ABI by evolving.reverting, which determines how much stat training you can do at the farm.
For example, at 16 ABI you can put 16 points into your stats while training at the farm.
Training is a matter of setting Digimon at the farm and waiting a couple minutes, though there are certain modifiers that I won't go in-depth on that determine training time and what stats get raised.

sounds like they actually fleshed out and explained the mechanics that were present in DW3

the game is absolutely fucking terrible at explaining any of this btw so just read a guide. the bad translation combined with the lack of proper explanation is just a pain

I admit that I like some fanservice Digimon, and some humanoid ones that aren't fanservice, like Devimon, but I do think there are too many humanoid ones now. I liked the designs the most in the early, early days when Digimon were mostly monstrous, and their final forms were even tougher looking monsters instead of humans in armor and cosplay.

Pic related shows a Digimon requiring a certain amount of ABI to be evolved into for examples.

Yeah, game doesn't explain ABI very well, but something similar was present in the Digimon Story games on DS so I understood it immediately. So either a guide or friend would be helpful to explain these things.

it looks like a straight up mecha though? is it devimon redesign or a later evolution?

call me a faggot but i like that redesign

Where the hell is that from?

This looks like Devimon X to me. So it's Devimon infected with the X-antibody. Separate Digimon, basically.

lol digimon always sucked anf pokemon turned to shit after gen 4

couldn't find one without some fag talking over it?

Ok yeah it's not Devimon X, I thought it was something with the new Digital Monster X v-pet. But we got LadyDevimon X, not regular Devimon.

Dunno, I switched to SMT ages ago.

still mad they never released dukemon

but digimon is fun i loved the DS games and gen 5 pokemon was great

Start with the Cyber Sleuth games.

Ty big fan of the ratchet and clank soundtrack as much as i liked the remake it doesn't hold up to the original ps2 games

is Black Wargreymon available by default in Hacker Memory? One of my biggest irritations was not having my favorite digimon in the whole series because of a fucking preorder bonus

Question for all the rattlers inside.
I have never played ANY Digimon game, i missed out on it for pokemon instead and dropped it after BW2, the peak. Are Cyber Sleuth and the other one thats coming on switch any good? i am willing to try

that's not banchostingmon ya dingdong

Attached: 1481759368888.jpg (799x599, 128K)

they already did that with agumon on savers

He's in Hacker's Memory, yes. Not in the original Cyber Sleuth without DLC.

However, he should be in both games once the PC and Switch ports drop. And every mon from Hacker's Memory should be in Cyber Sleuth. So I'd wait for those.

Yeah they're fun. At least the first one is, I haven't played Hacker's Memory yet. I won't lie, they don't feel like they had a huge budget, but it's fun to experiment with Digimon and build your favorite teams.

that's a gross xros, but the new Greymon is really dope

They're relatively standard JRPGs.
I'd rather recommend Digimon World 1, Re:Digitize or Next Order if you want something more unique.

Main meat of Digimon is in the anime.

Attached: 1406257321283.webm (704x396, 2.43M)

Yes, play the Cyber Sleuth games once they drop on Switch/PC. It's a great start-off point for those who have never played a Digimon game. It's at least familiar ground if you've ever played an SMT game or Final Fantasy X.

We have no idea about Digimon Survive, though. That's coming in 2020, we have yet to see much of it, but it looks a'ight so far.

I've wondered that myself. I would assume the guidebooks would have better scans by now but I guess not.

I agree with this. I like humans alright but I feel like nowadays there are too many humanoids, and far too much of an overreliance on Megas. I hate how everything is always a mad dash to Mega level, with no time as Champions or Ultimates.

The Angemon/Devimon redesigns are okay as their own thing but I don't understand what the point of them was. Wasn't there an Angewomon one too? Or am I thinking of Mastemon?

not him but what differences will there really be on the switch/pc other than it coming in one package with DLC

Looks like a shiny metal greymon.

no, this is metal greymon

Attached: MetalGreymon_(2010_anime)_b.jpg (320x320, 39K)

Are you going to be able to share your digimon between Cyber Sleuth to Hacker's Memory?

Cyber Sleuth should have the balance changes from Hacker's Memory. This includes a nerf to several moves, increased ABI (aka stats your Digimon can gain through training), and every Digimon from Hacker's Memory should be available in the first game. There might be more, although I'm not sure. But it's a more complete package than anything we've gotten in the west before.

Only DIgimon game I have played is Digimon World 1, one of my favourites and a classic in my eyes. However I have never played any other Digimon game.

What are the other top tier Digimon games? Preferably something I can emulate.

that's how the original releases were like if i recall so yeah

>and every Digimon from Hacker's Memory should be available in the first game
any info on this or are you assuming that is should

Digimon World 2

Re:digitize and Cyber Sleuth.

I like World 3 and Championship for the DS but some don't.

Assuming. It's how the Japanese version of the game was, though. The Japanese version came bundled with both Cyber Sleuth and Hacker's Memory, and all Digimon were available. When brought over to the west, we got Hacker's Memory without Cyber Sleuth bundled in, so there was no way to get the mons from Hacker's Memory to Cyber Sleuth.

righton hopefully you're right i already own them on the vita and ps4 but might aswell wait to give the games another shot on the switch

Forget pre-order bonuses and QoL changes. We should be asking the REALLY important question:
Will NAcucks censor Sistermon this time?

this is a very pressing matter but another pressing matter is will it be physical on switch and if so will it all be on 1 cartridge

>Digimon Championship
This is the most underrated one I think. There's no real story to it which will turn people away but it does the virtual pet stuff better than digimon world 1 or next order

This.

Its sad but also makes me happy. Digimon is pure love nowadays.

Why can't Digimon fans and Pokemon Fans be friends? They're both good games and if only they were to combine forces with DIgimon's Gameplay and general philosophy, with Pokemon's Story and designs it'd be the perfect casual RPG.

Man a srpg pokemon game was the best fucking idea yet Conquest felt poorly done. I wish they'd go back and fix Conquest's issues with a remake sequel or somethings or make a new srpg pokemon series. Pokemon can be so much better if they branch out to different genres and actually improve on them.

finally, a fellow Conquest Bro, don't worry if Pokemon Ranger can have 3 games and TMS was apparently a success, then our time will come.

>with Pokemon's Story
This is why we can't be friends. Pokefags are stupid and have retarded opinions.

Describe your main game parties.

i honestly think the only pokemon game spinoffs we will see now are let's go, rumble and maybe another dungeon i unironically loved playing let's go

game isn't even out yet how would I know what my main party would be?

>Pokemon's story
full retard

Comparing Pokemon's story with Digimon's is the equivalent of turtle races. At least Pokemon's story has a sense of progression and post-game. With Digimon Story games it's "Do these sidequests until the story mission is available, then fight the big monster, then New Game + the same game". At least the DS games had a world to explore and a decent post-game

Next Order's not worth mentioning, huh?

I can't believe that was done in the first place, I haven't seen anyone censor religious things because of fear of Christians in nearly two decades. At least it can be fixed on PC even if they do.

>At least Pokemon's story has
Stopped reading there, I will finish that sentence for you:
>At least Pokémon's story has
Nothing, it has nothing at all.

Cyber Sleuth has a billion post-game bosses, though.

Are the games even considered in the Digimon franchise? Like, do they even make a considerable amount of sales when compared to Angewomon figures and rereleasing Digivices and more Original Series pandering?

Tamers is actually fantastic and holds up extremely well as an adult.
The writer actually knew what he was doing and the amount of effort put into the writing stands out.
As long as you watch the sub, you'll end up liking it. Just gotta get through the first 3 awkward episodes, where Takato cries a lot.

yes you can, but you better know the digivolution tree and proper farming because you better fucking commit

Good lord, those are bad. Why on Earth would they change Slash to Slush?

I think Tamers is still up your alley. It was written by Chiaki Konaka, who did Serial Experiments Lain, so the latter half of Tamers gets really fucked up and weird. It's honestly great.

Right? She even gets her own official art.

Not sure what exactly to explain, but, in the original Hacker's Memory, Sistermon Noir and Blanc were in the game. When releasing the game in the west, Sistermon Noir was censored as Sistermon Ciel, which was like a blue recolor, but instead of cat ears, it was mouse ears. Ended up being a completely brand new Digimon, which I think was a really great idea down the line.

Attached: Sistermon_ciel_reference_art.png (1604x767, 922K)

I'm thinking of trying it out when it comes to PC or Switch. I do have a Vita but might as well get the complete editions when they come out.

fuck off narutaki
dont you have some magenta son of a bitch to bug?

who cares

In cyber sleuth 1 answering it right gave that 'mon a single point of cam but in Hacker's Memory I think they're bugged and no matter what you answer you never get a reply.

I guess I just don't really understand the reasoning behind the censorship, there's lewder mons out there

tamers is overrated, but still worth a watch. my only disappointment was how they started to less and less use the TCG to fight, the only time it was used often was if it turned into a blue card. the tcg gave them a huge advantage and main feature of the digivice but nope, it was discarded

It only affected the American version, Noir was in the European version, so it was someone involved with the NA branch that didn't think it was appropriate, or was afraid of a group of people no one's cared about in a long time.

Do Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon have this problem? Like yeah, Dark Magician and Blue Eyes get some cards, and Pokemon Gen 1 wanking is just Charizard, Pikachu, and Mewtwo. But is Digimon the worst with "Taichi and Agumon are the real heroes of the franchise". I want to say Pokemon is the worst with OG wank but I'm starting to doubt it with Digimon "The Last Evolution"

Just how bad was Tri?

Okay, imagine 3 episode bursts dedicated to each character per burst. Now imagine if 2 of those 3 episodes are almost static images with voiceovers from characters. Also, it's all about 3 characters you never cared or heard about. How bad is it?

That sounds like a recipe for disaster

They do.
Pokemon likes to shill Pikachu, Eevee, and KANTOOOO in everything.
Yugioh can't stop dickriding the first series so there's constant Yugi/Kaiba products, new Blue-Eyes cards, and they even started a set based around giving literal who characters new cards.

BUT DEY PLAY BUTTERFLY WHEN THEY FIGHT SO IT OKEY

This but unironically
I'm bean ironic, it was bad even with them overusing to death butterfly

>new chosen children
>takeru and hikari are experienced in the field, they could be great leaders now that taichi and the others are too busy being grown ups
>no, let's make this recently chosen children be the leader because he looks like taichi and has a mary sue for a digimon

Pokemon shills kanto shit like no tomorrow
Yugioh not really since each MC has their own shit going on and wont cross over with another unless its a weird AR world like GX

Yugioh had this problem a while ago with Arc-V where numerous characters got sidelined for "REMEMBER THIS CHARACTER?". The only weird thing is they didn't actually bring Yugi or Kaiba back so it was like if there was weird Gen2/3/4 pandering during Sun and Moon

But no matter how much Taichi and Agumon try they will never surpass Pikachu, Charizard, and Mewtwo being pushed forever.

Keep crying pokefag

more like
each movie is divided in 4 episodes, now 3/4 are dedicated to pointless talk and drama, but that means the last episode will be all about battle, right? well no, because that last 4th episode has also talking and the last 15 minutes are fighting and is the most boring fight

The animation quality and lack of action isn't the biggest issue.
The series just doesn't know what it wants to be. It's trying to balance deeper Digiworld lore, a plot driven by literally who characters, and Digidestined character arcs all at once. And for a nostalgia series it fails to keep a focus on the latter.
There's also the problem of a lack of expression or impact. The characters like to stand around and not emote.
Also also they force the new original the character as a love interest for Tai at the last minute.
