Digimon Survive [Let's Play] - 09

This is the first big threat our party faces. We find Saki and Shuuji, and we fight against Fangmon who was pusuing them. Labramon digivovles to Dobremon! The professor makes a heroic sacrifice and goes missing...

Digimon Survive is a Digimon Visual Novel with Turn-based strategy battles. The game follows a group of children who find themselves in another world, and their desperate attempts to find a way back home. The children find themselves involved with monsters, both as partners and enemies.

This is the darkest piece of Digimon media I ever consumed, and Cybersleuth had pretty dark stuff too. Digimon Survive fuses the concept of Digital Monsters with Japanese folklore. It's amazing how the idea of "child sacrifice" integrates seamlessly with Digimon lore. The specific Digimon they choose for this game enhance this theme.

Digimon Survive is the closest modern entry to the old school Digimon anime vibes. Though, more than the earlier Digimon anime series, the game reminds me more of Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor series. In that series too, characters may die depending on your actions.

Below you can watch my playthrough of Digimon Survive, and the link to the whole playlist.

THIS PLAYTHROUGH IS MODDED: I installed the Improved Translation Mod and the Quirky Dialogue Font Mod. This playthrough should look a bit different from the official version.

09 - Fangmon

Saki and Shuuji were escaping from the monster pursuing them along with Floramon and Lopmon.

While both of them are panicking, Shuuji has it worse than Saki. Especially since they don't know what happened to the professor after they separated...

A while later...

Takuma and his friends finally meet Saki and Shuuji, but they're being pursued by Fangmon.

The professor tries to save Saki, but he gets thrown off the Dam. We don't see what happens to him, but we have to be optimistic. The group couldn't go after him because of the Fog.
