Digimon Survive

It starts slow and meh... But damn it is got what people want from Digimon games of old. World feels familiar yet odd at same time. Its not too friendly and oddly the kid behavior is realistic even if you say Ohh they stupid. Well yea they kids put in stressful world where adults would be confused as well. Music is Awesome Story is decent Art is Great I recommend the game. It wont blow your mind but its fun to play for story alone

Esse não é bem um jogo. Se você está chegando aqui seduzido pelas batalhas de Tactics, já pode mudar de ideia. É um visual novel. Você fica apertando X e passando a história, apenas. Em alguns momentos, ele diz que você tem que "descobrir" com quem falar. Aí você pode apertar um botão para alternar entre os personagens, e o que você tiver que falar estará marcado de vermelho. É simples assim. A descrição da loja o coloca como um "híbrido de romance visual e RPG tático". Eu, amante dos jogos de Digimon, Pokémon e companhia, vim seduzido. Não tem nada disso. É um visual novel. Você vai passar horas e horas e horas apertando um mesmo botão para avançar na história. Para quem curte, dizem que é um jogão. Sinceramente? Para mim, foi um desperdício!

Digimon Survive is a really intriguing mix of a Visual Novel and a Tactics RPG. Though there is far more reading then there is combat. The game difficulty-wise is very easy until suddenly you get one shot by a boss in a massive difficulty spike. It doesn't happen super often and when it does you can grind levels a little. But the jumps in difficulty can be a bit of a turn off for some people. If you are trying to 100% the game by recruiting every digimon you will naturally overlevel all the content even if you don't mean to. The story of Digimon Survive follows some of the eariler seasons of the show to a degree in terms of pacing and it really gives off the impression that you're experiencing a darker more adult show. That is to say the story is very much a highlight and when it get's dark it really get's dark. Apart from one ending I thought all the endings where very interesting and kept me engaged all the way through even on repeat playthroughs. My biggest issue in terms of the story is that characters are sometimes a bit overly verbose and some conversations ends up feeling like the characters repeat the same talking point for 10 minutes until everyone is in agreement. This is a personal point but some characters end up feeling a little underdeveloped for story reasons and I think it is a shame not every character has an equal chance to shine in the story. One side character in particular is so pointless, they would hardly be noticed if they where absent. The tactical combat is pretty basic, it has the simple mechanics of doing more damage from the side/behind aswell as elevation increasing your crit chance and ability to hit. For the most part it works fine and every Digimon has a unique passive even if some are a lot better than others. There is an issue of the main cast of story Digimon being so much better that I would wager most if not everyones end team largely looks the same give or take 1 or 2 Digimons. Overall Digimon Survive is a very fun Visual Novel experience and scratched a bit of the Tactical RPG itch, if you like Digimon I think you'll have an awesome time with this one.

Harmonious and True route playthrough here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAFtZ4pMPIc4JzwRO-wm_l8XSo3FEN-Re I have been playing through EVERY Digimon game in english with only the DLC for Time Stranger and and Next Order (already beaten) left and I can say with Certainty this is the WORST Digimon Game ever made even worse than Digimon World 2. I cannot believe this game is 60 bucks this may have been one of the worst visual novels I have ever played and I've played quite a few single game dev indie visual novels. There's 20ish minutes of credits mostly being quality assurance and they can't match dialogue to the right character there's spelling issues etc. This game seems to want to fit into the psychological thriller genre, but the writers are absolutely inept at providing a back story for any of the characters. The writers would rather go in a circle explaining something 10+ times then give us a character the player can care about. Character personalities do not have a gradual transition to madness/sanity they literally jump from one end of the spectrum for the plot all the way to the other once their insane arc chapter ends. The game is completely on the rails you can change the endings but almost all the events before that are set in stone for a $60.00 game it can at the very least make your choices feel like they matter and provide some decent ones that fit the scenario. I bought this game for $10.00 when it was on sale and I still feel ripped off the game is so bad. I thought the combat was a nice touch at first, but honestly outside of showcasing the artists work and the digivolutions the combat is so shallow and easy even on the hardest difficulty it just feels like another obstacle to keep you from finishing the terrible story outside of the redundant plot regurgitation. The game should be called Kemonogami Survive because the plot doesn't match anything from Digimon outside of just inserting digimon characters. The game literally feels like someone at this studio came up with the idea for a game and Bandai decided to make it digimon related after the fact for a cash grab. The creatures are not called Digimon until like the last minute and a half of the true ending and nothing about them is digital at all. The artists are the only ones that deserve credit for their work in the game, because the art actually looks solid. The death scenes are the only thing that's mature in the game the game's story is completely bland and simplistic and the creators still look down on their audience enough to repeat the themes over and OVER AND OVER again. They give characters dialogue when they literally have nothing of meaning to add to the scenario. The time they used repeated the plot points they could have actually went into depths and gave the characters personality. You'd have to be a die hard Digimon Zealot to like this game, because honestly outside of the title and the inserted characters it doesn't fit. Digimon for the longest has been trying to transition to more mature games/stories, but they can't seem to trust their audience enough to make a story line that doesn't assume their audience is incapable of comprehending a more in depth plot. I honestly thought this game may have been the exception given the mature death scenes, but that was just added for short shock value.

had so much fun until i did the wrathful route... i have not been so scarred from a digimon game.

I have never been more frustrated by a game. And that's not a complaint, this was frustrating in all the right ways, and that made it more rewarding when I managed to get what I was hunting for. My one criticism is that this could have deeper combat mechanics and more tactical positioning elements. Otherwise, it's a great story about loss and survival and all the things that make life bad and good, and I like that. It's very digimon. I don't like visual novels, but the visual novel element wasn't super off-putting, even if it was a little slow and restrictive at times. Definitely recommend if you're looking for another more mature story from the Champion of Moster Collector franchises.

After playing through this game I'm disappointed I spent 10$ on it. The good: The first person perspective is nice well done and stylish, the digimon feel like they are there in front of you. A few tracks are nice, but few and far between. The VA's sound like they're trying even if the script is bad. Goku? The Bad: Battles feel pointless, if you were to play this for some reason just put battles on very easy and hit Auto. It's about the same difference. Evolution trees and lines are so limited you'll get most of your partner's evolutions from wild digimon. The talk mechanic is the only thing making them worse at all than your partners. The requirements for meeting goals feels restricted, Free time may as well not exist either since it isn't free time. The game plays like a novel filled with annoying stupid children, it's like if you played season 1 of digimon except stupid and uninspiring. The game is overpriced, if you want a good grid rpg experience you can play Disgaea 1-5, same for story. Any one of them will be better than this. 3/10, it's a game.

At first, Ryo really annoyed me, but Shuuji? He’s on a whole different level of awful. He is literal trash , and honestly, everything he does pisses me off. Ryo is ok for me now ,He's just a coward that seem to have something on his mine but Shuuji OMG, Arrogant cowardly jerk. I want to kick his ass off a cliff.

Digimon Survive ist eine Visual-Novel mit taktischen RPG-Elementen - Basierend auf einem unserer allerliebsten Animes aus dem Kindesalter. Positiv: - Sehr hochwertig für eine VN - Tolle Zeichnungen - Teils synchronisiert - RPG Elemente frischen das Gameplay auf - Düstere erbarmungslose Geschichte... - ... aber auch wieder toller Fokus auf Freundschaft und Zusammenhalt (Digimon typisch) - Viele verschiedene Entscheidungen haben Einfluss auf den Verlauf der Geschichte. - Story zum Ende sehr spannend Negativ: - Die Geschichte hatte ein paar Längen - Den Kämpfen fehlt es an taktischer Tiefe, weswegen sie zum Ende oft eher ermüdend sind. - Das Rektrutierungssystem für neue Digimon ist etwas anstrengend. - Generell hätte es mehr Auswahl geben können. - Guilmon hätte kein DLC für 2-4€ sein müssen/dürfen... Unterm Strich ist Digimon Survive sicher kein Meisterwerk, aber es macht definitiv Spaß und ist im Sale für einen sehr schmalen Taler zu haben. Wer allerdings sonst nichts mit Digimon zu tun hatte, wird hier wohl keine Freude haben.
