#DIGIMON STORY CYBER SLEUTH REVIEW PS4#

It is evident that the PS4 version of the game is just the Vita version prettied, though, up as many assets are blurry and sometimes things look rather inconsistent. I love the character models of the main characters and mostly all the environments. Visually, it has a lot of good things going on. I wish auto battle just attacked instead of using special attacks though so it would not waste SP.

I spent a good amount of time just grinding with auto battle on to gain experience to Digivolve and if youвЂ™re a stat fanatic, you will lose your mind here with what is possible.

You can also access online battles against people across the globe from the DigiLab. The DigiFarm lets you send out Digimon to train or hunt down new cases for you. You can Digivolve your Digimon to stronger ones at the DigiBank or access previous dungeons to train as well. The DigiLab reminds me of the Velvet Room in Persona games. Outside of battles there are tons of areas for you to gain experience, like the Colosseum and each battle with a particular enemy brings you closer to having properly scanned it for the DigiLab. The battle user interface is really nice although I wish it was tweaked a bit for the larger screen as it still looks like a handheld interface on a large screen. These occur randomly in dungeons or during story events. The actual battles make up a large portion of what you do in Cyber Sleuth and they are proper turn based battles. These cases have you explore different areas in various fetch quests or defeating certain Digimon in the digital world among other things. You spend time solving cases at the detective agency along with progressing the story. Cyber Sleuth takes place in various locations in Tokyo and the only real problem I have with these is the invisible walls that stop you getting a true open-world feeling. AkibaвЂ™s Trip replicating Akihabara (including even game trailers being played while you walk around) and Grand Theft Auto VвЂ™s Los Santos are two extremes and some of my favourite locations in gaming. I love when games try to recreate portions of a real city or something that feels like a lively town. Progression occurs through various locations in the digital world and the real world. Persona 3 had this issue as well but I found the story there so much better than Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth in every aspect. The main problem I had with the plot is in the pacing. When it comes to depth, the plot is nowhere near the genre greats but it was interesting enough for me to plow through the complete story with a ton of grinding that I ended up doing for fun. Kyoko, a detective, rescues you from the middle of the street and this is where your tale properly begins. A monster called an eater attacks you while you try and log out and this causes you to remain in a state of digital limbo in the real world. This is where things pick up as you meet and befriend digital monsters (Digimon) before something horrendous happens. Remember chat rooms from back in the day? Digimon Story begins with a short video showcasing EDEN a chat room where people meet in avatar form and you begin by meeting up with some of your online friends there.
