The Palette Swaps of digimons like ModokiBetamon and Aruramon were originally created FOR Digimon World 1. They were probably put in the game as enemy-only digimon, exactly like they were in DW1, as they needed to fill the world with enemies, but also wanted the recruitable digimon to be as unique within the game as possible. So when they changed the game's systems into what DW2 became, those mons were dummied out. Btw most of those digimon are now more officially recognized even though they originated as World exclusives.
18:32 Little fun trivia here, DW3 original was developed to be DW2 but it was taking a lot of time to complete and Bandai wanted to push a new game for next year. They kep the dungeon aspect but they kept the models from DW1 to save time and they kept the Dungeon Aspect of it. Thus the then DW2 was postpone and kept working on it and released it next year as DW3, thats why you found that artstyle in DW2. Also if you dig real deep in the web you can find a PS Magazine with promotional pictures of early DW2 build, the battle style and model build is the exact same we got in DW3. Digibeetle rides away*
Randomly found this in my recommended, and I’m honestly shocked this channel hasn’t gotten more traction yet. It’s really well scripted, and the editing is solid. Good video!
Regarding the "Pinnacle" Digimon teams featuring Omnimon/Diaboromon/Baihumon with two Ultimates, the modding community found out that they were a cut boss fight. The Guardian Boss fight was suppose to play out similar to the GAIA fight where the team of 3 digimon was sent out to battle you the player before you faced the Guardian as a boss.
The interrupt bugs can be made not only with Chrono breaker, but with V-Myotismon's interrupt Venom Infusion. You can use this trick to activate strong counter attacks, like Smiley Warhead.
Funny thing is that last glitch about catching other people's digimon happened to me as a kid but i never knew why it happened. Now many years my mind finally be at peace.
Regarding Kimeramon ,there's a mod for the game called Digimon World 2 Alternative that re introduces Kimeramon and all those other unobtainable mons into the game. It's such a fantastic mod
@@zeroattentiongaming820 I know, right! 🤧 I made a whole video specifically about Kimeramon a little while ago, and I do mention the English guide in that vid. Even the people who made the guide just followed and repeated internet rumours 😭.
5:26 All recolors introduced in the first game. Speaking of, I wonder if Rebellimon and Titanmon will ever get recolors so Shamamon and SnowGoburimon can have full lines? (aside from baby digimon forms which are often excluded from full lines, Goburimon doesn't have any proper baby forms either after all) maybe their megas could be Shutdendoumon (with Fugamon being based on oni as opposed to Ogremon being based on western ogres) and Jotumon (Shuten-Douji and the jötunn being godlike evil beings of mythology) ?
All of the Missing Digimon are from World 1, I'm pretty sure they just imported the Digimon but didn't find any use nor made any special moves for them, so they were dummied out~
I've been running into a lot of these attack glitches as I've been playing through the DW 2 Alternative mod and wasn't sure if they were base-game glitches or specific to the mod's coding. Fun to hear that they're from the base game! Funny thing with the BUG Domain glitch, there's a similar one that can happen in RAM Domain even if you don't do any sort of sequence breaking where the Blood Knight that has a Boltmon will continue to spawn into the domain even after completion. I've never tried to recruit it myself because I assumed it wouldn't work, but apparently you can do the same thing and take Digimon from his team.
In theory,you can catch any number of Metalgreymons you want as long you are a Vaccine Tamer. You just need to be lucky that the RNG decides that he wants to join. He's far away enough to at least gain a tiny heart.
I suppose it is possible. But without using an emulator and save states, it would be quite heartbreaking to try catching it without a Toyplane, with all the RNG involved 😅.
Not gonna lie, I always join the vaccine team because the RNG is not as bad as it seems and the experience gained from the failed attempts is decent for that part of the game.
@@CrystalPapaI used to do this in my og ps1. If you start with the gold team, by the time you reach him, you are able to buy B level gift items for vaccine digimons. Every time I replay dw2, I always go gold tamers and catch multiple metalgreymons.
a powerful bug that happened with me, using wizardmon counter, he was interrupted by a damage interrupt, so wizardmon atk become counter (it was not activated before) then his atk become full party atk and everyone become paralyzed until the end of the fight (much more than the 3 turns it take to cure it).
Yeah, this happens the same way as the Dark Shot from SkullGreymon. All attacks that are "random enemy", can be activated this way with chrono breaker or venom infusion interrupt attacks. Here a list of attacks you can reproduce this glitch: - Dark Shot (SkullGreymon) - Musical Fist (ShogunGekomon) - Necro Magic (Soulmon) - Ocean Love (Marine Angemon) - S-Thunder Smack (Elecmon) - Super Shocker (Tentomon) - Thunder Ball (Wizardmon)
The algorithm is pushing your content again bro. I've never played any of these games but I was a 90s kid who used to watch Digimon, and I love lost/cut/unused content and glitches in games so I'm here for that content.
Regarding the Chrono Breaker stuff, while my memories of playing DW2 as a kid are admittedly a bit hazy, I DO seem to recall there being attacks that did indeed function differently if they went last in the turn as opposed to before another Digimon. So I think that perhaps it's not so much a glitch with the attacks that interact oddly with Chrono Breaker (except for HerculesKabuterimon's Interrupt skill, that's DEFINITELY unintentional), but rather it's just you usually won't get to see the 'going last' variation of these attacks without the use of Chrono Breaker to force the user of that attack to go last in the turn. Then again, like I said, my memory's a bit hazy, so I might also just be talking out my bum here.
Fyi for herculeskabuterimon its just his moveset that he didnt want to attack cause he used interrupted skill than attack skill (super shocker) . Same case as the other digimons that have interrupted skills such as clockmon, megakabuterimon, garudamon, etc. If we didnt use attack/support skills or triggering counterattacks than regular attacks they will cancel the interrupt skills.
I encountered the sequence break glitch, but in RAM Domain. I auto-piloted at floor 15, after defeating BK commander 1 at floor 7 and BK commander 2 at floor 12 in one run. In every subsequent run in RAM domain after that, the 2nd BK commander kept appearing at floor 12 as a wild catchable tank. It was a pretty good exp farm at that point in the game.
Not sure if it would count as a glitch or not, but there are some specific DNA Digivolutions that just completely throw all of its (hidden) rules out the window. The only one I remember finding on my own was Cherrymon + MetalGreymon resulting in...Vademon.
there's also a few other "trap" DNAs you can do. some making the dreaded Extyrannomon or Yanmamon. none of these guys are able to digivolve making them traps in my opinion.
Oh my god. I can just barely recall this game from from childhood and always couldnt quite remember what it was! As soon as i saw the vehicle area a massive wave of memories came rushing back in
This just got Recomended. Good video. I love Digimon world 2. Even with its flaws. Last year, I played a mod version with some cool changed. It also allows you to obtain kimeramon.
I am glad you enjoyed the video! 😊 I have heard about the Mod, but haven't gotten around to actually playing it myself yet. Might have to do that soon!
Oh Venom infusion. the most powerful interrupt move in the game. It can: prevent moves from happening even even assist, can cause all the shenanigans chrono breaker does, and can freeze the whole game. I was playing with it in one of my runs testing it out. i think i tired to prevent a revival move when it broke my game and caused me to lose 6hours of grinding... after that i just switched to only using gigascissor claw which has a 50% chance make an attack miss
Honestly, while Digimon world 1 has a way more special place for me, being one of my favorite games despite the jank. 2 has left a mark, I actually lean to virus types and that started with Black Sword. I'd kinda enjoy hearing you do a break down of the DW2 alternative mod.
I do plan on playing the mod at some point, but I was thinking of covering some other Digimon games first. I'll definitely get to the Mod eventually, though! :D
@@CrystalPapa Understandable, you got 2 vids on World 2, and while it has charm with it's named attacks, flexible move interhertances, cool Digibettle, and neat team structure, we all know it's grindy and on the lower end of Digimon games. I may have a soft spot for it, but I FOR SURE prefer any future Digimon World games to take inperation from the first, as that's the one that has a more unquie feel. Now if only they could make one where the models feel less sterile, and manage to capture the life of the PS1 era xD
@@CrystalPapa Finished that recently. Great mod. So many changes that does not alienate dw2, but makes it even better. It is now my definitive dw2 if I want to replay dw series again.
How do you sequence break in Digimon World 2? I can't find any info on this, seems like DW2 has a very tiny fan community. Appreciate you making content on this game, I know it's not the most popular, but it was always my favorite by a long shot. Guess I am just a sucker for turn-based combat and long dungeon slogs.
I would love a Remaster or a Remake of the good old classic Digimon World 1, 2 and 3. I was the black sheep in the family and these games what kept me from feeling lonely in my own house. I was a weird kid and understandably so, my family wouldn't know what to do with me. So my mother gave me a PSX and I fell in love with these games. It's like that one meme where a kid tries to do something and was scolded for different reasons but when they played a game, the game complimented them. Saying we did good. I love these games.
I always though Shadow Scythe additional was intended, even listening to the voice acting: "Soul Chopper" (Japanese name) "mo ichido Soul Chopper" (One more time Soul Chopper) The interrupt one really looks like a glitch tho, lmao
24:02 Super Shocker is a random target move, and considering those attacks use the same animation for the party target attacks there is a possibility both of those type of moves are in the same coding thread. I don't know exactly what Chrono Breaker does to the coding of the game when executed, but somehow it mixes up the else_if's I guess lol Same thing for Necro magic, as it targets the standing digimon instead of the fainted ones. This game probably has a lot of Potato coding we don't know about. Wonder if anyone tried to reverse engineer it.
People act like the alternative mod completely fixes the issues with the game and I'd like to know how true that is. If you aren't burnt out on this game yet, I would be happy to watch a video of your thoughts on the changes
Regarding the Missing Digimon and DNA Evolution, I believe their level may be set to a value above Ultimate or Super Ultimate, but is currently unused. Either that or it's set to 0/-1 (depending on the integer type) which is sometimes read as "Infinite" in some integer formats, and whatever algorithm is doing DNA Digivolution is probably hitting some sort of number clamp, achieving the same effect.
Ahhh. Chimeramon, also known as pain and suffering.. :) I went through Terra domain minimally a dozen times. However, it was probably many more than that trying to capture it after reading the players' guide and being given the hint. It is noted that it's on the floor (I believe if even says 99) Great video. :D I will watch the actual chimeramon episode tomorrow, haha. Keep up the great work!
fun fact about bug bug domain, if u did ram > crimson > chief rank > unlock kernel > back to bug u can get any digimon from the bosses like boltmon in ram domain
5:10 - These are the "generic enemy" forms of Digimon we see in Digimon World 1. Modoki means fake, by the way. XD 21:07 - If memory serves, Necro Magic can only absorb MP from a Stunned enemy Digimon once. If I had to guess, its MP absorb drops the target's MP to 0. A way to test this is to have a party member be Stunned and see if Necro Magic drops its MP to 0. Then again, the glitched version didn't drop your party's MP, at all. So, perhaps, the game sets a flag on the Digimon to indicate that Necro Magic cannot affect it anymore? Very odd, if that's the case. 22:00 - I actually had something similar happen when using Cheat Engine. For what I did, I had a party member prepare a tech that would visually indicate targeting all enemies (be it an Party-Wide Attack or a Random Targeting), then swapped the value of the tech for a different one. So, for our example, let's say prepare Tentomon's Super Shocker, then modify the tech to becomes something hilarious, like WarGreymon's Terra Force. This results in a Terra Force that hits all enemies. My guess is that the game saves the targeting, but the move itself determines whether it's a random attack or a party-wide attack. That being said, the game also stores the tech type (Attack, Counterattack, Interrupt, or Assist). So, have fun with your Counterattack or Interrupt Duo Scissor Claw. Also, if you prepare Re-Initialize, Re-Format, or Banana Slip, then change it into something that actually deals damage, like Pulse Blast or Tidal Wave, it should bypass Counterattacks, because the enemy was hit by what the game reads as an Assist move. 25:32 - The regular version says "Shadow Chopper", while the special version says "Mouichido Chopper", which roughly translates to "One-More-Time Chopper". The game has them coded as two separate moves. If I had to guess, the game reads the condition that Apemon WOULD have been Stunned by Shadow Scythe prior to being Interrupted and stored "One-More-Time Chopper" as the next move in the queue. So, it was used, instead, and targeted a random enemy. However, because the game knows that Machinedramon should have made two attacks (Shadow Chopper, then One-More-Time Chopper), you ended up with two One-More-Time Choppers. 28:46 - I remember doing this a lot as a kid. That was how I was able to repeatedly get the most pathetic WarGreymons ever, because the BIOS MetalGreymon has horrid stats, especially for an Ultimate. XD
That is some really interesting info! Interrupt Duo Scissors Claw just sounds unholy to me 😂. And yeah, the Metalgreymons might have terrible stats, but at least they can make for quick DNA DV fodder 😅.
Part of me wants to see a mod where Omnimon, Diaboromon, and Baihumon make up the game's true final challenge, a grueling Superboss against the strongest Digimon of every type.
Ah pocketstation shennanigans, haunted me during final fantasy viii days too, but at least when they releases pc version they included the pocketstation program with it so nobody would feel left behind. Unfortunately FF VIII was probably the only game that was lucky enough to get that treatment, other imported games with pocket station functionality never gave oversea players chance to experience it.
There is definitely not enough of this kind of content with Digimon games on RUclips so I’ve been enjoying these videos quite a bit. Personally I wouldn’t say they were inspired by Pokemon having different versions, but the fact that Digimon vpets have different versions where you can raise different Digimon. Kinda like the way you raise Kimeramon to transfer is also inspired by the Digimon vpets. As always, gotta keep their roots! As for why the palette swaps Digimon were scrapped, I think all those are Digimon World exclusive Digimon that don’t even exist in any vpets. They probably scrapped them to replace them with actual Digimon people would be familiar with.
The bug domain is activated as a mission together with another domain. If you finish the other domain first, the story goes forward with the NeoCrimson and GAIA stories and bug just stays as a hotspot. You can visit it before the final boss multiple times, iirc the hotspot will never go away even if you go through it completely. Not to mention it will stay like this even after unlocking Terra. I did it unintentionally on my first playthrough lol
The favoritism to Agumon has some backing even in the anime. In the first episode of Digimon Tamers, Takato Matsuki stated while drawing Guilmon that he'd be stronger than Agumon.
The thing with the Necromagic is that it can only be used once per Target. If all currently fallen Targets were previously targeted by it during current Battle, then the execution will always fail. This is the intended effect, though nothing in the UI actually tells player about it.
Side note: During the time of these games, the US had a law in place for media. You cannot use religioius references in media. Which is why these few abilities were not allowed to be in the English version. ESPECIALLY Paradise Lost(It's religious and copy-right protected bc of the book.)
Man I need to play Digimon world 2 again. I just found u through this video but checking Ur videos I see Digimon world 2 challenge run so I am insta subbing.
Guide you do realize Modokibetamon was literally the second enemy you’d see in DW1, it’s the same model check if you don’t believe, in fact all these missing digimon came from the first games files except for Kimerimon
Did you know that there is also dungeon model for those three 20 DP mega digimon but remaining unused along with portrait, move, and their encounter database? If only alternative mod utilizing those then this would be completed as whole
I was just talking about this game with a friend the other day, she never played it and she wanted to give it a try, I told her I played it when I was a kid and it was a grind nightmare. She still tried it and ended up not liking it 🤣 Imma give her a surprise with the sequence breaks lol
Suddenly this recommendation video pop up and I'm not mad about it. Great video man! That Bug Domain glitch happen into me once alright. It never indicate which Domain I should do first, ended up doing the other. Then the storyline progress after I've complete the domain made me thinking did I miss something? Was I supposed to do Bug Domain first? Then I revisit the Bug Domain. All the enemy is still there not moving. Surprisingly I can capture their digimon like said in the video. Which at this point I think this is definitely a glitch! Did you know that you can obtain V-mon, Flamedramon, Lightdramon and Imperialdramon/ I-Dramon Dragon Mode in the game? I remember getting V-Mon by DNA Digivolving with Greymon and Airdramon. I-Dramon also looks incomplete missing his lower part of his armor as far I remember.
I am glad you enjoyed the video, edrayed! Yes, I am aware of the Veemon line, but tbh I've never made the effort to get them, cause of all the grinding involved 😅.
Surprised you missed one, considering you covered the two relevant moves back to back; if you use Shadow Scythe on a Clockmon (or presumably any Digimon with Chrono Breaker) with low HP, and he uses Chrono Breaker, the game will crash when the party member that used Shadow Scythe's turn comes back around.
Digimon World 2 is a game I beat more that once, four times actually. Three times to have one for each Team and one to find all the Secrets I missed like dialogues and ways to get certain Digimon early. Also I really hate Return Bugs.
I never knew they have armor digimon and 4 digimon like Baihumon in the game, i guess they got more hidden contents, some people actually modding the game cuz the data was in the game
Don't know if anyone already said that but the digimon that are essencially color swaps of others have an in universe explanation, which is that they have a diferent atribute to them, and considering that the whole deal of digimon is that they grow into different things depending on how they are trained and what conditions they live in kinda makes sense, even if it is by deffinition just reusing designs And by atribute I mean like gabumon is normally a data type digimon and psyquemon is a virus type, those atributes work in a rock paper scissors logic Data overflows vaccine, vacines destroy virus and virus corrupts data
This even extends to some minor things such as what digimon on the overworld of the tamagochi style digimons want to fight you For example if you have an agumon the data digimon such as gabumon you want to fight you but a virus one wont cuz you have the upper hand in that case so they flee
Omg I watched this entire video without even realizing it was just uploaded 6 days ago 🤣 but man I've been waiting over a decade to see those 8 lost digimon in action in this game, shame they can't digivolve tho 😭
digimon was one of my favourite movies growing up i remember siting down infront of tv and not moving an inch because of some hype moments seeing someone make a video on it brings me joy even if it's a game that is based on it. great video man
This game is great; I've completed it a few times. However, it’s very annoying to play at normal speed. When I use an emulator, I always speed up the game because it’s insane how much time it takes just to enter a battle.
When you mentioned the Paradise Lost attack I though about Lucemon, because Paradise Lost is his signature attack. But when you mentioned that it was Diablomon's attack I was confused. That's because I simply don't care enough for the Digimon that are mostly connected to Adventure and tend to always think about their multiple incoherences.
Even I don't really understand why Diaboromon was given Paradise Lost, but I don't think the Dev team particularly cared all that much about this stuff 😅.
I did take a look after I saw your comment, Charlesman, but I couldn't find any other healing tech that cost 16 MP (which is what Omega Heal is supposed to cost). It might have been implemented in a different way, I suppose.

I was playing with it in one of my runs testing it out. i think i tired to prevent a revival move when it broke my game and caused me to lose 6hours of grinding... after that i just switched to only using gigascissor claw which has a 50% chance make an attack miss
DW2 is definitely my favourite old Digimon game
Subscribed! I really enjoy your content and your thoughts! Well explained and narrated, keep it up!
I am glad you enjoyed the video, Zerozeru! :D
Honestly, while Digimon world 1 has a way more special place for me, being one of my favorite games despite the jank. 2 has left a mark, I actually lean to virus types and that started with Black Sword. I'd kinda enjoy hearing you do a break down of the DW2 alternative mod.
I do plan on playing the mod at some point, but I was thinking of covering some other Digimon games first. I'll definitely get to the Mod eventually, though! :D
@@CrystalPapa Understandable, you got 2 vids on World 2, and while it has charm with it's named attacks, flexible move interhertances, cool Digibettle, and neat team structure, we all know it's grindy and on the lower end of Digimon games. I may have a soft spot for it, but I FOR SURE prefer any future Digimon World games to take inperation from the first, as that's the one that has a more unquie feel. Now if only they could make one where the models feel less sterile, and manage to capture the life of the PS1 era xD
@@CrystalPapa
Finished that recently. Great mod. So many changes that does not alienate dw2, but makes it even better. It is now my definitive dw2 if I want to replay dw series again.
I finished the game using all teams lol, I really have no life
How do you sequence break in Digimon World 2? I can't find any info on this, seems like DW2 has a very tiny fan community.
Appreciate you making content on this game, I know it's not the most popular, but it was always my favorite by a long shot. Guess I am just a sucker for turn-based combat and long dungeon slogs.
I would love a Remaster or a Remake of the good old classic Digimon World 1, 2 and 3. I was the black sheep in the family and these games what kept me from feeling lonely in my own house. I was a weird kid and understandably so, my family wouldn't know what to do with me. So my mother gave me a PSX and I fell in love with these games. It's like that one meme where a kid tries to do something and was scolded for different reasons but when they played a game, the game complimented them. Saying we did good. I love these games.
I always though Shadow Scythe additional was intended, even listening to the voice acting:
"Soul Chopper" (Japanese name)
"mo ichido Soul Chopper" (One more time Soul Chopper)
The interrupt one really looks like a glitch tho, lmao
Oh the actual follow-up attack definitely is intended, I am sure!
The glitch is pretty funny to me, tbh 😂.
24:02 Super Shocker is a random target move, and considering those attacks use the same animation for the party target attacks there is a possibility both of those type of moves are in the same coding thread. I don't know exactly what Chrono Breaker does to the coding of the game when executed, but somehow it mixes up the else_if's I guess lol
Same thing for Necro magic, as it targets the standing digimon instead of the fainted ones.
This game probably has a lot of Potato coding we don't know about. Wonder if anyone tried to reverse engineer it.
The dark shot glitch is just a glitch with random moves, works the same with Super shocker and necro magic
People act like the alternative mod completely fixes the issues with the game and I'd like to know how true that is. If you aren't burnt out on this game yet, I would be happy to watch a video of your thoughts on the changes
I heard it starts better, but it doesn't do much to fix the grind later on.
Regarding the Missing Digimon and DNA Evolution, I believe their level may be set to a value above Ultimate or Super Ultimate, but is currently unused. Either that or it's set to 0/-1 (depending on the integer type) which is sometimes read as "Infinite" in some integer formats, and whatever algorithm is doing DNA Digivolution is probably hitting some sort of number clamp, achieving the same effect.
Ahhh. Chimeramon, also known as pain and suffering.. :) I went through Terra domain minimally a dozen times. However, it was probably many more than that trying to capture it after reading the players' guide and being given the hint. It is noted that it's on the floor (I believe if even says 99)
Great video. :D I will watch the actual chimeramon episode tomorrow, haha. Keep up the great work!
Oh! The Pocket Digimon versions are divided by Digimon type (Vaccine, Data, and Virus) just like the real Virtual Pet toys.
fun fact about bug bug domain, if u did ram > crimson > chief rank > unlock kernel > back to bug u can get any digimon from the bosses like boltmon in ram domain
6:02 is this a real Pokémon game? Kinda looks like some alpha version of legends arceus or even the let’s go games
Loved this game. Playing a Digimon World 2 Alternative Mod rn and it's a blast. Highly recommend
Pervert Greymon Should've been Chaoswargreymon later on, my opinion only? Maybe, the truth, yes
That makes a lot of sense to me!
@@CrystalPapa imagine if he ended up becoming that boss out of spite for being weaker then you
28:25 when playing for this falcon, you can catch as many Metalgreymon as you want, so 3 gifts of level D are enough to give a small heart
good shit dood loving the digimon content, subscribed
yay, i found another digimon channel 😁. great video
I am glad you enjoyed the video, friend! 😇
Sad to hear you didn't like it, I genuinely loved this game. I had so much fun as a kid, was my first "roguelike"
That is why chrono breaker was called, its litterally breaks eveything haha
5:10 - These are the "generic enemy" forms of Digimon we see in Digimon World 1. Modoki means fake, by the way. XD
21:07 - If memory serves, Necro Magic can only absorb MP from a Stunned enemy Digimon once. If I had to guess, its MP absorb drops the target's MP to 0. A way to test this is to have a party member be Stunned and see if Necro Magic drops its MP to 0. Then again, the glitched version didn't drop your party's MP, at all. So, perhaps, the game sets a flag on the Digimon to indicate that Necro Magic cannot affect it anymore? Very odd, if that's the case.
22:00 - I actually had something similar happen when using Cheat Engine. For what I did, I had a party member prepare a tech that would visually indicate targeting all enemies (be it an Party-Wide Attack or a Random Targeting), then swapped the value of the tech for a different one. So, for our example, let's say prepare Tentomon's Super Shocker, then modify the tech to becomes something hilarious, like WarGreymon's Terra Force. This results in a Terra Force that hits all enemies. My guess is that the game saves the targeting, but the move itself determines whether it's a random attack or a party-wide attack. That being said, the game also stores the tech type (Attack, Counterattack, Interrupt, or Assist). So, have fun with your Counterattack or Interrupt Duo Scissor Claw. Also, if you prepare Re-Initialize, Re-Format, or Banana Slip, then change it into something that actually deals damage, like Pulse Blast or Tidal Wave, it should bypass Counterattacks, because the enemy was hit by what the game reads as an Assist move.
25:32 - The regular version says "Shadow Chopper", while the special version says "Mouichido Chopper", which roughly translates to "One-More-Time Chopper". The game has them coded as two separate moves. If I had to guess, the game reads the condition that Apemon WOULD have been Stunned by Shadow Scythe prior to being Interrupted and stored "One-More-Time Chopper" as the next move in the queue. So, it was used, instead, and targeted a random enemy. However, because the game knows that Machinedramon should have made two attacks (Shadow Chopper, then One-More-Time Chopper), you ended up with two One-More-Time Choppers.
28:46 - I remember doing this a lot as a kid. That was how I was able to repeatedly get the most pathetic WarGreymons ever, because the BIOS MetalGreymon has horrid stats, especially for an Ultimate. XD
That is some really interesting info! Interrupt Duo Scissors Claw just sounds unholy to me 😂.
And yeah, the Metalgreymons might have terrible stats, but at least they can make for quick DNA DV fodder 😅.
Part of me wants to see a mod where Omnimon, Diaboromon, and Baihumon make up the game's true final challenge, a grueling Superboss against the strongest Digimon of every type.
Great video man!
Ah pocketstation shennanigans, haunted me during final fantasy viii days too, but at least when they releases pc version they included the pocketstation program with it so nobody would feel left behind. Unfortunately FF VIII was probably the only game that was lucky enough to get that treatment, other imported games with pocket station functionality never gave oversea players chance to experience it.
There is definitely not enough of this kind of content with Digimon games on RUclips so I’ve been enjoying these videos quite a bit.
Personally I wouldn’t say they were inspired by Pokemon having different versions, but the fact that Digimon vpets have different versions where you can raise different Digimon. Kinda like the way you raise Kimeramon to transfer is also inspired by the Digimon vpets. As always, gotta keep their roots!
As for why the palette swaps Digimon were scrapped, I think all those are Digimon World exclusive Digimon that don’t even exist in any vpets. They probably scrapped them to replace them with actual Digimon people would be familiar with.
What domain and which part of story quest can we trigger the sequence break?
11:55 There was supposed to be a Tinmon boss battle? LOL!
This game is great. Althgough Cyber Sleuth have very similar battle mechanics, I would love a remake of World 2. The DNA Evolution is nice.
Where can I find how to sequence break as you mentioned? I know about the trick to get the Boss Boltmon, but not the Bug Domain one.
The bug domain is activated as a mission together with another domain. If you finish the other domain first, the story goes forward with the NeoCrimson and GAIA stories and bug just stays as a hotspot. You can visit it before the final boss multiple times, iirc the hotspot will never go away even if you go through it completely. Not to mention it will stay like this even after unlocking Terra.
I did it unintentionally on my first playthrough lol
Silent stalker. Saw this pop up in my feed. Good content.
Thanks, Bob! :D
The favoritism to Agumon has some backing even in the anime. In the first episode of Digimon Tamers, Takato Matsuki stated while drawing Guilmon that he'd be stronger than Agumon.
Really cool video dude!
I am glad you enjoyed it, Joordy! :D
Woooo digimon world 2 introduce me to digimon series, im happy someone discusing this!
The thing with the Necromagic is that it can only be used once per Target. If all currently fallen Targets were previously targeted by it during current Battle, then the execution will always fail. This is the intended effect, though nothing in the UI actually tells player about it.
10:43 so if I understood this part, Omnimon, Baihumon, and Diablomon were originally the Guardian Gods for their respective attributes.
Side note: During the time of these games, the US had a law in place for media. You cannot use religioius references in media. Which is why these few abilities were not allowed to be in the English version. ESPECIALLY Paradise Lost(It's religious and copy-right protected bc of the book.)
The 8 unimplemented are fully implemented in tje digimon world 2 improvment hack, Madoki Betamon is with Gizamon and Gazimon for example
Man I need to play Digimon world 2 again. I just found u through this video but checking Ur videos I see Digimon world 2 challenge run so I am insta subbing.
I am glad you're enjoying the content here, Crimson! :D
Guide you do realize Modokibetamon was literally the second enemy you’d see in DW1, it’s the same model check if you don’t believe, in fact all these missing digimon came from the first games files except for Kimerimon
Did you know that there is also dungeon model for those three 20 DP mega digimon but remaining unused along with portrait, move, and their encounter database? If only alternative mod utilizing those then this would be completed as whole
I was just talking about this game with a friend the other day, she never played it and she wanted to give it a try, I told her I played it when I was a kid and it was a grind nightmare. She still tried it and ended up not liking it 🤣 Imma give her a surprise with the sequence breaks lol
Suddenly this recommendation video pop up and I'm not mad about it. Great video man! That Bug Domain glitch happen into me once alright. It never indicate which Domain I should do first, ended up doing the other. Then the storyline progress after I've complete the domain made me thinking did I miss something? Was I supposed to do Bug Domain first? Then I revisit the Bug Domain. All the enemy is still there not moving. Surprisingly I can capture their digimon like said in the video. Which at this point I think this is definitely a glitch!
Did you know that you can obtain V-mon, Flamedramon, Lightdramon and Imperialdramon/ I-Dramon Dragon Mode in the game? I remember getting V-Mon by DNA Digivolving with Greymon and Airdramon. I-Dramon also looks incomplete missing his lower part of his armor as far I remember.
I am glad you enjoyed the video, edrayed!
Yes, I am aware of the Veemon line, but tbh I've never made the effort to get them, cause of all the grinding involved 😅.
Liked and subbed without watching. FAVE PS1 game
Surprised you missed one, considering you covered the two relevant moves back to back; if you use Shadow Scythe on a Clockmon (or presumably any Digimon with Chrono Breaker) with low HP, and he uses Chrono Breaker, the game will crash when the party member that used Shadow Scythe's turn comes back around.
I have the original english release, guarded like a treasure, and Pyschemon and Fugamon *CAN* be obtained in game normally
Digimon World 2 is a game I beat more that once, four times actually. Three times to have one for each Team and one to find all the Secrets I missed like dialogues and ways to get certain Digimon early. Also I really hate
Return Bugs.
I never knew they have armor digimon and 4 digimon like Baihumon in the game, i guess they got more hidden contents, some people actually modding the game cuz the data was in the game
I am playing DW2 Alternative, what surprise when I see my digimon digivolve to Kimeramon xD
Well at least some of us are getting their hand on Kimeramon! :D
Don't know if anyone already said that but the digimon that are essencially color swaps of others have an in universe explanation, which is that they have a diferent atribute to them, and considering that the whole deal of digimon is that they grow into different things depending on how they are trained and what conditions they live in kinda makes sense, even if it is by deffinition just reusing designs
And by atribute I mean like gabumon is normally a data type digimon and psyquemon is a virus type, those atributes work in a rock paper scissors logic
Data overflows vaccine, vacines destroy virus and virus corrupts data
This even extends to some minor things such as what digimon on the overworld of the tamagochi style digimons want to fight you
For example if you have an agumon the data digimon such as gabumon you want to fight you but a virus one wont cuz you have the upper hand in that case so they flee
Psychemon~ That's my favorite digimon
Omg I watched this entire video without even realizing it was just uploaded 6 days ago 🤣 but man I've been waiting over a decade to see those 8 lost digimon in action in this game, shame they can't digivolve tho 😭
Well I am glad you got some fun out of this video, Shirlynkiki! :D
BetaGreymon: Kneel before me!
KingSigmaDaddyGreymon:
Yo is it just me or you making this game look mad good. I legut wana play it. Just looks like final fantasy with digimon
With the 8 cut Digimon I wonder if they are just imported Digimon from world one since all of them are the wild Digimon from Digimon world 1
That probably was the case!
0:30
Bathesda and Skyrim devs dying of laughing
isn't mew can be found if you came back to after we catch mewtwo in pokemon yellow/blue ?
Im laughing and enjoying the video 🤣🤣🤣
@@blakexrosheart69 I am glad you're enjoying the video, Blake! :D
huh does garuru cannon not found on wild omnimon in terra domain?
at least that is what i read in gamefaqs guide
Can you do same topics with Digimon Card Battle too?
30:30 they attacked me anyway except for one with the Metaltyranomon Boltmon Guardromon team
I like Aurons theme too 😀
18:30 i think that is artwork for digimon world ds
did you tried to trade digimons from the jp version to the US version ? especially those that u cant get in the us version
the quest to resurrect aerith, i mean chimeramon
Maybe one day we'll actually find a legit Kimeramon! 😅
i remember farming for several of the metal greymons lol
Amazing 😊😊
digimon was one of my favourite movies growing up i remember siting down infront of tv and not moving an inch because of some hype moments seeing someone make a video on it brings me joy even if it's a game that is based on it. great video man
Yeah Digimon goes way back for me, too!
I am glad you enjoyed the video! :D
This game is great; I've completed it a few times. However, it’s very annoying to play at normal speed. When I use an emulator, I always speed up the game because it’s insane how much time it takes just to enter a battle.
Duckstation is a godsend for this game.
When you mentioned the Paradise Lost attack I though about Lucemon, because Paradise Lost is his signature attack. But when you mentioned that it was Diablomon's attack I was confused.
That's because I simply don't care enough for the Digimon that are mostly connected to Adventure and tend to always think about their multiple incoherences.
Even I don't really understand why Diaboromon was given Paradise Lost, but I don't think the Dev team particularly cared all that much about this stuff 😅.
It just so happens Diablomon also has an attack called Paradise Lost lol
I don't think that they had created Lucemon yet when Digimon World 2 was developed, if memory serves
… I Omega heal is in the game under a different name I have Mega Kabuterimon with it as an assist
I did take a look after I saw your comment, Charlesman, but I couldn't find any other healing tech that cost 16 MP (which is what Omega Heal is supposed to cost).
It might have been implemented in a different way, I suppose.
Are you sure you're not thinking about Piddomon's Mega Heal? Mega Heal heals a target ally by 150 HP; meanwhile, Omega Heal heals the user by 200 HP.
@@ShinAk1raSama That might be it. I sweat he says "Omega heal!" when he does it
