We're going with the Manic pack to appease Giver and we'll go with Bard just because I've been reading the A Bard's Tale LP on the archives.

For the most part your spoiler just digivolves you to your next natural form instantly for a few turns and also lets you use that form's finisher for free. it's also a full hp/mp heal. poo poo gets weird past level 40 It's really strong sometimes but annoying to set up.

The spoilered mechanic is nice when it activates, but it's really hard to actually use effectively. It's like FF9's Trance Mechanic. Where once it's full, gently caress you if you're against a trash mob, it goes off IMMEDIATELY, you don't get the choice to fill it out and them launch it against a boss, you gotta meticulously fill it up ALMOST to full, THEN fight the boss and hope it's enough if you're completely underleveled. I remember my Patamon going into Magna Angemon and completely ripped a boss to shreds for the time it lasted. Felt good man.

Hey, Yeti! You forgot to get a couple key items which let you do poo poo! Unless you intend to show them off later. They were towards the beach behind the Gym and down...East? West?...Weast? Whatever that direction is! Even if the mons down there would be able to kick your rear end.

No, that's mistake 0. Mistake 1 was letting the goons vote on the digimon pack to use. Mistake number 4 is him not using a cheat code to increase XP gains.

God I had a ton of trouble fighting Apokarimon-Lite the first time I played this. It was one of my first RPGs (FF9, Chrono Cross, Pokemons Blue/Yellow and Golden Sun being some of my first ones as well), needless to say I survived the fight by the skin of my teeth and limped back to Seiryu City right afterwards to heal. I didn't exactly get the "concept" of grinding until the early-mid 2000s.

Counter Crest alleviates a lot of the horrible grinding the game makes you do otherwise. It makes the game so much more playable.

Unfortunately the PAL version killed it with a nuke from orbit, nerfing it's simple existence of breaking the game into the ground.

For myself, I think it was around...the third or fourth gym leader that I just threw my hands up in the loving air and gave up entirely on DW3 as a whole. I don't remember anything to that point though because I was a kid when I got there. So, all in all, good luck Yeti...god loving knows you'll need it.

it's definitely a thing Pokemon and Digimon have opposite situations (for the lack of a better world): Pokemon's anime ranges from So bad it's good to just bad, but the games are quite good, while Digimon's Anime is generally good (ignoring Frontier) but the games are pretty bad.

Eh, I'd like to argue that Dawn and Dusk were pretty good all things considered.

The Digimon Adventure game for PSP is pretty good. Too bad I can't understand a word anyone is saying besides "shinka" and names.

Still got another leader to go and a fuckload of plot to deal with. And then Yeti has to boot up the PAL version and show off post-game THERE. Hacking will likely be involved because gently caress replaying the game a second time for that footage.

The any% speedrun is 'only' 7:22 hours, and heavily abuses that counter attack accessory that was banned partway through this LP. So I imagine that levelling up all the digimon takes well over a hundred hours of grinding....
I feel bad for any kids that tried to change their team partway through the game.

Seriously, the game's bad enough about EXP, no real reason to change up the group unless you have a SERIOUSLY bad party.

I have a (very crappy!) LP of Digimon World 4 on the LP archive, actually. Go ahead and check it out, but it was my first LP ever and it's horrible in pretty much every way. I've been meaning to redo it, but that would mean I need to A) get the equipment to LP it, and B) find three people dumb enough to LP it with me.

I think whats even shittier is If i'm not mistaken, the US version not only has no postgame, but is stuck in this state of everyone in the game being pigs besides like divermon before the last boss fight.

So enjoy card island, or just turn the game off.

It's a lovely game with some charming parts, but most of the charm is in the first half and it makes a lot of sense why I usually stopped playing midway through in all attempts to replay.

EU got the version with an actual Post Game in it. Digimon 2003. So. Yea. gently caress US, enjoy your pigification~
