Message: [QUOTE="Hikari.EXE, post: 21972, member: 25310"] Good article, overall. Some points of criticism, I for one think that the tone of Digimon is good as it is, I like the WAAAAAY darker aproach it has to some of its stories, I only really understood the meaning of SURVIVE until Edit: the spoiler tag isen't working... [SPOILER="ONE OF THE CHARACTERS GETS MURDERED HOLY SHIT!"][/SPOILER] I do think that Digimon as of now is struggling with making cohesive media launches, we sometimes have a game, once in a blue moon a anime, and the TCG... It's fiiiiine honestly, but Bandai really let the ball drop hard on some pack releases. Like you said, it's a franchise with alot of potencial to tell stories that other monster catching series don't have the setting for, but I guess since Game Freak has a monopoly on that front, why bother making your own thing right? I think this comes from an angle of "Look we already have FromSoft, Tekken and the Tales Series. We don't need to go toe to toe with Pokemon anymore" Why bother finding your niche in a dominated market when you dominate another? I still have faith with Digimon, I know that because sometimes they do release the good game here and there (You mentioned Survive being lackluster, I enjoyed it alot) so I'll keep seeing what they keep cooking in there.
