No shit sherlock, it's amost as if digimon actually has time to develop shit because they actually have to worry about people buying their games, meanwhile pokemon can shit out whatever they want and YOU will buy it anyways

But digimon isn't a game about monster collecting. It's a virtual pet sim with a battle system tacked on really. Only a few digimon games like Cyber Sluts do the collecting thing, and those games are far from the original concept of the digimon world games. If you want to see what happens when digimon follows the "gotta catch em all" route and why it's a bad idea watch Xros Wars. That shit was awful.

It just comes off as too much of a Pokemon clone to me, from the evil team the collecting digimon rather than having a digimon as a partner and bonding with them. It just felt cheap, like they were trying to cash in on a trend that Pokemon had started. Like I said before, Shoutmon is great on his own, but everything else about the series drags it down. At least you get some coomer shots of Mervamon I guess?

Honestly I disagree and feel like Xros Wars has a bit more of a One Piece feel over a Pokemon feel. While not every Digimon gets a lot of screentime, especially the pure gag characters, the main cast gets fleshed out and characterized with their own backstories. Additionally they don't really 'catch' Digimon but they instead choose to join the team, which I feel is an important distinction from Pokemon which generally defaults to battling to join a team. I generally enjoyed Xros Wars, but I also admit it's a slower burn and definitely not for everyone.

Hunters I can agree was a dumpster fire though and actually just did away with the concept of maybe fleshing out more than the primary Digimon in a squad so I can't argue there.

It would get more credit if it released outside of Japan, but it didn't. It doesn't deserve credit if the publisher makes no effort to reach a wider audience, it's deservedly niche.

Good game, though, one of the only games with X Antibody Digimon.

Truth is, there are multiple types of Digimon games, with what you're describing only covering a specific selection of them. Entries like Digimon World 3, DS, and Cyber Sleuth have greater degrees of monster hunting, and more fleshed out battle systems.

I can see where you're coming from with that. Honestly the backstories were great in Xros Wars now that i think about it. I guess I just wasn't feeling it as much as other Digimon series like Tamers. In the end maybe we just want different things out of Digimon as an IP which is fine. At least it feels good to talk about Digimon with someone and not having it devolve into shipper nonsense or Adventure seething. Do you post in the /digi/ general on /vg/?

Honestly I've dipped into /digi/ now and again but not recently. It was partly because the Adventure reboot was taking over every fandom discussion and I was just not invested in the series. I should probably go back again.

I know that feel. I ended up dropping the reboot halfway through and still haven't finished it. Liking ghost game though and I hope that survive will be good. Since the reboot though things have definitely slowed down. Hope that the new game will kick up some more discussion. Besides watching ghost game the only thing I've really been playing is the TCG lately. Haven't touched a world game in a couple months, but that's how it goes. It feels like you lose the drive the play vidya as you get older.

The game system is too autistic. You spend so much time leveling stats that by the time you finish your Digimon will only have several days left to live and after its death you will need to start over.

the battle system is a lot of a fun, and the monster raising is what you should expect out of digimon considering that's half of the concept of digimon. you train them, and battle them, and start over training a new way to unlock different evolutions.

You aren't raising monster by doing fun activities with it. You are clicking buttons in gym to make its stats higher. All the monster care aspects are extremely mechanical.

This was my issue with this game. I liked cyber sleuth and the two rpgs on the DS with the autism of evolving/devolving the same digimon into a bunch of different species. In this game, I hated that there was always a ticking timer in the background that would interrupt the main story and force me to go back to the gym. It also wasn't very fun watching two blobs bounce into each other until the one with higher stats won but at least you could forcefeed your digimon recover items until it defeats Lucifer.
