>>58329795It's #1 on steam - that's right, it beat Counter-Strike. Fucking counter-strike, the game that consistently holds #1 on steam.
>>58329805I played the Demo. Genuinely better than any other Digimon OR any Pokemon game ever.
>>58329884>I HATE TEAMS OF THREE!Then use a single mon in on your team. Time Stranger gives you that freedom. You'll probably get crushed in battle due to turn order but hey, that's your choice.
>I HATE GRINDING ALL DAY FOR A SINGLE PLAYER RPG.Good news, in Time Stranger you can turn any extra Digimon you convert into free EXP for any of your other Digimon. There are also items in the game that multiply EXP gains. You only have to grind if you want to have all the Digimon in your storage at once.
>How hard is it for them to make a game about your bond with your individual monster?Very, because it can only have a finite amount of responses, but Time Stranger does this the best any monster taming game ever has with species affecting how a Digimon interacts with you, but their Personality also influences their passive bonus.
>That's the core of Digimon. You and your singular partner. That's only in the Anime, and if you want that then Survive is what you want to play. Also, later seasons have multiple partners (Xros Wars, Appmon).
>Learning about friendship and growing and shit.Someone has only ever seen Adventure.
>Hell, maybe even have certain Digimon help you/join your JRPG party depending upon your choices.Time Stranger has this. They're called Guest Digimon.
>and not just as accessories for generic oversexualized minor #3The games are not, and should not, be ADVENTUREEEEE.
>>58329957World games are just glorified vpets, get one of those if you want that so bad. The Story games have actual stories to them.
>>58330534Survive was a dogshit game, a baby's first TRPG with a boring edgelord story (that 4chan would like because they're all eternally 14 years old and think edgy = good). I beat it once and was done with it.
