Some one apparently froze one of the images and brightened it up a bit, and it really makes me curious as to what is going on because from what this image shows  it's Tai who becomes the Digimon Emperor, not one of the 02 kids. bigger version http://i.imgur.com/6uHXsOJ.png

That might just be Ken, honestly. We have literally no idea what the 02 kids look like in this art style, and Ken as the Digimon Emperor had really crazy hair for some reason. If it is Tai though, that could be interesting.

That's not Taichi. The hair is the wrong color. It looks more like a version of the Kaiser where Ken just took gel to his normal hair.

I'm surprised at some Digimon choices seen in the trailer. Mostly, a bunch of recolours that never get to appear. MetalGreymon (Virus) isn't that uncommon, plus it appeared in the first World (as the other MetalGreymon didn't exist yet), but Growmon (Data), BlackMegaloGrowmon and the gold versions of Rapidmon and V-dramon are weird things to see. Not like I'm complaining, it's variety and spotlight for lesser-seen Digimon.

Out of all the questionable 90s design in digimon, with its belts and scrap metal aesthetics, War Greymon manages to be the single strongest design in the entire franchise. For all intents and purposes he's the coolest looking digimon ever, so of course anyone gets hyped seeing him.

Unlike the PS1/early PS2 era, where Digimon experimented with everything and then some, the current Digimon games seem to be trying to establish a clear identity. As such, centering around the first Digimon World, a cult classic and likely the best-known Digimon game in the world, is not a bad move. Even moreso since it is the system that has the most in common with the tamagotchi that gave birth to the franchise to begin with. The Atlus-esque style it has taken, not only in character design (Devil Survivor's artist, hard to miss), but also with a very modern Japan that contrasts the more fantasy-like worlds shown in most Digimon games (normally focused entirely on the Digital World), together with a modern style of the original Digimon World's Digital World, helps giving it its identity too. Cyber Sleuth went down a different path by instead serving as a spiritual sequel to the DS game (even using the same title, Digimon Story), so there was clearly an attempt at going down a different path, only to return to the Digimon World style anyways. About the lack of custom characters, what the current games are trying as well is to establish a game canon, so to speak. Previously, there was only one connection between games (Digimon World's final boss, Analogman, reappearing as the final boss of Digital Card Battle as "A", including the reason why he was there and making it clear he was the same person), ignoring the Wonderswan games which are much more heavily connected to other existing canons (namely, Adventure and Tamers canons). Because of this, it's important for possibly recurring characters to have their own designs, they can't risk having bland, interchangeable designs if they're to reappear. This goes double for Digimon, in which a single character design (the Digimon World protagonist) was recycled in many games, so it would become less obvious that it is him in a returning appearance, were Digimon World not the only important game amongst those (though Digital Card Battle is the best go play it). This is, of course, exactly what happened in next 0rder (with an older design, of course), although it is helped by the fact that he's taken on the name of Analogboy and is repeating what Analogman did, thus making it absolutely clear who he is. Basically I think the Shin Digimon Tensei games are cool as hell and I'm annoyed I'll never get to play any at this rate. I'll have to convince my girlfriend to let me steal her Vita forever.

The best Digimon World was 3, because that's the one I remember playing as a kid. Also, I thought I recognized a remix of something from that game in the trailer.

Probably is nostalgia talking but the reveal of Analogman as the baddie in Digital Card Battle was so drat cool back then. I don't have an issue with Bandai rehashing Digimon World's gameplay, by all its faults it was pretty drat entertaining to raise your own digimon and see File City grow. Another cool feature of the game is the sheer amount of stuff could only be unlocked by doing specific things through the game. I could never get to Bettle Land though

I've been playing Digital Card Battle again because I'm bored and I can assure you, it holds up even now. It isn't quite as creepy as it was for kid me, but it's still a really neat moment.

Great Interview with Cyber Sleuth's producer The important bits quote:With the new Digimon Adventure tri. anime getting quite a lot of attention, do you think it's a good time for Digimon to be making something of a comeback in the West? Do you think that Cyber Sleuth can help the franchise do that? You fuckers better get Cyber Sleuth.

Apparently with Amazon Prime now you can get 20% off physical videogame pre-orders. I am so tempted to pre-order Cyber Sleuth even though I don't have a PS4... I DO have an Amazon gift card left from Christmas........

Why, the PS4 is the current console with the highest consumer base even, the number that proved wrong all those internet articles about console gaming being dead. That said, yeah, it would've been super neat to also get a Steam release. I probably won't ever play Cyber Sleuth, but I appreciate the heck out of it for reinvigorating the franchise and getting the right target audience to do some nice stuff.

PS4 is already nearing 40 million units. Thats a bunch. Would be totally down for a Steam version though. Hopefully more Japanese companies continue to see their competitors succeed on Steam (Bamco).

Oh wow, the PS4 sells far more than I thought it did. I retract part of my complaint. I still think that a Steam release is something Bandai-Namco should really think about if they're going for western sales again.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:It looks so good Yeah, it is. It hammers the point even more that he's the original Digimon World protagonist considering how he talks about the Digital World as something he already knows but has changed in several places. Twiddy posted:Of course it did, were you one of those people who honestly thought console gaming was dead instead of trolling? Not at all, I just didn't know it was that popular. In my defense, I live in a lovely third world country where videogames are insanely expensive. People having game consoles is not the norm at all, and even those who do might wait until later in a system's life to make sure their console was worth the money. I kind of don't have too good of a frame of reference.

Twiddy posted:Well now I kind of feel like an rear end, thanks! Don't. It's my fault for not making proper research before speaking. Also I assure you, you haven't missed a lot. I'll defend Digital Card Battle with every breath of my being, but beyond that, DIgimon games range from "acceptable" to "terrible", never being really great. Rumble Arena on the PS1 is a pretty fun fighter, the original Digimon World is hard to understand and clearly unpolished but honestly fun if you get it. Rumble Arena 2 is okay but worse than its predecessor (it isn't even a sequel, both games were completely unconnected in Japan), the Battle Spirit series is boring, Digimon World 2 and 3, as well as the Savers game are horribly grindy (though if you can get a cheat to get exp fast, 3 is honestly fun), the DS games are okay but also grindy and kind of bland, and Racing and Digimon World 4 are abominations that should have never existed. If you can, though, I fully recommend Digital Card Battle. It has nothing to do with modern games (beyond an actual plot connection with the first Digimon World, itself connected to Re: Digitize and -next 0rder-), but it's a really fun game, and unlike most games it has a connection with the anime (02, to be exact) so you can enjoy that too. It's far more fun than the terrible mess that is the real card game as well, thankfully. And, if you're going for Cyber Sleuth, trying Dawn/Dusk might be a good idea. They're somewhat bland but playable turn-based RPGs, and the gameplay seems to be the same up to the DigiFarms. Of course, Cyber Sleuth looks like it has far more personality and polish too.

Digital Card Battle is the only Digimon game thus far that I consider not-bad (I actually like it a lot). It's pretty disappointing. I really hope Cyber Sleuth turns out good. I have decently high hopes, based on hearsay.

They gave Tales of Zestria a Steam release, so they're clearly interested in testing out that market. I wouldn't be surprised to see Bamco go down that path with later Digimon releases, considering it's less risky to move into online international markets.

Now I'm curious, what is the connection between Re: Digitize and the original Digimon World?
