    Very nostalgiac to Digimon fans. Much better version than the PS Vita predecessor. An upgraded version of the original playstation story of Digimon World. Great fun for hours. Graphics are up to par for a remaster of a Vita game come to PS4. You can check out Max Stats Guide by MalavarTCOne on youtube to get good tips when going through this game.

    Digimon World is one of the most unique RPG series to ever exist. Instead of taking full control of your mindless party, you act as a coach for two living, breathing partners. You can still issue direct commands, but your Digimon companion will decide how they want to set up the attack. The focus on the game is to grow a strong bond and adventure with this living companion. It's the bestDigimon World is one of the most unique RPG series to ever exist.

    As a long time fan of this franchise I have been enthusiastically awaiting this game. The old and new aspects integrated here were done very nicely. The way in which original content has been expanded is a welcome change. However, at its core Digimon V-pet ( the catalyst of the Digimon World series) is a franchise built on battling.

    This game is a great sequel to the original Digimon World on Playstation. I remember being a 6 years old playing the old one for hours on end. Now I'm an adult and doing the same thing all over again. This nostalgia ride is definitely worth picking up if you are a fan of digimon or fan of a good game

    The best Digimon experience in the current gen. Tons of Digimon to choose from and a nod back to one of the most original monster capturing games combined to bring both old and new generation Digimon lovers joy. The ExE mechanic is a very fun addition that makes for some very climactic scenes. A must-have for any Digimon and JRPG fan.

    Very good game and enjoyable game. It was very nostalgic for me due to the fact that I have play every digimon game that was release in the US. One of the best game I very play only thing that was missing for me was the PvP against other players.

    A great game for fans, but bad for novices.

    Positive: the focus of the game is about take care of your partner, and the way you do it interferes at the evolutions. Its the essence of digimon, the reflex of your personality at your partner.

    Negative: cruel grind. Up the stats is way too repetitive.

    Honestly, I love this game. As a fan of digimon from its initial release when I was a kiddo, this was a blast from the past. More like the original Digimon World in terms of combat, I like the intuitive and complex battle system. While yes, the story wasn't the best in the west, it kept me interested enough to continue progressing through the game and beat it multiple times.

    I also prefer the more 'open' and colorful world to that of Cyber Sleuth- while the story in CS and HM are probably a good deal better, the bland backdrops and linear systems were kind of a disappointment. If you could mix the two, it'd be the perfect game.

    That said, I love this and hope they come out with similar titles in the future! Tons to do, lots of hours of fun and new locales, and plenty to keep you wanting more.    … Expand

    Did you play the original Digimon World on th playstation 1 and love it? Have you been disappointed by the lack of a real sequel or successor? Then this is the game for you. It brings back the systems you miss, adds more mechanics and even more digimon.

    If you've ever wanted a more intimate creature raising game that isn't Pokemon or SMT, then this is worth checking out as well. You actually have to raise and care for your Digimon (feeding, taking to bathroom, watching their weight etc) instead of just fighting.

    Pros:
    Plenty of content.

    Story is nice and has that perfect digimon mix of light-hearted comedy and dark themes.

    Music is pretty good (a little repetitive at times though)
    There's a ton of Digimon to raise and lots of strategies you can utilize.

    Cons:
    There is a constant grind. You always need something, but if you play alot of JRPGs, this isn't new to you.

    Some Megas have some ridiculous conditions to get.

    The game somehow both hand holds and doesn't explain everything well enough.

    Adquirí este videojuego por el hecho de ser de Digimon y por que quería ver como era desde mi perspectiva tras ver varios análisis en youtube. El mismo día que adquirí este juego también adquirí el Hackers Memory y días después el Fist of the norh Star lost paradise, dos juegos a los cuales les tenia muchísimas ganas y tengo que decir que los tuve que aparcar un poco por culpa de este juego, no me esperaba gran cosa, solo un juego correcto sin mas y si este juego me ha tenido enganchado de una forma casi enfermiza no creo que sea tan mediocre como lo ponen algunos medios. Antes de nada tengo que aclarar que no toque mucho el primer world así que si este es mas o menos profundo no lo se. El juego en si es una aventura RPG con toques de tamagotchi ya que al comienzo de la aventura nos darán a elegir entre dos huevos para ir criando a nuestro digimon y estos tienen un ciclo de vida limitado por días pero estos claro esta podrán volver a nacer con estadísticas mas avanzadas, sera muy difícil conseguir a tu digimon deseado en las primeras horas de juego. El mundo digital es mas bonito de lo que podría pensar en un principio, posee unos entornos muy variados, contando con desiertos, bosques, sendas heladas, etc. Otro punto importante de este juego es que a medida que avanzamos por el mundo digital nos encontramos otros digimon que necesitaran de nuestra ayuda, esto son las propias misiones secundarias del juego y una vez que las superemos, estos digimon se unirán a nuestra ciudad, que se podría decir que es la base de operaciones del propio juego, aquí conseguiremos la carne para alimentar a nuestras criaturas, los aseos portátiles para cuando estos tengan que hacer sus necesidades entre otras cosas, cuantos mas digimon se unan mas aumentara la prosperidad de la ciudad y mas cosas útiles desbloquearemos, cosas tales como el viaje rápido, un dojo para bloquear las evoluciones que no queramos, etc. Otra cosa a tener en cuenta es el gimnasio, pasaremos aquí unas cuantas horas para subir parámetros a nuestros digimon, eso si, sin llegar a abusar, pues estos podrán morir de agotamiento. El combate es automático pero contamos con las ordenes y los puntos de orden, lo primero son los ataques del digimon que podremos seleccionar y lo segundo lo que hace que podamos lanzarlos. La historia en si no es gran cosas, es sencilla y cumple con su cometido. Para terminar, si eres fan de digimon creo que este juego cumplirá con tus expectativas, a mi un juego no me había mantenido así de enganchado en mucho tiempo y considero que es una de las joyas ocultas del catalogo de PS4    … Expand

    dont listen to those negative comments they clearly dont know what they are talking about, because they never played a vpet style game before

    i do enjoy this game i put like a thousand hours total recently

    i do have to say some flaws in this game are present

    -partner digimon ai in combat
    -the lifespan feels too short
    -the techpool is half of the time decent and half of the time not so much
    -too much is luck based like fishing, card gathering and treasure hunter
    -the one bug that freezes the game, like as your partner gets morphed into the flat ailment you will get stuck in the game even after the fight is over because your partner still has the flat ailment on and cannot be cured, so it forces a manual reboot
    -roster is too redundant like too much recolors of most digimon like say 3 different megalogrowmons
    -simple glitches are still not fixed like graphical kinds, and texts, like growmon's entry is a copy paste of galgomon's entry in the field guide
    -most agitation abilities are not worth using

    so my advise to improve in the sequel is first and foremost
    listen to those with intellectual feedback
    2nd fix the above flaws
    3rd take your time to iron out the littlest bugs and test it out

    so yeah love this game, definitely recommend it to vpet diehards
    and at the same time the flaws need to be known, acknowledged of their presence and their issues, then learn from the mistakes    … Expand

    Not a game for everyone, it has problems and its a very specific niche. But it is still a great game, very competent in what it want to do, and one of the best Digimon games to date. If you play it, please consider taking breaks and coming back later, its a game about patience and progression.

    Haciendo homenaje al icónico Digimon World Original, Next Order toma todas las características buenas que tenía aquel.

    Con un mundo semiabierto repleto de CIENTOS de especies distintas de Digimon, decenas y decenas de posibilidades de evolución y una historia que sigue la pauta de la original, DW:NO retoma, después de tantos años, lo que pudo hacer de Digimon una franquicia de videojuegos tan grande como su competencia.

    El nivel de dificultad es, por supuesto, muy alto (No tanto como el DW original), por lo que la clave está en la paciencia. Porque sí, vamos a perder. Y muchas veces.

    El sistema de crianza sigue tan bueno como siempre, e incluso es un poco más rápido al poder criar a dos Digimon a la vez.

    Las batallas se sienten algo vacías al no haber innovado en este apartado, tal vez dar un poco más de control al Jugador hubiera sido una buena mejora pero han decidido seguir fiel a la idea original también en este aspecto.

    GRÁFICOS:
    Nada espectacular para ser el PS4, pero lo cierto es que luce mucho mejor que en el Vita.
    No hay mucho nivel de detalle pero sí que hay muchas áreas por explorar y visitar, el diseño de los Digimon es increíble.

    El juego tiene pocas cinemáticas, pero aquella son excelentes. Un estilo ánime de buena calidad y con una buena actuación de voz.

    SONIDO:
    Remixes del soundtrack original de DW, y piezas nuevas. Los efectos de sonido precisos y en general tiene música agradable a la hora de explorar las amplias zonas del juego.

    INNOVACIÓN:
    El juego no quiere hacerlo, el juego quiere que aquellos que invertimos tantas horas en el PlayStation 1 las invirtamos también aquí.    … Expand

    ➡️Estúdios: Bandai Namco Entertainment, BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe, Namco Bandai Games America Inc.
    ➡️Gêneros: RPG eletrônico, Jogo eletrônico de aventura, Jogo eletrônico de simulação, Animal de estimação virtual

    ➡️Digimon World: Next Order foi lançado pela primeira vez em para o PlayStation Vita em 17 de março, com um lançamento para o PlayStation 4 chegando ao Ocidente no ano seguinte. Desde então, ele desfrutou de um culto de seguidores que agora finalmente foi lançando PC e Switch anos depois. Talvez devido às suas origens no console portátil da Sony, ele se sinta em casa no Switch que entregaria mais acesso conteúdo para galera que é fã desse universo, mas Digimon World: Next Order. E ainda uma grande surpresa para todos jogadores brasileiros, finalmente game estra traduzindo 100% legendado Pt-Br, inclusive também está disponível gratuito para outros consoles, apenas só atualizar game.

    ✅DIGIMON WORLD É UMA HOMENAGEM A NOSTALGIA?
    ➡️Next Order é, muitos aspectos, uma homenagem ao primeiro Mundo Digimon. A jogabilidade, a estrutura e até os efeitos sonoros remetem aos elementos mais memoráveis daquele jogo original. Assim como no “Digimon World” do Playstation 1, um dos principais objetivos do Next Order é explorar e rastrear novos residentes para uma cidade em crescimento. Mesmo assim, parece mais uma releitura acolhedora do original do que uma continuação, assim como os animais de estimação digitais clássicos, você precisará alimentar, treinar e cuidar do seu Digimon. Existem muitos itens que você pode usar, várias estatísticas que afetam a digivolução. Inclusive melhorou muito aspecto na relação gameplay no geral, por isso que podemos dizer um jogo que vai te trazer muita boa memória nostalgia desde no seu antecessor Digimon world Playstation 1.

    ✅CAMPANHA / DURAÇÃO DO GAME
    ➡️ Em Digimon World: Next Order, o jogador assume o papel de Digiescolhido, como Shiki ou Takuto, quando ele(a) acorda, está em um mundo misterioso. O vilão do game é o Machinedramon. Ele(a) sem entender nada o que está acontecendo no digimundo, um digimon chamado Machinedramon ataca e com isso os teus parceiros Metalgreymon e o Wargreymon vem correndo para te ajudar a enfrenta-lo. O objetivo desse game é embarcar em uma jornada para resolver um complexo Digi-mistério e restaurar o Digi-mundo a sua ordem natural. O mundo de Digimon entrou em um estado de caos absoluto enquanto Machinedramon destrói tudo que toca. Ao longo de sua jornada, os jogadores precisarão explorar o mundo e fortalecer seus laços com seus companheiros Digimon para impedir a destruição completa do mundo, também resgata alguns Digimon, eles acabar se juntando vilarejo e reconstruir sua loja, farmácia, club de esporte.

    ✅GAMEPLAY / LOCALIZADO PT-BR
    ➡️A gameplay usa as mesmas mecânicas de jogabilidade do “Digimon world” do ps1. Uma diferença desse novo para o antigo é que agora você consegue jogar com até dois digimons e também consegue ver a lista de evolução deles. Você terá que treinar bastante para atingir o nível de mega evolução e claro dando aquela atenção (dar comida, educar, levar no banheiro e ver se ele está feliz ou triste) é fundamental para atingir uma determinada evolução que você gostaria de chegar. Não é algo tão difícil quanto parece, quanto mais jogar mais experiencia você vai pegando.
    O game está legendado 100% em PT-BR, o que facilita muito para entender a campanha e o tutorial....

    This game is very fun but very challenging. It doesn't explain any of the main core training mechanics you need to not make the game feel like a slog. Many people hate it because your digimon don't live forever, they have a decent lifespan after upgrading your tamer talent tree, but half the fun is exploring and see what evolution lines you happen to unlock imo.

    This game is very polarizing and like most other Digimon games is mostly for fans.

    With solid JRPG gameplay and surprisingly accessible mechanics, I was shocked by how much I got out of my time with Digimon World: Next Order. I will say, however, that the game will probably be most appreciated by those with a strong affection for whimsical nonsense — two of the game’s main characters are a dignified kung-fu cat and a tiny caveman whose hair completely obscures his features, and the most bizarre transformation involved a spike-shelled walrus evolving into an axe-wielding Frankenstein. This is a solid game, but more than that, it’s a strange one, and that strangeness has to be played to be believed.

    After Cyber Sleuth got our expectations real high, Digimon World: Next Order is crushed under those expectations. Although they are parts of two different series, Next Order still feels like an old and less fun game.
