The Digimon franchise is often compared to the Pokemon franchise and Ryosuke Hara, the producer of Digimon Story: Time Stranger, is well aware of this. Speaking in a new interview Mr. Hara hopes that the recent game, which received positive reviews upon release, will help highlight the differences between the two franchises. Here’s what he told MCV/Develop.
“There are certainly similarities when it comes to the monster collection aspect, and it’s true that many players enjoy both franchises,” he explained. “So in that sense, comparisons are understandable and even expected.
“However, as you pointed out, Digimon and Pokémon are fundamentally different in their core concepts and appeal. Each has its own unique strengths. We believe that these differences will naturally become apparent as players experience this title.
“Our hope is that this game serves as an opportunity for more people to discover and appreciate what makes Digimon distinct.”

What happened to Yokai Watch? Is that dead now? I was thinking they’d make an HD version or remakes..
Yokai Watch is Level-5.
Love me some Digimon. I’ve been rewatching the old anime on blu-ray from when I was a kid. It’d be cool if they had some of the characters from there in a game, that’d be neat. Maybe they have, I haven’t kept up with these
That anime was my JAM as a kid / tween. Love me some Kabuterimon 😍
how bout yall make cyber sleuth 3 -_- that was different enough from pokemon
story games were athing before cybersleuth and continue to be after
dont care didnt ask, i want cybersleuth 3. that was the comment
They were always different. People just think mon and assume its the same. Now we need some anime Cybersleuth anime from Seiji Kishi and anniversary anime projects for Tamers, Frontiers, and Savers and a Mamoru Hosoda Digimon anime movie a new one.
Digimon digital monsters, Digimon are the champions.
Digimon puts effort into the games, Nintendo/pokemon is an FU cash grab now.
