Digimon World (デジモンワールド Dejimon Wārudo?) is a role-playing, adventure, and digital pet video game developed by Bandai released at January 28, 1999 in Japan, North America at May 23, 2000, and PAL at July 6, 2001 for the PlayStation. It is the first game in the Digimon World series. The storyline focuses on a human brought to File City on File Island by Jijimon to save the island. Digimon have been losing their memories and becoming feral and the city has fallen into disarray. The goal of Mameo is to save the island by helping Digimon recover their memory and return to the city.

As it came before the anime in Japan, it is very strictly based on the Virtual Pets. The game play revolves around raising a single Digimon from its Digitama form, hatching into a Fresh, up through In-Training, Rookie, Champion, and with work, Ultimate. A Digimon partner will die with age, and return to an egg eventually, so the player has to raise it again.

Fans of the anime will be familiar with the sixth stage, Mega; however this game was made only shortly after the Pendulum series of pets, which introduced Mega level.

To raise a Digimon partner, the player must train it, feed it, let it rest, and take it to the bathroom.

The other main aspect of gameplay is battle. The player's partner Digimon fight the Digimon that have become aggressive due to a crisis on File Island. Partner Digimon begin the game with a few basic skills but acquire more as they progress in levels through the game.

The PAL region's variant cover art features the seven initial Partner Digimon from Digimon Adventure. The group includes Tentomon which isn't obtainable but does however appear in Beetle Land and Gomamon, who is otherwise completely absent from this game

Gameplay

Digimon World's game play utilizes two major aspects: Raising and battling. The element of monster raising consists of feeding your Digimon, allowing it to rest, and leading it to the bathroom. As a Digimon grows and trains, it can digivolve into a stronger form; there are 5 stages of digivolution in total including the desirable Ultimate form. Raising a Digimon carefully and properly helps progress through the game, and improper treatment can lead to dire consequences. The second element of the game, battling, composes the other major aspect of the game. Digimon World's battle system heavily relies on options that a player can command, such as "Your Call" and "Retreat".[3] As a player ventures in the wild, Digimon may engage in battle when touching each others paths. Battles are usually inevitable while adventuring, and they are a reliable source of techniques that a Digimon can learn and money. Training a partner Digimon enhances its parameters, enabling it to fight with better ease and digivolve to powerful forms. Digimon World also provides various mini-games for the player, including fishing, arena tournaments, and curling. Sub-quests are also available, mainly for new recruiting Digimon and other hidden surprises.

Is there any reason I shouldn’t start just actively identifying as pro-soros when dealing with more conspiritorially minded right wingers? I don’t really give a shit about anything but pissing them off as hard as humanly possible at every single opportunity.

@GalaxyBrain In reply to your reply to my post last megatgread

Think the landlord was just exaggerating for the story. He also went on to say how scary it feels to be watched and stolen from. Heard him as I left say how he is considering getting a new Rolex because the "cheap" (1k watches he was mentioning) are "too cheap feeling for me."

I frustrated myself trying to learn trains. Instead I made some exo-factories for plastic and aluminum casings that transport materials via drones (and have a secondary port to transport batteries to the exo-factories). I have doubled my energy production with 5 nuclear reactors (1 using plutonium) and fixed all the nagging resource bottlenecks. I've progressed to the point of using ionized rocket fuel and (sometimes) mk. 6 conveyor belts. tux-shining

It is time to start producing everything in phase 5. Now is the time of monsters.

What language is this? My white ignorant ass wants to say Hindi, but I know there are actually several languages on that subcontinent which I can't differentiate.

Can your precious science explain why I was in a terrible mood yesterday and yet I am in a good mood today even though nothing has changed? Didn't think so, as even a child knows that this is the result of my having freed myself of demonic influence

“Nobody wants this” but it’s gender swapped and it’s a rom com about Felix meeting a blonde Protestant minister.

"Humans are a social species, and so we are not only ourselves. We are something together, a thing that is neither a creature with person-shaped organs, nor a pile of persons that accumulates where the wind blows us. This is a good thing, probably; when people die, the creature's organs are not failing, and when the wind blows hard enough to scatter the pile, we can grab hold of each other to resist. But when I see the bombs dropping, I feel differently. A creature could not bleed itself this way and continue to live. A pile does not feel the pain of its missing pieces."

Watching the new RLM video where they do the ghost hunting and it's brought up kinda late into it that Rich doesn't know the technical aspects of a video camera enough to set up shots himself and whatnot. He's been working with Mike since the mid 90s and has been professionally doing film work for like almost 20 years now and had at least been a camera operator for shots pretty often. You'd think he'd be good enough to be trusted with setting up shots and lighting and setting and whatnot, it'd not that complicated. They were making it sound like he wouldn't be able to get a shot in focus.

I ROWED SO FUCKING HARD. 2.39 MILES 779 STROKES. i'm not even 10% slower even shifting the resistance from 10 to 16 (max) it was so hard but i drew upon hexbear's collective image of me as the guy w/ a rowing machine and absorbed power from it like goku charging a spirit bomb and i banged out a cool 50+ powerful strokes per minute 😤😤😤😤

Huge fan of Atun-Shei Films on YouTube, but he hath also accursed me with a most devious affliction. That of the early modern English. I had learnt this manner of speaking long afore hearing the preaching of the VVitchfinder General of Massachusetts Bayye. Alas I had learned it in the public system of education within the shire which I dvvell, and to the great shame of our educators and administration it was the works of the papist sinner of sinner himself. The 'play-vvrite' VVilliam Shakespeare an most ungodly man who doth take to paper tales of pagan ancestry as vvell as fawning praise for the vvretched throne of the English monarch and their foul ancestors deeds. Now the godly vvorks of this humble man hath rewakened me to speak in such manner vvehenever an act in defilement of the almighty and his sacred scripture doth cross mine eyes. And no one can tell what the fuck I'm saying
