5 Features Pokemon Games Can Steal from Digimon Story

Pace of Battle

What Pokemon Can Learn From Digimon Story 

The fights in the Digimon Story titles aren’t that much quicker quicker than the mainline Pokemon games at the start, but both Cyber Sleuth and Hacker’s Memory have options for players to speed up battles. Animations can be skipped, and players can even choose to set battles to “auto” if they’re simply grinding for experience. This is a nice feature, simply because it lowers the time spent while trying to level up Digimon. This type of “quality of life” change is something that adult players deeply appreciate, as it allows them to play in a way better suited to their schedules. Games should always be as accessible as possible, and in this particular area, Digimon makes leveling up on a tight schedule much easier than Pokemon does.
