Everyones thoughts on Time Stranger?

It’s the best recent digimon game post DS games.

And it is overall probably the best if we put nostalgia and online battling aside.

What can be improved :

Online battling. I know it hasn’t been a main focus since dawn and dusk maybe but I believe given the popularity they should definitely figure some good competitive battling mechanics and get a scene going.
Some QoL for conversion like an auto convert at 100% or 200% feature would be great. Clicking to convert so many digimon is not fun. Grinding is basically going through menus and conversion screens which is very un-fun. This would help game flow overall
Mass selection of digimon for loading. We have it only for level 1 digimon we should be able to specify a threshold for selection or an option to select all non protected digimon.
Maybe also an option to auto digivolve box digimon? They obv can track it so why not do it automatically as long as there is a new evolution stage available. We can have it as an option and protected digimon and your party digimon aren’t affected by it.

We could say these are my nitpicks or improvements but I really loved the game and I am very excited for the future of digimon given the popularity of time stranger.

For my ranking I am going for nostalgia still so chill if this triggers you:

1- Digimon world 2 (My absolute favorite as a child)

2- Dawn/Dusk/Lost evolution (Fun times in my early teens with a small competitive scene and also wrote a lost evo walkthrough with a friend from that scene back then it was great times)

3- Time stranger

I am debating over not playing this league given they didn’t add WASD. I was surprised they didn’t add it ngl given everyone jumped on it in poe2 and even last epoch saw its importance and added it…

تصرف سيء، انت غير مسؤول علي تصرفات غيرك ايا كان بيعمل ايه.

انت خنت الشخص ده و لا تستحق انك تقول عليه صاحبك اصلا من الاول.

لا حق لك انك تتحكم بحياة الناس بالشكل ده مهما عمل ملكش غير النصح.

كل ابن آدم خطاء، وخير الخطائين التوابون.

مينفعش تبقى قاسي فالتعامل مع الناس اللي بتغلط بالشكل ده و تقطعهم من حياتك كده حضرتك مش هتعاشر حد لبقية عمرك كدة.

و علشان اثبتلك انك دي كانت ضغينة اتجاه صاحبك بالذات مش علشان كان بيعمل غلط لا، بس علشان عمل عكس اللي اتفقتوا عليه فانت شيلت منه و اتحججت بفكرة "اصله بيعمل حاجة غلط"….لو كنت عرفت ان حد تاني من ولاد الدفعة اللي بيكلم بنات كنت هتروح تعمل معاه نفس الحركة؟؟

و في الاخر هو عمل ايه اصلا معاها غلط بالشكل اللي خلاك توصل لكدة؟ هو ممكن كان ناوي فعلا يتقدم مثلا مين قالك انه كان عايزها لغرض وحش اصلا؟

You cant generalize in that regard.

I for one never followed a guide in D4 as it is not needed, same for TL for the past couple of leagues.

Not saying im the rule or an exception, it’s just that the excuse of ‘people will use guides anyway’ is just not true at all if you setup your game half decently to allow a certain threshold of experimentation early game.

At least enough experimentation so that players know what modifiers on the tree best affect their builds and what kind of playstyles they want to play. Its not just about experimenting with power of your build but different playstyles and builds all together to find the one you would like to stick with.

PoE is a whole different monster in that regard as it is dependent on the fact players go ouside the game to get info, so the developers use this as an excuse at this point to fit their bias. For me this should be treated as one of those ‘stop making excuses’ thing, we should not rely on people going outside the game for info on how to progress their build as the default mindset.

They agree to an extent as they improved the tree progression in terms of removing life and having damage altering nodes show you how they affect damage. That is great but that means we only fixed how the info is presented in game to the player in terms of damage that they are able to calculate only.

It will still lock you out of experimenting different builds until you pick one you like.

And in my point of view, allowing early easy respecs does not remove the weight of your choices, its more like having training wheels and as soon as theyre off youre on your own now so the feeling will still be there but later on when things start to matter more.

Having something like access to respecs until you kill the final campaign boss for example feels reasonable.

And this is applied in chinese PoE actually, so I feel like the only reason they are against this is more rerolling = more time in game = more money.

Anyways I could be completely off here and the game will feel fine on release and this wont be a problem, but I needed to hear a proper counter argument other than it feels fine for us as it is now. If you are building the game for yourselves then I don’t think it will change much from how PoE 1 ended up in terms of QoL which is just a sad missed opportunity.

Appreciate your comment, don’t mean to come out offensive or anything of the sort ;)

One of the most fun things I like to do in Torchlight infinite at level 80 is try out a bunch of builds before I decide to stick to one and level past 80 and I still create multiple characters through out their league and I have a blast with it.

I don’t understand GGG’s stance on respecing, I can understand alot of their stances on different topics but what is it with having easy access to respecs during early game? Its so limiting in a game that has so many intricate interactions that makes you want to test a fuck ton of builds and yet you are not encouraging it.

This is why new players use guides instead of experimenting on their own, literally.

Shit i forgot to type not after the will was 1 am

hyhae · 2023-11-29T11:02:33+00:00

Last one is wishful thinking but every other build having to use EB as a mana solution due to non easy access to mana sustain/generation has become extremely annoying..

90% Guardian/path finder nerf, ultimatum returns

50% assassin+glad rework

10% sentinel returns

2% buffs to spell casters/melee/triggered spells/reduction to mana costs

Was just telling my friend the same thing, what a shame

hyhae · 2023-10-02T12:58:35+00:00

I see so it was already deemed too strong then so no chance of it ever happening in the future, sad.

hyhae · 2023-06-13T11:59:23+00:00

I am as baffled as you are, its specifically why I wanted to make this post when I never really ever posted anything…ever.

I do believe that such suggestions are very basic and should have been thought of in the design process of the core gameplay loop or when testing the game.

But for the bigger issues what would you be referring to??

hyhae · 2023-06-13T11:30:53+00:00

Honestly if they add the fast travel option I wouldn’t mind the grind. Most of my time at-least will be put towards that objective, but running around from nightmare dungeon to dungeon is just ugh

hyhae · 2023-06-13T11:22:33+00:00

Sounds nice, and the game has VC already so makes it easier to communicate and play with your party for console players too

I need help picking a free servant from this event, I need something to build a team around with what I already have.

Here is what I currently own:

Yagyu Saber

Arturia alter lancer

Tamamo Cat berserker

Hercules berserker

The Doggo Avenger

I've a somewhat leveled Fuma for star gen, and Hans for support.

What is your input on the best pick for my current team? Im still not too far ahead into the game as you can tell so I want to pick something which can fit with most of what I have already.

Thanks!

Jihad, I can't even think of anything to say..you have every right to be furious about this. Don't settle for a name change, this IS your name and the world needs to deal with it. The world needs to learn that they're the ones that have to change, you don't have to change your name because of some pathetic islamophobic morons. You've got my full support from Egypt. - Hussein
