>>12383934>>12383984Okay just to shut you up:
>Monsters that you level up and fight for youThe level up thing is because ALL RPGs do it, the fighting comes from the toys that were fighting pets, neither is a rip-off because it had been done before and it's still done in other games too (ie Pikmin).
>Digital world where those monsters come from-Digimon is an Anime franchise and a spin-off from Tamagochi, the concept of "digital monsters from a digital world" came from the anime to explain why they are digimon (it's because they were originally toy monsters from digital devices, duh).
-In SMT, those digital monsters are actually real demons; In Pokémon it's all real.
>Said monsters evolve into different forms or you can fuse them together into different forms.It's the same as fusing weapons in other games, it's also done in Monster Rancher IIRC.
>All it has are elements from previously established franchises. Tell me what the fuck it does so differently that it's not a rip off.Because:
-When Digimon came on, Pokémon wasn't an established franchise.
-Digimon is NOT a videogame franchise, it's an anime franchise with various liscenced products like videogames, and not all of them are RPGs
-As said before, Digimon expanded on the virtual pet concept; Pokémon was ACCORDING TO SATOSHI TAJIRI based on Final Fantasy.
-If anything, Digimon was more original than SMT and Pokémon because it was its own standalone product and not a videogame that depended on someone else's console system to be played or that borrowed tons of elements from other games.
Also, I can tell you're a troll because you're very good at it.
