Should I even bother keeping the free Royal Knights on the Farm if I don't plan on using them until maybe late game (for leadership traits or whatever?), or are they just taking up space to branch out my initial evolutions?

TBH I never used them in battle (only used the Builder ones for farm stuff), but from what I read they're pretty inferior to the real deals (I assume you mean the various NX versions?). There's plenty of space in the bank (it expands as the game goes on), so you can just dump them there.

The whole scene felt like a repeat of Gohan going Super Saiyan 2 (especially with a robot's head getting smashed) so it makes perfect sense. Gohan has a pure heart and so does Mimi.

They're only about as strong as champions. If you don't use them early they aren't worth using at all.

Nodosaur posted:did anyone notice Mugendramon/Machinedramon in MetalGreymon's bank evolution? You noticed that, too? Omnicrom posted:Not until you pointed it out. That would be a fun bad evolution to use instead of Skull Greymon. I’d be more thematic to see him taken over by his cybernetics than turn into a pile of bones. Plus, it would link him to a Dark Master and fit Machinedramon’s origin as a mix of parts from cyborg Digimon. The guy was terribly underused in the original Adventure given his importance to the franchise as both the first final boss and half of Millenniummon.

A giant wasp that looks like a Mega Evolved Beedrill hosed a Gundam that is a Captain Planet badguy’s dream. That’s terrifying. Almost as bad as Poor Piyo’s evolution animations still getting the short end of the stick but, still.

I assume someone said "Hey, since Cannonbeemon is blatantly based on the Gundam GP-03D why don't we make it AS BIG as the Gundam GP-03D? Also by this point I think it's safe to just assume that the evolution sequence money is going to be primarily spent on Agumon and Gabumon and the rest will have shorter and less elaborate ones. Once I think this would have annoyed me, but on the other side of Xros Wars and Appmon any such ardor has cooled. Nowadays I tend to see Evolution sequences mostly as a way to spend time building hype using the insert song. What's important is less the animation so much as the anticipation of something cool brought on by letting them run through the first few bars of Be The Winners or X-Treme Fight. It's not like fancy and elaborate evolution sequences make a good series because Appmon didn't have those. Semi-related the episode I'm most interested in now is going to be episode 16 when we're out of Perfects and it'll be time to push the plot forward. The last run of evolution episodes have been mostly good and not great, in that early Adventure 99 inspired way when you had runs of episodes that were mostly perfunctory but necessary to get all the evolutions and the crests so the show could advance. And that's fine and all, but I'm ready and eager to see them advance the show so we can get to the late Adventure 99 stuff. Omnicrom fucked around with this message at 05:50 on Aug 30, 2020 |

Nice, I’m personally hoping Pusurimon and its evolutions make it into the anime one day as well (mostly because it’s too good a design in my opinion to be stuck in kind of a crappy game).

a lot of people liked to tout it as better than Savers back in the day because it was more traditional while Savers changed a bunch of series conventions, but it's seen as pretty average now. It's got something of a problem with character focus, and the main girl characters are either left out of the action or treated as mcguffins or damsels in distress. In a sharp contrast to Xros Wars, a character named Yuu is probably the best character in it.

It also suffers from having a very lackluster final boss, as well as some awkwardness due to initially using the two main Savers lines for the protagonists but then suddenly switching things up by changing out the Ultimates for VictoryGreymon and ZeedGarurumon even though they don't fit at all with the rest of their lines Also I still say it's weird that they introduced new variants of WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon but then never made an Omegamon variant for them

Yeah, I'll second all of that. Next is a pretty okay manga. Of the big three (V-Tamer, Next, Xros Wars) it's definitely the worst. It's never sure if it wants to be fully traditional (it has literal V-pets in it!) or a Savers-like so it mashes things oddly, the plot isn't too interesting but it's decent, the characters are written well enough, the finale is rushed as hell and doesn't really hit particularly well but it's not terrible, the main girl is nice but she never gets to do anything (despite getting Mega first and stupidly early at that), it has some interesting ideas which it executes fairly enough but never extremely well... It's the very definition of "okay", basically. It never really does anything too bad but it never does anything excellently either. If you have time to read a manga, and haven't read the other two I mentioned, I'd recommend them far more, but if you have and you want to add more to your Digimon lore, Next won't hurt you. It's perfectly decent.

made another one of my V-Pet style Sprite evolution charts, this time for Tanemon; had to get creative in certain parts and even ended up cheating a little by using some fan made sprites, might tweak later cause some parts I'm a little iffy on(and before you ask that second Palmon line is actually 100% a canon line) previous charts for comparison;

Someone posted the Burst Mode sprites from the Accel V-Pets and man, I wish some of these got to appear outside of the Accels. Most are kind of unimpressive but Evil MarineAngemon and NarWhamon at least deserve to be full Digimon. https://twitter.com/JP_Excelsior/status/1301108092348837890

Is it any fun? I have a soft spot for the original card game but this seems pretty different. I have to admit that the lack of individual attack names and evolution requirements is disappointing to me.

From quick glances it seems to be simmlar in getup to MTG wherein your trying to attack your opponent's life points (represented as a stack of seven cards which they draw on with each attack) by getting through their defending Digimon. It also has an intresting resource system in that there's a centeral "Pool" of points and the more you use the more points your opponent (Up to a max of 10, which given some digivolutions have a cost of 13, means they going into overdraft is both likely and encouraged) has to use on their turn.
