Questions about Month 1 Edition

[Smugass Braixen-Chan]

1. Is Guilmon worth using? I don't even know who that is, and I think he looks like Edgy Red Agumon. But if they're selling 1 mon as a promo, then I'm concerned that there aren't enough Mons in this game without him.

Edit: Expanding upon Question 1 - Could I pick , Gatomon, Biyomon , Gabumon or Renamon as my partner instead (Since those are my favourites)
And/Or is this a party based game like Cybersleuths, in which case I could probably see myself adding Guilmon to the team.

2. Does the "HP Support Equipment" break the game? I've had bad experiences with Cheat Item DLC in JRPGs completely sucking the fun out of the game. So my assumption is that it's going to be a glorified God-Mode cheat.

Guilmon is a pretty good "free digimon". Free as in it won't have any dialogue or story involvement inside the visual novel. Much like all the other free roaming digimon you can catch on the way. The game itself has 114 digimon, 117 if you get Guilmon and its evolution line. WarGrowlmon (the mega of Guilmon) in particual has a handy AoE blast attack that can make battles pretty easy.

All partner digimon are permanently chosen beforehand. For the character you're playing it's always Agumon. Gatomon, Biyomon, Gabumon and Renamon can be catched during free battles though. So yes, you have party and turn-based strategic combat on a grid field.

The so-called HP support equipment is a single crystal that generates a little bit of health each turn. Useful, but not game breaking. Generally you will find more than enough food or medicine to never run out of healing.

Guilmon was the main guys digimon in the 3rd Anime series Digimon Tamer so yeah its like with Pokemon and its starters many people like it because its one of those Digimon that is featured a long time in the Anime.

Also its Final Form is one of those Digimon Knight guys that they showed as something super special in some games and I think in the Anime as well.

but thats pretty much it ... I guess most people properly hardly use the extra Mons anyways except for fights where you can't have your friends digimons with you.

War growlmon is a perfect/ultimate stage not a mega

Guilmon is good in that you can get his Ultimate before you start most Ultimates in Free Battles, and he has a powerful AoE at a time when many of the Digimon you encounter are lacking them. Yes, you can always use slabs to evolve other Digimon to Ultimate too, but until you start frequently encountering Monzaemon and MagnaAngemon, it's a waste to use the slabs on any other Ultimates besides WarGrowlmon. Especially given you can recruit most of them fairly easily.

WarGrowlmon and Dukemon/Gallantmon have very powerful AoE attacks, and even WarGrowlmon's regular attack is a small AoE.

Guilmon is not required, but you play on playing the game early enough to get him, you might as well use him.

Actually Guilmon free digimon is a cheat. It is a strong digimon and carry you a lot of time at your first playthrough.
