Digimon Story Time Stranger

Digimon Story: Time Stranger is a must-play video game for fans of the series and newcomers alike. It has extreme complexity in the Digivolution and Personality system, but it is also super easy to get your hands on and play.

Digimon Story Time Stranger is a beautiful entry in the series, standing out for its story, the number of creatures, and its combat system. However, it’s somewhat held back by its slow pacing.

Time Stranger marks an exciting new chapter in the Digimon Story series, packed with fresh and refined features that every monster-taming and battle enthusiast will appreciate. Once the story gains momentum, it proves to be engaging and well-written — but even before that, there’s so much to explore and do with your Digimon that you’ll hardly know where to begin.

Digimon Story: Stranger is not only one of the best representations of the brand, but it is also a solid, deep, and very fun JRPG.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger is a good JRPG that every player needs to discover, thanks to a very enjoyable combat system.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger is the best Digimon game we’ve had. The graphics and nuance are absolutely stunning, and the game offers a solid turn-based JRPG experience. But with its pricetag, it feels like it’s missing just a bit of polish. For Digimon fans, though, Time Stranger is a must-play that will truly take you into the Digital World.

Digimon Story: Time Stranger is very half-baked. After an incredibly slow start, and I'm the first to say that role-playing games take time and often grow enormously after a few hours, the colourful Digimon world is certainly fun to explore, but the disappointing technical aspects, the simplistic battles, the dull story, and the boring gameplay moments mean everything feels like half-baked fun at best.

Honestly can't understand how this is getting such glowing reviews. As far as the monster gathering mechanics go, it's good, but tedious in the sense you can't just capture something by fighting it once, you need to fight something over and over again sometimes accruing as little as 5% progress per kill, with 100-200% required to recruit it. The plot is good on paper, but poorly executed, I'm 60 hours in so far, and the game has taken me to every major area at least twice, and the latter half of the game has a nasty habit of having you replay the entire area you just completed due to time travel shenanigans. I'm engrossed enough to want to see how it ends, but not particularly happy about having to replay areas and trudge through anime slop filler conversations, not a single word that comes out of Inori's mouth has any bearing on the plot. The absolute worst thing about this game, are the digimon following you around. Now they had to make them follow you, because you're supposed to chat with them to change their personalities through a series of repetitive trite questions. However the further into the game you get the bigger most digimon are, they're programmed to run in front of you when you stop so they can be spoken to, but all this does is constantly block your camera, it's absolutely infuriating. So if you want a mid story, with cliche anime conversations, a series of decent but overused locales and a good but somewhat grindy monster collecting experience, check this game out.

Non è perfetto ma è un buon RPG a turni a tema Digimon. Ci sono delle incongruenze nella sceneggiatura e questo non mi fa dare di più perché a mio avviso la trama deve avere un senso e una logica. Non critico gli errori di trascrizione in italiano, ma se nella storia viene detta una cosa e poi dopo dieci minuti è come se non fosse mai stato detto mi sembra veramente strano.

La traducción es penosa, con más DLCs que un juego que Capcom y Ubisoft juntos y un horrible rendimiento de solo 30fps en PS5, hace que el juego que más esperaba este año sea un paquete para nada recomendable para los fans que un nuevo Digimon Story desde 2016.
