Royal Knight Requirements [Cyber Sleuth Side]

[ZarexJaeger]

So, a friend and I were wondering if the Royal Knights have the same requirements as on the PS4 or was it lifted?

Bumped because I am also wondering this. For those who have got far enough into the original Cyber Sleuth, are the Royal Knight digivolutions still locked until you get to the point in the story where you defeat them like the PS4 version or has that been lifted like in Hacker's Memory?

I understand that most of the digivolution requirements for the original have been altered in the Complete Edition to be consistent with Hacker's Memory but not sure if that is the case for digivolutions that were originally locked by story (although I did notice that Hackmon no longer requires the Steel Will item for digivolution in the original...)

No evolutions in Complete Edition CS require completing specific quests directly. Some require a particular item (such as Hackmon or Flamedramon), and at least one requires HM clear data, but nothing says "complete x quest". That includes all of the Royal Knights, they are all available from the beginning except magnamon who requires the Digiegg of Miracles.

Hackmon in particular, I distinctly remember it requiring Steel Will early in the game. After acquiring Steel Will however, the requirement is no longer listed when trying to evolve. I wonder if that might be a very specific case though.

Well, the Spirits still do require their respective items on the CS side of the story so, maybe they just added new items to CS?

From a discussion elsewhere, no they didn't. There are a few Digivolutions and the Spirit Items that are exclusive to the other story.

Exclusive to Hacker's Memory:
-Arcadiamon Line
-Hudiemon
-Spirit Digimon

Armor Digimon items, by comparison, are obtainable via side-quests in Cyber Sleuth and not just Hacker's Memory.

Well, that is annoying then. Also, could you please give me a link to that discussion?
