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.”
