The problem is that Digimon killed Bandai's grandma or something because the hate boner they have for the Digital Monsters makes no sense, the IP has such a dedicated fanbase that it manages to thrive time and time again...only for Bandai to shoot it in the foot every single time it does.
LMAO😭😂
@@user-ry3hf3jh3p the fans make a mmo?
IMO, Pokémon and Digimon could stand to learn from each other. Pokémon can be a bit too formulaic, and hits its stride when it flips the script (ie Legends Arceus). Digimon is a bit too chaotic in it’s different types of games and hits its stride when it brings us something familiar (following up Cyber Sleuth with Hacker’s Memory).
Well put. And it goes even further tbh
the biggest problem with digimon games, everything is canonical and everything has no consistency
Literally because all the digimon world digimon world are apart of the digimon lore. Like Mastemon is exclusive to cyber sleuth.
Digimon as a brand has been and may always be anti-consistency
@@RronKarahoda How do you expect to have confidence in the product? When the game is good it's very good, but when the game is bad it's terrible
Me:Wait... Everything's canon?
You: Always has been.
😐🔫
@@TheReZisTLust Of course
The sad truth of the matter is that Bandai-Namco is just now realizing that there is market for new Digimon content.
In my opinion, it's up to the fandom to take up the slack. It's much much easier said than done; but if we can Digimon Survive Fandub mod, or are our version of Shippiddge's "Starter Squad", it'll help draw attention to the brand, and give Bamco extra motivation.
Next Digimon Story game is just gonna have to be Bandai sending us a Digivice and have you fend for yourself in the Digimon World.
LMFAOOO i'm down
That would be cool ngl, there would be any Digimon you can think of
You know, it's really funny that Pokemon is being held up on a quality hill that it doesn't actually stand on. Gamefreak doesn't give a shit. Pokemon doesn't release in a good state at all these days. Sword and Shield are still broken and don't look good. Scarlet and Violet are buggy and not great either. Pokemon is the biggest most profitable media franchise in the world, and they still can't put out stable, not broken mainline games. That's worse, in my opinion, than Digimon not hitting the mark. If you are as big as Pokemon is, but you can't put out a functional game, something ain't right. In the current gaming landscape of "we can just fix it later", it makes me happy to know that some devs are still taking their time making stuff.
pokemon could poop on a plate and still sell a million copies. they don't have to put effort in, and their game sales clearly show that
Exactly
bruh Im seeing so many ppl play Digimon world 1,2,3 on emulators and Im like i wanna play these games too
Me too!
I've heard rumors they're maybe getting a remaster / port, so I've been holding off, but damn if I wait for nothing I'm gonna be bummed.
@@colinthies3178 man as much as I would love for that rumor to be true. I dont think they are even considering it😭 bandai just evil like that just play the emulator ones if you can man. I wish I could
Another thing with Digimon games is the amount of different variants, variety is a good thing but the consistency of the formula of the variety is also important, we have digimon world, and then digimon world 2, both digimon but completely different variants, you got the dungeon formula with random generated dungeons which pokemon copied years down the line with pokemon mystery dungeon, now if you loved digimon world 1 and you played digimon world 2 their concepts are vastly different in gameplay formula, then you look at another game digimon world 3 it's like the pokemon games but more open world to a degree, it keeps changeing so when you get asked what is digimon like you can't really explain it simply because of how much it changes and then digimon world 4... love it or hate it but that was an even wilder stretch in gameplay formula to it's predecessors.
pokemon has kept consistent in it's formula so when someone asks about pokemon you can simply explain what the game is like, sure there's spin offs but they appeared later in more variety but everybody knows what pokemon is and was and that builds fans, because digimon constantly changes you have so many seperated boxes of players which causes so much conflict in the community some loved digimon world 2's formula some loved 3's or 1's some even loved 4's but in terms of carrying a fan across to another game, it lost alot of people because it keeps changeing soo much all the time losing fan retention as some fans who loved the previous might hate the new style of gameplay but they're all called digimon world, so you'd think they are the same but they're not. I could say more but...
It would go on too long and this is enough text to sit through
Honestly, Jam, you're right. I love Digimon so much, but the release schedule is so slow that I often lose track of it! If it wasn't for Cybersleuth, I don't think I'd still be playing Digimon games. That game popped up and I was like "I haven't done Digimon in so long! I loved these monsters as a kid, let's go!" and I experienced a rush that not a lot of series make me feel. I love Digimon. Let me throw money at this company so I can go on more adventures with my Lopmon, dang it! I play Pokemon because my friends and family all are into it, but trying to convince them to give Digimon a shot kinda... isn't working out at all.
I really want a game that brings back the Digidestined formula for the story, where you make your own kid and do a personality test to see which Digimon and what crest you get. And you adventure with either other all new Digidestined or the original team to defeat, uhh, EvilDarkEmpermon or whatever. Captain Tsubasa is a soccer RPG my husband really loves because in that game you make your character and you get to make friends with other kids in that show, and he grew up with those characters. I want that same feeling he gets from Captain Tsubasa, but with my childhood favorite anime: Digimon!! :D
What you go through when trying to convince is how I felt trying to write the original video idea. I was like "who tf am I kidding"
In the current state there's nothing to latch onto. And like you, it was Cyber Sleuth that basically reminded me of Digimon 😂 then they like, blue balled us💀
@@Jamm3r blue balled us at digicon 2023 and the one before where they showed the old games as a trailer 😭and you know its gonna happen again in digicon2024
@@Jamm3r It's hard to argue with that. I do feel blue-balled in regards to Digimon.
I liked Survive because I like VNs, but goodness the battles were a slog. Next Order is okay, I guess. It's not the great adventure I can share and go "this! this is why I'm into Digimon!"
A friend told me "but you're into Final Fantasy and every one of those games is super different" and I said with a sigh, "if you don't play Digimon, you really have no idea what this is like."
Nah, I mean four years isn't that long to develop a video game. Most ips had this kind of wait before the recent push to force games out the door as quickly as possible. I think if you're going to have the kind of release schedule you're talking about you need like at least four different studios working at the same time, and even then, I would maybe have a two year wait between games.
I mean the ideal would be what they were originally planning.
Which was have one full team work on Digimon Story games, One team work on Digimon world games, the other work on Digimon survive series. They would each release a game around a year or so apart so that we get something within like 1-2 years apart.
Cyber sleuth hit the USA 2016
Next order hit 2017
Hacker’s memory hit 2018
Survive hit 2022 due to covid and production hell.
So I feel like the frustration that we as fans have is that we gotten the same 3 games re-released twice on us. The complete edition of Cyber sleuth and hackers memory. Then the re-release of next order with a speed up function that the original needed.
Then we get slapped in the face with the Digimon cons and get told if you really want the old games as ports or remaster let us know :D……. Like we havent been bothering them and bombarding them with the ummm yeah we do want those games. Hell remaster or port over Redigitize Decoded and send it over here to us.
Then we get hit with oh we gonna use money and focus on trailers and an light novel that uses machine translation to translate for non native speakers….. Bandai be hitting us with them fuck yous so hard that its painful to be a fan
If we're gonna compare the two Mon franchise, I've said it before: What Digimon lacks is a solid Core. I love that they experiment, I LOVE that there's room for games like Survive AND games like Next Order... But if you asked anyone, fan or otherwise, what the MAIN line of Digimon games are? Where the core is? What, Digimon World? Buddy that franchise has been a tamagotchi simulator, a dungeon crawler with a tank, a jrpg, an arcade hack and slash, a collectathon, and THEN some!
You KNOW a mainline pokemon title when you see it, versus a spin-off or experimental side project. Can we say the same for Digimon? Do we have anything that we've worked on, polished, gone back to and improved, and reliably called our core series? A tree that's all branches is a bush, and a bush can be nice, but it will NEVER reach those heights the tree can.
Month late but i believe its core is selling merchandise. its like anime. I'm pretty sure the manga is more important for sales as the anime is more so used as a way to sell the manga.
"Oh your fave anime has stopped at season two? Well if you get the manga you'll find the story is already 4-5 seasons ahead so you can just get the manga and get your story fix there."
like from another point of view if digimon's core is merch then one could say it would be more important to but those digimon tomogatchi wrist toys i forget the name of cause that was the original point of the franchise right? you get a toy that you use to take care of your little mon.
I like the games but maybe we all are focusing on the wrong part of the franchise and that may be why we all think the franchise is stalling for so long.
Jam, you’re becoming one of my favorite creators. I love your content, thanks for all the work you put into them
🙏🏾❤️❤️
I think maybe you hinted that where a lot of the time and energy is going. If Mobile in Live service games make a mint, there's not a huge incentive to risk money on another Digimon World style game.
But I'm with you, I don't want to play a mobile game. Maybe the recent success of single player RPGs will make bandai notice what they should be doing.
I'd rather they put out a good mobile game (global!) deal with the repercussions of its success than what's going on rn
Bandai be on that digiweed when making games
I feel like bandai forgets digimon exists sometimes which is sad

🙏🏾😤
I want a Digimon game in which you have ONE partner like in the series... I don't want to run around and kill as many wild Digimon as possible. I want it to have a deep, emotional story. I want to play it with my friends as "Digi-Destined".
The potential of Digimon is huge. Imagine a game that is linked to all your digital devices (Like Console, PC, Smartphone) because everything is connected to the digital world. Imagine a game that comes with a Digivice that can be connected to your game and is used for evolution (With the quality of a SCSA Digivice...). Maybe the smartphone part of the game can be a bit like Pokemon GO so you do something in the real world (without the catching of course).
Gonna be perfectly honest. That 2nd part is stupid. I don't want to need some phone app or gimmicky item to play a video game. As for the first part, that's kinda what Survive is. Otherwise, just stick to the anime.
Monster Rancher tried something like that, and look what happened.
@@s3studios597 Well thank you for telling me that the 2nd part is stupid to you? xD For me that's something I'd really love to have 🤷🏼♂ I'd love to have a Digivice gimmicky item to make it feel more real.
The biggest problem with Digimon games are 2 things:
(1) The small scale of playable Digimon inside the actual games we always seem to get, like after Card Battle or Digimon World 2 it started
(2) That a great deal of Digimon games didn't even leave Japan's borders, so people don't even know that Digimon is split in "Digimon World" (Tamagochi) and "Digimon RPGs"...unless you are part of the emulation squad
Man i really hate these Tamagotchi parts of Digimon, it's horrible to waste só much time strengthening your Digimon just so he could die of old age it's horrible
started playing Digimon digitize decode recently, and for the couple hours ive been playing for, its great!
man how are you playing it 😭😭 I want to play the game in english. Is it the 3ds one or the psp version?
yea Digitize Decode pretty cool game, better than Next ORDER lol

Patience Bro! :D
It's been years. Wdym patience
@@ayoubp7689 almost decade XD
I understand what your saying. I do. The only thing that really makes sense to me... is that the next Story game must be in development hell. I know nobody likes that word and hearing that... but it's the ONLY thing that makes sense to me for why it's taking so long. I get the pandemic delayed things but that's no longer an excuse that can be used (IMO at least). It's either that... or development had to start over from the beginning so it could be made for PS5 instead of PS4 because PS4 isn't the current console generation. That's even worse. Also... Bamco aren't going to give out the money for english dubs of Digimon games anymore. They just aren't. Survive is a prime example of this. They are barely doing english dubs as it is with their current games that aren't named SAO, Tales of, or the occasional anime or fighting game. I still feel like Bamco are TRYING to kill the Digimon franchise as a whole due to the fact that they are SAO simps, and want to do nothing but anime games and fighting games. But this is just obviously only how I feel and I've made that clear several times already in comments and on the Discord and I don't like sounding like a broken record so I'll say nothing further on this.
Pokemon fans do nothing but complain because they get a bunch of games but then complain about issues and framerate and graphics. So they are fed well and still complain about how much they are fed. But Digimon fans are expected to wait close to a DECADE for an actual next game. It is what it is I guess.
If we don't get something from Digimon Con 2024 (which is my expectation at this point but I hope I'm wrong) then forget it. Digimon games are either fully dead and Bamco succeeded in killing the franchise or we hope for something in 2025. My belief is we are going to be expected to wait until 2025 at minimum. Unfortunately. But time will tell.
I wish I had better news. I do. But this is just the situation. Bamco won't give out the money for english dubs of Digimon games anymore and they are potentially actively trying to kill the franchise for good (along with .hack and Klonoa) and we are being expected to wait close to a decade just for ONE Digimon game. They won't even give updates anymore and we were given YEARLY updates on Survive. It's concerning. To say the least. They fact they won't give an update on the next Story game... tells me it's either in development hell or it had to start over from the beginning for PS5 instead of PS4. And mobile games don't cut for me either. I don't like them and there are too full of microtransaction garbage. But again this is just me.
So yeah. It sucks. I don't mean to seem doom and gloom but I'm just matching the vibe of this video I guess. Or how I perceived it I guess.
It is what it is. I guess. Even I hate saying that though. Everyone claims Digimon is thriving but it's really not if you ask me. It might be closer to death than ever before. You win Bamco I guess. You finally got your wish. Jerks.
Or not. idk. Sorry. I'm just matching what I felt from this video. Or just my personal interpretation of it.
We need a Digimon world game, and I mean a whole World. Starting on File Island (tutorial) and then moving onto other continents, continents should be anime season themed. They can start with file island and then give us DLCs with the continents. As for game play (and even co-op) I wouldn't mind active battle like in the Borderlands games, you can take control of your partner digimon or give him commands DMW1 style, and if you play as a Digimon you can tell the human that you need a hp or mp disk or that you want to digivolve into another form, keeping it active both ways. Also a connected game app with mini games, let the digimon partner train or hunt for items (item hunt automatic or manual in DMW2 dungeon and exploring style). Co-op should have DNA digivolution attacks like in DMW3, and mega levels can be normal or fused with partner Tamers style. Human can also use digimon cards for boosts or special attacks. And the game should also be playable in VR. Add to this comments if I missed other cool stuff to add to the game 😂
Naturally the graphics of the world should be higher quality but still have the digital world charm, but bigger world is more important then super realistic graphics. And there can be tournaments with other players or a battle royal where you can participate against others. You can also find cards and battle NPCs or other players in a card battle. Or kick trees to fight a cardmon ;)
Bruh okay everybody comment and add onto this, we'll make the most magical digimon game in the comments😭
I just need action-like combat while controlling a digimon - I want my X button to be Agumons claw attack, then R1 is Baby Flame. Give me some combo's while we're here too.
Next feature is you can actually achieve dark digivolutions at any stage if you really just treat your digimon bad they won’t become sukamon or numemon they will become like Arcadiamon or something but then you get an automatic bad ending and literally see you digimon absorb or eat you. Then the game says something like now you know the consequences of abusing digimon would you like to go back a week Yes or no. If you say yes the game continues if no you have to start a month before the dark digivolution occurs.
Great video Jam. We were definitely being nice about that patience thing man but when are we gonna actually get this together? The people running Digimon outside the anime maybe need a grip on reality.
It’s unfortunate that Namcobandai isnt funding or backing digimon. They want it to fail or look for reason to make it fail.
Digimon Cyber sleuth made $$$ cause we didnt have any game in so long
Next order needed to work on the Story part cause thats what it lacked heavy on.
Digimon Survive - I liked the dark story but the 7:3 Visual novel is not for everyone and the fighting sucked honestly
Im hopping they do something man.
seekers is like what dead in the water? They need to get a good team of dedicated people who want to see it succeed. the longer they take to give us something the more we want it to be amazing.
We need to rush namco lol be like yo give us something!!! please shit I dont wanna be like 50 waiting on a good digimon game lol.
Cries at 30 . Got my digi cherry popped at 7 years old aint been the same since.
Being a Digimon fan is suffering.
Bruh... Digimon has sooooo much potential and it looks so cool. Digimon design are so badass and when they're animated, they do be looking so absolutely sick.
I bought physical next order for switch even though I bought it on release back than for digital ps4 and 100% the game and I am having a BLAST with the game. Playing it for the second time and I don't feel it aged bad, such a fun game (if you know how to play it).
I will probably one day buy Cyber Sleuth + Hackers Memory for Switch as well, just for the collection and maybe that will support the Digimon Franchise. I have them both on PS4 digital as well but playing on the switch is so much more fun.
I love Digimon but these mf just keep hurting us with Games that are not consistent. All of them are good and have a target audience but the target audience changes with every single new release...
Digimon World 1-4 all are different games and have nothing to do with each other. Then why call them 1, 2, 3, 4? The later generations at least get their specific "Digimon Story" or "Digimon World" title, which helps with seperating the genre. But if we only get like 1 game every 5 years... Bruh by that time my hypothetical children will play the next game before I get to.
Just stop hurting us dear Digimon God's. Give us the good stuff and give us more. Don't let us wait 10 years per game...
This might piss off older Digimon fans, but....
The Cybersleuth gameplay is what Digimon games need to do to move forward. It's no coincidence that Complete Edition helped boost the sales of it, cause it's more simple than the traditional world games. In terms of grinding and farming it's more convenient and less complicated.
Talking to an old time friend who recently has been trying to play Digimon games and his issue with CS is the amount of text.
If they can finetune the Story style, we would see even better results. People are looking for Digimon games to play man lol.
Also, don't sleep on World games. They also need to be tightened up, but if we could balance that style....THATS a true digimon game IMO
The good news is that the tcg is popping off rn.
6:07
It helps they CAN'T poop out games like they used to. No once can. During the PS1 development time was measured in months, but now a days they're measured in years. A few months ago I was reading that during the next console generation AAA games will likely have a development cycle of 6-8 years.
Games just take longer to make.
You say that Pokemon games have adapted, that they're taking longer to make... but have they?
Since the game boy days, a generation of Pokemon has always lasted 3-4 years. They aren't giving their games proper development time, and that's one of the big reasons why Scarlet / Violet is in such a poor state. They're at critical mass and can't maintain the same development cycle that worked 20 years ago when games were a fraction the size and complexity they are now.
It depends what kind of game we're talkin about. A MOBA or live service game needs less time as development continues as the games life continues...
But you're not wrong
@@Jamm3r You're not wrong either. It's wild to me how Bandai tries to brand itself as "premium," and don't get me wrong, a lot of the merch is really high-quality stuff, but why doesn't that quality seem to extend to their video games? You raise some keen points when you mention that Digimon basically hasn't had anything on modern hardware except Survive and Rumble Arena, and maybe that plays a bigger role in the odd quality than I'm giving it credit for, but whatever is going on you're also right that this next story game... we've got high expectations for it.
Not gonna lie though, I can't be too mad at their pipeline. If they made games faster I probably never would have found Big Jam. I came across you while desperately searching for scraps of news about Survive during that odd limbo where we didn't even know if the game was cancelled or still coming.
Yeah, I can't be... TOO mad :P They still gotta step it up though.
Digimon always has been my Guilty pleasure as Kid, Teen and even as adult, the First Digimon World game really clicked with me and it pains me to see with each game they seem to miss the mark as it sometimes feels like it's getting close.
The new digimon world games are fun and it had some fun easters for the fans but so much of the game was way below par that it looked like it could run on the ps2.
I feel if they just grab any fan of the digimon games and ask him for tips and do like 40% of them you will have a 10x better digimon games, the stuff it's lacking often are so obvious it feels like the developers are still stuck in the 90's without the creativity.
If you pay attention, you can notice that this man is slowly losing his sanity after every passing minute of this video :v
The problem with Digimon is Bandai. They act like the child isn't theirs. They don't wanna invest on it, they don't want to advertise it, they don't wanna put merch about it in their own shops, they act like they don't want anything to do with it, but let them exist cause they're basically self-sufficient.
I thought things were getting better with Survive and the Card Game, since they actually put some effort to market those, especially near Survive release, but other than the social media pages, it kinda died off.
Sincerely, I don't even know if I want them to care, cause right now Digimon is in a spot where they can take their time and pretty much do anything they want with their budget, even if it's not great. And every time the Bandai higher ups get involved with this IP, something goes wrong.
OMG SO WHAT DO WE DO 😵💫 YOU'RE SO RIGHT🤦🏾♂️
To be honest, I don't know. If the next Story game does really well, they might start caring, but we also run the risk of having Digimon being put in the center of attention of the investors. Which will likely poison their development cycle, creativity and the freedom on what they're allowed to have on their games.
All we can do right now is wait and hope they just let Habu and the team do whatever they want regardless. But even now he doesn't have full control on the projects.
As he said during the time Bandai USA had Sistermon Noir censored, he has no control on how the game releases in the west.
I love your commitment to the OG Digimon World game, subbed! Thank you :)
I feel that two main reasons Digimon games don't get that much attention.
One, The Main One, Bandai for some reason beyond my comprehension thought hey you know how that Nintendo game Pokemon that's about making friends and battling monsters is doing so well, and we have one like that. Let's not put any effort into it.
Two, Digimon never set into a iconic style for their games, and this led to people just seeing it as a Pokemon rip off. I now the V-Pet style doesn't ring with everyone, but they could make spin-offs, and overtime refine the V-Pet style to be more accessible.
jammer is genial in his scripts
"I'm just tainted by Digimon World." This is such a true statement. If you are old enough to have played that before anything else then it's hard not to play new digimon games and think "man this would be so much better if they pulled more from World." I have a similar sentiment with World 3. Like, I love Cyber Sleuth and Hacker's Memory, but every time I sit down to play them I hear the soundtrack to World 3 in the back of my head. Here's to hoping that 2024 is the year that a digimon game goes hard.
It's funny cause I'm in the middle of my first ever Digimon World playthrough and I still have this thought process 😂
As a digimon and a .hack// fan why does bandai have such a tight grip on dope franchises with niche fanbases that they do nothing with gaming wise for long stretches of time. It hurts to see
side note… where the ghoulmon at?
What I don't care about
-Voice acting (ai generated is fine or without voice)
-Graphics (keep it oldschool or improve slightly, its fine)
-Story/plot (keep it the same or skip it)
What I care about:
-New mon generations
-More Megas/omega levels
-More moves
-Make it MMO (can fite with online players 1v1 to 6v6 max)
-More regions
-Less time consuming tasks/quests (should be based on skills/strategies instead of luck/timing)
-More RTS/team synergy like pokmon.
I mean...based off of this, digimon masters online sounds like your game🤔
The big thing with Digimon games is they so rarely are consistent between them. If they spent the last 25 years refining the gameplay and new user experience from digimon world 1 over the course of several titles instead of trying completely different systems each time, I honestly think they would be in a much better place in terms of relevancy. The fact that in the west we didnt get a game with a similar gameplay style to world 1 until 2016 with next order is crazy.
Not to say All other Digimon games are bad, far from it. But digimon lacks that "Main line series" that Games like Pokemon and even persona have. Its the main lines that keep people coming back and keeps the IP relevant
Exactly.
One thing to add is redigitize is the other World game we got in between World 1 - I hear its good but it's a DS game😔
@@Jamm3r True, always forget about that one. Even with it that's 3 games between 1999 and 2016. If they had embraced being able to work on next gen consoles while Pokémon was stuck on handhelds they could have pulled away with it.
Pretty good analysis.
The chip crunch WAS SO FUNNY 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 but I can’t wait to get into this. Yeah more games like digimon cyber sleuth and digimon dawn and dusk need to be made. Also the mobile games Were lit I’m sad they kept shutting it down. Yeah digimon doesn’t have a sense of urgency 😂. Yes digimon give us a game
great video ong, it reminds me of the digimon video Jaiden animations made with a similar vibe to it
I just want more replayable and addicting games!
My biggest gripe with Digimon games is that they're trying so hard to please every kind of gamer with a game. Survive tries to get on that tactics genre, NO came after Arceus and Cyber sleuth is, well, a JRPG. But they should ask their core audience what they want really. Pokemon always stays in it's lane for their main entries while spinoffs get that niche. Digimon is just... everywhere. But I'm glad that Cyber sleuth came out even as it's a very solid game. Bamco should listen to the people more. Hell, the TCG is a huge hit in japan and they're really hitting that market right now.
You should also note that they have issue with exclusivity of content like they finally doing more "global", but still got exclusives 😢
I remember as a kid and still today I always preferred Digimon to Pokémon. The designs seemed more cool to me, the story seemed more deep interactive. The merch and toys were always fire. I just so wish Digimon would become a bit more household again. It feels still very niche die hard.
I have always hated overdesigned monsters. Have a Digimon like say Mercurymon, good stuff. A Digimon with 18 wings on its back, holding 2 machine guns with Spikes all over its body is hot trash. Digimon pulls back its way better, which is why I prefer the designs in pokemon more.
everytime this man posts he COOKS!
But really tho, you touched on every point there is. They seem too unbothered.
You know what it is? they don’t have the desire to compete. This “fire” to out-do others, to stand out. They release something every now and then and see if it’s doing anything or nah. They start working on some new game but by the time it releases the console is dead 💀.
Either way, Digimon got potential, deadly potential, they just have no drive whatsoever to do something about it.
Got confused the first few minutes but in the end he did talk about digimon
The catch is I was talking about Digimon from the very beginning 🧐
I feel something that's been good and bad for Digimon, is it's variety. Both from the shows to the games. Like starting season 3 Digimon started every season being new group, couple new digimon. It's good it keeps things fresh each season trying new things to bring to the table. Or the games having a variety of genres. A visual novel, a monster collector ala Pokémon, a brawler, a battle pet simulator. It's nice seeing different approaches to the games. It's not like Pokémon you already know the same thing going in.
But that variety lies a big issue, an issue of consistency. Pokémon has a lot of success from the show and the toys especially. Kids latched originally go Ash and his journey, and each season following him to the next chapter. Seeing the new region new Pokémon etc. Causing kids to want to get all said merch and all said games to follow suit. Digimon doesn't have that same crank out system. Sometimes there's gaps between a new show or movie, or hell even new merch. So quickly that attention is dropped to what's next.
I feel between the two franchises, Digimon has always been for the more die hard the devoted. Because we'd all be on stand by for the next dropping of news whether it be new figures or plushes, to a new game. You gotta bear through the trenches a bit.
I'd kill for a Digimon game with more variety (500+ mons) I love customizing teams and digivolution paths
i totally agree on your views on this topic.
it has a similar feeling like when an very good anime doesnt get another new season because they just made enough money with the anime and dont wanna give the people what they want in order for them to read the manga instead ( example. No game no Life)
Like you said "They dont care" but i would most likely enjoy a new good digimon game
Overall, I agree with everything you're saying. It feels right and puts a lot of my feelings in to words. There is a lot of cross culutural feelings between Asian and Western audiences, and I feel like the bad bits feel WORSE for Western audiences since we miss out on a lot of the in-between content and smaller releases (this was more evident during DS and 3DS era releases, and then now with the nicher mobile release.) Love love LOVE your style and delivery, keep up the great work!!!!!!
If you look at Bandai games, they tend to half effort it. Jump Force, Gundam Evolution, etc. They take a strong IP, make it look pretty, then try to monetize it.
The TCG game was fun, but it's obviously money over quality in regards to that.
Gundam Evolution is an easy access/entry point game for the rest of the world which is why it is so very much like Overwatch. If they were really serious, they would have put out some way for Switch users to play Gundam Battle Operation 2 which is the hardcore game fans play.
As for Jump Force, that's an issue with the studio making it since previous games weren't like that.
@@nicodalusong149 IMO, the lack of crossplay played a major part(not the only part, of course) in the decline of player base. Especially, since steam couldn't play with Microsoft, even if both was on PC 😆
My main point is, we see the route Bandai goes with their video games and card games. Obviously, a company wants money, but as a consistent consumer you can see the trends.
Next World Order felt like it was made to take as much time as possible to play(time sink). Why am I paying money to fly via Birdramon if I have my own Birdramon! 😆 🤣 😂
we want more like Digimon Adventure game PSP.
LOWKEY!
Jam, you think we might hear something at digimon con 2024 ?
We have to
@@Jamm3r right 🫡
When it comes to Pokémon there's such a thing as "too much". I have more of an appreciation when Digimon does get a new game. I don't want Digimon to be the same as Pokémon where there's just too much to keep up with. I don't think a photo realistic Digimon would be good. As long as it has its own style I think it's fine. Only reason why we had a lot of Digimon games back in the day is because development costs weren't like how they are now including reusing assets from other Digimon games speeding up dev time. They reused models for the PS1 and PSP games including reusing models in the recent games. For the DS titles they reused the sprite work for nearly all the games that were released for the system. As a fan of both Pokémon and Digimon since the 90s I'm very disappointed with Pokémon in recent years. Digimon had always done its own thing and it should stay that way. I don't want a new game in the same frequency as Pokémon. I'd much rather them release a game whenever they want.
You bring up great points, but the problem is their actions are multifaceted. The lack of games, at this point, barley equates to anything positive besides a lack of care/trust/confidence in the IP.
I'm usually the first to white knight companies for no good reason, but they've shown me enough to understand they don't see the digimon IPnas valuable as we do.
...my point being tbh, Digimon will never output to the same capacity as pokemon - they can't. Not many companies (if any?) can even keep up...so I'm not worried about that at all for now
We'll see what happens moving forward after this next Story game. To your point about reusing assets I think that's exactly what this next story games purpose is for....to get assets to a base that will last them years so development doesn't take as long
I typed up a story...I apologize 🙇🏾♂️
daddy Jam
🥰
hmmmmmm all true
i love to see some digimon competitive fighting game like dbfz or gundam vs gundam
Only few digimon games id say are good… solid at most
What they really need is a new game that releases a fuck ton of new digimon. They don't need new games, they need new digimon, thats the real secret to pokemons success.
Considering the budget for Digimon games are way less than Pokemon, they just need to design new monsters. A new Story game with like 120 new digimon would be cool. Have like 500 digimon total and it looks tales arise level pretty. It's Bandai. It's so doable!!! (Also maybe let us be in the digital world longer than in cyber sleuth)
Lowkey, this is exactly what they're doing. They're bolstering the number of Digimon models so they can then start releasing games more often...so things are looking up👀
From my experience playing Digimon games.
It feels kinda weird people keep saying Cyber Sleuth is like really great modern Digimon game but even though I like it I don't think it's great. It's good yea but not that good. I feel like I am bored for a lot of the time after I graduate from early game. The same can be said for Hacker's memory.
Now weirdly playing Next Order, I have a lot of fun...A lot more fun than Cyber Sleuth and Hacker's memory. Even though I am doing basically the same thing. Only way I can think of that can explain this is that they have different way of making us do it that just clicks with me more. Despite doing the same thing, but one is boring and one is not, this is not contradiction as it is not done in the same sense.
So then I keep wondering why...In what Sense does Digimon Next Order do better in my opinion compared to Cyber Sleuth? It definitely does, in a sense that it is better for my preference, not better objectively for everyone. But how does it do it?
And I remember that the reason I even into Digimon in the first place was Digimon world's way of raising the pets. I felt the same excitement and joy in World DS, Re:Digitize and Next Order...Because they give more emphasis in raising the digimon compared to Cyber Sleuth and Hacker's memory. Hell I finish Re:Digitize one time and I still remember fondly when I make my digimon block that punching machine, and I finish Hacker's Memory once and Cyber Sleuth twice and I barely remember anything about them. Re:Digitize is also older and I play it before Cyber Sleuth. Although I also barely remember anything about Digimon World since its so long ago.
This also makes me remember that while I like Dusk and Dawn, I don't consider it as great as other people say about it. And I am glad that I can find some people who share my sentiment from time to time. And I never actually finish Dusk and Dawn so maybe my opinion isn't entirely fair.
Don't get me wrong I enjoy all Digimon game I played, but I would love it if Digimon just stays a pet raising game instead of trying to copy other games like pokemon, which is more like catching monster game, and other rpg, like the Digimon Survive. Each Digimon game feels like it stray far too much from each other :/
I might lose interest in this series if we dont get anything by next year...
Great video, best digimon game content creator. Truly wish we get something like "The Digimon Company", as you said. btw LoL when you said "imaginary mmo"
Top tier music choices and great video!
Good shit bro, been watching you for a minute now, glad I found you.
My favorite digimon game is digimon world 3, that's the perfect experience for me.
2nd is hackers memory but that also wasn't that optimized far as qol and had those dumb domination battles that made me put the game in the trash...
the creature rancher thing isn't really for me, but that's also the problem like you said, when you say digimon game that's like 5 different things.
haha "being a digimon fan is suffering"
I want a rearise relaunch😢
Bro high as fuk….digimon fire tho needs more love.
I honestly don't get why they don't at least port more games to Steam. Like damn, at least give us Re:Digitize and maybe a Digimon World PSX collection with minor QoL improvements like sound controls and higher running speed.
DS games in hindsight are evil bruh...the dual screens complicates porting so much
I dont get the Next 0rder hate. I haven't played the original World, but I can't imagine it has the quality of life and enjoyment of Next 0rder. Like, MOD Cape's music alone makes the game at lesst decent. It has problems, but I doubt they're issues the original World doesnt have. It just felt like a good modern World game.
Survive I would say is good, but more niche and harder to recommend because it is a VN. I can definitely agree that while Cyber Sleuth/Hacker's Memory are great, they are very flawed on revisit.
The lack of consistency really does hurt. Seekers is cool, but it sucks not having an anime and not knowing when the next game will be coming either. Even another port would be better than nothing in the meantime.
The only consistency really is the card game, which I enjoy collecting because the art is great, but it can be expensive and not easy to play locally.
it's honestly batshit crazy the discrepancies between World 1 and Next Order. Both have jank mechanics and need polish, but there's a few areas World 1 does better that makes it more fun to play.
And then the more you play and get into World 1...only then can you truly see what we're talking about. It's honestly hard to put in words but World 1 has so much more "life" to it
I love this man!
Yo bro, when r u gonna b dropping merch again, i missed my chance to cop the courage shirt before.
We're cooking up something for the winter stay tuned💯
We have to consider one additional thing: Pokémon has spread SO much in terms of UI, game play, platforms, etc. that Digimon developer surely sit there like: “They mastered the round-based game play, they have the Birds Eye’s-walking style since X years and they have even Go now. What kind of gameplay is still left for us?”
I mean..try to invent something around THAT 😐
But I still love ALL Digimon Worlds (except for part 2, I hate Dungeon Crawlers)
Maybe a mix of Digimon World with first-person gameplay (like in Dragonball) would be a thing 🤔
With the option to play Digimon Tournaments with side-view like in Street Fighter/Tekken 🤓
And an updated version of the TCG, like in Yugioh
I’d call it Digimon World - Digital Masters
I think, the only way to stand out for Digimon will be to top everyone in their mastery, but idk I’m frustrated at this point, since I still play Digimon World with that back-in-the-days-quality 🥹✌🏽
Well...this isn't an issue - Digimon games have their own unique touch. What does need to happen is the quality needs to go up as a means to stand out
they playing redigitize decoded too in english and Im like I want to play it! 😢 I need me a new digimon game man or access to the old ones
Citra Emulator and 3DS English Patch
@@forteexe1335 man I am not tech/emulator savy 😭 I was trying to find it but had little to no luck finding it. I need someone to email me them programs so I can play it on my pc
Honestly the latest bigest win for digimon wasn't even in the digital format it's the card game.
it's easy to say raise the investments, but the profit isn't there to go ham with it, that's the unfortunate reality for real.
profit is iffy so the company can't feel safe publishing something that won't sell well that's it.
Why is profit iffy?
Regardless, they have an established, long running audience brother. Business 101 means that you can’t make more money without investing.
Investing time, money, etc. is the only way for growth. They've seen profits - they wouldn't announce that multiple digimon games are in the works if Digimon wasn't profitable.
It's about gradually increasing the investments each time, we don't go from 0 to 100
@@Jamm3r bruh digimon is a niche, survive hasn't sold not even close to a million copies, people liked the game sure, but with today's dev costs I would be surprised if they broke even, the company doesn't want that scenario, it's playing with big money at that point.
Survive is actually an interesting case. 500k copies in like 2 months?
For a genre nobody in the world asked Digimon to do? Habu knew that. Digimon is niche mainly in the sense that its not as popular, but iirc its a 6 billion dollar IP...
Point being this...
1. Survive sold well for the role it was supposed to play. They did not have high expectations
2. The fact they even made the game shows their level of flexibility and size of the IP...they CAN take risks and do random shit.
Digimon is basically a self sustainable IP, hence why Bandai is reluctant to invest more. Survive's whole purpose was to be a side game - its not a good metric to base opinions on.
And in reality we have yet to truly see what Digimon is capable. CS and Next Order don't count being handheld native games.
I have a hunch things will turn around...habu says multiple games in the works and it almost shouldn't include Story since hes acknowledged it time and time again
They have a structure and set teams to begin outputting more consistently...we'll see how things develop
When I think back to how many DS games we got? Like 4 or 5, I know 2 more were Japan exclusive. That was good eating. And it was a formula. The games felt the same, which sucks because I like how Digimon can change their style all the time, but it was a level of consistency and improvement we never got before or after. From Digimon World DS to even Digimon Championship.
Exactly, well put. It's a blessing and a curse, but overall we could get back to that level of consistency while they do their typical unique takes on the side. Combine those two and we could easily grow steadily
Digimon Story Lost Evolution and digimon story super xors wars red and blue
I just want a good game man. Like, Cyber Sleuth was alright. game was easy as fuck until you decided to fight the optional side bosses, and it does nothing to help you with figuring out strats outside of "Just waste your time and prolly still fail" I get that they are super bosses, but ANY of the hard fights that Pokemon has had, you know EXACTLY how to start building a team, and what kind of moves that pokemon will likely know.
With Digimon, we are lucky to get two games back to back that are even the same fucking genre, and by the time we get back around to something like a JRPG, its suuuuuuuper dated as fuck compared to ANYTHING in the market.
I'd LOVE for them to just pick to a genre of game, even if its something I dont care for, like a tatics/Fire Emblem game, and just make games and get better at it.....THEN maybe make a mystery dungeon or digimon snap or some spinoff shit once you have ONE genre DOWN PAT.
And this is all BEFORE watching the video, but sorry I gotta rant this shit gets me so heated bro. People are starting to get tired of the pokemon formula now, but atleast that shit took 30 years before it started getting stale and they had to try new things. Digimon has been trying different shit from day ONE and it still doesent know if it wants to be a trading card franchise, Anime franchise, video game franchise, FUCKING FITBITS???! ect and its been 24 fucking years, you THINK they would have SOME idea of what they want by now.
The games are just so shallow whenever they make a game, to use cyber sleuth again.... Elemental single target skill, aoe elemental single target skill, signature skill, and items as spells (Cures, revives, status cure/stat ups). AND THATS IT. The biggest deciding factor of using a digimon is thei SIGNATURE SKILL, fuck all the other shit. Now sure it can be like that in pokemon, but theres more than like, the one water single target skill, the one aoe water skill. You have water type pokemon that cant learn all of the water type moves.
Imagine the pokemon you could make if they had the CS evolution mechanic: can de evolve, cross species evolve, keep all learned moves to customize it, and pick like 10 of them..... now do the same for a digimon in CS: all of the highest elemental single target moves, typeless aoe move, the best stat boosting moves, a full heal, and a signature move that probably out damages all of the other dmging moves you own
While I do agree with most of what you said (especially CS basically just boiling down to signature moves), one part I disagree with is the idea that Pokemon teaches you how to play the game or in any way prepares you for postgame. In Pokemon, you just overlevel your starter and whatever other pokemon you like, then put a bunch of high damage moves on them. Meanwhile, the battle facilities and online are using EVs, IVs, competetive strats, and all kinds of other stuff that the main game never tells you about. Like, the closest they get is Raihan having a weather team in SwSh, but even then, you can just brute force him without thinking too much about team comp or strategy.
@@s3studios597 While it doesent fully prepare you for an endgame challenge like the frontiers or online, it doesent leave you completely in the dark either. It shows you the VAST majority of pokemon throughout the game so you know their typings and general moves before team building.
The newer games make EV's more accessible and known, but the older games were semi vague with it all, true. But they still mentioned it in the way of vitamins and the held items that raised them faster when held, they just had a very "Sink or swim bitch" way about it lol
Yes, exactly this. When I played Cyber Sleuth, I felt two things very strongly: boredom from the difficulty and blandness from how cookie cutter the moves were (I even finished getting my ideal team way ahead of time simply by grinding). Most moves in the game were "specific damage, specific range, copypaste in every flavor of the rainbow". I had much more fun playing Digimon Savers: Another Mission since the moves were more or less set per digimon and I had to figure out if I could take an enemy out in my current form or I had to digivolve for a new moveset.
I agree and disagree with needing a solid identity. Specifically, I agree that there should be a line of games that creates consistency in terms of the very basics of digimon and what to expect from digimon games (i.e. franchise tropes). Meanwhile, I don't that all the games shouldn't be wildly different from one another. I think that's part of the identity as a digital world since data is constantly changing whether it is being rewritten or overwritten. But that's where that piece of consistency comes in, it'll makes it easier to navigate various types of games if the baseline is set (ex: these are the element types, these are how they interact with each other, this is how to digivolve into this digimon, etc.).
Jam is losing it 😭
I've had enough
Insightful vid Jamm3r. Honestly I'm feeling distant from digimon for years now you and some friends are keeping me around here.
Well what ticks me is me that the recent good stuff have big ass cons.
Digimon Rearise the game with the best cast and an actual good story is trapped in dead garbage mobile game. This should've been the anime we got. Not reboot not ghost game.
Digimon Survive the best theme, lots of cool ideas, back to the good old daring digimon game philosophy but poor production. Even the amazing art of Uiti Ukumo got rushed look at the later NPCs it wasn't on par on the polish of the other character portraits. The battle system was simplistic but it was passable if only you have more options like more skills for each digimon. Also it's a bad VN. The title has Survive but doesn't have pitfall endings. Shitty free time events. Poor backtracking to experience the entirety of the multifaceted story. That too is lacking because it only ever properly diverge on ch8. I love LOVE its ideas but the complete package is below average.
Sorry Jamm3r I just feel like letting out my disappointment with the series. I love the series for its potential but it's been years lol. Not everyone can wait. Even DW1 my fave entry feels like the devs just lucked out and randomly hit gold (tho unpolished still)
I wouldn't mind another rumble arena if they handle it right then it could become something that top smash bros
Unbelievable amount of potential there
@@Jamm3r or something like fighters z they could change the game let's send emails and make it happen lol
The problem with the games is that there aren't many of them. They are by and far, way better then Pokemon. Not from a fan boy perspective, but from an actual gamer perspective.They have some clunky bits, but are as a whole, way better.
But see, problem is, Bandai doesn't care. Back when I way a One Piece fan, before it became shit and a Gay Stu, plot armor garbage story, and was actively following it, One Piece games, the amount released, you can count on like one hand. Whereas, compare it to Drragon Ball and Nauto, the amount of games can't even compare. Hell, One Piece is the king of manga, there is no comparing considering how many copies of the manga it sold. But the amount of games and really, other spin-off stuff, doesn't even compare.
It's like nobody cares. Now take Digimon, a profitable fanchise with billions in sales at least, and it gets barely any effort put into it. Barely any marketing for it's new stuff and things like novels, shows and the likes are all barely there and low quality.
Digimon has a shit ton of problems and those problems are called Bandai.
The quality of Digimon recently has been low across the board. From the toys, to anime, to the video games. Some people are even saying the card game is dying too because the events are mismanaged. I can't tell if Bandai doesn't pioritize Digimon, or if theyre incompetent.
Card game hype 100% did die down....but I was in the field doing some research and, basically what I say in the video, while the hype is down we're still like...3rd most popular card game.
So much potential...
Of course Digimon is lower priority. It has to contend with Tokusatsu shows and Gundam (things that are practically solidly part of japanese culture) on one end, and the hottest anime shows on the other end. Both ends will make Bamco big money reliably but Digimon won't because it isn't either one.
First, preach homie.
Secondly, I hate saying it but there is no easy fix for digimon games. The easiest fix is bandai is denied any money till they fix the games.... sadly that won't happen outside of me and requires everyone to agree to maintain that stance and be very vocal about why until the games are better😮💨. So the harder options are all that's left. Buying out bandai, or hoping whoever takes over bandai in who knows how many years in the future... all of those are far less likely to make any positive change and will take quite a long time
Good luck trying to buy Bandai. Remember that Bandai bought Namco, not the other way around. There's no way they'll be in any position to be bought with Gundam, Tokusatsu, and popular anime tie-ups fueling them. Digimon is up against really well established things (Tokusatsu, Gundam, etc.) and stuff that's hot right now (all those anime tie-ups, etc.). It makes small beans compared to both so it's obviously going to be a lesser priority until it can prove it can bring in those big numbers consistently. Digimon is not reliable for them in that aspect. It's more or less the same way Capcom treats Mega Man but for very different reasons.
@@nicodalusong149 one of too many countless reasons why I led with there is no easy fix and specified that buying bandai is a hard method. Thanks for adding the reasons for why it would be immensely hard mate, much appreciated 👍.
There's so much bandai can do and should do with Digimon. They're playing it too safe, they're doing the same with the vpets which is where they started. They keep doing releases of the originals, while their tamagotchi IP have vastly more features. They could absolutely make an amazing Digimon Vpet.
With the games? Yeah I agree, but I think a Digimon world like game should be their bread and butter game they release every few years while having interesting, experimental games in between the large releases.
Not really in reality , bandai is just too cheap to give digimon money instead it rather fund dragonball or sao
Hey Jam, a bit off topic, but i ordered a kg crew neck like two months ago and i still don't have it. Whats going on? Ps. I used a different email account to buy it than the one i'm using on here
What email did you use? Do you have twitter to DM me or something?
I know everyone else received their items within a week or 2
besides their fanbase
Gimme more next order or world 1 games please is really my only ask lol
i bought the last game and it was not mine . that what i dont Want a digimon game to be. if someone likes this type of games okay ,but not in the digimon franch. The next game should be a fusion between the og digimon world 1 and digimon rumble arena to make the fighting mode a little bit more interesting. DW1 is still the best game and a kind of new game like this with better grafics and the same style would be very good . Variants are good but i think a good base is better . Personally that would be the best option for me.
Which game did you play? Cyber Sleuth?
the last new digimon game i played was digimon survive, but i played cyber sleuth too was fine.@@Jamm3r
Damn I forgot about Survive 💀
Bandai focus on quick money grab man and that's sad, with gachas and all that
You digivolve Digimon to battle other Digimon.
bandai namco taking all this time to make a triple aaa digimon game for it to still sell less than scarlet and violet 😆
🥲🥲
GIVE ME REMASTERED DIGIMON WORLD 1, 3 AND I SWEAR ILL NEVER COMPLAIN AGAIN.
Also remastered Dusk/Dawn on Switch would be GAS.
bandai put way more care in to making new pokemon snap and the DLC that came soon after than they have in any digimon game ever. I think the most important thing for a game is making great replability and thats something pokemon has done pretty well. if you are in to breeding for stats you can do that, if you want to shiy hunt you can do that, if you want to spam raids you can do that. there is also the post game aspect of pokemon games. some are meh but others are pretty damn cool. I think digimons issue is that it is not as flexible in the same aspects that pokemon is. there arent any shiny digimon and i dont think digimon has things like raid dens and i am not sure about the post games when it comes to the digimon games. dont even get me started o competive pokemon and digimon games either lol.
It's why I push the PVP agenda when it comes to Digimon games. The robust story is appreciated by some, but we need a middle ground.
The nature of monster taming promotes a lot of "self-play". They can bombard us with story - I'm cool with that...but control it...and then focus on post game content we can do with the dream team we just created
This is really targeted at the Story style games
Dawg you almost got skipped lmao. Intro way too long
I get it, this was a passion project tho

I mean yeah pokemon released alot between digimon games but the pkmn games sucked ass. To the point where nintendo would give u ur money back for scarlet and violet lmaoo
too complex.. make it simple.. at least digimon survive is enjoyable
What about Yo-kai watch? The only good digimon game is (and digimon world 3) cyber sleuth lol
Nevermind...
Have yet to play any of them jawns
Ok. Use an emulator lol
Make a short about Kotemon or Zubamon? Mostly Zubamon
They should listen the community cause soon enough we gonna be too old and tired too play digimon game and there no new génération to be real . So make a digimon wolrd 2003 with more digimon and with a intuitifs story line that doesnt ask for a guide
When has Digimon done better? I'm sorry I love Digimon but asking something out of a company that you've never had just seems pretentious.
So, companies are meant to stay stagnant?
And they have done better - their first game Digimon World was amazing and far ahead of its time.
They've produced countless good products that fall short in certain areas but still are fun; overall its clear they don't get the same level of investment as other Bandai IPs.
Also, what am I even asking lmao. For games? Is that asking for too much??? 🥲
