Digimon World 3!!!

Following the Digimon World 2 thread....I made this. So, anyone who has anything to say regarding this classic(I think) rpg...spit it all.

This may not be able to carve itself in people's memory, even for me, Suikoden 2 ranks much higher than this game...but I've always liked how the towns and all that are made so vividly. Plus, the bgm for towns are quite catchy too...I enjoyed all of them. The loading time is still an issue here but...this game shows much improvement compared to the previous digimon rpgs...

What I liked most about this game is how they simplified(and imo, improved) the Digimon card battle system. I remember playing the Digimon digital card battle game and complained about how long it took me to win, just because the opponent chose to cling on their sorry lives...in this game there's no more delaying like that. Every round can end quickly and decisively, just like how I like it.

The battle system...hmm, I don't think there's anything too bad or spectacular about it....just your old turn-based style...but ah, grinding can be a real pain....especially with certain digimons. That kinda sucks....

Too bad the game didn't allow us to duel between players....I had to make hand-drawn decks to duel with my friends. If only in-game dueling is possible, I bet I can have more people feel the might of my Digimon card-less decks...yeah, all program cards. Love the deck.

digimon world 2 uses card-battle system ??
i'd like to ask , would you please tell me what GBA games use card battle system too ???

Umm...it's digimon world 3, and it's for PSone...digimon world 2 really doesn't have any card battles in it.

As for gba games...can't help you. The only gba game i've played is ff tactics.

Ahh the good old digimon world 3... I was glad to see digimon get back to it's roots but I guess asking for the old free roaming, dodge able battles from digimon 1 was too much to ask...

Only thing I hate about it is it's annoying battle animations and skills (all projectile attacks looks the same) and grinding time is real pain I mean leveling you digimon to 60(unless they are rookies) just to learn their finisher moves...

as for the cards... I find it epic... no more 1 hour long matches just because my opponent has so many life adding cards...

@mibuchiha: no digimon deck.. as in only digivice cards, equipment and power up cards... cool.. I use a all brown digimon deck... powerful cards for no cost..

@Symeria: yeah, gotta agree that the digimon battle aspect of the game really need much improvement....

as for the deck, you used brown deck? hmm...yeah, free powerful cards but...there's just too much program cards that attack only brown cards so i don't think it's good...plus i suck in making color-specific decks...that's why i just jumble up all the program cards i like. somehow it turned out so powerful....

Well I do remember having a rare card that prevents my opponent to use program cards so program card attacking brown cards is solved. it's been a while since I last played my file so I can't remember my cards... I'll try and load it sometime and see what cards I have...

Jumbled up program cards huh... well having a lot of program cards does give you a lot of attacking and defending options so I think I understand why it became powerful. add in the little hole that not many program cards can counter other program cards...

BTW those who played this game can you tell me you final Team lineup...
Mine is:

Veemon evolved to Imperialdramon
Agumon evolved to war greymon
kotemon Evolved to guardiangemon

also Anyone here managed to get all the Legendary Weapons?

I've played the card game for so many hours in DW3..so fun...the only thing I didn't like about the game is that


and let's face it, the storyline wasn't anywhere near the ff games and such. Still, despite it's flaws, I'm really happy that I have my copy of it. ^_^

freeze bug, huh? that indeed makes a program card null and void but imo given how the card battle system is, it is very easy to counter....

you just have to be the first one playing the program card, that's all.

and my line is....veemon to imperialdramon paladin
guilmon to beelzemon
agumon to diaboromon.

and i do get all the legendary weapons, but hell that took a lot of time...

@lazy: yeah me too thinks that other aspects of the game really need improvements... wish there is a rpg that involves only the card battle.

Darn it... the darned memory card deleted all files in it... shoot there goes 2 years(I think) of hard work on this game... oh well that's life... back to building a team and deck up from scratch...

@mibuchiha: well there's yugioh... but then again that takes too long... well If they ever decide to make Digimon digital card battle 2 then I hope card battles will be like the card battles of 3

I read from the ratings the first one sucked. Why is that?

@lazy: the duels take too much time. i used to duel for almost 1 hour, just because the opponent used the "cling to dear life" strategy...in Digimon World 3, a duel takes at most 5 minutes...and that's what I love about it.

@Symeria: yugioh? i play that too...but then again, no. too long, and it sucks how i have to worry about forbidden, limited or whatever cards....if they don't want to allow it, don't make it. Digimon (World 3) TCG >>>>Yu-Gi-Oh.

@all: and here's my deck list....what do you think?

Name: Pro-programmed.

4 Summon Angemon - Summon 2 Angemons, 14/16 to the field, white
4 Gold Aura - Add 10/10 to all digimons on your side of field, white
4 Control Parts - Control one of your opponent digimon on the field, blue
4 Freeze Bug - Negate the effect of program card launched before this card, blue
4 Ecoly Cycle - Take one card in trash and put in hand, green
2 Beast Energy - Add 20/20 to one digimon, green
4 Deceive Cloak - Take one card in you deck and add it to your hand, black
4 Summon Devimon - Summon one Devimon, 19/18 to the field, black
1 Delete Matrix - Delete all digimons on the field regardless of side, brown
1 Fortune Gate - Switch total AP/HP with your opponent, brown
1 Misery Gate - Choose 3 cards in opponent deck and put them in trash, brown
1 Desired Access - Throw all cards in your hand and withdraw 6 cards from deck, brown
2 Revival Charge - Return all cards in trash to deck, brown
4 Charge Terminal - Draw 2 cards from deck, brown

xx/xx denotes AP/HP, and all are program cards so S-Energy(color) doesn't matter...ah, it matters, if my opponents wanna play on it...

Alright, here's my game file:

time played 131 hours and counting.

Total bit 2387781 and counting

Kotemon lv 94
HP 7005
MP 4260

Renamon lv91
Hp 5902
MP 5416

and I left patemon at level 1 cause he sucks ass and takes too damn long to level up, plus resting at the inn is cheaper since I have one less digimon in my team. And now, my deck:

omg what's with that insane level of your digimons? the grinding time gotta be some real hell huh... i just reached level 75 for 3 digimons, and 45 for all others.

and hey, that's some delicious deck there...i wanna duel you...

That's why the clock time for my game is over 131 hours. I just beat the various numemons at their locations and span around in a circle. I just listened to some music or just turned the volume off whilst I was grinding the levels. Although it really is pointless besides having something to brag about. I just beat galacticmon yesterday with my kotemon lv96 and it was pretty hilarious.

so...you were just quoting him to see if it worked?

uh...new way of increasing post count?

btw...now that i think about it...why the game was cut?

What do you mean by cut?

sidenote: im getting bored trying to restore my old team... anyone care to give me a place where I can power level... currently headed for genbu city and I now officially suck at the card game :(

the numemons at the jungle temple, in the south sector.

By cut I mean...well, in the original jap ver, after you kick Galacticmon's sorry mecha ass, you're able to continue on and fight for the world championship. And that's why I think it's weird that part was removed in the American release....

I hear the tamers in the league are super strong too...
