Venusmon revealed!

What is the gameplay like?

>eaters are back
>possibly mireis daughter
>evil little girl group drinking tea
spoilers i guess

Oh great its a gay game

>>719165252
Yeah Im not a fan of how much fujo pandering there is.

>>719165138
>eaters are back
Pretty sure that was just Homeros and not an eater.

Mameo looking motherfucker

New character or is it just Mirei in a different form?

>>719165119
Turn based kino

>>719165138
the game takes place in the past. that is young mirei

>>719166468
*licks lips*
*starts panting heavily*

Digimon always goes hard on its visuals

Mirei is the interdimensional digital ghost of a dead girl, I'm sure she can take whatever form she wants

>>719166301
Kiss the Digimon

>>719164378 (OP)
LET US PLAY ALREADYYYYYYY

I really, really hope we get a confirmation for Switch 2 in that september direct.

>>719166783

>>719167684
Holy Fucking Kino

>>719166468

>>719168204
That was made up

>>719164378 (OP)
>Cyber Sleuth
>World: Next Order
>Survive
Which ones are worth playing? I have some nostalgia for season 1 of the anime and the first movie but that's about all my experience with the franchise.

>>719168047
It will most likely be a late port, Bandai want people to double dip.

>>719166468
Any seiyuufags here could tell if this Miyuki or not?
https://x.com/Digimon_game/status/1960703862551028078

>>719168312
Survive is a vn
World Next Order is janky and not really in the same context as World series, more rpg
Cyber Sleuth is the last good game and is the predecessor to Time Stranger which is about to come out. If you want to immerse yourself completely I'd suggest start with Digimon World DS then Dawn/Dusk and finally Cyber Sluth and Hacker's Memory to prepare for Time Stranger.

>>719164790

>>719168312

>>719164790
>eye outlines under bandages
ew

>>719164378 (OP)
which edition are you all pre-ordering? I guess Deluxe makes the most sense since Ultimate is just "p2w"

>>719168845
>The DLC included in the Season Pass will be distributed by September 30, 2026.
There's no reason to buy deluxe IMO, by the time all the DLCs are out you could probably buy the season pass at a discount.

>>719167927

He will be one of the DLC digimanz wont he?

>>719170859
no

>>719171575
That means he and his line will be in the base game right? Right?......

>>719171671
No
He's already getting a major role a probably a new line in Alysion be happy with what you have

>>719164790

>>719166468
why

>>719173097
there should be a mod about this in Cyber Sleuth

Look at this fucking exachad

>>719174469
He looks like he blueballs his wife.

>>719166301

Why does it feel like this highschool girl and shota digimon are being shipped together?

>>719168845
>$69.99
>$99.99
>$119.99

Who are Scamco trying to kid? I bought Digimon Survive for $20 and I thought I got scammed at that price.

>>719174654
I saw a theory of them fusing (like the tamers kids) to allow the shota to go Mega

for me it's wargreymon.

>>719175479
Time Stranger is an actual video game instead of a VN with a very simple strategy game tacked on

>>719168845
The captainhookmon edition

>>719175479
The default price is 70? Yeah fuck that no.

>>719173097
funny

>>719175550
Nah they wouldn't do that

>>719164790
where's ceresmon medium

>>719164790
>Venusmon copies lilithmon's animation
lol

>>719164378 (OP)
Cant get to get my garden waifu team in the game though...

I wonder who will Ceresmon work, a medium form and normal?

>>719164378 (OP)
RPG of the year 2025. No question.

>>719181369
Probably Meidum in battle and summon the big ass turtle in a cutscene. I'd expect all of the Olympus to have one extremely flashy special attack.

>>719181369
2 options
>Ceresmon is exclusive to cutscenes/boss battles and Medium is the one that the player can use
or
>They pull an Apocallymon and Ceresmon is comically tiny

>>719167684
I really need this image in good resolution. That's amazing art.

>>719168312
Survive is a VN with some minimal srpg grid gameplay moments. It's fine but nothing spectacular, but it's also one of the only Digimon games to attempt to capture your personal companions having personalities, which sucks when the game can't match the stories execution.

World: Next Order is deliberately similar in design to original Digimon World, where it's all about the development of your Digis, as well as the exploration and restoration and finding out what is happening.

Cyber Sleuth (and by proxy Hacker's Memory) is a more straightforward JRPG, where you collect Digimon like demons in SMT, evolve them, develop their movesets, alter their stats for maximizing efficiency, and is linear in design. Probably the most succinctly designed games in the series but also very standard.

All are worth playing, but if you want something similar to the series, Survive is the most similar, being kids trapped in the world with companion digimon and events that transpire whilst they explore it. However that's a cautious recommendation as it can become a slog to go through, especially considering you need to do multiple runs to access all the routes and story. World Next Order and Cyber Sleuth are the better places to start, because they are funner games to play, whilst also having solid design all round.

Junomon is going to kill Inori and trigger Jupiter Wrath Mode

>>719166468
Mireimon JC Mode

Nobody cares about digisnoy

>>719181947
>They pull an Apocallymon and Ceresmon is comically tiny
that is the one thing I do not want, I hate looking at Apocallymon, hopefully sinice Ceresmon Medium is treated as a separated digimon in the Surive, they do the same here

>>719168312
Next Order is fun.

>>719168312
Next Order is fun.

This is legit my most anticipated game right now

>>719187252
If anything, Digimon is a Tendie franchise now.

Cyber Sleuth's sales only really blew up after it got ported to Switch.

>>719164378 (OP)
Seeing how well they are marketing this game, with a constant stream of news/trailers, really makes me happy. It's exactly what the digimon franchise needed. I wish level 5 had done the same thing with Inazuma Eleven victory road instead of fucking up almost everything.

>>719164378 (OP)
Jupitermon had eyes?

>>719168312
depends on your tastes.
>cyber sluts + hacker's memory
2 bog-standard RPGs. turn based fights, you scan digimon and assemble your party, level up and evolve your mons, train at the farm, etc. grind can be completely skipped by getting a stack of tactician USBs at the farm and a bunch of platinumshitmons, allowing you to experiment freely. story drags in places and the plot doesn't kick in until the latter half. hacker's memory takes place in parallel to cyber sluts
>next order
pet-raising RPG. you take care of 2 and raise their stats via fights (gym was turned into a crutch this installment). fights are real-time with pauses as you pick an order. your objective is to recruit digimon to come to the city and open facilities which make raising successive generations easier. the enhanced guard command is the very first thing you should get as it is mandatory to clear the game (you can attack while guarding and viceversa). the plot is nothing spectacular. you're trapped in another world and need to find a way out, then find out about a curse that's taking a toll in the digital world, etc. protip: lifespan desyncs are desirable since your old mon can powertrain the new one
>survive
basically a VN with an SRPG minigame tacked on top. feels like an anime season in game format. basically the kids are out on a school camping trip to learn about kemonogami. they enter a tunnel and find themselves in another world. they face many trials as they try to find a way back home. has its moments (especially at the end of each chatper), but with some serious bouts of retardation weaved inbetween. if you hate reading, don't bother. as for the combat, it pretty much comes down to attribute advantage. each unit has a signature attack, all other skills are equippable.

>>719187162
SkullBaluchimon is metal as fuck

>A gigantic Undead Digimon reproduced from the data of several counterfeit fossils, which were in the data of a fossil of what was thought to be the largest land mammal. It has no emotions or intelligence, and because its body operates by reflex with only the data of the nerves laid out within its body, it keeps mercilessly attacking until it can no longer move. It is said that it will plunge any Digimon into the terror of death, either from the curse which forcibly revived it from the data of its corpse, or the cold black vapors which flow unceasingly from its Digicore. Its Special Moves are trampling the opponent with its gigantic feet, burying them underground (Grave Bone), and imprisoning the opponent in the space within its cold black vapors, then chasing them eternally until they die (Deadly Fear).

>>719168845
Ultimate because I'm a richfag

>>719187832
It took me forever to notice Wrath Mode's head IS Jupitermon. His body transforms into its head.

I'm excited for the game but I'm afraid this will play like a 10 years old JRPG .

Will he be in the game?

>>719188429
No, the previous Adventure movie's shitty Agu/Gabumon forms are the only representatives of modern digimon anime in the game

>>719188334
From the demo I tried at AX it felt a lot better than CS.

>>719188554
You tried the demo? Tell me, and this is very, VERY important: what's under FeMC's skirt?

>>719188630
It starts with "b" and ends with "lack void"

>>719188429
you couldn't bear to pay the price for that wish anon. it's best not to tempt ukkomon's magic paw

do we know how many digimons are in there? 100? 200?

>>719164790
Nerfed titties. Woke game

>>719188895
451

>>719188871
No and it probably never will be

>>719188871
It's not a file it's literally just short for monster.

>>719188895
451 based on this screen shoot

>>719189168
>"More than 450 Digimon!"
>451 Digimon
cheeky af devs lmao.

>>719188895
451 not counting dlc but maybe counting preorder dlc.

>>719165138
Will this finally be the game where I can have an Eater Adam on my team?

>>719189384
Whenever they say "more than" a number, it means that it is somewhere between that number and the next 10 (usually less than 5)

>>719175730
Doesn't it have the same gameplay as CS?

I only ever played DW1. Well and a bit of 2 and 3.

How are the story games different?

>>719165138
Nah, those aren't eaters, they're yet another not-digimon type digital entity designed once again by the artist Oh Great, same man that designed Eaters (and Air Gear). So far we've only seen the same monster every couple of trailers so it might not be a species like eaters but a singular entity.

>>719189638
Of the games you've played it's closest to 2. 3 niggas in a row, you recruit wild Digimon, level caps that get higher as you de-evolve and re-evolve.

Will it be gay, tho?

>>719189805
Hopefully not.

Gaytards ruin fandoms.

>>719189825
>he engages in fandoms

Kys faggot.

>>719188895
>>719189168
Interesting.

>>719189032
They buffed Junomon's and nerfed everybody else's truly biased devs

Well that was quick.

>>719189682
Its obviously Plutomon

Unless its not

>>719189384
It's not counting DLC too though so there really will be more

>>719191539
It looked nothing like Plutomon.

>>719188334
So it will be good then

>>719168312
cyber sleuth is the least worst

>>719191629
you look nothing like plutomon

>>719190143
I hope more digimon means the lesser known olympos get some interesting lines, it's going to be really boring if Marsmon is just another Grapleomon evo again, or Merukimon just another Weregarurumon evo, or Venusmon another Angewomon evo.

First Liberator, then Alysion, and now Time Stranger? Why did this franchise suddenly decided to completely nosedive into fujo pandering? Did Bamco just completely forget Digimon was meant for young boys?

>>719193745
>suddenly

Been waiting ages for this big nigga to finally be in a(non-defunct) game.

>>719193745
>Alysion
>fujo
The case is almost entirely female...

>>719193861
Otomeshit then.

>>719193745
It started out with Appmon in 2017, and the yuri-bait with CS a couple years earlier

>>719194017
OK so you don't really know what you're talking about and are just saying words
I presume your actual problem is the prevalence of female protagonists but you're trying not to say that

>>719190143
>139 unrevealed Digimon left
Damn, it would be cool as fuck if like 30 of them were completely new like Skullseadramon and Sharkmon, and keep them a secret for players to discover.

>>719189805
digimon is already super gay anon

>>719194138
Not protagonists, just the fact there are way too much fucking girls in the cast. They really went out of their way to not have one single male character in Alysion, even with the new set of Digimon. That kind of casting decision is deliberate.

>>719194559
Akshually Alysion has a cowboy man and dark Liberator protag as part of its cast

>>719188082
yeah but the fact that titamon was able to tame and subdue a bloodthirsty beast running on pure instinct makes it that much more hardcore

Give it to me raw, chances of Rasielmon?

>>719195518
Maybe DLC

>>719189638
>How are the story games different?
let's see
>no grindy forced DNA digivolution that raises your level cap by floor[2nd mon's EL/5] and reduces your stats by 65% bullshit. devolution is still in the games, but you lose only 10~30% per stat, level caps are MUCH higher, and you can easily recover your stats by holding off on evolution. early titles even grant a % of stats upon evolving
>you can load useless digimon occupying space to get more stats (they started this from lost evolution onward)
>you can massively reduce the grind by using exp boosts. this is especially notable in cyber sluts. makes experimentation fun
>the combat system is completely different. the turn order is shown and digimon may act multiple times per "round." the specifics vary per game
>in the DS RPGs the encounter rate is abnormally high. turning around increases it even more. you must use the touch screen function to peek around before moving to lessen the amount of fights. cyber sluts adds skills to completely disable encounters outright
>in the DS games attributes aren't taken into account. in cyber sluts they are and they mark the difference between 1.5x damage and 0.5x. elements do make a difference but I'm not sure about the damage percentage or resistances
>digifarms are present in all games. specifics vary between games. for every in-game day (cybersluts uses a clock), you can raise stats, raise their resistances to an element, or even craft items (from lost evolution onward). you have to transfer your party members 1 by 1 which fucking sucks, though
>moves may raise or lower stats and/or cause status effects (stun, paralysis, sleep, poison, death)
>the DS RPGs have a lane system wherein attacks target only certain lanes. you can avoid damage (or certain attacks) by positioning your digimon on certain lanes. alternatively, digimon offer boosts to adjacent digimon. large bosses may take damage several times from AoE attacks. cyber sluts scraps the lane system altogether

Jewish worm

>>719195834
forgot to add cyber sluts adds a new status effects (dot, disables techs), and character reversal (inverts attribute effectiveness)

>>719195518
I'm surprised the whole meicoomon line wasn't confirmed already. I would have thought they'd be a shoo-in.

>>719194364
I would not get your hopes up. We dont usually get many new Digimon in games. It usually everything else gets ton more new ones and even then 30 would be considered a lot.

>>719194559
Stop being a stupid nigger nothing changed for 15 years Alysion is an outlier.

>>719196438
>racism
We don't do that here.

>>719168446
That definitely sounds Sawashiro. Just using a softer voice.

>>719196438

>>719196801
cringe and gay

>>719194763
It's unlikely but it'd be cool to have a boss fight against Titamon riding Skull Baluchimon, they'll probably split them up before letting us fight them.

>>719196801

Then why the Barbaman shrieks at the mere mention of Justice Edge Swordman?

>>719197704
I actually thought it was a special attack in battle, especially considering how skullbaluchimon's model looks quite different from what I remember seeing in dusk. besides, separating them would make no sense considering the riding tack is part of the model
lastly, considering digimon is known for pulling off some gimmicks with each game (e.g. the attribute guardians, neocrimson, and gaia are not digimon, mecha rogues are not digimon and dw4's unique boss battles, the grim virus thing is not a digimon and giant bosses taking multiple lanes in the DS RPGs), and time stranger being no exception so far (e.g. parrotmon fight with the lightning gimmick, ultimatebrachimon's gargantuan kaiju size) I want to believe that it's a for boss fight. it would be a waste of cool models and animations otherwise

They still don't understand what people want from a digimon game and keep making gay purse owner lite rip offs instead.

>>719168312
Go for Re:Digitize Decode. You'd have to search the web a bit for the game file+mod though.

There should be a waifu Greymon variant.

my go-to pick in digimon world 4. although guilmon is by far the highest tier in the game (pwr up, pwr down, stab specialist), it makes up somehwat with venom (aoe multi-hit, poison is devastating)

That list didn't account for all returning Digimon from CS and HM which was already confirmed to return.

Just saw a minecraft digimon mod video on youtube. Has anyone played it? Seems fun ngl. It's a digimon raising sim mod + minecraft.

do you also have ladydevigabumon?

Digimon 2025 yadda yadda.

>>719212182
what a beauty

>>719212552
What guy is this?

>>719212837
Magneticdramon.

>>719212893
Oh, it's Pyramidimon's level 7. Like it a lot better than Pyramidimon honestly.

>>719212552
>>719212837
>Magneticdramon

>Mega/Rock Dragon/Virus

>A Digimon whose body is clad in an armor-like layer of hard rock. Although classified as a Rock Dragon, Magneticdramon is actually a unique Digimon whose structural data does not comprise any matter. Its body, which looks as if it were pure electricity, holds substantial energy reserves and produces a powerful magnetic field. It uses the magnetic pull to attract the rocks forming its body.
>The minerals Magneticdramon covers itself with function both as a tough layer of armor and as a weapon. Contrary to its appearance, it is a skillful fighter capable of compensating for its sluggish movements—such as by applying magnetic force onto enemies to pull them in.
>As it is essentially a walking magnetic field, researchers have pointed out that it has a tendency to influence environments of the Digital World. There are concerns that it could have negative effects—such as trigger volcanic activity and tectonic movement—and also impact Digimon ecology, perhaps even causing abnormal Digivolutionary processes.
>Its special moves include Stone Rail Gun, in which it shoots out a high-velocity projectile made from charging the magnets on its body; Electric Compression, which it can use to trap enemies in a powerful magnetic field, crushing them with rocks; and Magnetic Tempest, which delivers a wide-range electromagnetic pulse that temporarily disables its foes' DigiCores and can potentially stun them.

>>719213318
>researchers have pointed out that it has a tendency to influence environments of the Digital World.
Ah yes.
The researchers.

>>719212758
I love him. I need him

You now remember Gururumon exists.

>>719214196
Nearly all reference book profiles are written from the point of view of Digimon Researchers. It doesn't come up much in shows or games, but the V-pet lore is that even the V-pets themselves were developed by Digimon Researchers.

>>719208224
Sex with lizards!

Been playing RE:Digitize this past week, it's hilarious just how much of a better game it was compared to Next Order, the sequel. The fuck were they thinking.

>>719213318
Both the new mon and Close are pure sex.

>>719215197
>re:digitize
you mean the one on PSP? stop that shit right now and play the 3DS version. it has so much more content (evos, story chapters, new digimon, new recruitments) it's almost enough to fit in a new game

>>719215549
Decode. Yeah, I'm playing that one.

So, how come the digitized people can still go back to the real world, but not Mirei?

she cute!

>>719194763
But is it available as a digiride too?

>>719214714
yeah

Weird how they never made a fusion of these 2 after all these years

>>719216528
Because they already have the Burst Modes for Super Ultimate

>>719216528
Do you really want another Omegamon?

>>719164378 (OP)
The more I see of this game the less interesting it is, CS 1 and 2 were kind of a slog anyway so I'm probably skipping this one.

>>719217048
Here's your (You) that you craves so much, faggot.

>>719216528
Shinegreymon is so stupid-looking.

>>719217148
Sorry that your inconsistent-ass franchise is making another fucking Persona ripoff, and that I find that shit boring as fuck.

>>719217495
>Persona ripoff
???

>>719217786
CS games are text-wall fests with limited environments and overtly animu character design, precisely the same as Persona has been since 3.

>>719217495
>>>/vp/

>>719217857
>and overtly animu character design
...Yes?
This is a japanese franchise, did you forget?

>>719217887
>"Disliking Digimon means you like Pokemon"
Rent a brain.
I don't need to choose between a kick to the head and a kick to the balls, but since you want to bring Pokemon into this at least that franchise knows what the hell it is and remains consistent between releases, unlike Digimon that spastically jumps between genres makong sure it never becomes fully established, one day it is a horror visual movel, the next it is a fighting game and the next it is Persona.

>>719218134
>and remains consistent between releases
Yeah, consistently shit lmao

>>719218089
So is Elden Ring.
But there is a clear difference between designs like those in the Digimon anime that have a specific aesthetic and the generic designs they put on CS that could be on anything from SMT to Fire Emblem.

>>719174654
They basically are. The TCG tamer version of hers basically confirms she’s his main partner.

>>719218318
>designs they put on CS that could be on anything from SMT
Maybe because it's the same artist for CS and Devil Survivor, you retarded chimp?

>>719218153
It knows its audience and what they want quality nonwithstanding, which is more than I would expect from a franchise that followed up Xros Wars with more Xros Wars.

>>719218476
And why should the artist supersede the franchise's visual identity? You can't jusst establish a franchise for 20 years wirh a clear visual language and suddenly throw in a radically different art style, particularly if you're combining it with pre-existing designs and asset (The creatures), it's jarring as shit, if the artist were any good he or she would try to follow the franchise's visual identity, not just make another generic batch of indistinguishable ecchi designs.

>>719218623
>not just make another generic batch of indistinguishable ecchi designs
The Digimon themselves show tits all the time, you're just mad it doesn't look like Elden Ring, which is retarded
Digimon is an anime-looking series

>>719218713
The digimon, not the tamers, the tamers aren't supposed to look like Akihabara prostitutes.

>>719218713
kek, and when did I say I wanted that shit to look like Elden Ring? Does this look like Elden Ring to you?
Really the issue here is that you think all anime just looks the same.

>>719218478
yeah, they know pokemonfags will buy anything they shit out lmao

>>719218784
>the tamers aren't supposed to look like Akihabara prostitutes
Literally one of the first Hackers shown in the franchise, from Digital Monster Ver. S

>>719218991
Indeed, and that has made them the best selling franchise in history, while Digimon crawls along alienating half the fanbase every time they release another wildly different game.

Fluff muff when

>>719219026
Where's the best place to read the vpet lore anyway? Wikimon either is offline half the time or doesn't go into a lot of depth.

>>719219517
https://digitalworldarchive.wordpress.com/
This blog has a little bit of everything, but it has a lot of the less well-known lore stuff from V-Jump magazines and toys

Buying it on PC but I don't wanna get a steam deck to play it in bed. What are the odds it comes to Switch 2? I have a medical condition so I spend a lot of time in bed, it's painful to be at my desk for long periods anymore.

Will this be the first mainstream Digimon game?

>>719219756
no, people will be playing pokemon like always
at most you'll get clickbait calling it a pokemon killer
If digimon got mainstream they would whine so much about sexy women

>>719219608
Thanks, always found this sort of stuff neat ever since I got curious about Witchelny and then by extension Magical Witches.

>>719219625
>What are the odds it comes to Switch 2?
They officially haven't said anything, but it's likely they'll probably release it later

>>719164378 (OP)
How many Digimon are there so far? I want a game that has ALL of them.

>>719219848
And the Jewish stereotype. And the Hitler.

>>719220004
more than 1400

>>719220241
HOLY FUCK

I'd love a turn based RPG with that many, even Pokemon doesn't have that much!

>>719219075
>another wildly different game
? It's literally CS. The fuck are you on about you dumb pokenigger

>>719219958
Even if they do, no guarantees physical chads won’t be fucked by game keycard option only with no full cartridge release ever happening. I’ll just be getting it on PS5

>>719217857
so.. JRPG

I want to watch one of the Digimon animes.
But I want the most anti-Pokemon anime of all.

Basically, I want the Digimon anime that's the least similar and reminiscent of Pokemon.

>>719220519
Frontier, but that show is ass. Watch Tamers instead.

>>719220554
I don't care if the anime is good or bad.
Reasons why Frontier is the Digimon anime you were looking for?

>>719218134
>Pokemon at least remains consistent between releases

you mean stagnant

>>719220751
gets better every time

>>719220850
>better

>>719220850
>watered down gameplay
>watered down texture
>watered down graphics
>watered down artstyle
>watered down performance
Sure thing pokenigger.

>>719220908
XY looks better than these two imho. I replayed the series backwards starting from Scarlet. It was super weird that the game kept looking better in reverse. kek

>>719220651
I'm not looking for that shit. If I wanted to watch poor man's Kamen Rider, I have Ryukendo. That's why it's the least Pokémon one, it got rid of the partners so it could try to get the Super Hero Time kids to watch it. If you want something that isn't like Pokémon at all. Fuckin' forget Digimon man, watch Kamen Rider Kabuto. Look at this, and tell me it's anything like Pokémon.

>>719221276
I still see Frontier as a good option.

Any Kamen Rider (or Super Sentai) for me?
>A series without magic or fantasy elements
>A series without fairies
>A series where the hero gains his powers through technology and science
>A series where the villains are all based on technology and science, and don't use any magic.

>>719218134
you're just raising the same tired old talking points /vp/iss faggots do, which means you're clearly not arguing in good faith, so there's no need to engage you further. I won't humor your retardation, whether intentional or not

>>719220751
I'd argue that Digimon is way more stagnant than pokemon is.

>>719221784
Fucking how

>>719221913
Stop entertaining the dumb pokenigger.

Don't argue with retarded /vp/ posters morons, KEEP IT DIGIMON

>>719221659
Kamen Rider Exaid, it's about doctors and video games. Alternatively Kamen Rider Build which is about science and ayylmaos.

>>719222097
Digimon superior
Pokemon sucks and inferior

>>719221913
Anon, in the last decade or so the only Digimon games to release were
Cyber Sleuth
Cyber Sleuth HM
Appmon on 3ds
Super Rumble
Next Order
And Survive.

That's total by the way.
Would you like to compare that to what pokemon has had in that same time frame?

>>719221978
>>719222097
I like how you just want to push the narrative that everyone critical of Digimon is a pokemon fan like we Digimon fans aren't the most critical of Digimon due to how Bamco fucks us over.

>>719222201
Digimon is a multi-media franchise, not a videogame franchise

>>719222312
In theory, I already have my Digimon anime (Frontier).
>>719220519


Which Digimon video game is the least like Pokemon?

I want the game that's the least like Pokemon in every way.

>>719222243
A retarded person who argues output over quality like you doesn't deserve any attention. You're just a fucking retard. Not to mention, the franchise itself is way, way smaller than fucking Pokemon. You want a way smaller team, with barely any funding to shit out games every year like the lazy devs at GameFreak? You're a fucking retard. Retarded fucking retard. Should've stop posting hours ago so that people don't have to entertain your retarded fuck ass.

>>719222312
Do you really want me to bring up the five Digimon adventure 01/02 entries released in that time frame just to drive it home?

>>719222456
>Which Digimon video game is the least like Pokemon?
Play digimon world 4 then.
It's so bad that it's not even like a digimon game.

>>719222505
And I'll tell you about all the non-Adventure stuff, then
Your point is nonsensical

>>719222463
>A retarded person who argues output over quality like you doesn't deserve any attention.
I love this response so much because it outs you as a samefagger while you're complaining everyone else is.
By the by, Digimon isn't a high quality series, colon, CS and Next Order should have told you that.

>>719222201
and beside Hacker's Memory, every single one of them have different story, gameplay, artstyle

what does pokemon have? the same gameplay from 20 years, a bare bone stories, the same structure, some wanna be bad guys that whose master plan is to use legendary pokemon.

I fell off the series after 01. But I always hoped they would bring Piedmon back as a primary threat that guy was the best villain in that series. Done fucking dirty by the random evil end boss out of nowhere.

>>719222589
Reasons why digimon World 4 is the ideal Digimon video game you were looking for?

>>719215197
Really?
The town is way worse on Redigitize and I kind of hated the over reliance on gym training and the almost impossible mini games that you need to do to get the highest stat gain (I had to use savestates just to cheese them).

>>719222726
I've got good news for you bro, they gave Piemon a fusion with Vamdemon (Myotismon) some years ago:
https://wikimon.net/Voltobautamon
It's the main villain of one of Digimon Survive's 4 routes

>>719222886
Please tell me you're just shitposting.
No way this look good in any universe.

>>719222596
>And I'll tell you about all the non-Adventure stuff
Which is just Ghost Game and Appmon.
Doesn't really help prove that Digimon isn't a stagnant series when they keep on going back to Adventure in the interim, does it.

You can even go into toys and see how bad it is, particularly model kits
Two omegamon, three with the limited color version
Three metal garurumon
Four wargreymon, five including the special coating amped one
Two dukemon, this had a special coating version too
Two imperialdramon

It's dire seeing them just rehash everything over and over.

>>719164378 (OP)
I feel like this game is going to flop

>>719222924
I'm definitely playing that one then.

>>719222886
>The town is way worse on Redigitize
Level design-wise, agree. Genuinely fucking hated just how far the toilet is to the gym (until the ShogunGekomon hotel), and generally the way the town is split.
Art-wise, eh, I kinda agree.
>>719222948
Looked a bit better than the narrow and straight paths that's split like a cross ReDigitize desu. But overall, I still liked the way the world looked in ReDigitize, the Sunken Capital is my fav.

>>719222948
What, you mean the design or the graphics?
The town in Redigitize is already built and there's barely any changes when you recruit more Digimon, while the town in Next Order start as a small village before it expands into an actual town with multiple districts. Doesn't help that the town in Redigitize is just a bunch of hallways while Next Order are more varied with more open space areas.

>>719223021
>Which is just Ghost Game and Appmon
And Pendulum Z
And Chronicle X
And Vital Bracelet
And Digimon Dreamers
And the fan webcomic contest
And Digimon Seekers

And the new Card Game
And Digimon Liberator
And you have Beatbreak and Allisyon as upcoming products
You want me to continue, little bitch?

>>719223021
Pokemon literally JUST changed it protagonist from Ash to Lika or whatever. ONE FUCKING Change, and you tell me that franchise is the one not stagnant? GTFO you dumb nigger retard.

>>719164378 (OP)
I hate the direction the Digimon franchise took, focusing on boring humans instead of the relationship with the Digimon partner. The girls aren't even creatively hot, every entry feels more and more like slop...

>>719223293
It'll unironically be a super close clone to Persona if they were to design a game that way. The world games kinda have some of those moments with the non-playables, but not so much since the focus is always on the silent protag. But Time Stranger seems to be putting the silent protag as mainly the witness, but the plot/story progression is centered around Aegiomon and the girl.

>>719223176
Ngl, I wish they'd retain this look.

>>719221659
The current one Gavv
Kabuto like I recommended
Liveman
Megaranger
Timeranger
Kamen Rider Drive

>>719223586
personally, I hope the World games go with that look and the Stories with the one they are going for ST.

also I hope they keep the promise of making World games as well as Stories.

>>719223601
Thanks for the recommendations

>>719222684
>and beside Hacker's Memory, every single one of them have different story, gameplay, artstyle
NTA but not really. At the end of the day every game is
>xyz is wrong and Digimon and humans are crossing over it's not meant to do that!
>go stop it!
By comparison pokemon has only used that exact legendary plot once between now and 2013. Hell, if I remember right in sun and moon the legend was just a battery and was tossed away by the milf.
As for gameplay in that list there's like 4 different styles? I think appmon was turn based.
Pretty sure pokemon beats that in spin offs alone.

>>719189490
no

>>719224424
ok, analogman, it's time to take the pills.

>>719224349
Yet the multi billion dollar franchise can't shit out a game that looks and plays better than a small indie company. Imagine that ey.

>>719223178
NTA but if you grasped at straws like that with pokemon you could probably get triple the list you've posted here so you're not exactly proving your point.
Hell you have a sea of completely different mobile games that already come up to about half of that
Go
That cube one
TCG pocket
Sleep
The moba
That dumb cafe one
Mastersex
So it doesn't really help your argument when you're listing four different vpet releases and acting as if they aren't still just vpets.

>>719224871
Yep, it's a bit shameful of one of the biggest toy makers in the world isn't it but that's bamco for you.

>>719224248
Unfortunately they don't. Anti-tendies are shit on just about everywhere so they just kind of roam about like gypsies.

>>719225237
Yes, I'm sure shitting out products to a potential customer of 3 million is at all similar to a franchise with a potential customer of around 500 million. Same ball park, for sure! I'm sure BamCo don't have any other franchises that they need to fund, unlike the POKEMON Company. Yeah, similar in size and scope too, you dumb pokeretard.

>>719225398
>I'm sure shitting out products to a potential customer of 3 million is at all similar to a franchise with a potential customer of around 500 million.
You're right, the former are made up of people with battered wife syndrome so they'll just pretend anything is good.

>>719225482
>says this while championing pokemon
Oh the irony.

>>719225398
>I'm sure BamCo don't have any other franchises that they need to fund, unlike the POKEMON Company.
As the second largest toy manufacturer on the planet they aren't exactly jonesing for money. Maybe you should demand more of them instead of making excuses.

>>719225520
Who's championing pokemon? I haven't said anything about them.

I hate the fact that our usual cabal of anti-Nintendo fuckwits are latching in to Digimon. Can't criticise those lazy fucks at all without some dipshit crying about Nintendo now.

>>719225572
We did, and we got an even better game from a passionate dev team. Maybe YOU should ask TPC to invest on GameFreak so they could not release an embarrassment of a game after another.
>>719225624
I did. In the post that you responded to, you dumb retard. Can't read?

>>719225669
Nintendo doesn't make pokemon schizo

>>719225398
I can tell you were a pokefag at one point and are just latching on to Digimon to fill the hole Pokemon left behind. You're applying the same dumbass copes to Bamco that pokefags do Gamefreak. Do you think Digimon is poor? The second most popular multimedia monster catching franchise?
You have a lot of growing up and reflection to do. Maybe you should actually look at the game industry as a whole before deifying Digimon games just because you deified Pokemon games before.

>>719217370
no u

>>719225748
Problem is not TPC but gamefreak itself. They don't want anyone else touching pokemon. Even when remakes got outsourced they still were there to fuckup.

>>719224196
why did the eater remove her leggings and give her a ball gag

>>719226783
The problem with that is....?

>>719222201
In the same timeframe Pokémon had
>Sun and Moon
>Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon
>Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee
>Sword and Shield
>Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl
>Legends Arceus
>Scarlet and Violet

... Really not that much more.
And of these seven releases, you have two remakes, both of which are considered worse than the originals, and main titles of widely-agreed worsening quality.

Compared to the Digimon list, which are all entirely different games with the exception of Hacker's Memory.

>>719226131
I'm a fan of both since I was a kid you dumb twat. Seeing Pokemon games barely evolve and now even regressed is painful, yet their games still sell a fuckton millions more than even the likes of fucking Final Fantasy, yet the production value is nowhere close to FF let alone fucking SMT and Persona. I give Digimon a lot of leniency because I know their games barely sold, CS+HM only sold like 2.5 million, and that is after deep, deep discount. They can push as much merch as they can, we all know it will never sell 1/10th of what Pokemon can bring on day one. Despite that, Time Stranger from the looks of it, seems to be a game with more effort and passion put to it, unlike LZA. While Sc/Sv sold like, what 16 million copies? Where's the fucking investment from that success?

>>719223293
>I hate the direction the Digimon franchise took, focusing on boring humans instead of the relationship with the Digimon partner. The girls aren't even creatively hot, every entry feels more and more like slop...

Yeah, my ideal Digimon game would have been Survive if you flipped the gameplay to VN ratio and you could move around the world instead of point & click. Because Bamco's idea of a good story is a bunch of one-note characters endlessly rehashing the exact same talking points with each other on loop.

Even Time Stranger Aegiomon is probably the most humanised Digimon yet. If you don't look below his waist he's just looks like some tribal kid. I want a story where the fact you're a tamer actually means something.

>>719230407
The problem with the dream of "a Digimon game where the Digimon are real characters" is that you will necessarily have to limit the player's choice of Digimon in some way.
You could do it where the player has a canon partner who's always present in the story, and in gameplay give player full freedom as usual, but then you're not forming a bond with that partner. The story and gameplay are now at odds with each other.
But people also wouldn't want a forced partner that you needed to use for the whole game.

>>719229449

For one Legends ZA actually have the monsters animate and hit each other. Time Stranger has the same broke- ass battle system where the monsters attack the camera and then the camera swaps to the target with a coloured explosion they've been using for 3D Battles since Digimon World 2.

I don't see where you see the passion because beyond slightly shinier new Digimon models than Cyber Sleuth and an actual digital world, it looks like the same half-assed slop underneath except they're asking for $70 this time. I can't see how you think Pokemon hasn't evolved when Digimon Story is literally the same overworld exploration as it was on Nintendo DS and a battle system from PS1 (counting Digimon World 2 as the Story origin).

Why don't you actually give some examples where you're seeing the advancement in Digimon that isn't just superficial graphical enhancement?

>>719230872
>Time Stranger has the same broke- ass battle system where the monsters attack the camera and then the camera swaps to the target with a coloured explosion they've been using for 3D Battles since Digimon World 2.
Why are you making this complaint when mainline Pokémon is also still doing this.

Legends is a less-abstracted system so of course they should actually interact in-battle.
You can bet your ass the next mainline game will go back to Pikachu sliding forward an inch while an effect overlays the enemy Pokémon who responds with a canned hit animation.

>I can't see how you think Pokemon hasn't evolved when Digimon
Observing the state of Pokémon does not require comparison to anything other than previous Pokémon games.
>is literally the same overworld exploration as it was on Nintendo DS and a battle system from PS1 (counting Digimon World 2 as the Story origin)
As if Pokémon has changed either of these at all since the Game Boy.

>>719231208
Ok so you're a retard who doesn't know what they're talking about. Scarlet and Violet did everything you've listed.

>>719223293
I mean the game will focus on Inori's relationship with Aegiomon.

>>719231336
OK well I just pulled up a longplay, clicked to a random battle and... wow! The characters don't move! Just like I said!

I guess they give you a mount that lets you jump and glide. Is that it? Is that your big win?
We will of course be ignoring how Scarlet/Violet infamously ran like rancid dogshit because Game Freak doesn't know how to make games.

>>719218921
The artstyle of the first four digimon anime series hasn't been used for nearly two decades now and it wasn't universal even when it was in active use. It's quite far from being a major aspect of the franchise's visual language. It's also ugly as shit in retrospect, ain't nobody gonna want to look at big-ass hands forever

>>719223176
My only beef with NO's town was the generic as fuck shopping district. It lacked personality. The other areas at least looked like built by Digimon.

>>719232179
It used to be the artstyle for all Story games before CS

>>719222726
You fight 3 Piemons at once in Next Order (before fighting his evil fusion evo) and it's by far one of the hardest fights in the game because they got so much crowd control effects.

>>719230872
What part of having realistic expectation do you not understand? Just SC/SV, sold more than the entire Digimon game series combined. Yet, you can't expect them to have "superficial graphical enhancement"? Not only that, from what we've seen so far, there's less environmental variety than fucking Arceus. Compared CS to TS, the fact that there is an actual Digital World with a town is already an improvement over how barren CS interwebs were. The thing you're missing here, is the fact that TS actually look like a proper JRPG, with production quality/budget that is within it's possible target reach which is around 1-2 million. Compared to Pokemon, which can easily push 10 million copies day one with each release, something that even a lot of AAA game could even dream to achieve, like ffs, even fucking Persona 5 SERIES (base+royal+striker), hasn't reached 10 million, you seriously think the shit that GameFreak is pushing out with LZA is acceptable? There's not even fucking voice acting, or even partial voice acting, like a lot of contemporary JRPGs. Just look at the "cutscene" in the webm, it's embarrassing just how lazy it is.

>>719164378 (OP)
I don't understand how they keep making these games
>Basic ass slop anime story
>Basic ass jrpg gameplay
>Shitty graphics
>Shitty maps
>Poor sales
I guess the animations are better than Pokemon but that's not a high bar.

>>719232276
Re:Digitize, anon. They've used the Durararara! character designer since then, not CS. I think going forward they'll probably stick to him. At least for Story games. Next Order and Survive use a different artist though.

Can somone tell me what happened to royal knight Ultra Veedramon in CS?

>>719232179
>The artstyle of the first four digimon anime series hasn't been used for nearly two decades now
Colon went back to it in 2020
>It's also ugly as shit
You're fucking retarded

Also the kids have big hands and feet because it makes them look like kids.
Even as early as middle school their proportions start balancing out to show that they're older. Adults look normal.

Did I see an Evangelion hanger in the trailer?

>>719232840
Got clapped inbetween dimensions so he's either ultra dead or will cameo in some future game as some nomad that can't find his way home.

>>719232840
He got stuck on the dimensional wall. Also what the fuck with this shitty captcha, moot?

Adamas will be the real final bosses.

I’m guessing they’re going for that whole “Umineko” trope where there are overseer characters talking to you and narrating outside the scope of the immediate story.

>>719233506
It's gonna be Junomon: Hera Mode because her husband chooses a mere human over her.

Dan will be the final boss if you picked feMC and vice versa.

I don't know much about digimon but enjoyed cyber sluts/hackers memory, does it seem like I should give this a try?

>>719234246
It's pretty much the same game with a higher budget and production. So, yeah, of course.

>>719234246
It's the update to CS/HM gameplay wise so yeah, they have fixed a bunch of gameplay issues from CS already

>>719167684
So basically you get the heroine and her male digimon partner together? Seriously, what is this cuck shit? Even worse if you play a male character lol Pirate for me.

As anyone expecting the game to be more than a 7.5/10? It looks cozy, but the higher scores will be resting on the narrative.

>>719234519

>Michaelangelomon… get the digi-chisel

>>719235091
That seems to be a reasonable score. The highest I could see, maybe an 8 or 8.2. I wonder about the loop. Is the town the actual hub or Shinjuku?

>>719234840
he's happily married

So the girl and the Aegiomon have been recognised as anomalies to terminate but then you become best friends?

>>719235452
I mean what else was it meant to be? Kids don’t play JRPGs, so you have to pander to the millennials in their 30s now.

>>719235271
That kill order is probably a mid game twist. You'll betray Adamas by choosing to spare them.

>>719235452
>now
indeed, venusmon has existed for 14 years now and designs like angewomon and ladydevimon have been around since the 90s

>>719235635
Mid game? That shit will be at the 3 hour tutorial mark.

For me it's deep savers.

YOOOOO THAT SONG AT THE END OF THE TRAILER

yes yes, it's good and all.
But we can all agree to keep the recolormons out of town, right?

Who are these Umineko Lolita’s in the trailer

>Ultimate edition sold out

What do I do

>>719223178
>And Digimon Pendulum Color
>And the Monster Hunter and Godzilla crossover V-Pets
Please dont bring those up. A good amount of vpet collectors like me arent amused at how they keep rehashing the barebones original dm (and now pendulum) at hyper premium prices. I say that as a fucking retard who bought all of those because they havent released anything better than the x devices (which i also bought the overpriced versions from last year) from 5 years ago.

This looks really good man. The trailer is so good, that it makes me want to finish Hackers Memory.

Imagine how good the threads will be on release.

>>719227919
Anon, he included spin offs and games made by other devs meaning the list for pokemon is more like
>Sun and Moon
>Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon
>Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee
>Sword and Shield
>Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl
>Legends Arceus
>Scarlet and Violet
>ZA
>Pokken/Deluxe
>Super Mystery Dungeon
>Mystery Dungeon Remake
>Detective Pikachu
>Detective Pikachu Returns
>Unite
>New Snap
That's not all of them either, this is just what's on console. If you include mobile then you have
>Go
>Sleep
>Unite
>Masters EX
>Cafe Remix
>TCG Pocket
>Quest
In addition they also rereleases the gen 1 and 2 games during that 10 year period on 3DS and the Stadium games on NSO whereas the old Digimon games are still stuck on their original systems.

The list dwarfs the digimon one having far more unique games.

There are a lot of anime references in the trailer.

I see Shin Sekai Yori, Evangelion, Digimon The Beginning, Tamers, Adventure’s pilot movie, Umineko.

I wonder if any YouTube channels or forums online will pick up on that stuff in the trailer. You could probably piece together the plot they’re going for with those references.

>>719237117
I wouldn't entertain peooke using Digimon to shitpost about pokemon. They literally have no perspective on these matters or how the fans feel.
I mean, do you really think he would have mentioned the vital bracelet if he knew that was the biggest middle finger to us?

>>719237829
Please dont mention the VB to me either. I fell for the scam and literally got scammed on it due to the way they released the VBBE pricing model on pbandai BEFORE it goddamn got revealed.
It didnt help that it was such a goddamn shit device with an even more inaccurate pedometer/heartrate monitor. I just want to forget that thing even existed.

>>719222886
nearly everyone cheats at those, sadly (pressing the home button pauses them, giving you time to think). they also destroyed my hinge (suddenly hitting A when reacting to the boxing glove causes the console to wobble and the hinge to snap)

>>719225748
>We did, and we got an even better game from a passionate dev team.
HA, you're joking right? If its a passionate game why have they taken half a decade to make more of the same with a minor bump in graphics?
Why are they making black agumon and gabumon pre order bonuses? And if you knew anything about Digimon you'd know that's a red flag since there's a non zero chance they might not be obtainable in the main game because of that.
Why is a solid chunk of the roster STILL recolors? Again, they had half a decade.
Why are we only getting 5 Digimon in the dlc? We don't even know if that's referring to lines or just single Digimon.

I could go on but holy fuck. I love Digimon as a series but if you think this shit is a good game then there's just no hope.

>>719238132
Same here, I imported my and had to buy the larger strap.

Which broke anyway because the quality was so poor.

>>719229449
the main problem with pokemon is they're glorified merch ads. any daring, enterprising ideas are promptly shot down by corporate. what's more, since the series has to adhere to (((international standards))) from all parts of the world, anything remotely "offensive" is cut off. they literally can't make dieting jokes or references and allusions to anything, lest a single country doesn't get it
>>719223293
the digimon/partner dynamic is shown through actual characters. while the protagonist is just a blank slate, they have other characters that get scenes with their partners showing their development, like nokia and agumon and gabumon, himari and her angewomon, kouta and his guilmon, mameo and his mugendramon, and inori and aegiomon
they seem to be keeping the protagonist a mime intentionally to avoid favoritism. something tells me that there'd be quite a lot of backlash if they picked a protagmon like the joker games did with the incarnus

>>719237117
Well when it comes to Colors we're at least seeing a very slow improvement over each entry. The godzilla one has an interesting mechanic with its G cells that actually carry over between evolutions and can actually be lowered. Also like how they finally brought back the X closw up shots of mons and how they can be viewed in the library section even for digimon that cannot battle like Koromon.

Anon, you're posting these documents but none of them contain anything particular interesting especially when compared to the lore heavy SV that kept people talking about it until the final dlc. It's mostly just lame jokes.

Regardless we're talking about it as a game and not for the narrative.

>>719238642
>something tells me that there'd be quite a lot of backlash if they picked a protagmon like the joker games did with the incarnus

Thats genuinely good to know since I have the godzilla set coming in soon. Im very happy to hear that they brought back the detailed closeup from x. Im still not happy about the price though and how we're pretty much nearly a second class citizen compared to tamogachi.
>>719238609
My copy didnt break and i bought a new strap right away just because the vpet brick strap looked gaudy as shit. The quality of the vbbe is just trash in general. It had a deceptive advertising with how it shifted away from the selling to kids as a toy to more fitness oriented people during the inital campaign. I bought it precisely because of that thinking it would be better built.

>>719238642

The fact that they spent that much time on this game does mean that they are passionate enough to keep working on it for that many years, not to mention avoiding cancellation altogether which is quite common for projects with dev issues like this. Redoing or retouching 400+ Digimon is not easy, even GameFreak struggled with it. Heck, there's a reason why even AAA RPGs struggle with character/mob asset variety and why a lot will just offshore it elsewhere and/or outright buy them. For a franchise with unique designs like Pokemon or Digimon or any other monster catching/raising sims, that is an even harder task, because they can't just offshore it to a brand new partner or buy the models elsewhere, it won't align with their artstyle. I can at least appreciate and understand the amount of work they went through for this game, just by judging from the trailers and game snippets. Especially for a team the size of around 300-500 people (assuming they haven't recruited or expanded much after Cybersleuth). Whether it is good or not, that's up to you to decide. I played CS and HM from start to finish, I liked it. Do I have issues with it, of course. Did I enjoy it, yeah. Will I enjoy TS, most probably yeah. Fuck it, despite my grievance with nu-Pokemon, I still enjoyed SV, LA, XY, SW/SH. But the fact to the matter is, at least the smaller Digimon team polish up on presentation and TS now look at least comparable to other anime-styled JRPG and doesn't just looked like remastered PSP/Vita games, which was what CS/HM was. Funny enough Survive was the only game developed from the ground up for last gen console.

>>719240870
Wonder how they'll explain her being there. She's basically an digital being, but hers is basically tied to CS and ReDigitize world. Wait, how did she exist in CS's world? Are ReDigitize, Next Order exists in the same world as CS?

>Redoing or retouching 400+ Digimon is not easy, even GameFreak struggled with it
NTA but you can't compare pokemon to Digimon like that
A 400 count for pokemon is more along the lines of a 410 to 450 count depending on what mons are in the game. For example Rotom, you have the original form and the five others for a total of six.
With Digimon it's the opposite being sub 400 due to the amount of exact recolors.
An agumon and a black Agumon is the same model.

Also take into consideration that including DLC Time Stranger is going to have about 460 monsters while pokemon SV is currently sitting at about 826 or so, again, not counting forms, in fact it has the most pokemon in a pokemon game to date and they all needed those same touch ups. That's also in addition to two new maps to explore, I doubt we'll get a dungeon retexture in Time Stranger
>at least the smaller Digimon team polish up on presentation and TS now look at least comparable to other anime-styled JRPG
Which is the problem. It's like the video game equivalent of slapping a filter on to make an ugly person look beautiful.

>>719245030
So, she can just cross servers if she wants to? Was Cybersleuth, ReDigitize and Next Order in the same world? In ReDigitize, the digital world from Rina's perspective, is a videogame, right? While in Cybersleuth, it does seem like no one knew about the digital world even existing, hinting at the "game" that Rina was playing in her world, didn't exist in Cybersleuth.

At least we got a filter. Can you even say the same about Pokemon? No voice acting, no animation apart from basic movement and hit, somehow looked worse than previous entries because TPC are greedy and push GameFreak to release their games in quick succession. They have all the money in the world, have one of the most loyal fanbase out there, and what did they gave in return? A "fresh" combat system that is outdated if you've played at least some real time JRPGs in the last decade. I honestly don't know what to tell you anymore. Digimon and Pokemon aren't fighting the same battle, they aren't even in the same ballpark. We play the same sport, sure, but Pokemon is like the Major Leagues, and Digimon is like elementary baseball, not even college baseball. It's reasonable for us to expect merely a "filter", but for Pokemon? Of course people are going to expect more, and yet they can't even deliver the base level of expectation for their games, despite raking in sales that only shit Elden Ring and R* games could match. At least, at the very fucking least, make something that is at least on the level of Persona 3RE in terms of overall presentation ffs. And that's already a low bar for games from the last generation. Surely TPC can spare some chinese or malaysian animators to at least animate some 2D anime cutscenes for their game ffs. Is that too much to ask?

>>719216528
I always wondered if they originally designed to be royal knights and then walked back it wouldn't fit the plot of the anime. They certainly look the part, arguably more so than Kentaurosmon.

>>719246412
>Was Cybersleuth, ReDigitize and Next Order in the same world?

No they're all separate. She can cross dimensions/parallel universes/etc. with Mastemon. She became a digital entity due to something in decode (I never played it.) World 1 and Next Order are different parallel universes too but Mameo was from World 1 somehow.

>>719248248
I always thought it was neat how MirageGaogamon has a Digital Hazard like Megidramon and Lucemon. I don't think it ever showed up since.

>>719248416
I wonder what's their plan for her. Is she going to forever be the human "mascot" character? She's fine, but after Re:Digitize, the character herself isn't really that interesting. Although, storywise she's pretty detached from Cybersleuth. Maybe she'll get a bigger role in Time Stranger? Who knows, hope so.
>She became a digital entity due to something in decode
A scientist/researcher got sucked into a portal during an experiment gone wrong kinda stuff and since then forever stuck in the Digital World in Re:Digitize.

I'm thinking that's the thing that will change the most this time. In CS she was only there as the evo janny, now that evolutions can be done wherever there has to be something actually plot-related for her to do.

>>719248091
>At least we got a filter. Can you even say the same about Pokemon?
That's the point, it doesn't need one because at its core it's offers far more where it matters.
I mean, are you really going to say that the game with more content in terms of monsters, minigames, explorable areas and so on is worse than the one with less just because the latter has a bit of make up? No. As a game it's objectively inferior regardless of what it looks like
>I honestly don't know what to tell you anymore.
Of course you don't, and that's because you don't actually like either series, it's just a shitposting tool for you. Just look at your post, you've written a lot, sure, but all you've really said is
>gamefreak have money and I don't like that!

>but Pokemon is like the Major Leagues, and Digimon is like elementary baseball,
Not really. Bamco is the second largest and second highest earning toy maker in the world with their yearly earnings being not too far off from TPCs. I'm addition every other franchise they own gets more love but Digimon is always thrown the wayside even even it's sister series Tamagotchi is treated better.
>Of course people are going to expect more,
Thing is, "more" to you isn't actually more. You want eyecandy, not substance.

Digimon games aren't that great, but half baked minigames that run at 15fps and a near nonexistent postgame (I'm not counting DLC, fuck you) aren't exactly what I call more content or substance either. Trying to pit two franchises that gave up on quality a long time ago and instead just try to milk retarded manchildren out of nostalgia money is dumb, though. Pokemon does that better obviously, but that's because Digimon never bothered to establish a coherent identity early on and nearly died because of it.

Why can't it release already?

All of them are good enough to play, Cyber Sluts is my favorite of the three, World: Next Order is good too for the OG gameplay loop of shitting Digimon. Survive is a VN you can honestly pirate without any worries since the gameplay in it is ass outside the VN segments.

>>719250034
Continue being stupid, anon. I don't care. Everyone in the gaming community knows Pokemon fans are retarded. No matter how many times people say it to your dumb fucking faces, you retards will never ever acknowledge the fact that TPC screws you and your retarded fanbase for decades. You still think your franchise is comparible to Digimon. Digi-fucking-mon. Are you seriously 'avin a laugh? This isn't the 90's anymore. Your franchise should be AT LEAST be compared to the likes of what, Final Fantasy, heck even nu-FFs couldn't rake in sales to anywhere close to what each Pokemon games could reach, and that series evolved gamesplay with almost each iteration, new worlds built from scratch, while also having presentation the likes that Pokemon could only dream off. You think a "fresh" combat system where the AI flailing around in 3D space (more like only moving around the X and Y plane) waiting for the CD meter is that much of an achievement for Pokemon? kek Even Digimon figured out real time movement and action in Digimon World fucking 1. Welcome to the early 2000's I guess, Poketard. That's the level of "gameplay improvement" in 20-fucking-25. Can't even be bothered to add in basic commands like move or buckle up or keeping distance. A "fresh" combat that is shallower than fucking Next Order. kek.

>>719249830
If you're talking about the X-Antibody variants, then yeah, that opens a whole bag of lore worms. The presence-or absence-of the X program kinda tells you if Yggdrasil is pulling strings behind the scenes. But if we're running on an alternate server framework without Yggdrasil, then the X-Antibody probably doesn’t exist in a narrative capacity, unless they retcon it into some other digital failsafe. Or worse, they’ll just slap "X" on them for merch appeal and not explain shit like with Hackmon’s dozen forms.

Unfortunately that's not up to you. Their existence is a fact that you can't deny as much as you want to cry about it. Same with the DLC because we're comparing games with their dlc.

Then why bother doing this in the first place? If you didn't want to have this conversation because it aggrivates you you shouldn't posted.
>Pokemon does that better obviously
The sad part is that it really doesn't. Yeah, pikachu is a mascot and all but you can't compare it to all of the things that the adventure mons get especially Agumon and Gabumon.
Not to mention how many times they go back to Adventure. Pokemon XY was probably the worst example of Gen 1 wank but it doesn't compare to the absurd amount of adventure wanking and references throughout the series. If I remember right Appmon had a whole episode dedicated to Agumon where they even used Brave Heart for it and this isn't a Digimon series proper, it's the persona to Digimon's SMT but I digress.

At that point it's just a difference in sheer scale of the franchise.
Of course Pokémon pumps out spinoffs and licenses to other devs to keep shit in the pipeline, it's literally the biggest media franchise on Earth.

Even titans like Star Wars don't match their output.

>>719251563
>You still think your franchise is comparible to Digimon. Digi-fucking-mon.
Yes, yes they should be.
The issue here is that you're seeing it from the perspective of someone who's only concerned about brand, whereas I'm not. My only concern is how they are as games and what they provide me as a player.
>Your franchise should be AT LEAST be compared to the likes of what, Final Fantasy,
That's not any better considering FF games are considerably worse than Digimon games.
You really have no clue what you're talking about, do you.
On that note
>Even Digimon figured out real time movement and action in Digimon World fucking 1. Welcome to the early 2000's I guess, Poketard.
I find this ironic given how many elements pokemon had in the early 2000s that a lot of series are only just adopting now like how SMT only just adopted abilities.
By the by, why Digimon World is in real time you didn't have much control over your Digimon meaning they're two completely different styles of gameplay.

Fucking pokezoomers fuck off.

>>719252506
What the fuck is that picture holy shit.

>>719241849
What the hell is this character order

>>719252201
>At that point it's just a difference in sheer scale of the franchise
Thing is, they reached that scale because they were willing to actually support it. Even back in the 90s it wasnt as if it was just the mainline pokemon games, you had stadium, snap, hey you, TCG, Pinball a metric fuck ton of merch.
They basically took the risk of supporting it and won out while Bandai was always conservative with Digimon.

>>719252418
>you didn't have much control over your Digimon
confirmed for not playing the game. actions toop placve immediately faggot
re:digitize added move and block, further building on the formula. oh, and co-op battles and a story mode and colosseum floor that can be beaten in co-op

>>719164378 (OP)
I cannot begin to care about the shallow lame characters they put in these games

>>719252506
You're not going to get them to leave as long as Digimon exists. Their hatred for pokemon is irrational and they'll use anything as a tool, even my precious Digimon.

>>719252653
>confirmed for not playing the game. actions toop placve immediately faggot
Okay? No one said it didn't.
What was said is that you didn't have much control over your Digimon.
Why are you even replying if you're just going to embarrass yourself like this. It's not like you're even a Digimon fan.

>>719252632
>Even back in the 90s it wasnt as if it was just the mainline pokemon games, you had stadium, snap, hey you, TCG, Pinball a metric fuck ton of merch.
Yeah it's almost as if it caught like wildfire and became a global sensation virtually overnight. Are you not old enough to remember Pokémania?
There was no risk in supporting Pokémon. It was free money.

Bandai wasn't being conservative, especially not back then. They were being realistic with the success they had.

>>719252847
>What was said is that you didn't have much control over your Digimon.
you do. you're just too retarded to put 2 and 2 together
>orders take place immediately
>you have target switch and distance commands
>block command to stop it from moving and attacking so you can time your commands
that's plenty of control
and re:digitize pushed things to the next level with added movement markers over 10 fucking years ago, which lza's trainers work as
lza ripped it all off. it's a sad rip-off

>>719251663
The X-Antibody exists by virtue of the fact that Alphamon is in the game.
Not that they'll reference it necessarily but technically it's there.

Seems like the story is going to be shit
You just watch the fujo self insert fuck the shota goat

>>719253457
>fujo self insert
>fucking engaging in straight sex
Stop using words incorrectly

>>719252506
i love the gross evil teeth baby digimon have

>>719217370
I think he's the only decent looking member of that line.

>>719218134
>remains consistent between releases
Post Switch? Fuck no. Every game after BW has been worse than the last, with the Switch games being an insult to the franchise as a whole.

>>719253457
>fujo self insert fuck the shota goat
I wish

>>719252928
>Are you not old enough to remember Pokémania?
How exactly do you think that happened anon? Do you think that they planned for it to be successful from the outset?
>There was no risk in supporting Pokémon
Yes, yes there was. There's always a risk with a new IP BECAUSE it's new. Things don't just start out exceedingly popular you need to push it along and that involves putting more money into it which is a risk. That's how it works.

>Bandai wasn't being conservative, especially not back then.
Yes, yes they were. A lot of the toys, merch and deals came out late when Digimon as a series was starting to wane. I mean, Digimon Adventure and World released like two years after the vpet and they were the only tertiary media released to the west as well at the time, it's not like we had V-tamer at the time. Hell after 98 they basically stopped localizing the vpets until the 20th anni ones. We didn't get Pends, Minis, Accel, twin, nothing. It was basically those digivice half assed ones or nothing.

>this thread
Pokefags really do ruin everything, huh

>>719252506
>"fuck off" when YOU brought them in to begin with by attacking unprovoked
eh

>>719254408
What did you expect? They hate pokemon because they haven't tried anything else.

>>719253960
>How exactly do you think that happened anon?
It released on the most popular handheld device at the time and had two versions which promoted interaction between players.
By comparison, Digimon debuted as a masculine counterpart to Tamagotchi, which had already dominated the v-pet market, a market which was quickly fading from relevance.
It doesn't take a genius to see why one became so much more popular than the other.
>There's always a risk with a new IP BECAUSE it's new.
No, not when it blows up like that. At that point it's guaranteed sales and you pump out as much related product as possible, which is exactly what they did.

>Hell after 98 they basically stopped localizing the vpets until the 20th anni ones. We didn't get Pends, Minis, Accel, twin, nothing.
Because the v-pet trend was short-lived and Digital Monster was already coming in near the end of its popularity. Especially in the West.

You didn't answer the question but I can tell that no, you are not old enough to remember those days.

>>719254463
Thing is looking through the replies these so called "pokefags" are just tamer fans.

>>719254497
I'm talking about the Pokemon fags in an eternal war against Digimon

>>719254584
yeah, what i said

>>719250079
I thought Yggdrasil existed on all digital worlds, he just doesn't interfere with independent servers like Illiad.

Mating with female Digimon!

Sex with digital women (Mirei, Ami and Rina)!

>>719255023
>>719255151
I agree with both of these.
More the former than the latter, but still.

>>719254548
>It released on the most popular handheld device at the time and had two versions which promoted interaction between players.
Okay, so why wasn't Battle Network as popular as pokemon?
What about Robopon?
Demikids?
Medabots?
You can say that about a lot of games you know.
>It doesn't take a genius to see why one became so much more popular than the other
And yet here you are unable to give an answer as to how.
Luckily I already did, they spent money on it, they took a risk and it paid off.
>not when it blows up like that
That's not how it works, things don't just randomly "blow up" like you think it does

>You didn't answer the question but I can tell that no, you are not old enough to remember those days.
Oh I answered. You won't notice though because you don't know what it was like before pokemon.

>>719254628
There is no war.
You have pokemon fans and Digimon fans who are chill with each other.
Then you have pokefags who hate pokemon but have also only ever played pokemon and haven't developed any kind of standards for video games.
