>it flopped
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Get fricked, Digigays. No wonder you morons have been making so many threads trying to pretend anybody cares about your shitty franchise.

Dumb rivalry. I always liked both.
I liked all three to bad the other 2 or basically dead
This, but I've never played a digimon game. Is Cyber Sleuth good to start on?
Yeah, it is much more of a traditional JRPG which can help you ease in Digimon.
Hard mode is absolute fricking ass though.
normal mode is genuinely brain dead, so I say do hard mode anyway
the hard mode at the very start is so weird. like they didnt test the first few encounters with it on.
Hackers memory is the definitive game, the first game is literally filler and padding the game. Its worse than persona with the VN shit
Theyre both okay games though, especially for the price
Cyber Sleuth is definitely one of the more approachable options. I can't think of one more apt to enjoy the franchise, but tbh there are not that many Digimon games worth fricking with. The Digimon World series is full of quirky entries (most of which are aids), but the monster raising ones are the most fun IMO. I would avoid anything but Digimon World 1, 3, Cyber Sleuth, and Next Order (good luck playing it without a PS4). Quality is a bit uneven across those but I'd say they are all worth trying if you are forgiving and really just like the monsters.
cyber sleuth is horrible don't fall for the shills. It's 1 dungeon and it's all blue and boring. You'll be doing dogshit fetch quests the whole time in this same boring dungeon.
you mean like you do right now you absolute homosexual lmao
>you mean like you do right now you absolute homosexual lmao
Unfortunately for you, I like VNs because I know how to read. Get Baragon'd.
>t.crying b***h tears while pretending to love it
couldn't be a bigger b***h if you tried lmaooooo
If you like shitty anime drama with a bit of gameplay thrown in between scenes, sure.
Cyber Sleuth is easy to get into but an absolutely terrible late-game experience
This is accurate. You start out going "Hey, this game looks pretty nice. As soon as I leave this starting area that's just blue boxes floating in a void and the combat starts getting more complex, I bet it's going to be great." And then neither of those things happen.
Yeah. It's not a masterpiece but gameplay wise it's kind of like raidou expect with combat somewhere in between pokemon and SMT
It's ok, but the DS Digimon World games are a better starting experience tbh. Or you could be a Chad and start with Digimon World 3(2000 for PAL)
Cyber Sleuth is the definition of mediocre. It's not a bad JRPG, but I've started it twice, and both times, I've gotten side tracked by something better.
The only good Digimon game is World 1. Haven't played Survive, though.
Is there actual rivalry between the two at this point? Dedicated Digimon fans seem more like they're just into this franchise because it didn't see as much mainstream success as Pokemon and thus has hipster appeal.
There was never even a formal rivalry to begin with, it was always about "fans" of both throwing shit at each other, mostly from the western side of the world. The sad part is that a lot of people still going at it nowadays have been done it for 2 decades already.
pokemon has only released the same shit game for years and years now since 3 was the last gen. i want pokemon to get better but i know it won't.
exactly. I just want to collect mons and have an adventure
I liked both as a kid. Care little for either of them now but from what I see here, digimon fans seem more well adjusted, they're just happy to get their visual novel, meanwhile most recent pokemon discussion has only been about waifuhomosexualry
You didn't even buy the game.
HAHAHAHA
Yeah but I like the gunpla
Virgin pedo
Based Chad
No milly?
who mentioned a rivalry moron?
aside from YOU?
also, there is no rivalry. there hasnt been a rivalry in like 20 fricking years when we still compared the 2 cartoons at school. pokemon has completely blown past digimon to the point they are absolutely not getting compared by anyone anymore. this is like me offering you a disgusting homemade drink, you hating it, and then me saying "man my dumb rivalry with coca cola is to blame for this"
Both only exist now as fap material as far as i'm concerned.
monster rancher bros ASSEMBLE
Digibro's don't even think about you pokeautists
Digimon is way more kino and quality then Pokemon. Pokemon is for manchildren who can't let go of their childhoods or furgays
>quality
Digimon had like, 2 good games. DW1 and DW2003, everything after DW2003 has been complete trash to mediocre. Everything else about it is better than Pokemon, though.
what is that a go pro
>mfw this image made me want to find my X
So you inadvertedly caused me to realize the shambling state of my life in a way where for the first time in a long time I feel motivated enough to truly wake up.
Then I found my X and realized the batteries were still dead so I couldn't do much with it.
>not liking digimon world ds and dusk/dawn
opinion disregarded
Tried Dawn, gave up after a save file bug 14 hours in. Felt too grindy, didn't care to start over despite the short length of play time, and I say that as a Digimon World 2003 fan.
I don't care if you have nostalgia for it because you played it a lot while mama drove you to soccer practise.
>implying Digigays aren't also full of furgays either
Digimon was baby's first "This monster is just a human woman with giant boobs wearing a furry costume" exposure.
Wait, what was the second? You telling me there are other monsters with huge breasts?
And if so where are they? I have to know. For research purposes.
google lady devimon
enjoy
That's still Digimon
I misinterpreted your post
I mean from other franchises! I've already fapped to the ones from Digimon!
well there's yugioh b***hes

Objectively inferior to Digimon until you show me something that tops Kinkakumon.

I shall grant this bait the title of "premium bait". Excellent work, anon.
Remember anon, if bait is repeated for years on end without anyone actually acknowledging that it's bait and not a real thought, it will inevitably be accepted as a real thought and deemed the "normal".
A good summary Ganker's history
Nah, that's moronic. Truth is Truth, and if someone still takes the bait as truth that just means that person is so lazy it doesn't even care into verify what he reads on the internet.
Oh, right. I guess Yu Gi Oh sort of counts too.
You don't need overwhelming sales to be a good franchise, just a decently sized amount with a good fanbase free of degeneracy and toxicity
Pokemon is one of the worst fanbases on the planet, you know the being that was spawned from it alongside Sonic, Chris Chan
The fanbase is famous for furiously masterbating to the incest from the first series tho
chill bro it's a game of a niche genre. i don't think anyone was expecting it to be a huge success.
compared to other visual novels i think it's actually doing rather well, but a lot of that's probably because it's digimon.

>https://twitter.com/SteamDB/status/1553758647079034885
Was #3 last week.
Seems pretty good for a VN then.
>#4 No Man's Sky
???????
Star Wars The Old Republic is one of the most successful MMOs on the market
No Man's Sky is continuously among the top selling Steam games
Diablo Immortal makes enough money from whales alone to keep all of Blizzard alive
Ganker is powerless
That's just modern game design. There's no reason to spend all the effort to make something good when you can make something simple that empties wallets of the stupid.
They literally teach that in school. Because it works.
That's because No Man's Sky had one of the biggest redemption arcs in vidya's history
i wouldn't even call it a redemption arc, it's just been a perpetual stream of content that is teased at most before launch.
They saw that spouting bullshit before it's done is not a good idea, stopped, and did the opposite. A full course correction more than a redemption
Eh, I would still consider that a redemption arc. It's like if Survive gets an update that fully improves its combat system, it still would be a redemption.
Nah. A redemption for Survive would be a complete rewrite of the dogshit story.
The story is alright, the pacing is the problem. Besides the game needed more routes.
Nah. Characters needing to be moronic for the story to happen is not good. Ryo dying because he can't get over his mommy dying is moronic. It could be done well but having him go "mommy" over and over with the other characters ignoring him makes no sense. Shuuji having daddy/self-esteem issues and causing a dark evolution could've been done A LOT more tastefully than just having him be comically evil; how anyone hates him or feels sorry for Lopmon is beyond me when the entire thing is so comical. Kaito has glimpses of being a decent character along with Minoru but often times they're stuck being a ragetard and actual moron respectively making situations worse by inserting needless drama because the story demands it. It's honestly tiring.
Isn't this decent for a VN? So sequel confirmed?
>Isn't this decent for a VN?
not for one that got delayed to hell for 5 years and had to have the original studio be replaced by a new one that had to completely start developing the game again from square one.
>casually not mentioning it was the second of that week in sales
>switch only
>japan only
game cost 500 yen to make so that's pretty good
it was a huge success and most likely outsold xb3 if you count all the platforms
>franchise is dead since the late 90s
>call the game "survive"
lmao
Not in digimon case, but there are dead franchises that are in a better state despite being dead than modern franchises that were turned into horrible jokes by the western influence
Whatever, I prefer playing with cards that have badass monsters than play with cartoony shit monsters or trying-to-be-so-cool-to-the-point-it's-cringe monsters.
Yugioh has become no different than pokemon though, not to mention it was cursed from the start by 4kids censorship
At least the monsters were still awesome though.
So does Pokemon, so what's your point exactly?
Iirc they made sure to make that shitty new style a new game that doesn't mix with the classic lane of Yugioh shows.
The new Digimon TCG shits all over YGO but good luck getting the predominantly bigger based YGO playerbase to give it a try.
Magic The Gathering shits all over every TCG game combined.
Pokemon TCG shits every single TCG you can possibly imagine.
man that card did something to me when I was a boy
Has anyone ever met a pokemon tcg player? Like I see loads of children and manchildren buying that stuff, but absolutely nobody playing it, and I've seen Black folk play some of the most obscure shit you can imagine.
My LGS hosts Pokemon games, and its very popular with Asian Incels and Weebgays along with Final Fantasy TCG, Yu Gay Oh, and Digiman shit. But real men (probably autistic) play Magic the mother fricking Gathering.
This card is op af senpai.

Oh no, some shitty Secret Lair alternate art prints made exclusively to drain dumb whales has some shitty gay art, surely this ruins the game.
AHAHAH DIGITROONS OMG WHEN WILL THEY FINALLY LEARN THEIR PLACE
Lands alone kill this game and prove you'd have to grow up with it to cope with just how blatantly bad they are implemented in the game.
Plus its filled with troony gay shit now too.
Stockholm Syndrome doesn't make a game good, anon.
Man, that's some ugly child.
>no digital version available
Of course no one's playing that Digimon TCG.
I am a yugioh chad
Also love Digimon TCG
Don't know why I have to choose one or the other, I can play 2 TCG's
TCGs are like MMOs. The investment in both are immense, so people stick only to one.
I'm a case example. I fricking loathe yugioh competitively and yet it's the only card game I can play.
sounds like you're autistic. If you're not having fun, stop playing. Or at least stop playing competitively. I exclusively use pet decks and I have a ton of fun
That doesn't mean much, Yugioh has been garbage for almost a decade now.
Nah, links are what killed it.
YGO is literally the worst TCG in the market right, just an absolute trash heap of a game.
yugioh is kiddie shit since xexal
It was a shitty VN without porn, charismatic characters and tedious
So like robot taisen. I will buy it then.
I am a Pokemon homosexual 100%
I lo0ve Digimon from childhood and I am still waiting for a great Digimon game. There have been a few good ones, but nothing truly great. The closest to me are World PSX and the Rumble games, but neither of those exactly capture what I want a Digimon game to be.
They made an Adventure game for PSP around 2013 that was great but I don't exactly want a retelling of the original story, either.
I know Digimon has a sweet spot somewhere, and they've gotten close a few times. The commercials for the new toys and cards surprisingly have a lot of soul. I know there are people who love Digimon and want to see it succeed. They just gotta find some sort of sweet spot.
Frick all of digimon and all digigays, nexomon, neopets, yugioh, sonic, whateverthefrick has to do with battling and collecting monsters. Pokemon is number one. Frick you.

Tendie pedo enjoying his troony game, i see

You're right, Pokemon is the number one on the list of shitty cashgrab franchises that milk their moronic fans.
Wrong. SMT is the quality peak of the monster collecting franchises.
According to what and who exactly?
It's a shitty (mostly) linear VN. Battles feel like an after-thought just stuffed in wherever. Really disappointing.
Those Digimon designs actually look good I'll give them that, especially the dog.
I didn't understand the rivalry in the 90s and I still don't understand it now. I personally like both franchises.
Pokeautists with their persecution complex refusing to accept the fact that Digimon came first and has always been doing its own thing.
>start off as a spinoff tamagotchi
>never once make a game that even comes close to the same genre as Pokemon
>still manage to live rent-free in pokeautist heads
All those years of Pokemon parodies giving the creatures Digimon-esque names really mindbroke you fricks I see
>expecting any other result but complete and abject failure from digimon
>in the post-2000 years
Meh, there's only one Digimon game that matters that is still more immersive than any pokemon game to date.
God, I wish they would just fricking make Digimon World games that play like this one. They made a couple in the last decade but they were half-assed and I don't think either sold well. I would have played the PS4 one but I'd need a PS4 and I don't want to buy one. Those fricks didn't port the english translation to the Vita (which basically exists, but you have to hack a Chinese port to get it). But even though there was some interesting stuff they added like city customization and being able to have 2 digimon with you so you're not stuck in the cycle of training your digimon for 3 whole weeks so you can have it battle for a couple of days before it has a heart attack, it's still not very polished.
Bandai seems to just release a mediocre or misguided Digimon game, then they got "Hm, well, guess no one likes Digimon then" when it doesn't do well and then they wait 5 years before taking another crack at it. It sucks. I just want a monster game that isn't basically just a JRPG.
If you're itching to play Digimon World again, Redigitize on 3DS is pretty good. I went back to play it after giving up 'playing' Digimon Survive and I really had a blast.
Now if only they remade it on Switch...
Sad how they are never going to make a game this good again
>Digimon shits on the ground once
>Turns into Digimon that likes eating shit as a result
Good times.
It's a reference to the Pokemon fanbase.
I.. highly doubt that.

Stop falseflagging already you moron. No one cares about this dumb war anymore. I can tell what color your skin is.
Everywhere I keep reading says it's like 70/30 more a VN than an SRPG. Originally, it was called an SRPG. Then as time went on they said there would be VN elements. Then it became a SRPG/VN hybrid. Now apparently it's mostly a VN with minor SRPG elements? Yeah, I'm pretty pissed about that; I would've been fine with a 50/50 split, but the main original point of the game was to be a SRPG, so switching this around has people understandably upset, but journos are defending it for some reason say people are "mad a VN is playing like a VN" when that's not what it was originally at all. Total bait and switch.dpkj42
What makes pokehomosexuals like you moronic?
Why are tendies so childish and spiteful? I feel like their parents need to smack them in the mouth.
Digimon has always been discount Pokemon
I'm honestly surprised the franchise survived this long
The designs are better
And they can never go woke thanks to all the big breasts, digi-chads are safe
Why so much hate? Did Digimon do something to you?
Bandai Namco did everything in their power to make it fail
At this point I wonder if they just hate the Digimon franchise
I guess this game won't survive.
god dammit camembert
Digimon was one of my favorite things when I was a kid but I never got into the games. Tell me about this one.
>Tell me about this one.
Visual novel with a few SRPG battles.
don't bother. They should have just made an anime out of it. It's not good by any means and the gameplay is beyond horrible just like the "game" animations. Plots sucks ass too
The average Ganker user hates it, so you know it's extremely good.
I would buy it right now if it had gracenovamon and bancholilymon.
Pokemon fanboys need to take their heads out of their asses. Even Smashgays are more tolerable when it comes to shit like this; they'll happily try out other platform fighters when they come out, but the average Pokegay is so self conscious about their series (they know it's a mixed bag), that they refuse to try literally any other monster collecting game. Pokemon has barely changed at all in 20 years, and yet, they still refuse to even experiment with other games with similar formulas that still offer unique experiences. The idea that any of them would want to play Digimon is laughable; they don't even play other Pokemon games that dare go against the traditional formula. There was a huge pushback against PLA on both /vp/ and leddit when the game first game out, and I don't see any of these people talking about Colosseum and Gale of Darkness. Don't waste your time with pokemon fans.
Pokegays barely play their spin-offs, let alone other monster franchises.
Cyber Sleuth just recently got a BanchoLillymon mod.
but I've already played cyber sleuth twice.
I, like most people, completely forgot this series existed
>mediocre vn nobody in the fanbase asked for or wanted flopped
oh no! anyway, new cyber bawds when?
proof it flopped? I pirated it since it had no copy protection
lmao did you subhuman troons really report the image? God digitrannies deserve every shit they get.
No, you were just such a homosexual even jannies could tell
>t.seething virgin
enjoy your flop. I'll seed it for everyone out of spite now.
You should've seeded it anyways you idiot, it's proper torrent etiquette. Go seed it right now.
Should have made a digimon world
So Digimon has died, can I pray for a monster rancher revival?
finally someone with taste. God I hope digitroons kill themselves and they bring back an actually good franchise like monster rancher
It will be as a VN and you will cry b***h tears while pretending you love it.
>monster rancher revival
Well, there is a new game to be released
Wait what? Since when?
Were you living under a rock or something?
>those ugly ass kaiju replace classic MR monsters

That's what you get for liking a dead franchise instead of staying a pokechad
Stay malding pokesoi.
>Ultraman kaijus
>ugly ass
Objectively shit taste
sorry I didn't grow up in japan during the 60s
only nostalgia could make those look good
I'll never get people that like Monster Rancher's designs. Literally every other monster collecting game has way better designs than "weird eyeball slug". I remember someone in a thread a few days ago shitting on Agumon as the Digimon mascot but MR's is beyond terrible
ill fricking kill you Black person for shittin on suezo, this is a jail worth offence
>not liking Ultraman Kaijus
>Not liking Kaijus
This has gotta be the money game to fund a new mainline Monster Rancher
No that's what the mobile game is.
>There are people who exist on this planet who dislike Ultraman kaiju.
I am in disbelief.
As soon as they revealed it was going to be a VN, it was DOA.
so it sold less than 50k world wide? God digimon is such a dogshit franchise. I don't even know why bamco still bothers milking you morons
>it sold less than 50k world wide?
it sold 28k physical switch copies in japan only in 3 days. this is the number people are throwing around as proof that it flopped.
holy shit only 28k in japan? Well then it's dead for sure. If digimon can't sell well in japan than it won't sell at all in the west
>couldn't even outsell the PS5 in japan
yep digimon is dead
only played it for 30 mins or so, but so far it's different from what i was expecting.. i was expecting some straight to the point with some nice battles and rpg elements, but so far i only had literally 1 battle and the rest was wordswordswordswordshighschooldramawordswordswords
i hope it gets better, but i haven't had the patience to keep playing for longer in the last couple days
honestly the moment they started with another camping trip I just refunded and pirated it. They are so creatively bankrupt it's unbelievable. At least pokemon makes actual games unlike whatever this boring garbage is. Kinda glad digimon keeps flopping in all buisness models. Maybe they will just let it finally die
>At least pokemon makes actual games
now this is some bullshit
yeah totally lol only the biggest franchise on the whole earth but whatever. Meanwhile digimon can't shit out a single good game in over 2 dacades drifting farther into obscurity by the year. Nobody even know what the frick a digimon even is anymore
What improvements would you like to see in Survive 2? I for one would like to see more branching paths, instead of stuff like moral, wrathful, and harmony routes I'd like to see forks every time your digimon evolved so you could do stuff like pure moral routes or moral/wrathful/moral routes. The format has potential.
main character becoming the villain if go the evil route
Evolution slabs should be more easily available
I'd like to see exploration mechanics fleshed out a bit more to make the VN "gameplay" more interesting
And of course a larger roster of playable Digimon but that's just a normal expectation for a sequel
They're fricking everywhere in the later game
just drop the gameplay altogether, put the total of 5 interns to work on story branches instead of the shitty srpg that everyone auto battles
Flesh out the SRPG part of it more, increase the roster and more branching paths. MC/Player gets to decide who he kills if there's an evil route.
I'm not very far in Survive, does Agumon's personality change to reflect the route that you're on?
I think it would be cool if they released a book version for homosexuals and a game version wity gameplay and proper cutscenes for cool people
CHOMP
It's over. There will never be another digimon game after this disaster.
I unironically can't name 3 digimon and 2 of them are agumon and greymon. Thats all. Thats how dead the franchise is and I used to love it.
wait did digimon sell only on switch or something in japan? It can't be this fricking dead of a franchise right?
Are you moronic? This is a doompost thread where the only sales data shown is physical copies, Switch only, Japan only. It's an excuse for Pokegays to sperg out and try to not be the laughingstock for once.
you sound mad didn't even read your spergies to the end. I just take it as a yes. Welp dead game and dead franchise. Actually considered buying it. Guess I dodged a bullet
I mean the rule is never buy a digi game at launch. they're so insecure they constantly want to change things up, and even when they GOT a decent formula in cyberbawds or hackers, they go abandon it for some shitty vn spinoff with shitty devil survive ripped gameplay but worse, wasting 5 years for 28k in japan LOLLLL
this is where pokemon was smart. recreate the same successful formula for years and then only now 20 years later start changing the gameplay up for mainline games. they got their money stocked up. if things go bad just go back to the winning formula. I say this as fan of both, despite pokemon being the garbage that it was before arceus, at least you had a new game to try out every year or two. unlike digimon fricking 5 years for a VN and nothing else to play besides going backwards in time every fricking game.
tl:dr
just like boring vns haha. Grow up loser
Playstation owners don't buy third party games.

No
Reconsider your life choices
What's wrong with DW4? I plan to pick it up at some point. Looks like Gauntlet but with Digimon characters and that seems pretty fun.
the gameplay is extremely slow and clunky with some really bad 3D platforming
the game is generally easy and fighting to gather experience feels pointless for most of the game until you hit the final boss at which point you suddenly need to grind for hours to beat him
the way evolutions work is awful and requires more grinding
story is non-existent
forced boat sections that are like the normal gameplay except its now an auto-scroller and forces you to use ranged weapons
not digimon with ranged attacks, but weapons which you have to collect and equip because this is barely a digimon game
World 4 did everything wrong
This is honestly not a far-fetched idea, because Bandai has made some weird-ass decisions about Digimon and completely misread the territory. I consider DW4 to be a shit game and probably not one most Digimon fans would care for. Is it actually fun?
They need a World 2 port that speeds up the animations
>incendiary OP
>smug, dismissive reply
Now that we have the formalities out of the way I must say that I appreciate their willingness to experiment. Most RPG series in general wouldn't be willing to embrace two new subgenres all at once.
This is like if gamefreak made a pokemon game like Knights in the Nightmare.
>embrace two new subgenres all at once
Only the VN part of Survive is new for Digimon. There was a Digimon SRPG on the Wonderswan.
>2
Have you seen the mess that the World games are? Sure, experimenting can lead to great things and keeps the franchise fresh but at the same time too much experimenting and not having a clear path of consistency is a bad indicator.
I just looked it up, and it looks like a mobile game. This shit is seriously 60 dollars???
>>it flopped
Source?
(No, physical-only numbers after 3 days on sale in a single country don't tell the whole story)
It's literally not a flop. The sales are good for a vn. Danganronpa 1 sold 25k in its first week and went on to sell more than a million copy in the end.
We have yet to see how well it sold outside of Japan which is definitely very well considering the steam numbers and the fact that South America loves Digimon.
>All this cope
Over half of cyber sleuth sales were worldwide especially south America.
Survive is already a success with 28k in one week on switch only in Japan and its gonna get more world wide wise.
He's right no need to be salty about it.
I bought digital myself so I never have to take it out of the system and I love it! It's like the spooky mystery sections of Cyber Sleuth, but so much better! I honestly love the game. I still prefer the Story games but I would totally buy a sequel of this!

It did? My computer isn't fixed until the end of this month so I will only be able to buy this by the 23th of August.
Unrelated, but where can I get a v-pet for under 20 bucks
I don't know if you can, right now. Those are becoming more expensive over time.
Damm. Also just looked it up and noticed that despite there being literal thousands of normal tamagotchi bootlegs, there isn´t a single vpet bootleg......
any v-pet or is there a specific one you want? digimon v-pets are getting english releases now and you can get those off amazon for $20.
the 20th amnyversary one would do, cuz blitzgreymon
version 20ths are cheap as hell on amazon. there are tons of colors and they sell for as cheap as $13 if you don't mind getting a shitty color nobody wanted.
I'm not 100% on the exchange rate but classic v-pets are about half that on amazon
>amazon of my country asks 25-30 bucks fo a v-pet
>wait, maybe if use amazon dot com instead.....
>now its 14
>YEA-
>but the send fee its 10 fricking bucks so its the same
Frick
Wait a minute. These 2 are for 12. Even with the send fee, it would be cheaper than the ones in my country..........Piss or CS Source Not installed? piss aparently comes with lunamon while purple comes with coronamon
You will never be able to unlock the Lunamon or Coronamon eggs, so just pick the color you want. You only unlock the Lunamon and Coronamon eggs by battling 5 different ver. 20ths. So unless you know 5 people with Ver. 20ths it is impossible to unlock those eggs.
Oh......well thanks for the tip. I think I choose piss then
>+5 bucks in extra taxes
oh frick off
just get it anon
I will just get a different one from my country´s amazon at this point......
Someone developed an arduino kit that let you do battles online. I think I did that on my 20th to unlock some digimon. I think it would be cheaper than buying 5 20ths, but idk if the community is still active.
>I think it would be cheaper than buying 5 20ths
You can actually unlock it by only buying a second 20th. It doesn't have to be 5 separate ver. 20ths, but 5 different names. So if you reset the second 20th ,name it "AAA", battle the one you want to unlock the egg on, reset the second one again, name it "BBB", then do this 5 time with 5 different names you can unlock the egg. It's a pain in the ass though, and you won't be able to unlock the special egg on the device you keep resetting.
Oh, right. I think the battles thing I did was to get a certain evolution.
For years cyber sleuth gave me no interest because it was just diet no caffeine SMT
I was right
However that is still good enough to make me play it nonstop because collecting digimon is addicting
It definitely scratched the fusion autism I have. Crafting that perfect Digimon almost gives me the same feeling.
>cyber sleuth gave me no interest because it was just diet no caffeine
Interesting choice of words
>man this digimon i'm raising sucks i want to replace it with that one
>spend hours devolving and evolving it until it gets to the correct evo path instead of just putting it on the farm and converting a digimon already on that path
Update this is such a fricking shit game what's with all the backtracking
>Sells 1 million
>Discord homosexuals go bananas
I will never get over this cringe ass homosexual logo redesign, ever
I will but the next Ace Combat (assuming it exists) but I WILL remove that homosexual logo from the label with scissors
>I will never get over this cringe ass homosexual logo redesign, ever
Yeah, it's peak soulless
The new logo is terrible, but the old one was ugly as frick too.
I just bought Cyber bawd on switch, was it wrong?
Nah Cyberbawd is alright
SYAKOMON NO DON'T DO IT
We were wrong. It wasn't Angewomon we had to worry about. It was Syakomon the whole time.

Why do some pokegays have a weird aversion towards any monster collecting franchise that's not pokémon? I've seen even the type of pokegays who shat on Sword & Shield relentlesly back in the day yet for some reason still felt the need to to shit on that one Monster Hunter game
who the frick asked for a story driven visual novel with a cast full of human characters
I just wanted to adventure with my partner mon on unexplored lands filled with fantastical and weird tech/nature hybridity and meet cool monsters with whacky personalities
>who the frick asked for a story driven visual novel with a cast full of human characters
Me.
They wanted to bring the animegays probably, the game was clearly aimed at then.
Me. I would've loved it if the writing wasn't fricking dogshit. Half the cast are digimon anyway, and most of them are actually based.
Just remake Digimon world 1
They won't do the remake justice
You already got two remakes, bro, three if you include the remake of the remake on the 3DS.
>You already got two remakes, bro
No we didn't
You won't get what you want. The days of pre-rendered CG backgrounds are gone and never coming back.
Just what we need, a soulless simplified downgrade of World 1!
Monkey's paw
>Habu wants to
>But change parts of the game
What makes Pokegays let us live rent-free in their heads?
Not complaining, just curious.
they are getting low effort garbage designed to milk ever last drop. so they are out for blood against any monster collecting game to cope with it.
Feels good
Yeah honestly, for fans of the most popular franchise in the world they are sure insecure as frick.
Sounds to me like people are onto something when people bring the current state of the series and how defensive they get over their newer games.
How can a post pack so much cope? Amazing, befuddling even.
Is not wrong though.
what is he even coping with. you morons have destroyed the meaning of that word.
Well, as expected, coping always leads to seething. Nature follows its course.
reddit
>coping always leads to seething
Uh, no? You cope with things to avoid seething about them.
Most pokemon fans are legit autistic. Unlike fans of say, RPGs in general who play and enjoy multiple games in the the genre, pokemon fans will attack other monster collecting games because they see them as a threat. They refuse to play anything other than pokemon.
Oh yeah I saw this game on Steam, didn't even know it was a thing? How is it? Is it turn based with VN elements?
no, it's a visual novel with srpg battles sprinkled throughout.
gameplay is boring/easy, story is boring/moronic, and the translation is unfaithful
Miu is so cute
Bros
For me it's Arukenimon
Sad that she gets CLOWNED
At least she has a lot of highlights as a villain here, she entertaining in 02 too.
Jokes on you I want this to fail too
I don't want VN crap I just want to breed digimon
>I just want to breed digimon
You mean that in the raising sense, right?
Right?
Haha, yeah.
Raising.
digimon do not wear clothes anon, if you remove the clothing shell it's just matrix lines of green code
>he doesn't know about kemonogami
oh no no no digisisters...
What's the deal with Digimon Survive's Digimon? Is this just a world where they're not digital and are just real monsters? Does the game with them inspiring or creating the Digimon somehow?
bump
That thing where digimon are born from man-made programs in some computer world hasn't been a thing since Tamers. Pretty sure the Digital World is usually just a parallel world made of data that by coincidence can interact with electronic devices from our world. So that seems consistent with what Survive does. The only difference is that the barrier between the worlds is thinner near that village so people there discovered digimon hundreds of years before computers even existed, so they ended up making legends around them.
>That thing where digimon are born from man-made programs in some computer world hasn't been a thing since Tamers
Ghost Game lore is exactly that.
No, it's not. The digital world in Ghost Game is also a parallel dimension that has always existed. The holograms are just a way for digimon to cross over.
Literally in the first episodes (3? 4?) Angoramon infodump you about that.
yes to your spoiler
I want a proper game, not a vn.
Digimon was my sexual awakening...
How did he replace his clothes?
False. There's a few examples of it happening.
that's when you found out you were a homosexual pedophile?
Homosexual?
I was the same age as the characters at the time
Settle down, Kari.
Dont care poketroony
>The ranamon anon is gone
Oh no
Fapping to digimon is objectively superior to fapping to pokemon even if you pick one at random.
Really?
Let's see.

>Rolled on pokemon, got celebi.
I am beginning to think that with Digimon, the balance between "monsters" that are basically just women with huge breasts and absolute horrors balance each other out enough to that they are both equally bad options.

Who even asked for this game lmao. Wonder how much they dumped into this game.
>Wonder how much they dumped into this game.
It's a VN, moron, so not much
Given the fact they had to restart the damn thing's development and it was supposed to come out in 2019 they probably ended up wasting more than they wanted though.
Knowing Bandai it probably wasnt much, plus the game is doing well on steam so no reason to worry
>Who even asked for this game lmao
a lot of people, actually
I think those people were asking for a tactical RPG with a good story and good polish.
Good thing they got that
This thread is riddled with people saying that the tactical RPG component is extremely sparse and half-assed. Who are you kidding?
I'm playing it and I kinda got what I wanted.
I can't image it did. It doesn't seem like a high budget game
It wasn't, it literally began as a low budget side-project, made by some small but team and went through many delays, but just that, the scope of the game never really changed as much.
Yeah, it sold well by VN numbers plus it was at full price, unlike the majority of VNs.
I heard steam JP sold like 36k, is it true?
That would be bizarre since the PC version doesn't have japanese language.
Someone made a mod for it already, but still.
Shuuji > Minoru
One is a hypocrite and the other isn't.
Shuuji deserved what he got
What an irredeemable piece of shit
And?
Why so mean spirited, OP?
it's one autist who has been doing this since the game's release
He's been waffling wildly, can't seem to decide if his boogeyman is hispanics or trannies.

Damn, what a flop huh?
It's over, digibros.
Pack it up and go home, our series is dead forever. No more content ever. Give up. We're finished.
You'll never win.
I'm off to preorder Pokemon Violet. Then I'll play some Umineko later. Then maybe some FF Tactics.
Yeah, I'll do that.
Damn, we're truly finished.
It's over, digibros.
It was so simple, just remake digimon world 2003 with new digimon and enhanced battle system. Just remake digital card battle with new cards and modern digimon.
>Remake it
>"Yooo this sucks ass homie back to FIFA fr fr"
Every time.
Zoomers have no taste. They bounce around like excited baboons when the word "Remake" is uttered and then say it's shit because they were never onto the series to begin with.
DW3 sucked, why does it have so many fans on Ganker?
>backtracking all day every day
>combat is super boring 1v1 turn based
>card game is ok I guess
Honestly, I would have preferred DW2 if it wasn't so goddamn slow. I definitely do now that we have emulators that can speed things up.
People like it for the atmosphere and because it had pretty graphics, but yeah, the gameplay was quite flawed. But a remake could fix that, though.
When was the last time a remake improved the gameplay of the original?
Stranger of Paradise
Etrian odyssey untold 1 and 2
Fair enough.
Everything made by Tengo Project. Not saying that there should be a DW3 remake. I honestly don't think that the story is good enough to warrant a remake instead of just making something completely new. Just that it's not impossible for a remake to be better than the original. Especially when, like DW3, you have nowhere to go but up.
>and because it had pretty graphics
And that was only the 2D graphics, the 3D sucked and was completely inferior to World 2
probably my nolstagia when I was a kid and could afford to spend the entire summer grinding for Omnimon. DW3 is flawed when you look at it now but it definitely has soul.
Shortstack fox Digimon with big tiddies. All arguments are now invalid.
But that's an Appmon, anon.
Still a Digimon.
No, they're dead, Bandai killed that reboot. If they were digimon one of them would be in something, like a V-pet or Dim.
Nah, they are their own thing
>Gives you the 8lue Card and fricks off
Ngl, I got used to that chunk of backtracking, and it even makes me chuckle. It's far tamer compared to the later parts of the game where you have to move across the sectors before getting the DigiEggs.
I remember I've grinded my guilmon to 40 before ever finding the egg for submarimon.
Not having internet access was a thing.
Imagine not having internet and being ESL with the game not being translated to your language. I basically just fricked around for months until I lucked out and found a way to progress. Even replaying the game as an adult there's some obscure ass triggers you need to hit in order to get certain things to happen and certain dialogues to trigger, you often just have to talk to every NPC and hope for the best.
I only ever cared about Rumble Arena
I was one of the few people who was actually excited for this, even if my expectations grew pretty low over the years. It's just not that good of a game.
>"what do you expect it's a VN"
Ok, I've played and enjoyed plenty of VNs before but the VN part of this game just isn't very good either. None of the characters are interesting, most of them are annoying and/or pretty dumb and the story itself is pretty uninspired while at the same time taking way too long to get to anything remotely interesting. The story can be summed up as "Digimon Adventure but what if the kids could actually die and the ending is something out of an SMT game?", and I mean that in the most literal way possible, considering how much of the plot's events are lifted almost directly from Adventure.
>The story can be summed up as "Digimon Adventure but what if the kids could actually die
Theyve been saying that for years. So they delivered.
>None of the characters are interesting
>Ryo
>Shuuji
>mommy Aoi
>not interesting
I thought they were fun. Kaito was also a bro and Saki was likeable. Only Takuma, Minoru, and Miu were boring shit.
Takuma at least has the excuse of being the designated self-insert.
The VN would have been way better if it didn't put fake gameplay every couple of minutes forcing me to get up and scan the screen for flavor text and then move on. I would enjoy it way more if I could just leave it on auto and just consume the dialog while drinking coffee.
Still did better than Xenoflop 🙂
DigiBlack folk have pokechads living rent free in their heads, can't go 2 minutes without seething over pokemon
Poke trannies have been spamming Digimon hate on this board for days, you lying tendie pedo
It has been long established that digimon fans don’t care about this made up rivalry.
Yeah, only murricans had that rivalry going on. In other countries you could watch and/or play Pokemon and Digimon games with no problem.
If any the rivalry feels purely artificial.
When I was 10 I threw away all my Pokemon toys when that hit our school but that was 2 decades ago lol. I got back into it in 2010 but Pokemon lost its magic for me after Gen 5 and I quit when Sun and Moon came out. I can't believe how much worse it looks.
>i want the cool monsters to turn into cosplay humans
Garbage. Its just not appealing unless you're a fapbrained Black person.
So let me get this straight, on NG+ you retain basically everything and are able to evolve straight to mega from the first real combat sequence and onwards? Despite the story pacing staying the same? Also I hear the enemies don’t scale?? What the frick kind of rationale went into this? I want to play through with everyone surviving, but not go through a disengaging pants-on-head moronic NG+ like that.
It's because the gameplay is just tacked on to serve the visual novel. It sucks because it's really fun and has potential. We'll never get it, but a sequel that refines the formula and is more of a 50:50 VN/SRPG split would godlike.
I would’ve been satisfied with NG+ scaling up all enemies across the story and simply unlocking the ability to save everyone. Seems like they unnecessarily fricked the NG+.
>We'll never get it
Is this confirmed? I see a lot of people saying this.
It’s just very likely the case given how the whole ordeal has gone down. From development to release to quality. So much potential, and I’m sure many want a sequel because of that, but the suits won’t deal with this title again after all this.
Wait so what about all those threads claiming the game sold a million copies?
Probably one shitposter and a bunch of morons repeating it.
first day on Ganker?
The problem is that TRPG gameplay is fricking rubbish, and characters are incredibly unlikable.
So yeah, there's not much of anything to like about the game.
>pokemon = best games
>digimon (01&02) = best show
>yugioh = best TCG
this shouldn't be so hard for people to understand. I like all 3.
>02
>best show
Sex with Effecmon
physical japanese switch sales are literally meaningless
Why can't they just give us Pokemon with Tamagotchi elements? Every digimon game is a barebones rpg and now a VN, nothing most people give a shit about. Digimon world on ps1 was the only Digimon game that was actually interesting.
I don't want Pokemon.
I don't care what you want.
I don't care what you want either.

Frick I forgot the picture
People like this are the equivalent of Gen oners in Pokemon
Survive isn't even a main title game, it was always a side project. The actual good game is still probably in development.
I think the sales were fine for what kinda game they were aiming for, probably had a shoestring budget in the first place.
I've never played Digimon in my entire 38 years short life, and I thought I'd start with this one because I heard it was gong to be more
>serious
Why are people hating it?
Because it's mostly a visual novel
Oh God. Is it like Monark where you have an hour dialogue followed by a single fight which is over in 3 turns?
Yes
That's all I need to know. Thank you.
Play World 1, avoid the PAL version.
But is it fun?
Realistically a vn doesnt need to sell that many copies to be successful, i imagine anything more than 100k is a success for them, srw makes around 500-700k on average and its considered a success. Having said that, this is a game that was in dev hell for what 5 or 6 years now, started from scratch multiple times and changed a whole team. Im sure that kind of shit starts bleeding money very fast
also im not convinced this was supposed to be vn from the start, but they had to salvage it somehow
It was absolutely a VN fron the start
Maybe digimon should copy arceus. I think MAYBE a better digimon game would be that. Big open world to explore, digimon to run into and fight and data to collect to create the ones you want.
Of course WITH the v-pet elements
Frick OP, post your guy
wait, so it's just a vn? I thought it was supposed to be an srpg
It's both
ah okay
I may give it a shot in the future anyway
still need to play world and cybersleuth
A vn with some srpg battles.
It's like the Utawarerumono games, mostly VN with a couple of SRPG segments here and there.
If a digimon you recruited from free battle dies is it gone forever or does it come back when the battle ends?
>does it come back when the battle ends?
yes. there is no permadeath for recruitable digimon.
I was hyped
then realized it was a glorified VN with mobile style combat
I don't know why they choose to shite up every digimon release, I guess make them as cheap as possible
>was interested in the game
>didn't look at any prerelease content, was under the impression it was a JRPG
>see non-spoiler reviews when the embargo lifts
>It's a VN
Unironically preorder cancelled.
nice made up story, bro.
>was interested in the game
>didn't look at any prerelease content, was under the impression it was a JRPG
>see non-spoiler reviews when the embargo lifts
>It's a VN
Unironically preordered
so does it do digimon but utawarerumono well? I read through the thread and it sounds like the characters are hit or miss and the plot is predictable but is it at least engaging if I like the structure and I like digimon?
the pacing is very uneven
one moment i feel engaged enough to want to keep playing and learn more about what's going on, then the next i'm wanting to just stop entirely because i'm having to do some bullshit like chase around some little shits in an amusement park or walking through the same hallways like 5 times
that sucks, Ive had that with some games and you can barely enjoy when something cool does happen because you're already annoyed and you feel like you're only playing out of spite
yea, i haven't played utawa yet but from what i understand there's a lot more weight to the fights narrative-wise
here there's a lot of little filler fights that just feel kinda inconsequential, which doesn't help when the actual gameplay part of the game is kinda half-baked
Since the budget feels like it's $300 I doubt they need to sell a bunch to break even, nor do I care about sales that's their problem.
Who is best character and why is it Aoi? Is she the only person in the entire Survive cast that isn't a literal cardboard cutout?
All of them are cardboard characters in their own way.
Yeah but unlike everyone else she experiences growth throughout the story and there is SOME nuance in her characterization. I can't speak for Ryo in True but everyone else is stagnant, they remain their character archetypes from beginning to end.
Not a digigay, but the combat is surprisingly mid. Everything else is super charming though.
Yeah, it is something else, but I don't know it it is worth the full price.
Why must Digimon do this Visual Novel bullshit? I just want an open world RPG digimon game where you tame mons and work to the overarching bad guys and the big bad guys
Survive was meant to be a side project in-between major digimon games, not a main thing, then the delays thing
>not a main thing, then the delays thing
How much Covid was at fault here? I have heard that excuse, but considering how other games were finished at that time I'm not sure.
I'd say a decent amount. You have to understand different companies work in much different ways, Capcom's A-Team working on a game in covid isn't going to be bogged down the same way as Bandai's D-Team that's already getting little to no funding
The next Story game seems to be like that.

You're lying. Bamco doesn't spend a dime advertising Digimon.
