I will play the demo soon.

Yesss. I already expected it to run fine on Deck, but now I get to confirm before pre-ordering for the BlackAgumon and BlackGabumon.

Unless Nintendo surprises and the Switch 2 version is announced this week for same day release.

Oh heck yeah, this game looks fantastic. Looking forward to trying it for myself.

I barely touched Cyber Sleuth 2 just because it was so clearly an asset flip from Cyber Sleuth, I couldn't get into how it was just the same game in the same areas with some different characters and a side story narrative.

So for me this is the first actual new entry in this sub franchise and has been a LONG time coming.

I'm happy to see both how much better this looks and that it seems to be garnering a lot more attention so far during pre-release.

I didn't think I'd live to see the day where Pokemon isn't the most hyped game of its release month for me.

It bothers me that the main Digimon character is basically 99% human so I'm worried about really getting invested into the story, but the game itself looks fun so we'll see.

Like 70% of all Digimon seem to end up being a human by the time they hit Mega anyway, so that's just how it goes.

Yeah, that doesn't mean I have to like it :(

I dunno, it just kinda defeats the purpose of it for me when they are supposed to be DIGITIAL MONSTERS.

And then we get a main Digimon OC that's a human with a horn.

Yea but Gomamon is one of the starters so it's ok

TRUE

Sounds like it's a start of the game save transfer demo, 4ish hours. Glad this is becoming the norm. I find myself just not playing demos that don't carry over anymore.

Demo transferring over is a must these days, yeah

At the very least for an RPG. I'm a little more lenient of it outside the genre

Aegiomon seems to be based on a satyr, but looking at the updates, at least he kinda ends up taking on more non-human traits as he digivolves. One of the Ultimate forms is like only one-third human, one third-goat, and one-third mech. Another one is one-third plant. Though I imagine you still only see him in Champion(?) mode for most of the story.

I have been avoiding most promotional material for the game, but I heard that some recent info came out about how the digivolution tree and mechanics in this one are completely next level from things in the past. Hopefully that not obscurely next level.

This whole time I assumed Aegiomon was a new creation for this game's story, but now I see he's been around since 2012.

Looked at the starters for the first time an yeah it's Gomamom. Nothing against Patamon and Demidevimon but they're too obvious lol.

Steam Demo is out for you PC folks.

If it's anything like the Cyber Sleuth games, the starter choice mean practically nothing.

Playing the demo was a mistake.

Now I want more. D:

Demo beated.

Story so far makes no sense and is weird.

Gameplay is fun.

Lmao same

Why did it end there, why not cut it 5 minutes earlier?

I know it's all MEANT to be confusing right now in preparation for timey wimey stuff, but yeah it's not exactly clean so far. Love playing it, though, and haven't touched the mode that unlocks after where they met you play around with higher level stuff yet.

Right now my biggest concern is actually the music. Whoever approved that NOISE (can't call it a song) that plays throughout that entire building section needs to have their head checked.

There was a perfect point they could have cut at and then ran it another 10 minutes for some reason that just made things even more confusing LOL
