Hey!! This is a thread to be used for discussing Digimon Story: Time Stranger :wynaut:

Personal rules for this thread are anything that isn't in the demo/pre-release material must be kept in a proper spoiler bar (no in-line spoilers). This includes anything leaked from the demo, so no discussions of the roster outside of what is legitimately available in the demo/pre-release content please!!
 
The Demo was great (though I do hope enemies get a bit more dangerous early on--played on Hard and even the boss was easy--I guess it might have been overcorrection from how crushingly hard the first areas were in Cyber Sleuth on Hard). Love the new Attachment Skill system over the hugely grindy one from Cyber Sleuth.
I picked Demidevimon as my partner--it was a tough decision as I rewatched Adventure a few years ago and fell in love with Gomamon and Patamon, but Demidevimon was such an unexpected choice I felt I had to go with them.
...and it turns out the game is biased against that choice and is the only one you can actually get another copy of in the demo!
 
The demo was FUCKING AMAZING. I'm sorry there's just no other way to describe it. Better graphics than the Cyber Sleuth games (but we already knew this), ENGLISH DUB (but we already knew this), and much more in-depth systems. I'm a little worried they might be too in-depth (in other words convoluted) but I guess that's what guides are for lol (speaking of which I played the demo on Easy because I didn't have a guide and do better with a guide. I will play the full game on Normal)

But obviously I'm biased so play the demo for yourself and decide for yourself on if you think it's good or not.

I hope it does well both review wise and sales wise. Not that this will get Scamco to treat Digimon any different obviously.

I mean if its any consolation we've probably gotten more digimon content in the last 2 months than in the last 3 years

I'm aware of that but Scamco has proven to only care about SAO, their anime games, their fighting games and their anime fighting games and act like and ignore that their actually good games and franchises like Digimon, Klonoa and dot hack don't exist and have been nothing but utter failures. I'd even go as far as to say the Tales of franchise might be a part of this list now as well (Arise was shit. I'm sorry. Just me though obviously)

Digimon also has a tendency to act like its TCG, comics and manga are 'good enough' to keep the franchise alive between anime and game content. It's not. AT ALL.

They also like to act like ports (for example the likely inevitable Time Stranger Switch 2 port) are completely new games. Again... they aren't. AT ALL.

But this is not the point and are different conversations for a different day so I'll drop those... issues... there.
 
For anybody that cares... reviews for the game are out and they are basically higher than both Cyber Sleuth games. You love to see it.
 
i'm only like 10% into the game but I love Aegiomon with all of my heart <33

I mean they don't shut up either so

Unrelated! I think this game's new digimon are really cool designs and I'm likely gonna buy a box of the time stranger tcg set when it releases because of that

I've never been so jealous of other people over a video game. I've been looking forward to this since I beat Cyber Sleuth. So happy to see all the praise it's getting even though I haven't gotten to play it yet, sounds like they've been working their hearts on it for years.

Was really hoping it would make it to Switch 2 and I do think it will eventually, but in the meantime I may have to bite the bullet and try the demo on my computer and see if it works. I actually haven't tried gaming on this thing, but it IS technically a gaming laptop. I haven't heard how it runs on PC though.
 
I think my biggest problem with the game is having to pop in and out of the digifarm to check evolution requirements over and over.

Next up is how annoying it is to get material items.
 
Huh
BlackAgumon is 468, not 467. I'm guessing ukkomon is the extra then because it has a card (and an achievement) but isn't in the game? But then that means the dlc has 16 and not 15 digimon so idk how they'll add it
 
So because I'm bored I've decided to try and max out my team's stats (the max is 9999 + whatever their stats are at level 99 + the bonus from 100% bond).
To do the first two I'm using an exploit to make infinite magnamons which count (at least, for this) as mega level, meaning if I keep loading them into my team I'll get max stats relatively fast. Bond is easy to get so I'm not worried about that.

Honestly assuming I don't get burnt out I might also get maxxed out olympos XII and a couple other digimon :wynaut:
