Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth

Q: What are your thoughts on the video game 'Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth?'

[senshikoi]

See next 0rder topic for first and second paragraph !

 

Watching the trailers, I have to say, if I had to choose between next 0rder, and Cyber Sleuth, I think I'm more looking forward to Cyber Sleuth, which means I have to get a PS4 or Vita, from the trailers, it's just more amazing!

 

Hang on... it's already out, I've not been paying attention, didn't even know about Day 1 content, but as I've said, no PS4 or Vita, at the moment!

 

These are not reasons why I'd pick Cyber Sleuth over next 0rder, but this one does feature anime cutscenes, and cell-shading cutscenes, and available in English!

 

As for the reasons why, as I said, it looks more amazing:

• Digital Gate Open/Time Shift - with the game including the real and a digital world, it's kinda like 02 or Xros Wars Hunters, or a Persona game, or to lesser degree Fate/Extra (and CCC);
  
• Digicode, scan - well not quite, rather than purifing Digimon, you log data of Digimon you encounter, and when you have recorded 100% of their data, you can acquire that Digimon for yourself, think Final Fantasy IV did a similar thing, where you unlocked content;
  
• Brain Eater - kinda, the concept of the Eater itself, and the broken protagonist, due to having some of their mind data eaten;
  
• Human Villains - as well as the Eater, you have Human Villains, a couple of them women, that's equality for you;
   
  
• Royal Knights and Examon - not two types of threats (unknown and human), but three, Digimon, making a dramatic entrance, decending to the real world from a hole in the sky;
  
• Party of three and a farm - you can have a total of three Digimon in your party, but can also have a number of other Digimon available to be called up from a farm;
  
• Xros Combo - your partners can perform combos, just requires either two or three partners, although compatability might be a factor;
   
  
• Who's that girl? - it features characters from other games (crossing the divide?)!
  

 

As with next 0rder, I will include a trailer, and I'll go for PV5, think it's got the most to show off!

I liked PV2, with it's style and jazzy music, PV5 features some of that, but also features other things, the music of PV2 made me think of some of the Pokémon games, the ones with jazzier music, so Colosseum/XD and I think Unova games (Black/White/Black2/White2), either those or X/Y, but think it's Unova! Music in English Gameplay Trailer makes me think of Final Fantasy XIII/XIII-2/Lightning Returns!

 

Hope Cyber Sleuth comes with language option, as I not really a fan of Kyouko's English voice, over Maaya Sakamoto, however might just be how she was asked to perform the lines in the English Story Trailer, compared to Sakamoto's performance in which ever was the equivalent PV!
